Where to share your Flodesk affiliate link
We want to help you succeed as a Flodesk affiliate because when you win, we win too! Below are proven strategies that help our highest referrers bring in the big bucks.
1. Add your referral link to your emails
You’re already designing stunning emails—and your audience sees it. The easiest way to implement your referral link passively is to add a small line of copy to the bottom of your emails with something like:
Curious how I’m creating these gorgeous emails? Meet Flodesk
Ready to upgrade your email newsletters? See what I’m using!
You may be wondering about my email marketing secret weapon… look no further!
2. Create an informational blog post
Here are some of our favorite types of blog posts to get your creative juices flowing.
Informative or educational post: Many of the top performing affiliate posts either inform people about the platform or educate them on how to use it. How-to posts work great!
Comparative post: If you’ve recently switched to Flodesk from another platform (or you’re familiar with competitive platforms), consider doing a comparative post that showcases the differences between the two options and why you chose Flodesk.
Roundup post: Create a roundup of your favorite email marketing or other small business tools that business owners should invest in. Here are some tips from top affiliates on roundups:
Choose an odd number of tools to feature (we recommend 5), make any affiliate links bold to make them easily identifiable, and pin this post to the top of your blog to keep it top of mind.
Be sure to use affiliate and referral links for all the tools you feature to increase your revenue earning potential.
Tip: Always disclose your use of affiliate links.
Need help with your wording? Customize the following disclosure to make it your own.
Disclosure: Some of the links in this post are affiliate links and if you go through them to make a purchase I will earn a commission. Keep in mind that I only share about companies that I truly believe in.
3. Share on social media
Our favorite channel? Instagram Stories. Here are a few tips on how to generate referrals via IG Stories.
Share about how you’re using Flodesk, what you love about the platform, and give your audience a peek at your upcoming email newsletters. People love to see behind the scenes, so pull back the curtain and give them a look at your process.
If you have the swipe up feature: link directly to your Flodesk Affiliate link.
If you don’t have the swipe up feature: write out your code on the story image or video and add the referral link to your bio for the 24-hour period the story is live.
4. Run ads to amplify your content
Whether you create a blog post or an Instagram highlight all about why you love Flodesk, running ads that promote your content is a great way to expand your reach.
Always be sure your ads:
Point to your own domain—Never the Flodesk domain
Point to content that includes your affiliate link—Never link directly to your affiliate link
Include your branding—Don’t pose in any way as the Flodesk brand
An ad that works perfectly clearly includes your branding and promotes your blog post (e.g., “How Flodesk Revolutionized My Business in 2021”) that includes your link within the content.
