Affillate Partnership Chart

If you're using Trackdesk, it might reduce the need for a separate chart, as Trackdesk will track and store most of the necessary information for each affiliate partnership, including performance metrics, links, commission rates, and payouts. Trackdesk's dashboard can give you a consolidated view of your affiliate program, making it easier to monitor partnerships directly within the platform.

However, there are a few reasons you might still consider a separate chart or summary:

High-Level Overview: A separate chart provides a quick, customizable snapshot of all partnerships, which can be useful for strategic planning or sharing insights with stakeholders without diving into Trackdesk's detailed reports.

Customized Metrics: If there are specific metrics or data fields you want to track that aren’t supported by Trackdesk (like partnership tiers, non-standard terms, or multi-product associations), a chart could supplement this.

Cross-Platform Tracking: If you plan to manage external affiliate links from other networks or platforms alongside Trackdesk, a chart can help you track everything in one place for better visibility.

For most daily operations, Trackdesk should cover your tracking needs well. A separate chart could simply be a high-level summary, refreshed periodically, rather than a detailed tracking tool.

es, creating a chart or database listing all partnerships will be essential for managing and optimizing your affiliate network. This chart will help you keep track of each partnership's details, performance metrics, and any specific terms or commission structures, ensuring you have a clear view of your income sources and potential growth areas.
