Eighty Twenty Rule:
- A rule of thumb that dictates that typically 80% of the products sold in a category will be consumed by 20% of the customers.
This is also known as the Pareto Principal, and more generally is taken to mean that 80% of the effects come from 20% of the causes. Applied to affiliate marketing, that also generally means that 80% of your sales will come from 20% of your affiliates.
