Actionable Insights Newsletter – August 2023 Edition
This month, we introduce our pioneering original research paper and brand-new podcast series! Plus, Gen3 news and industry updates.
Gen3’s Pioneering State-of-Nation Report on the Affiliate Marketing Industry
We recently launched our industry’s first multi-perspective research study, “High Performance and High Demand. The reinvigorated, full-funnel potential of affiliate marketing”.
The research compares consumer reliance on affiliate placements against advertisers’ use and prioritization of affiliate marketing in the omnichannel media mix.
Gen3’s Actionable Insights Podcast
From inside the Gen3 studio, we are thrilled to present Gen3’s first podcast series.
Hosted by Kerry Curran, the Actionable Insights series features prominent industry leaders who generously share their wisdom, equipping you with more actionable insights that can further empower your affiliate marketing journey.
Episode 1: The Evolution of Affiliate Marketing
In the first episode, Kerry uncovers the ‘Evolution of Affiliate’ with special guests Michael McNerney, founder of Martech Record and Adam Weiss, former SVP of the Rakuten Affiliate Network.
Episode 2: Behind the Research
We’re joined by London Research to discuss the background and planning of our first-to-market original research paper exploring the affiliate marketing landscape.
