How to build your business on referral programs

Referral programs from leading brands are a great way not only to show your support, but also to earn real money. But, as in any business, there are some tricks here. Let's talk about how to increase efficiency, increase profits and at the same time not be considered a spammer among your friends.

First steps

In simple words, the referral program works like this: you receive a link from company and share it with friends. The more friends you see, the more purchases you make and the bigger the bonus you get. Therefore, the first step is to acquire that very link.

The link can be sent to you personally - by email or messenger. Or it is generated on the site when a certain button is pressed.

A simplified version - buttons that not only generate a link, but immediately create a post for Facebook or any other social network. If the site provides this, start using it immediately. It's quick and easy. You will not waste time and, perhaps, will bypass your “competitors” from the general list of friends.

Where to share the link

Let's return to a more complex and at the same time more attractive option from a financial point of view - a ready-made link.

You can share it with anyone, anytime. Although it is most likely that your friends or those who know you personally will use it. When you share your link, mention what you liked about the product or your experience with the brand.

Send the link in a personalized email to friends and family who may need the product or service in the first place . These are the people most likely to check it out and make a purchase.

Share your referral link on social media. You can also post it in specialized groups, but remember that each community has its own rules, and not all allow referral or affiliate links.

Online forums that you have been a part of for a long time and where your posts have “weight” can also be good places to exchange links. Especially if someone asks for advice and it is the product or service from the referral link that can help him. However, it is important to be an active participant. If you simply post your referral link without participating in the group, you risk being spammed and banned.

Share your referral link in a post to the group after participating in various discussions. Regular contribution to the group can help avoid this situation.

More or less standard methods of exchanging referral links are clear. How to increase the influx of clients? Here are a couple of ways:

Video reviews

Reviews help customers make purchasing decisions. If you have the talent and feel comfortable in front of the camera, why not make a review video? You should share with your audience what you have purchased, your customer service experience, the quality of the product and who will benefit from using it. You can include a referral link in the video description.

Reviews in blog

Bloggers have a great opportunity to share their opinions with friends and family. Therefore, a review blog post is a great idea.

If you enjoyed your experience with the company, write a review about it. Many people Google search “product + review” when trying to decide if they want to try a product. Your review can help make a decision and will bring you a referral reward in the process.

So, participating in the referral program is interesting and profitable. If you approach link exchange seriously and comprehensively, you can make very good money. The main thing is to choose reliable companies with a proven reputation. So that you are not ashamed of the recommended product or service.
