Today is the public launch of ClickGo - A Modern Affiliate Tracking Platform, which is based on the ideals of efficiency, intuitiveness and ease of use without sacrificing functionality.

https://t.co/Mxchje2I6D  is the culmination of years of development work and decades of industry experience. I have the privilege of teaming up with an "all-star" team of affiliate and performance marketing industry veterans to bring this industry that I love, what I truly believe to be the best, easiest to use, yet complete platform to manage affiliates, campaigns, advertisers, creators, and partners of all sorts.

Introducing: https://t.co/FzzskGCwRN

ClickGo is a modern performance marketing tracking platform for affiliate programs - built by industry veterans, and forged by real-world use cases.

ClickGo wasn’t imagined in a boardroom. It’s a culmination of decades of industry experience, and years of development work. ClickGo was created by industry leaders who relied on it to win and scale. Every dashboard, report, feature and page was built upon years of hands-on experience to provide the highest level of efficiency, accuracy and scalability for any marketing program.

This isn’t another generic, legacy tracking platform. It’s battle tested marketing infrastructure built with intention, and proven at scale

ClickGo at its core highlights intuitiveness, ease of use, and the mantra that no Click should ever Go to waste - but be easily routed and monetized.

Track more revenue. Eliminate risk. Scale with certainty.

When we say ClickGo is built by industry veterans, we mean it.

This week we're spotlighting Shaun Hall, our Chief Growth Officer and one of the most decorated relationship builders in performance marketing.

Shaun has been in the affiliate marketing industry for 15+ years, and he's spent them in senior seats at some of the most respected names in the space. VP of Revenue at Diablo Media. Director of Advertising Demand Partnerships at RevContent. VP of Sales at HitPath. VP of Affiliate Relations at O'Reilly Media. Across networks, platforms, and agencies, Shaun has consistently been the person high-level companies trust to drive growth.

Shaun has operated across nearly every seat in this industry, in every aspect of this industry, affiliate, advertiser, network, platform, which means he understands the full performance marketing equation from the inside out.

Thats exactly why Shaun is a perfect fit for ClickGo and our customers.

In 2019, his contributions were formally recognized with being nominated for a "Professional Of The Year" AFFY. As well as winning the AFFY Award in Las Vegas, one of the most prestigious honors in affiliate marketing.

Today Shaun brings all of that to ClickGo as Chief Growth Officer, driving how we grow, who we serve, and how we show up for the operators who need a modern platform built by people who actually understand their world, and have been in it.

When we say ClickGo is built by industry veterans, we mean it.

This week we're spotlighting Flavio Cardoso, our Senior Platform Engineer and one of the most technically decorated engineers we could have put on this team.

Flavio has been building scalable, secure digital infrastructure for over 20 years. His stack runs deep, but what separates Flavio isn't just the breadth of what he knows. It's the scale at which he's applied it.

You know those ClickGo reports that don't require you to open 8 different tabs to see data (looking at you Legacy platforms 👀 ), but rather see everything in one view with a few clicks?

How about the Performance & Analytics page visually charting your traffic quality, plotting individual publisher Traffic Quality lines vs the Network average? How about the Dashboard that loads the prior 30 days of data in under 1 second?

Yeah, thats Flavio.

Along the way, Flavio earned multiple industry recognitions in Brazil, including iBest TOP3 recognition - twice. iBest is one of the most competitive internet industry awards in Latin America, and placing in the top three is a meaningful signal that the work gets noticed.

He also holds 11+ licenses and certifications across areas ranging from cybersecurity to systems administration. That combination of technical depth, industry recognition, and proven impact ultimately led to Flavio being recognized by the United States under the extraordinary ability category.

Today, Flavio brings that same extraordinary skill set to ClickGo as our Senior Platform Engineer, focused on backend architecture, infrastructure, performance, and scalability - making sure that when you're tracking millions of clicks, nothing breaks, the data is easy to access, and everything stays FAST.

When we say ClickGo is built by industry veterans, we mean it.

This week we're spotlighting Joey Hinkle, our Chief Strategy Officer and one of the most experienced affiliate network operators in performance marketing.

Joey has been in the performance marketing industry since 2013. Over the past 13+ years he's worked at nearly every level of the affiliate ecosystem, but the highlight of that run is hard to overlook.

As Network Director at Express Revenue, Joey helped lead the affiliate network for over six years , and walked it all the way to a successful acquisition.

From there he joined MaxWeb as VP of Sales, one of the most respected affiliate networks in the health and nutraceutical space, spending nearly three years building high-value advertiser and publisher relationships at the top of the industry with a "household" name affiliate program.

