Affiliates, would you trust a network that didn't have "Conversion Tracking"

I have asked a question related to this before and got absolutely amazing replies, now I'm wondering if lighting strikes twice (great movie btw from 1951, if you like those movies lol).

About:

I have a pay-per-month graphic design service. Had it for 4 years now, have a stable income, stable clients, etc. 100% of my clients come from word of mouth. I've spends thousands (thousands!) of dollars on Google Ads, Instagram, Facebook and can't get anyone. I know my service is good because word of mouth is working.

So I thought the following:

What about start an affiliate service where people would promote my service, and someone signs up through their affiliate link, they will get a commission (most likely $330 USD).

The problem:

On the website there is no "Buy Now" button of any sort, in other words, the person has to email me (email provided on the website) to get started. Reason for this is a lot of times people have questions about this service, they want to know who they will be dealing with, etc. Since there is no "Buy Now" button of any kind, the only thing I can offer is an affiliate code where you will know is if the person under your affiliate has emailed me. You can fully ask for the email conversation and I will screenshot it, and if they do sign up, you will get paid.

Can this work?

Because if the roles are reversed and someone asked me to do it for them, the red flag is, "Well what if I send you people and you lie to me about how many people you serviced?" and honestly, besides showing you the emails I don't know how else to prove it.

Solution To Add "Buy Now" button

I can 100% add a "Buy Now" button through PayPal that will track all of this, but I honestly don't have a clue how a person can pay $420 USD through a website that offers graphic design services.
 
Yes it does work. There are offers that convert by phone and when the client makes a ftd the affiliate get paid. It’s a question of trust. Shaving is very common among affiliate networks. So you need to build trust
