Are you asking if affiliates are open to learning from affiliate managers? If so, those that have a need to learn - normally do.

M, I’m not sure I get the question. Are you asking if affiliates are open to learning from affiliate managers? If so, those that have a need to learn – normally do. But not all do; so you want to respect this too (everything depends on the maturity level of the affiliate).

As an affiliate manager for a CPA network, I have made a few of the above mistakes. I actually encountered mistake #7 just yesterday. I made a mistake and then owned up to my mistake but then wondered if admitting the mistake made me look uncredible. So, I still haven't heard from the affiliate today. Hopefully he's still interested in working with me. I really do believe what you say about learning from your affiliates. Do affiliates see this the same way? Great article.

As an affiliate manager, I often keep a running list of checks and balances on myself to make sure that I am doing the best possible job I can, while at the same time staying very "human" and realistic in my approach. We should never be beyond reproach, nor should we treat others in a way that we would not expect to be treated. I am always open to what the affiliates I work with have to say and do, and certainly try to learn something from them every day. Thank you for the reminder. :) Great information.
