WHEN TO BRING IN GROWANN

Does this match your situation?

The program needs a reset

You want the partner mix, offer, and operating priorities reviewed before adding more activity.

BEFORE WE WORK TOGETHER

Questions worth answering.

What does an affiliate management agency do?

It runs the agreed operating work of your affiliate program: partner recruitment, onboarding, activation, communications, campaigns, commission reviews, and performance reporting. Growann focuses on B2B SaaS buying journeys and relevant partner audiences.

How is management different from consulting?

Management includes ongoing execution. Consulting provides diagnosis, strategy, and guidance for your internal team. Choose consulting when you have the capacity to implement; choose management when you need an owner for the operating work.

Can you take over an existing program?

Yes. We start by reviewing the current offer, partners, platform, tracking, and available data. The assessment determines which parts to retain and which need attention.

Which affiliate platforms can you work with?

Growann has experience with PartnerStack, impact.com, Everflow, Rewardful, and Tapfiliate. Platform access, integrations, and tracking requirements are reviewed during scoping. Nick Cotter is a PartnerStack Certified Partner — Bronze.

How are fees and scope determined?

Management is scoped around the program’s starting point, partner types, markets, campaign needs, and your internal capacity. The proposal defines responsibilities, fee structure, and reporting. Ask for a written scope before deciding.

How soon can we judge progress?

The assessment identifies what can be measured and which dependencies affect delivery. Early operating indicators and customer outcomes are reviewed separately; a B2B sales cycle can delay revenue evidence. We agree checkpoints during scoping rather than promise a fixed result date.
