In our recent blog post, we identified 4 important steps to consider before launching your first affiliate program. They are:
#1. Research competition
#2. Outline your strategy
#3. Pick a platform (plugin)
#4. Find your first partners
Did we miss any?

@winchandplummet Hey @winchandplummet! From what I see you've contacted us via our contact form two times. Mihai got back to you both instances, on November 7 and just now.
Please check both your inbox and spam folders for a reply from us.

Our most requested feature, affiliate social sharing, is now live.
Check out the link below to learn what it does and how you can activate it for your affiliate program.
A big thank you to everyone that offered feedback on this functionality! 🙏

@SaraMouraTweets Even though we'd like to release all features for free, to be able to support the project on the long run we do need to have great paid features.
We don't believe we'll have any extreme changes in our free vs pro offering for the foreseeable future.
@zeeshanraza We're looking to onboard a couple more affiliate partners that wish to either promote us through media channels or recommend us to their clients. Would you be interested?
@flowdee@flowdee That's the only admin notice we display in global scope. We're considering removing it and moving the functionality in the setup wizard.
Until then, given that we're not certain about this move, we'll be limiting it to our plugin's pages. Thank you for the feedback!
@flowdee Oh you, stop it!
Jokes aside, thank you so much! If you believe something can be improved, let us know. There's always room for getting better.
As a WooCommerce store or membership site owner, you are probably familiar with coupons.
But, have you ever used them in your affiliate program?
No? Perfect!
Here's a quick walkthrough on why and how to do it:

Google reCAPTCHA might not be the greatest feature added to SliceWP, but it sure is useful for protecting against spammers.
If you don't have it already enabled, we recommend you do. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to do it.

@pmproplugin Well, it took us quite a while to have the documentation article ready (been working on a lot of new features), but we believe it was worth the wait. Let us know what you think.

We've just released version 1.0.9! Here are two of the new cool things:
- new integration, with Paid Memberships Pro (@pmproplugin)
- a complex notes system, so you can now leave admin notes for affiliates, commissions, payouts and payments

Your goal with running an affiliate program should be, besides increasing sales and revenue, to create brand trust.
Through their promotional efforts, affiliates not only bring you sales, but also endorse your brand.

Now off we go to read our articles out loud and fix them! 🚀

Not everything is always peachy, so there can be downsides to running an affiliate program.
Here's a few of the most common ones and ways on how to address them:

Something I'm experimenting with. Using @pmproplugin and @SliceWP_ to sell a yearly membership to just my thoughts. We'll see :)

Happy to announce that Paid Member Subscriptions integrates with @SliceWP_ allowing you to create and manage your own #affiliate program directly from your #WordPress#membership site: https://t.co/ctg4CPI6Kg
If you're looking to drive up sales, run a discount code campaign with your affiliates.
It's best to use this strategy sparingly: either when you launch a new product or when you want to reach a new audience (think influencer partnerships).
See how:

Due to high amounts of spam we received lately, we decided to abandon the free offer. If you're in a tough spot with your business and need our plugin, please reach out directly and we'll see how we can help you out!
Last month we decided that we wanted to help somehow with the COVID-19 crisis and thus made SliceWP free for a two month period.
3 weeks in and, unfortunately, we have to abandon this cause.
