About Silverbean

Affiliate & Partnership marketing isn’t just another side channel – it should be your brand’s ultimate performance play. And right now, most DTC brands are leaving money on the table. It’s time to change your game or get left behind.

By 2030, affiliates, content publishers, influencers and performance partners will generate $30billion in annual revenue for brands. The question is – will you be ahead of the game, or playing catch-up?

The numbers speak for themselves. £6-£16 returned for every £1 invested, driving up to 20% of DTC ecommerce revenue. But these are numbersonly for those who know how to unlock the channel’s true potential.

Silverbean is a critical part of our affiliate channel and is an extension of our internal team. They are great communicators which makes taking on new opportunities such as RevLifter a seamless experience between all 3 parties. They take on the business' campaign objectives as their own which allows us to have full trust in their strategy for the channel.

"We came to Silverbean with the task of supporting our internal teams as we ventured into a new affiliate program for our US attractions. Silverbean provided us with an experienced and knowledgeable team with expertise in the entertainments and ticketing industry that really suited our brand. The project has acted as a springboard for our team, opened doors and created plenty food for thought as we launch our new affiliates program.

IG Group
IG Group approached Silverbean in August 2022 to support our global and regional teams to help us scale our Affiliate and Influencer Marketing channels at pace. During the sales process, Silverbean got fully versed in our business and priorities and helped develop a roadmap for launch across territories, channels and projects. The account managers are diligent, proactive and strategic, whilst regularly proposing tactical opportunities to improve performance. I consider Silverbean to be an extension of my team and it is a joy to work with them. I'm amazed at how much we have achieved in the 7 months we have been working together and the growth we have already achieved. Silverbean has been instrumental in us proving the full value of Partnerships globally and there is still so much more great stuff to come.

The Silverbean team really took the full Polo ID brief and produced an impactful response from an affiliate point of view. This in turn got the whole business talking, with mentions of our great collaborative approach with PR as well as fusing our brand halo with the ecommerce world. Silverbean removed the linear affiliate approach, creating beautiful content commerce whilst playing on our existing partnerships with the likes of Who What Wear, Vogue and Collagerie to maximise the brands potential commercially. It was truly a pleasure to work with Silverbean on this campaign and watch all the ideas come to life.

In 2022 we made the decision to partner with Silverbean to drive forward our DTC strategy. We have had an affiliate program for several years but we hadn't optimised or built any strategy for our program in the region, so this was huge potential to help us build our direct-to-consumer business. Finding an experienced agency, with a great understanding of the market and the ability to expand to other markets was going to be the key to do this. Since we partnered with Silverbean they have helped guide us on our Affiliate journey, being an extension of our team. Working with us side by side, developing an affiliate strategy and planning out a balanced affiliate mix to drive a top-of-funnel and bottom-of-funnel structure to help drive consumers to our sites and get them to convert."
