What are Affiliate Managers Earning?

Posted by Shawn Collins on February 27th, 2007 | 0 Comments

On July 29th 2005 you answered a question with regard to compensating an affiliate manager. How different are those numbers now?

The post from July 2005 was based on the AffStat 2005 Report. In that report, I asked the affiliate managers, “What is your annual salary (including incentives and bonuses)?”. The results were as follows.

Less than $40k 21%
$40k to $50k 14%
$50k to $60k 12%
$60k to $70k 6%
$70k to $80k 13%
$80k to $90k 8%
$90k to $100k 6%
$100k to $110k 4%
$110k to $120k 6%
More than $120k 10%

The latest AffStat report had a bit of a different methodology for affiliate manager earnings. This time around, I broke out the data for affiliate managers earning a salary and outsourced affiliate managers working on retainer.

The salaried affiliate manager figures came out as follows for the AffStat 2007 Report. The salaries include any incentives and/or bonuses received by the affiliate managers.

Less than $40k 24%
$40k to $50k 24%
$50k to $60k 11%
$60k to $70k 3%
$70k to $80k 12%
$80k to $90k 2%
$90k to $100k 10%
$100k to $120k 4%
More than $120k 10%

Outsourced affiliate managers earned the following in monthly compensation. These figures include a percent of transactions if applicable.

< $2k 13%
$2k to $4k 17%
$4k to $6k 22%
$6k to $8k 13%
$8k to $10k 4%
> $10k 31%
