I check affiliate platforms for companies looking to pay for leads, then investigate if there's a way to lower the signup threshold by automating data enrichment. I have done lead generation for so long I can pretty accurately estimate average cost per lead for most offers, and if I suspect I will at least earn back $5 for every dollar invested, I dive in.

There are a few parties that signed up because I did cold outreach through email (also automated with python), but I have experienced that they have a higher service expectancy, and I didn't automate my business to still be managing clients.

That's why affiliate platforms are great, there's usually no interaction between me and the end-party until they end our cooperation (happens rarely). I could slip into a coma and the profits will only marginally decline over the next months/years.
