Anonymous Owner at Environ Skin Care
5.0★
Public Relations Review from Anonymous
As a national wholesale distributor for a pharmaceutical skin care line, we focus largely on B2B lead nurturing and must rely primarily on the 5WPR team to support our consumer outreach. We have been clients of 5WPR for just over a year and the team has secured nearly 3 billion impressions. The publications include national books such as Vogue, NewBeauty, Elle, StyleCaster, Well + Good, Who What Wear, Harper's Bazaar, InStyle, and many more. One of our main goals was also to secure coverage in regional publications and media to help support our medspa clients. 5WPR aligned with our strategy and has secured a multitude of smaller market publications and broadcast segments which has helped increase exposure for our amazing medspa practices and lifted product and treatment sales. 5WPR is extremely proactive in seeking out influencers that are a fit for our skin care brand and technology. When Hailey Bieber touted one of our products in a social post, 5WPR was swift at media hijacking, leveraging on the publicity and securing millions more impressions. The 5WPR team also keeps our brand in the hands of many editors with industry-relevant and thought-provoking story coverage. Our award submissions are carefully considered and submitted on our behalf. We very much appreciate the training and education that the 5WPR team has committed to as our brand has a lot of science and technology. The team has adopted our philosophy on education and continues to learn and harness ingredient and skin science to present our brand to the media. We feel that the 5WPR team is an extension of our staff family. We feel supported and very comfortable reaching out with our needs anytime. 5WPR listens to our ideas and collaborates to institute strategies that hit measurable goals.

Siege Media Reviews & Testimonials
Mckenzie Ycmat Senior Marketing Manager at Appfire
5.0★
Content Marketing Review from Mckenzie Ycmat
I've worked with Siege since 2016, and there's a reason I've brought them with me to nearly every company I've joined since. I've partnered with a lot of agencies over the years, but Siege consistently stands out because they don't just execute SEO tactics, they become an extension of your team. They take the time to understand your business, collaborate across marketing, and build content strategies that actually drive measurable results. One of the things I appreciate most is how proactive they are. They bring ideas to the table, back recommendations with data, and genuinely care about long-term growth rather than chasing quick wins. The impact they've had on my career has been significant. At multiple companies, their work has helped us grow organic traffic, strengthen our content strategy, and prove the value of marketing initiatives. They're one of the few partners I've trusted enough to advocate for repeatedly, including making sure I could continue working with them after changing jobs. The fact that I've spent nearly a decade recommending Siege internally says everything. They're one of those rare agencies that consistently exceed expectations, and I'd recommend them without hesitation to any marketing team looking for a true strategic partner.

Frequently Asked Questions About Affiliate Marketing Firms
What services do affiliate marketing companies provide?
Affiliate marketing agencies provide a broad spectrum of services aimed at elevating businesses’ commissions and revenue through a network of partners or affiliates.
While many people associate affiliates strictly with social media influencers and public figures, professional affiliate marketing agencies manage a much broader ecosystem of niche content creators, review sites, coupon and loyalty portals, and larger media publishers.
These partners promote a product or service to their established audiences, earning a commission only when a verified sale or lead is generated through their unique tracking affiliate link. An affiliate program generally follows a B2C (business-to-consumer) model, but B2B arrangements also exist.
Key services of affiliate marketing companies encompass:
Program setup
Affiliate marketing strategy
Partners recruitment
Commission management
Affiliate vetting
Performance reporting
What types of affiliate marketing are there?
Affiliate marketing is traditionally categorized by the relationship between the marketer and the product, as well as the promotional medium used. Professional affiliate engagement typically falls into three distinct categories:
Involved affiliate marketing: This model relies on firsthand experience. The affiliate uses and endorses the product through reviews and tutorials. This type has shown to deliver a better conversion rate and make the business a trusted brand.
Related affiliate marketing: The marketer operates within the same industry or niche as the product but does not necessarily use it personally. For example, a financial blog may promote a specific credit card to its established audience.
Unattached affiliate marketing: A purely performance-based model where the affiliate has no direct connection to the product or its niche. The affiliate runs pay-per-click (PPC) campaigns and places the affiliate link in ads, hoping consumers click and purchase.
How much do these services cost?
Across industries, the median affiliate commission rates stand at 5% to 30% of the sale amount. This percentage tends to be higher when collaborating with retail, beauty, and fashion brands, while B2B, electronics and other high-end products pay on the lower end. And that's only for the commissions payout.
To this sum, businesses need to factor in an additional $2,000 to $10,000 per month for the affiliate marketing company. The scope usually dictates the service fee, finalized based on the number of affiliates, campaign setup, creative production, reporting, and optimization.
In terms of the payment method, there are a few main models to choose from:
Pay-per-sale: Pays a percentage of earn commissions
Pay-per-lead: Pays for qualified referrals
Pay-per-click: Offers small payments per each visitor
Pay-per-install: Pays for each app/software download and install
How are commissions usually tiered?
Affiliate marketing companies usually structure the commission based on the complexity of the conversion and the level of creator influence. Here are the average commissions and payouts businesses can expect:
Reach and engagement: 5% to 20%
Revenue-share tiers: 15% to 30%
Flat fee or revenue-share agreements: Around 15%
Referred sale commission: 5% to 25%
Performance-based influencer compensation: 5% to 20%
What is the difference between affiliate marketing and influencer marketing?
The main distinction between affiliate marketing and influencer marketing lies in the primary objective and the corresponding compensation structure.
Affiliate marketing is primarily a performance-oriented model whereaffiliates earn commissions exclusively for prompting specific actions. The engagement delivers immediate return on investment (ROI) and functions as a direct sales channel. Consequently, the relationship between the brand and the affiliate is purely transactional.
By contrast, influencer marketing uses a creator's social influence and audience to cultivate brand awareness and brand trust. Compensation in this model typically involves an upfront flat fee or product gifting in exchange for creative content and visibility.
In essence, affiliate marketing agencies focus on the bottom of the sales funnel, while influencer agencies target the top by putting more emphasis on the narrative and brand resonance.
