10 strategies to acquire first customers #
If it is your first time in the world of affiliate marketing, you will surely wonder what I should do to get people to enter my link and make money? At Planify X, our affiliates are the most important to us, which is why we’ve asked our top affiliates to share their top 10 strategies for acquiring the first customers.
1.- Value Content: Create relevant and useful content on your blog and social media about the various tools a marketer needs for their daily tasks, and how Planify X brings them all together in one place at an incredible price! Keep in mind that many agencies or freelancers are actively seeking this type of information, and your ability to assist them with this will be highly valuable. Remember to share your affiliate link at least 3 times in each post; this will increase the chances of your viewers clicking on it.
2.- Your Own Referral Program: This strategy is very intriguing and positions you as an expert in Planify X. It consists of the following: you can offer your current customers to join the platform through your link and even encourage them to share it with their own clients. In return, you can provide them with certain benefits, such as one-on-one consultations to teach them how to use the platform’s tools, ‘VIP’ access to your exclusive material, early access to your upcoming courses, special discounts, etc. The idea is for them to receive a ‘Bonus’ for referring others to you.
3.- Email Marketing: Send informative newsletters to your subscriber list, highlighting the benefits of Planify X and how they can earn by recommending it to others. Perhaps today you already have a list of customers or those interested in your products. You can leverage this by sending them additional material about the platform and how it can assist them with their daily digital marketing tasks. Remember to share your link at least 3 times within the email body and you can even include a link to your WhatsApp for potential inquiries to reach out to you instantly. With this strategy, you can reach hundreds or even thousands of people, but be cautious – avoid spamming! Your subscribers will dislike it (and so will we), and they may unsubscribe or even report your emails.
4.- Webinars and Workshops: Host online webinars and workshops where you can demonstrate how to use Planify X to solve common problems. Nowadays, webinars and workshops are trendy because they allow viewers to interact almost privately with the ‘instructor.’ This can help you address questions that arise in real-time and even build enough trust for them to join the platform. Keep in mind that there are no other platforms that do what Planify X does. At the end of the webinar, share your affiliate link for them to join the platform with you, and you can even send them the presentation you used, where your link is included on various slides.
5.- Social Media: Regularly post on platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok. Use relevant hashtags and share success stories with your followers. People love to see how someone makes money in unconventional ways or even how they solved the same problems they have! By using your creativity, you can create posts that go viral and reach thousands of people. You can include your affiliate link in the post description, and you can even provide your contact details (email, WhatsApp, Telegram) for people to reach out to you privately. Remember that on these platforms, you also have chat features for them to interact without leaving the app. Always keep your referral link handy.
6.- Online Advertising: This strategy allows you to reach thousands of people quickly by investing just a few dollars. Advertising on social media is the most cost-effective way to promote your products or services today. For just $1 a day, your ad can reach thousands of people every day. The most commonly used platforms are Facebook, Instagram, Google Ads, YouTube, and TikTok, each catering to different audiences. A good strategy is to be present on at least two of them simultaneously. You can look for online courses that teach you how to manage these platforms, and they are completely free. Remember that investing in them can exponentially multiply your customer base!

7.- Strategic Collaborations: You can seek out individuals who already have a substantial client base or thousands of followers and offer them to promote Planify X through your link. You can offer to provide them with a service in exchange or promote their products to your clients or followers. The idea is to create a win-win relationship where everyone benefits. If they already know you, they will be more accessible and it will be easier to achieve this. Otherwise, you might have to pay a few dollars for them to share, but don’t worry, it’s an investment you make once and can bring you hundreds of customers generating a recurring income for life!
8.- SEO Optimization: Ensure that your website is optimized for search engines. If you already have a website where you frequently share valuable content, remember to have it SEO optimized. This way, Google will index it at the top of search results whenever someone searches for the appropriate keywords (which appear on your pages). This is an excellent way to acquire new customers since you only need creativity to create the content or you can use AI tools to create it. For example, with Chat GPT, you can create your content and give it a unique touch. Don’t forget to ’embed’ your affiliate link within your post.
9.- Groups and Communities: You can create groups on Facebook or WhatsApp where you share tips or even offer free courses using Planify X. Your viewers will become interested and start consulting you; this is your moment to provide your insights about the platform and share your affiliate link. Remember, you will be our ambassador in the world, and people will feel comfortable with you. Additionally, you can create WhatsApp communities where you have all your groups: clients, prospects, students, etc., and send them updates from time to time (including your affiliate link) and even invite them to your Webinars and Workshops (strategy 4th). Don’t forget the golden rule: NO SPAM! They might block your number, and all your efforts will go to waste.
10.- Testimonials and Reviews: Request your first satisfied users to leave positive testimonials and reviews on your website, social media, or virtual classroom. Later, you can share these testimonials with prospects who reach out to you to instill more confidence in them and show them how Planify X can assist them. This strategy relies on word of mouth, a way of recommending a product or service that has been used since the early days of marketing because it is what generates the most trust. Don’t you recommend certain places or products to your friends and family?
