Coronavirus has had a capacious social and economic impact on the world, consumer behaviour has drastically changed. The whole world population has had to make adjustments in their personal and professional lives.

Affiliate marketers are no exception to the rule, as we all try and figure out what the long-term impact of the pandemic will be on the economy.

Online retail has been one of the constantly changing industries recorded during the pandemic. Recorded highs due to the panic buying of certain products such as food and cleaning supplies and a decrease as people cut back on their consumer spending to combat the uncertainty that precedes them. However, the long term impact on overall online retail and e-commerce remains to be seen.

The pandemic has set course for agility and flexibility. As priorities change on a daily and even on an hourly basis, as one of the best affiliate programmes in South Africa, we know the importance of keeping abreast of change all the time. We have put together strategies that affiliate marketers can adopt to rise above the constant changes.

We are here for you

Aff_coza’s account management teams are continuously monitoring network trends and data to infer what’s working and what’s not so you can optimize your campaigns better.

Our account managers are looking at data and making recommendations based on opportunities that arise as changes to the Lockdown and our business are made. These shifts often result in a change to KPIs, hence the importance of constant communication with your account manager so that they can help you identify new opportunities.

Test different campaigns from your preferred

Certain campaigns might present a better opportunity to connect with people who are shifting their content consumption habits. We have seen a drastic increase in CottonOn and Netflorist since restrictions on e-commerce have been lifted. 

Our account experts say that being open to testing new campaigns that you might not otherwise work with regularly, such as e-commerce which is seeing spikes in traffic right now, could provide you with opportunities to get in front of consumers who are ready and willing to engage and use your affiliate links while also potentially introducing you to new audiences.

Consumer behaviours are changing as such you as an affiliate marketer need to change your short and long term goals.
