• Recruit the right partners and scale our webinar program.
• Make the program more efficient through AI and automation.
• Build partnerships with creators and influencers.
• Optimize programs through data and create systems that work without constant manual effort.

  • Begin building relationships with top-performing affiliates.
• First month:
  • Audit the current affiliate program and identify highest-impact opportunities.
  • Map out a strategic plan with clear priorities and expected outcomes.
  • Launch 2-3 quick wins to improve partner activation or webinar conversion.
  • Share initial strategy and recommendations with Christina and the team.
• First six months:
  • Execute strategic plan and hit quarterly MRR targets from affiliates.
  • Recruit and activate new partners across multiple segments.
  • Scale the webinar program to drive more qualified leads with better conversion rates.
  • Build AI-powered systems that reduce manual coordination time by at least 50%.
  • Establish clear metrics, dashboards, and a regular working-in-public cadence.
• First year:
  • Deliver $1M in new ARR through strategic partner recruitment and program optimization.
  • Scale the webinar program to meaningfully increase its contribution to total affiliate MRR.
  • Diversify the partner mix beyond individual creators to include media partners and AI-first publishers.
  • Continue building documented playbooks and systems that make the program scalable and predictable.
  • Establish Kit's affiliate program as a reliable revenue driver with clear processes others can follow.

Qualifications

• 7+ years in affiliate, partner, or influencer marketing.
• Proven track record building and scaling affiliate programs within the creator economy or SaaS.
• Extensive hands-on experience with PartnerStack (platform administration, recruitment, reporting).
• Direct experience managing webinar partnership programs that drive measurable leads and revenue.
• Success driving significant revenue growth through affiliate partnerships.
• Experience recruiting and activating diverse partner types including pro affiliates, media partners, and creator partners.
• Working with creators and understanding what motivates them to promote products they believe in.
