Overview

Verified publishers, super-affiliates and creators across CJ, impact.com, Awin, Rakuten, PartnerStack and Everflow, self-serve or fully managed.

What it does

Publisher Finders is an affiliate recruitment tool that indexes verified publishers by the networks they already work on: CJ Affiliate, impact.com, Awin, ShareASale's former programs, Rakuten, PartnerStack, Everflow and in-house programs. That network mapping is the practical advantage. When you find a publisher who is already on your network, recruitment is an invitation rather than a migration.

The database covers content publishers, super-affiliates, creators and influencers, with contact details for outreach. Search by niche, network and audience, build lists, and export to your outreach tool or CRM.

There are two ways to buy it. Self-serve access is $199 a month, or 20% less on an annual plan, with a 14-day free trial. The managed recruitment service is $1,500 a month: the Publisher Finders team prospects roughly 500 targeted affiliates and publishers each month on your behalf, and full platform access is included. Both run month to month or annually.

The managed tier is the interesting option for a brand with budget but no recruiter. At $1,500 a month it is cheaper than an OPM retainer and narrower in scope: it fills the top of the funnel and leaves negotiation and onboarding to you. Compare it with Breezy's managed discovery if you are weighing a service rather than software.
