Partner marketing

OUR STORY
OUR STORY

Founded in 2022 to break the affiliate stigma.

When we started Paul Street, the affiliate industry had earned a credibility problem. Too many programs were built on coupon sites, non-incremental revenue, and attribution that couldn’t survive a hard question. Brands were skeptical, and for good reason.

Aaron’s background in affiliate and performance marketing driving $350M+ in affiliate sales for brands like Onnit, Goli, and Noom gave us the institutional knowledge. While Paddy’s experience from the founding team at Wayflyer, analyzing thousands of DTC brands’ marketing strategies to predict future revenue for underwriting purposes, led to an obsession around incremental revenue growth.

Together, we believed there was a need for a new kind of affiliate agency that focused on measurable results. We talked to our founder friend’s, they agreed, so we started with them.

Fast forward to today, Paul Street has grown to be a 60+ person partner marketing agency serving 40+ leading DTC brands — generating over $1 billion in trackable revenue. We did it not by chasing volume, but by leveraging real relationships with commerce editors, publishers, and creators to drive measurable, incremental results. We ask brands to onboard us like employees, because that depth of integration is what separates partner marketing that compounds from affiliate programs that stagnate.

We Protect Your Brand, Not Just Your Conversions

We strictly recommend against coupon sites. Every partner in your program is tiered and segmented by quality, and discount-focused affiliates are excluded from day one. We protect your brand equity because we've seen what happens when agencies don't — margin erosion, brand dilution, and a program that looks good on a dashboard but hollows out your business underneath.

We're Not a Vendor. We're an Extension of Your Team.

When we onboard a new client, we ask to be treated like a new employee. That means access to your Slack, your analytics, your media mix, your internal KPIs. We learn how your business works — not just your affiliate program. That depth of integration is why our recommendations are strategic, not generic, and why our clients stay with us for years rather than churning every six months.

Compliance Isn't an Afterthought. It's Daily Practice.

Affiliate fraud and brand bidding violations cost DTC brands millions every year — and most don't even know it's happening. Our 1:25 affiliate-to-account manager ratio means every active partner gets hands-on oversight. We run strict approval processes, daily compliance checks through BrandVerity, and proactive fraud detection.

An Integrated Ecosystem Where Every Channel Compounds

Affiliate, influencer, PR, and AI search are no longer separate channels. They're a connected system. At Paul Street, every service is designed to feed the others. Influencer reviews become authenticated signals for AI search. High-authority editorial placements rank heavily in generative engine results. PR credibility amplifies affiliate conversion rates. No other agency connects these dots the way we do.

We Tell You the Truth About Timelines

Traditional Affiliate marketing programs can take up to 7-9 months to generate significant revenue depending on your current program and media mix. If an agency is promising explosive results in 90 days, they're either misleading you or planning to fill your program with low-quality partners. We set honest expectations from the first conversation because transparency is how long-term partnerships start.
