Using VA's To Scout Down Affiliates?

Can anyone tell me if anyone came out with a WSO about a system for how people scout affiliates using VA's?

If not can anyone direct me to any information about that?

    I have an offline staff (apologies; they're not for hire) who are engaged in many related activities. If you know how to secure the right kind of affiliates, most VAs can handle it. As usual, they just need written instruction, but I think I would avoid this sort of system. Getting affiliates is a science, really. Depending on the size of your organization, you may only be seeking the very best variety of affiliate.

    One system, anyway, is simply to have your VA setup an account on a relevant, high-traffic forum. You pay for signature space, banners, you name it. Their signature links to your affiliate page and you instruct the affiliate on how best to function within that forum: attitude, tone, type of posts to make, and how to use Google Alerts, for instance, to respond quickly to pertinent threads. Using this sytem, you really want a VA who understands the mechanics of generating traffic from forums.

    Why not put your product on a digital marketplace like JVZoo,Clickbank or Commission Junction? Have affiliates come to you (attract them) instead of you going to them.
