Recruiting partners

Sign in as a brand and open Recruit partners in the sidebar. You need a program set up first — Recruit uses your program name, commission and apply link in every pitch.

There are two ways to search:

• Keyword scan — type a search like best standing desks and click Scan. AFFN checks the pages ranking on Google for it.
• Paste links — paste up to 15 article URLs (one per line) you already know, such as review posts or gift guides, and click Check these pages.

For each page AFFN reads the content and reports the site, title, author, any contact email it can find, and the affiliate networks linked on the page (Amazon, Impact, CJ, ShareASale, Awin and more).

Every prospect gets a tag so you know how to approach it:

• Competitor Hijack — the page promotes competitors. Pitch a better offer.
• Commission Upgrade — they use low-paying programs (like Amazon). Lead with your higher commission.
• Missing Link — relevant content with no affiliate links yet. Easy first program.
• Already Promoting — they already mention you. Invite them to your program so you can track them.

1. 1
   Set your offer in the Commission to offer in pitches box (e.g. 15% per sale).
2. 2
   Click Write pitch on a prospect. AI writes a short, personal email referencing their page.
3. 3
   Edit if you like, then Copy or Open in email. The pitch includes your partner apply link (your branded portal if you have one).

AFFN never sends emails for you — you stay in control of every message.

Click Save to add a prospect to your pipeline, then move them through discovered → contacted → applied → active (or declined). Saved prospects are private to your brand.

When a prospect applies, they appear in your partner applications like anyone else — you still approve who can promote you.

The Demo Brand account shows sample keyword results so it can be explored freely. Real brand accounts get live Google results. Pasted links always analyze the real pages.

Private or local addresses are blocked, and some sites block automated visits — if a page returns nothing, open it yourself and look for a contact page.
