That greatly depends on the product and the way you set
up your affiliate system.
There's one interesting thing with affiliate systems.
While in regular advertising, the advertiser chooses
where to advertise, in affiliate systems, affiliate is
the one to choose what to advertise!
So, you MUST have truly appealing product to sell and
even more appealing affiliate compensation.

Commission Junction would cost you less then $1000!
Anyway, I would strongly suggest you to contact Shawn
Collins of Refer-it.com (if you want I can give you his
e-mail address of the list or you can find it at their
site).
I found his help of great value!
(Though, I must admit I may be biased because Refer-it
recently became co-branding partner of our EasyNoter.
Shawn is a great person to work with.)
