    A thought just came to my mind,

    Ok, so how hard is it to open your own Affiliate CPA company?

    What will be the risks, costs, work involvement, etc?

    Thanks.

    Can't be that difficult as several dozen pop up every year.

    I'd say it would be closer to 100K but with a lot of effort.

    It'll be very hard to open a successful company. There are so many affiliate networks out there, that you'll have to offer your affiliates something special to stand out from the pack.

    I agree with jimmy. I've worked at two different affiliate networks, I say the biggest thing is finding someone to create a good user interface. I mean, you could go with one of the ready made ones, but in order to compete you've really have to be niche.

    I think it would be really hard, one of the main reasons being fraud signups and all.

    Good luck

    If you dont have the experience get advice from people who have done it. You will have to have some cash but who knows maybe you can get backers to go in with you.

    biggest thing is knowing how to get the interest of affiliates, the other stuff would fit in place if you had that
