Spamming your affiliate link across social media is the fastest way to lose followers. The key is to provide value first. Here’s how to do it right.
1. Be the Expert, Not the Salesperson
Your primary goal on social media should be to share valuable tips on business management. Become a trusted resource. Once your audience trusts your advice, they will also trust your product recommendations.
2. Tell a Story
Share a personal story or a case study. For example: 'I used to struggle with tracking my inventory until I found a tool that automated everything. It saved me 10 hours a week!' This is far more effective than just posting a link.
3. Create 'How-To' Content
Create short video tutorials showing a specific Business Portal feature in action. For example, a 60-second video on 'How to Create an Invoice in Under 30 Seconds.'
4. Use the Link in Your Bio
On platforms like Instagram, your main call-to-action should be 'Link in bio.' Drive your followers there to learn more.
5. Engage in Communities
Participate in Facebook groups or LinkedIn communities for small business owners. Answer questions and be genuinely helpful. When the time is right, you can ethically share your affiliate link.
Remember the golden rule: Value first, sell second.
