Ramachandran draws expertise from working with 110,000 affiliate marketers worldwide

Dush Ramachandran, vice president of sales, marketing and business development for ClickBank, a top online retailer, will talk about the most promising growth strategies for affiliate marketers in the United States and Europe at two major affiliate marketing conferences coming up in December and January.

Participating in the Super Affiliate track at the Affiliate Convention in Los Angeles on Dec. 3-4, Ramachandran will moderate a panel on the latest tips and techniques for super affiliates. He also will speak about best-practice growth strategies for affiliate marketers, along with fellow panelists Rosalind Gardner, author of the Super Affiliate Handbook, and Brian Norgard, vice president of the Fox Advertising Network.

ClickBank is widely considered to be a leader in national and international affiliate marketing with more than 110,000 active affiliate marketers working with the company to market its products and drive sales to an average of 26,000 transactions per day. Ramachandran is on the front lines of ClickBank sales and affiliate marketing efforts on a daily basis.

At Affiliate Summit West 2010 in Las Vegas, Jan. 17-19, Ramachandran will speak about “CPA Affiliate Marketing Opportunities in Europe.” Joining him for this panel discussion will Jim Banks, CEO of Global Direct Media, James Little of AffiliateFuture, and Matthew Wood, managing director and founder of Existem.

“Both of these conferences represent excellent learning and networking opportunities for affiliate marketers,” Ramachandran said. “Using real-life case studies, I’ll demonstrate how affiliate marketers can promote products most effectively in U.S. and European markets.”

With a roster of more than 22,000 affiliate marketers in Europe, roughly 18 percent of ClickBank’s 2009 global annual sales have occurred in the European marketplace. Ramachandran, who frequently is invited to speak at the largest and most prestigious national and international affiliate marketing meetings, serves on the advisory boards of Affiliate Summit and Affilicon, its international counterpart.

Ramachandran joined ClickBank in 2005. He is responsible for ClickBank’s sales and marketing activities and alliances with affiliate and vendor organizations worldwide. Ramachandran has held executive leadership positions with domestic and international firms such as Requisite Technology, Conceptual Technologies, Computervision Corp., Prime Computer, Inc. and Datapoint Corp.
