Affpal, that’s Stefan Muehlbauer, one of the leading experts when it comes to affiliate management and everything that surrounds it.
Since 2002, the year when I started my first job, I focused on Sales and very soon also on the hiring and Training of Salespeople. In 2010 I moved from the finance industry into online marketing and worked in different programs in Business Development, Affiliate management, and Teamlead with up to 20 people at the same time under my wing. During all these years, speaking and panels were a nice side hustle besides my normal work.
In 2021 everything changed. I got an invite to do a keynote at Affiliate Grand Slam in Dubai. The problem was that I was usually speaking about products, and in my case, that was at this time Adult Dating. That was not a very appreciated topic. Sitting down and thinking about what I really know in and out, I decided to speak about affiliate management. The speech is still online (link). During my research about this topic, I had the challenge that I was not able to find any proper education covering Affiliate Management. 1000 courses on how to make money online but 0 on how to manage these hustlers
