About the role
We are looking for a proactive VA to help recruit high-value US health, wellness and lifestyle publishers to our affiliate programme.
We are an established at-home health testing business, Check My Body Health, and already have an active US affiliate programme.
You will initially work through a focused list of 12 target publishers. Your role is to research each publisher, identify relevant commercial opportunities, find the right contact, carry out personalised outreach, follow up and help get successful publishers recruited and live.
Day-to-day work will include:
Researching US health, wellness and lifestyle publishers
Finding relevant articles where our products could be promoted
Identifying competitors already featured by publishers
Finding the correct affiliate, partnerships, commercial or editorial contact
Finding contact details and LinkedIn profiles
Writing and sending personalised outreach
Managing follow-ups and responses
Helping interested publishers join our affiliate programme
Helping get publishers live with correctly tracked affiliate links
Identifying additional opportunities from publishers once recruited
Maintaining an organised spreadsheet/CRM of prospects, contacts, outreach and results
This is not a general admin or data-entry role. We are looking for someone who can identify a genuine commercial opportunity and turn it into a conversation with the right person.
If the initial project is successful, this will become an ongoing role involving larger weekly lists of US publishers.
VA requirements:
- Excellent written English
- Strong internet research skills
- Excellent attention to detail
- Confident writing professional, personalised emails
- Highly organised and able to manage follow-ups
- Proactive and able to work independently
- Comfortable researching US websites and businesses
- Able to identify decision makers and relevant contacts
- Experience with affiliate marketing, publisher outreach, partnerships or digital PR is preferred
- Experience with affiliate networks such as Impact or Awin is a strong advantage
- Previous experience recruiting affiliates or publishers is a strong advantage
Please provide examples of relevant affiliate, publisher outreach or partnership work in your application.
