		<description>&lt;b&gt;Jenn&lt;/b&gt;, it depends what your question is about this situation. If you&#039;re wondering if this is &quot;normal&quot;, it is. While some talk about the applicability of Pareto principle in affiliate marketing (i.e. that 20% of affiliates are doing 80% of work), the more frequent situation is that 5% to 10% of affiliates in a program are doing 100% of work. If (a) your affiliate program is competitive, (b) have a look at the articles on &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.amnavigator.com/blog/tag/motivate-affiliates/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;affiliate motivation I&#039;ve written here&lt;/a&gt;.

If you want to concretize the question, I&#039;m also open.</description>

This is just what I want.
I am a small manufacturer that needs to get my physical product out there, and I need to get some affiliates sending sales to me.

Can&#039;t wait to read all of this!
