I have been developing a site recently and am having a very hard time contacting the affiliate managers for the major merchants. I have received replies from about half of them now but only after many emails to each one. Does anyone know of a better way to get a hold of these affiliate program managers? Is anyone here in good contact with some of the affiliate managers for Walmart, Half.com, etc? If so I would be very appreciative if anyone can help me get in contact with these sites. Thanks!!
Many of them are very stretched and would reply to you only if you are one of their top dogs. You can get to them via CJ.com if you're nice enough. I can help you if you have any questions, contact me by PM.
...do a little research, find out where they are and try phoning them - if they are the big dogs they will have phone numbers too. They may try to hide themselves but it should be possible to track them down if you are really motivated.
