Affiliate Marketing Manager
RemoteRemoteMarketing$1k–$2k/moFull-time
About the Role
Visibility Labs is an AI SEO company that helps brands get recommended more often in ChatGPT and other AI assistants. The Affiliate Marketing Manager role involves owning the pitching and relationship side of getting clients featured in the specific articles AI assistants cite when recommending products. The role focuses on editorial outreach rather than bulk outreach or paying a publication’s commerce team for placement. Visibility Labs provides the exact target articles AI assistants are citing, and the job is to turn these targets into real conversations, real placements, and lasting partnerships.
Why This Role Is Different
This role emphasizes precision over volume. It requires studying a publication, finding the right writer or editor, and building a pitch for that one person. Winning placements comes through editorial efforts rather than relying on mass outreach or payment. The focus is on earning mentions through merit rather than paying for them. Success is measured by placements that get clients cited by AI assistants like ChatGPT, not clicks, conversions, or affiliate revenue.
What You'll Do
1. **Affiliate & Publisher Outreach**: Turn listicles and other sources into real conversations and placements. Contact potential affiliates directly through email and affiliate platforms (e.g., Impact, CJ Affiliate, ShareASale, Rakuten, Awin, PartnerStack).
2. **Negotiation & Deal-Making**: Negotiate commission rates, flat placement fees, hybrid deals, and placement terms. Structure deals that work for both the client and the publisher.
3. **Onboarding & Program Management**: Onboard new affiliates and partners into your clients’ affiliate program. Manage ongoing affiliate relationships and keep partners active and engaged.
4. **Client Coordination**: Coordinate product-sample fulfillment between clients and affiliates/reviewers so partners can actually test and write about the product. Serve as the liaison between client and publication throughout the placement.
5. **Setting Up Affiliate Programs from Scratch**: For clients without an affiliate network in place, help them build one: recommend a platform, set up tracking, define a commission structure, and draft program terms.
What You Bring
- **Required**:
- 3+ years in affiliate, partnership, or influencer marketing, ideally managing programs.
- Hands-on experience with major affiliate networks and platforms (Impact, CJ, ShareASale, Rakuten, Awin, etc.).
- Proven track record negotiating commission rates and placement terms.
- Comfortable making the ask and closing the deal.
- Experience setting up an affiliate program from scratch (or strong confidence you could).
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
- Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage many partners and clients in parallel.
- Comfort working alongside an automated system and trusting (and refining) the targets it surfaces.
- **Preferred**:
- Agency experience juggling multiple clients at once.
- Existing relationships with publishers, editors, or affiliate managers.
