Hinweis der Redaktion

  1. Key is to talk about why these 3 territories have been chosen, key locations for skype hence they are a priority for the program. Can’t just use a blanket approach and assume what works well in UK will be the same for other territories. Important to look at the variances between different affiliate models as to which work best in certain territories, but also need to consider each market from a consumer perspective and how that will affect strategy.Important to look at the variances between markets to roll out a localised approach to the affiliate strategyInsight from an affiliate marketing and consumer perspective
  2. Russia is poised to become the largest e-commerce market in Europe by 2018, if it maintains its current pace of growth. In September 2011, Russia overtook Germany as the European country with the most Internet users. In a December 2011 poll half of Russian urbanites said that they used the Internet at least once a day.The growth of Russia’s online audience combined with the country’s vast territory and underdeveloped retail sector makes it ideal for online shopping. e-Commerce has been growing by between 22 percent and 30 percent a year since 2009, and is expected to continue this pace in 2012. That year, Data Insight estimates the market will be worth $12.6 billion.Source: Russian Association of Communication Agencies (AKAR); detailed data - http://www.akarussia.ru/press_centre/news/id1864 for star
  3. Talk around each difference and how we took these on board and integrated it into our program strategy
  4. New network launches, improving affiliate toolkit on a local level, international affiliate webinar, affiliate survey
  5. Affiliate hub, vouchercodes, commission increases
  6. 1 – global strategy for program overall, then ensure this is fed back into the individual territories that you are covering. For example, creative was developed to push the key Skype products, then localised for our key territories.2 – Vital to consider affiliate feedback, however as the program is global or international, its likely that the requests will be wide ranging dependent on the market. You need to get buy in from senior management to secure the resources to implement the requests from affiliates. To do this, its important to look at trends in key markets and use this to support your request for resources – eg Russia is an emerging market so there is huge scope to capture some of that market. Networks and affiliates will be able to help with forecasts to support how many sales they will drive if specific resources are made available3 – Affiliate networks are key in supporting the international program’s growth. How to get them involved and working to drive the program forward? When we were pitching for the new networks, we stipulated that we would need support from local account managers in each of the territories, and that this was part of the criteria for selection. Getting in place an SLA that clearly states the level of local support from the networks is fundamental in getting the right levels of support.4- All the insights that we covered in the first section have been vital for the program’s global growth. For example we have implemented some tenancies in UK and US but not with European affiliates, for these locations we have been researching working with a retargeting partner. When looking at new networks we had considered an in house affiliate program, but as these are not overly common in Germany we decided that going through a network was the best solution, especially as we get the support of the account managers in local territories.
