When a sales guy at any company, in any industry makes a sale -- its only a sale if the customer actually BUYS something.

Affiliates ARE THE SALES GUYS for programs.
If you make an introduction but the customer DOES NOT BUY, you didn't make a sale, you don't get paid the commission. All you did was make an introduction.
No company will pay anyone for simply making an introduction.

It's up to the sales guys as well to make sure they are getting the right type of customers that will seal the deal and stay on board.

Usually the sales guy is also responsible for making sure the customer is happy beyond the sale as well, luckily adult affiliates don't have to do that / have a way to do that.
So your job is still a typical sales guy, but some parts are easier, and some parts are harder.