Today Joey brings all of that to ClickGo as Chief Strategy Officer, driving how we grow, who we serve, and how we position the platform for the operators who need it most.

[Jake Kauffman @CEO_Jake]

There’s also a huge flaw in this widely accepted theory. Not only would it be impossible to get the same center seat each time, but he’s been there since before OnLocation was a thing. And OnLocation (and WWE travel packages before OnLocation was a thing) didn’t always do every show, RAW, etc.

When we say ClickGo is built by industry veterans, we mean it.

This week we're spotlighting Chad French, one of our co-founders and one of the engineering minds behind some of the most respected infrastructure and builds in affiliate marketing.

Chad has been in the affiliate marketing industry since 2005. By 2008, he'd seen enough of how things were being built to know he could do it better, so he founded PeerFly and architected the entire platform from the ground up himself.

Over the next 11 years, PeerFly became an award-winning affiliate network, drove over $100M in sales for clients, and set a benchmark for what a well-built performance marketing platform could actually look like.

Chad brings over two decades at the exact intersection of engineering, product, and affiliate operations.

Today, Chad brings all of that to ClickGo as a Founding Principal Product Engineer, working on the core systems powering tracking, attribution, reporting, and fraud prevention.

@TrafficBrokerX When I ran a network I had them only sign our paperwork, sent with a personal guarantee, ACH/CC authorization form, and drivers license upload spot.

[Jake Kauffman @CEO_Jake]

@themikegustin @TrafficBrokerX I’m a fan of the platform @TheClikNetwork uses😜

[ClickGo @ClickGo_]

Still on a platform built a decade ago? Come find us in one week at @leadscon - Booth 752

The affiliate industry has been stuck on legacy platforms long enough, and ClickGo was built from the ground up to change that.

Clean. Fast. Intuitive. Without sacrificing functionality.

Built by industry veterans, for the way modern networks, agencies, and advertisers actually operate today.

Coffee’s on us too — we’re sponsoring the Conversion Café ☕

[Jake Kauffman @CEO_Jake]

@Samuel_Roux_ You should use @ClickGo_ for it.

[ClickGo @ClickGo_]

Launching an affiliate program? The platform you pick will make or break it. Not everyone’s picking the right tracker. Skip the bloat. Run it on ClickGo. https://t.co/GxRj1f252U

[ClickGo @ClickGo_]

Vegas, we're coming.

ClickGo is officially sponsoring and exhibiting at LeadsCon Las Vegas, April 22–24 at the MGM Grand Hotel.

If you're in performance marketing and you've ever felt like your tracking platform was built a decade ago and never caught up, then we should talk.

Come see us at Booth 752, or grab a coffee on us, and let us show you what modern affiliate tracking looks like.

[Jake Kauffman @CEO_Jake]

I truly believe this industry has been overdue for something fresh, clean, and built for how teams actually work today.

[ClickGo @ClickGo_]

What an incredible first conference for ClickGo!

Affiliate Takeover did not disappoint, and thanks to the many conversations we had in Miami, we’re starting this week off as energetic as ever.

To anyone who stopped by the booth, chatted with us, got a massage at the massage station, or has already taken a post-show demo, we appreciate you.

If we connected with you at the show, let’s keep it going! Shaun, Joey, Chad, and Jake are eager to continue conversations with all of you.

[ClickGo @ClickGo_]

Just one more day until we get to see everyone at Affiliate Takeover! Stop by Booth B16, Jake Kauffman, Shaun Hall, Joey Hinkle and Chad French will be around and ready to connect.

We are also sponsoring the massage area this year. Why? Because tracking platforms shouldn't give you a headache. They should feel easy, clean, and just... work.

That's what ClickGo is all about. Modern tracking built for how the industry actually operates today, intuitive, efficient, and backed by people who've been in the trenches for decades alongside you.

If you've ever thought "there has to be a better way to run this" or want to re-claim your time spent buried in bloated menu options, come talk to us.

[Jake Kauffman @CEO_Jake]

See you in Miami

[ClickGo @ClickGo_]

ClickGo will be at Affiliate Takeover in Miami, March 17–19! Right here in our backyard of South Florida.

We’ll have a booth on the floor (B16) and we’re also sponsoring the massage zone.

So if you’re attending, come say hi, check out ClickGo, and grab a massage on us.

And while you’re sitting there enjoying a massage… just remember:

This is exactly what tracking should feel like.

Smooth. Relaxing. And definitely not painful.

See you in Miami.
