GrowSurf
We were launching an incentive and loyalty program for a client and they had so many questions. GrowSurf and their system basically gave us a script to follow and the setup, trainings, and tracking provided by their software made the project successful. At the end of the day, we use this and our clients use this to get started in loyalty and incentive programs from here on out.

Impact
Any publisher looking to monetize their blogs would be a great fit. The size of the publisher probably doesn't matter. They have a wide selection of advertisers and publishers can sign up for free. Advertisers that are looking for great partners for their affiliate programs would be good fits. One of the benefits is that Impact really focuses on recruiting high-quality publishers.

Impact
  • User interface could be improved a little, as it is a quite difficult task to find the content or links
  • Approval from the advertisers sometimes takes a huge amount of time. If they can somehow reduce the response time, it will be great
  • New affiliates might find the onboarding process a little difficult

We've been reaching out requesting support for two months and no one has responded. They completely ghosted us. We've emailed the original sales rep, our account manager, our sales rep and account manager's bosses, and others. Still no response, though I can see the emails have been opened multiple times. I've never experienced worse support.

GrowSurf was recommended to us by a friend and we were impressed after the free trial so we decided to go with it. The price was right and it offered what we needed so we didn't feel the need to try out other programs before deciding to go with GrowSurf.
