Hey, Michael.

When you say 'JV Manager', do you mean ...

... JV Broker that doubles as a launch time affiliate manager?

... Full time affiliate manager that acts as a JV Broker, as well?

As a JV broker serving double duty as a launch time AM, I've negotiated 2.5 - 10% (depending on ticket) of all sales except those actually made by the merchant, whether I bring them on, or not ... as it's my job to inform and motivate all affiliates.

If you're looking for a long term affiliates manager, sales will be spread out over time ... so you might have to jack those numbers up a little.

A good place to find experienced affiliate managers is ... http://www.affiliatemanager.net/forums/ and http://www.abestweb.com/ .

Best,

Mike
