5 Affiliate Referrals! Get On The Social Media Bus!
If you are using your Social Media (SM) platforms only for keeping in touch with friends and watching the lives of others, you are cheating yourself, big time!!
You must be seeing all the Wealthy Affiliate (WA) blog posts about the success that our Members are having using SM creatively for their businesses. It's time to leave the no-return, play of SM behind and leverage the success that it will give you, if you learn to use it appropriately.
1 Post, 5 Referrals - Overnight
On my personal development website, I promote Grammarly. They are very subtle banners and you can very easily miss them if you are scrolling through quickly. On this website, my focus is on content and simply sharing creative ways to think about common organisational and personal development issues.
Yesterday evening, I shared a link to 1 of my articles in one of my Facebook Groups. It is a Writers' Group and we share ideas and tips about writing and helping each other's business.
This morning, I was really happy to see 4 emails from my Grammarly Affiliate Program in my inbox saying that I referred 5 new persons to Grammarly!
A very quick check showed me that those Referrals came from the 1 post I shared yesterday evening in my Facebook Group!
That shows the awesome potential of what could happen with consistent SM activity to drive traffic to our websites.
Members Enjoying Success
Many of our Members are enjoying success with different SM platforms. In case you missed their posts, here are a few to check out:
Ferra - Pinterest
Bolupe - Instagram
Roope - YouTube
Heidi - Facebook
Jeff - Linkedin
Grace - Tik Tok
Aparna did a survey recently and shared these statistics with us on the top 3 SM platforms our members are using:
The year's end is fast approaching. The activity on the internet for opportunities, ideas and sales will increase exponentially over the next few months.
Again, if you have not yet started to explore the potential and power of SM, I encourage you to put it on your 'to do' list now.
You will be very happy that you did!
Have and engaged day!

Thanks Cassi for sharing. So glad for your success and proof that social media brings traffic and referrals.
This is helping me personally. I was not aware of those in WA who specialize in different social media avenues. I will check them our for ideas to increase my own growth.
Thanks for your help.
You are welcome, George.
SM does bring traffic and referrals.
You have to manage it, like everything else.
Have a look at the success of the Members that I noted.
They are all doing great things with SM.
So happy that my post was helpful for you.
Thank you for your support.

Great post Cassi about using social media, I took the advice from Ferra so I setup my Pinterest account. Let's see how that goes.
That is a very good first step, Eugene.
Invest some time in it and you will see the rewards.
Thank you.

Wow, that's super, Cassi. Congratulations.🎉🎉🎉
I am about to share mine today. I got my very 1st referral from sharing WA blog posts or training on my Facebook personal account (since I don't have an MMO site yet).
The thing with Pinterest is I heard different opinions. Some say don't use Pretty Link or Bitly, Pinterest doesn't like it. Some say don't use raw affiliate link on your pins. However, we can still use our blog post's URL that will direct the Pinterest users to visit our website. That's a safe way. We don't want to get banned or get our account suspended if we don't play by their rules.
Once again thanks for sharing your success, Cassi. I'll amp up my effort to get referrals by doing what I am doing these past weeks.I can't wait to launch my MMO site soon. So excited he he...

Ferra, Pinterest is no different from WA.
We are not allowed to promote our businesses here.
That is understandable.
But, as you have shared, there are other ways for us to promote what we do.
You are doing great!
I am looking forward to your updates. 🙂
