Hayneedle is the parent company of dozens of specialty “niche” retail sites ranging from adirondack chairs to zebra beanbags. We offer thousands of indoor and outdoor items at competitive prices – and we are experts in each category. The Hayneedle affiliate program is an opportunity for YOU to make money by partnering with a proven leader in the eCommerce industry – Hayneedle!

Hayneedle was formed in the fall of 2001 under the name Quadrant II. At that time we had just one operational retail site – Hammocks.com. The following two years saw an expansion to twelve different sites, such as AdirondackChairs.com and Benches.com. An affiliate program was launched in 2003, featuring twelve stores. 2004 saw several more stores added, and the affiliate program was expanded to include more than 100 websites.  In August, 2009, the company’s name was officially changed to Hayneedle, which embodies our core principles of hard to find variety and value.

And that brings us up to today. We currently have over 165 different websites on our affiliate program for you to promote. We’ve partnered with Pepperjam and Google Affiliate Network to bring our affiliates the best promotional tools, reporting and platform available today. HayneedleAffiliates.com is dedicated to helping affiliates make the most out of their promotions. All of our banners, text links, PepperjamADS and datafeeds can be found through your affiliate account at Pepperjam or GAN.

The Team

Sara Rubin (formerly Sara Austad) joined the Hayneedle Affiliate team in January 2008 and came to the company after many years of retail, internet and affiliate program management work with a national golf retailer. While she does help take care of the day to day reports at Hayneedle, Sara is focused on the overall program success. This means overseeing creatives, promotions, recruiting and adding to the affiliate knowledge base. She is your go-to for most questions or requests you might have and if she doesn’t have the answer right away, she’ll definitely get it for you. Along with playing golf and cooking, Sara is also a huge fan of Minnesota Vikings football and Murder She Wrote reruns. (Insert Murder She Wrote joke here.)  Feel free to contact Sara for advice or general help with the affiliate program.

Brooke

Brooke Murphy joined the Hayneedle Affiliate team in the middle of 2008 with a background mostly in marketing. She handles incoming applications as well as assisting in creatives, promotions and any other various day to day operations in the affiliate program. Brooke is part of a support team in making sure things are up to speed from answering e-mails to working with the affiliate manager in upcoming projects. In the affiliate world Sara is the Batman and Brooke is the Robin, though these roles are interchangeable due to Brooke’s excellent work ethic and passion for what she does. Aside from working with the affiliate program, you’ll find Brooke shopping, traveling, enjoying the outdoors, participating in all types of athletic activities and listening to music.
