How the Numbers Work

01

Commission Per Sale

AOV ร— Commission Rate

You only pay affiliates when they make a sale. Unlike paid ads, there's no upfront spend โ€” every commission is a sale already made.

02

Affiliate CAC

(Monthly Commissions + $1,000 mgmt) รท Monthly Orders

Your true cost per acquired customer through affiliates. Because payment is performance-based, this typically beats paid acquisition by 30โ€“60%.

03

Break-Even on Setup

$2,000 รท Monthly CAC Savings

How many months until the CAC savings you generate each month have paid back the one-time $2,000 setup cost. Most brands see this in 2โ€“4 months.

04

Annual Net

Annual Revenue โˆ’ Commissions โˆ’ Management โˆ’ Setup

Total incremental profit the affiliate channel adds in year one after all costs. Year two onward removes the $2,000 setup, increasing your ROI significantly.
