Affiliate tracking to use with Clever Outreach
Clever Outreach automates the process of reaching out to potential affiliate partners at scale. It handles the recruitment side brilliantly, but once affiliates join your program, you need tracking and payout infrastructure. Trackli steps in to manage everything from click tracking to commission payments.
What Clever Outreach does (and doesn't do)
- Automates outreach campaigns targeting potential affiliate partners with personalized messaging
- Manages multi-step email sequences with follow-up logic and response handling
- Identifies and qualifies potential affiliates based on niche relevance and online presence
- Scales recruitment efforts so you can contact hundreds of potential partners efficiently
- Tracks outreach metrics like open rates, response rates, and campaign effectiveness
- Does not create or manage affiliate referral links for recruited partners
- Does not track clicks, conversions, or sales generated by affiliates
- Does not calculate commissions or process affiliate payments
- Does not provide affiliates with a portal to view their performance or earnings
The gap: why you still need tracking
Clever Outreach excels at helping you discover and recruit affiliates, but once a partner says “yes,” you need infrastructure to generate unique referral links, track clicks and conversions, calculate commissions, and manage payouts. That's exactly what Trackli provides.

How Clever Outreach + Trackli work together
Clever Outreach and Trackli form a recruitment-to-management pipeline for affiliate programs. Clever Outreach handles the top-of-funnel work: prospecting, outreach, follow-ups, and securing commitments from potential affiliates. Trackli picks up at the point of onboarding and runs all operational aspects of the program. Recruited affiliates are invited into Trackli manually or via a shared sign-up link, where they receive tracking infrastructure and portal access. The outreach metrics from Clever Outreach (response rates, acceptance rates) can inform how you structure commissions in Trackli to attract the best partners.
