I thought you were going to talk about a program you wrote that automated some tedious marketing process. This is a pretty tech, marketing, business savvy group, you probably need to offer something more advanced than the concept of affiliate marketing.
Also, here's my problem with affiliate marketing in general. There's no long term customer cash flow. I send amazon someone I get 4% of say $30 and they get a new customer for life. So, unless you have a big audience your screwed.
I used to do ads on google and send them to lead based affiliate programs. made a few bucks. no cash changes hands and I still make money. But that's a pretty competitive business. Then zillow came along and offered the info for free.
Good read, thanks, it is about conversations on social media, Gary Vaynerchuk comes to mind. Also, the way to make money with affiliate marking is to sell high ticket items because you are correct the smaller percent items only work with lots of traffic.

If your going to sell for someone find someone to sell for that only you are marketing for and they have something unique for you to sell.
