I'm confused, following the path to sign up leads me to a CJ sign up link?

I thought PartnerCentric was a network like CJ?

[Larwee]

-Edwin-, PartnerCentric is outsourced affiliate program management and consulting.

[Linda Buquet]

Hi Edwin,

Yes, Larry is right. PC does management and all the programs they manage are on different affiliate networks. MOST are on CJ and a few lately are on Performics and some are Indies. CJ manages programs on whatever network the merchant is on.

Okay, but if i have questions regarding payouts, etc then this is all to be directed to CJ right?

I'm still finding it confusing, Partnercentric being an affiliate management and consulting firm, isn't CJ exactly that as well?

I have applied through CJ - logged into my account and applied and got auto approved right away.

But should i have any questions, etc then CJ would direct me to Partnercentric?

[Linda Buquet]

No, no... But I understand the confusion...

Some people call affiliate networks, affiliate management companies, which is a misnomer. Networks MAINLY do the tech part and create the infrastructure for tracking, etc. (In RARE cases some companies pay CJ an extra 6,000 a month to also do the hands-on management of the program, but it's pretty rare.)

The affiliate manager, in this case the OUTSOURCED affiliate manager, PartnerCentric - they are the people part! They are the ones that create the offers, the newsletters, answer questions and support the affiliates.

There are 2 PC managers handling this program. They are both highly experienced and great to work with. Tracie the Program Manager should be your 1st point of contact as she handles all the day-today affiliate support. Here is their contact info.

Thanks for clearing that up
