How do I get affiliates for a profitable product?

[kev314]

I've never recruited affiliates before and would like some advice. I have a product that is selling well(1-2k per month net) with only adwords for marketing, it may be able to generate 20-50k per month if I can get some affiliates. How does one go about finding and recruiting affiliates?
Here are some product details:
Price: $197
Commission: 60%
Commission amount: $118.20
Conversion rate: 3%-4%
Audience: Adwords users that want advanced Adwords techniques

I do not want to mention the product name here to alleviate any concern of spamming.

To successful affiliates(>1k net per month):
Do these numbers look good?
What is your process for choosing products to promote?

Sign up with an affiliate promotion company, like ClickBank, Azoogle, Commission Junction, etc.

I am signed up with clickbank, but not Azoogle, Commission Junction, or any other. The numbers that clickbank posts for the product are way off i.e. clickbank shows $18.30$/sale and it should be $118.20$/sale. I've sold 2-3 each week for the past 5 weeks. Maybe there is a big lag in updating the stats?

You need to go with Commission Junction. Also, if you want to get affiliates you need to pay for every lead (or trial if it is software you are selling). Paying for every sale is just too competetive. Any affiliate would rather focus on getting the customer in your doors instead of actually making the sale for you.

CJ is very pricey but you get what you pay for with something like this.

As for the problem with clickbank I would try to get that sorted with their customer service reps (I don't think they have the best track record of customer service though...)
