OUR APPROACH
Acceleration Partners provided Renogy with recommendations and support to guide affiliate marketing efforts during the expansion, which included:
Technology Platform Migration
With AP’s assistance, Renogy migrated to a software as a service (SaaS) platform that would be able to accommodate an expansion and offer better ways to monitor performance during the transition.
Localized Account Managers
AP provided Renogy with affiliate account managers based in each of the three regions they were expanding to, ensuring the company would have access to local expertise, boots-on-the-ground support, and insight into regional trends and affiliates.
Global Influencer Strategy
AP directly targeted individual influencers interested in camper vans and sustainability to align with Renogy’s niche audience—specifically targeting high-performing YouTube influencers. Having managers in the same regions as these influencers increased how much they populated local searches. To attract these partners to the program, Renogy gave influencers free equipment or product samples for video-based reviews.
