CHALLENGE
THE GEN3 APPROACH
Our team took a collaborative approach to overhaul the existing commission framework. We transitioned from bespoke commissions to a click attribution-based model. This new structure considered two factors: the type of package purchased (Silver, Gold, Platinum) and the affiliate’s position in the sales funnel (low, mid, high). The revised commissions were as follows:
By package: Silver – $25, Gold – $50, Platinum – $75.
By clickstream position: Last touch – $25, Middle touch – $50, First touch – $75.
THE RESULTS
- Affiliates, who previously earned a flat rate of $50 per order, could now earn up to $150 per order, incentivizing them to promote higher-tier packages.
- A top affiliate’s earnings skyrocketed from $2,500 to approximately $7,500 monthly under the new model.
- Month-over-Month affiliate commissions soared by 44.7%.
- For advertisers, this new model provided a clearer insight into each affiliate’s value, distinguishing those driving higher-tier package sales and identifying funnel-specific performance.
