The main thing is persuasion. You have to ensure you move these affiliates into buying the products.
In order for persuasion to be realised you have to have feedbacks from these affiliates through stream posting, genealogy, social media networks and the one that is on top of my list is personally emailing or instant messaging them.
By doing so you are setting the basis for your products. You can provide incentives to these affiliates to attract them to purchase your products.
