When does affiliate management software for small business become necessary?
What finally made you switch away from spreadsheets? Was it tracking, payouts, reporting, recruiting affiliates or something else?
Im helping run a small business and were starting to get more serious about affiliate partnerships. Right now a lot of the tracking is basically spreadsheets, checking orders manually and trying to keep track of who gets what commission.
It works while there are only a few partners but I can already see it becoming messy as the program grows. Im looking into affiliate management software but im not sure where the line is between this saves me hours and this is just another subscription i have to manage.
