Affiliate Marketing Affiliate marketing, in which a business
rewards its affiliates for bringing new customers
Adidas was also watchful of what it paid out to affiliates. Instead of giving every affiliate an 8-10% commission for posting, affiliates who came in closer to midway through a campaign would get closer to 1% or 2%.
affiliate marketing value went up approximately 60% and the conversion rate was up 57% year-over-year. The company was able to add more than 150 new affiliates to its lineup over a couple of months.
Some examples of affiliate marketing work by adidas Group included:
Putting retail offers on affiliate websites to drive people to bricks-and-mortar stores.
Giving a welcome gift to new affiliate marketers, whether they came to adidas or adidas found them.
Rolling out storefronts managed by Reebok on CrossFit gym websites equipping gym owners with the ability to offer free shipping and setting up the brand page for them.
Taking over 20-30 websites with avid soccer audiences during the World Cup and paying them on a performance basis.
