“One of the best things about implementing SaaSquatch was that it helped us create a process for our referral program. This was a new territory for us, and the team was helpful with questions ranging from the actual implementation to best practices for referral programs. No one on our team had run a referral program before, so their insights were very, very welcome and appreciated.”

Partner marketing is a strategic collaboration between parties, whether it's two businesses or a business and an individual, such as an influencer.
Partner programs are often used to establish relationships between businesses that offer complimentary products in order to create more value for their respective customers.
Partners often have the ability to give preferential pricing to the people they refer and are typically rewarded with cash for their referrals, often on a commission basis. One of the main differentiators of a partner program is the high level of engagement between the partner and the brand. It’s not unusual for partners to be trained on the product, provided with marketing collateral, and even assigned a representative from the brand.

Affiliate programs are basically partner programs open to the broader public. Instead of your business recruiting a network of official partners to sell on your behalf, affiliates will come to you and apply to join your program.
While an affiliate is technically the “partner” of a business, the relationship is much different than a true “partner program”.
Your partners are often trained salespeople from businesses with whom you have a high level of trust to represent your brand well. This is often leveraged in the B2B industry where the buying process is longer and involves multiple decision-makers.
This program is typically used in B2C industries where the buying process takes no more than a few clicks and approval from only one stakeholder – the consumer.
In short, this program is broad and opens up the opportunity to partner with more people than just those in your “inner circle” and can drive more business faster. It’s perfect for businesses looking for quick wins.
However, if you prefer cultivating closer relationships with fewer partners, then a partner program might be the better option. It all depends on your business objectives and how you want to engage with partners. Ultimately, it’s up to you! If you’re looking for a mix of both, then choosing an affiliate network that offers partner programs can be an ideal solution.

Referral marketing revolves around the shared relationship between your customers, their friends or associates and your brand. Current customers personally promote your brand to new users to earn rewards, ideally for both themselves and their friends.
Successful customer referral marketing programs motivate customers to share your brand with their family, friends, and associates in a straightforward, natural fashion. Encouraging happy customers to become active brands ambassadors is simple, so referral marketing sets your company up for conversions while rewarding users for their participation.
