How Do I Provide Affiliates with the Essential Tools They Need to Sell?

I’m looking for the most basic “get started” coaching.

I’m all installed – no problems. I have affiliates signed up – no problem.

My questions are:

… “how do affiliates promote my products?” … do I supply them with banners?

… and if so, “how do they ensure their affiliate code is associated with the banner?”

I’ve read the documentation, but I’m just not understanding how to easily provide this information to my affiliates.

Sorry for being such a dumb user and thanks so much for any help!

  1. You are welcome Bill.

  2. Thank you so much for the coaching, George!

    I had a suspicion this was the necessary step, but was just uncertain enough where I needed the affirmation.

    Greatly appreciated!

  3. Hi Bill,

    You can promote them by links and by banners.

    If you use the shortcode [affiliates_generate_url] the affiliate can create the affiliate link for each product. If the affiliate puts the link to a product, the affiliate link for this product will be generated.

    In order to setup a banner, you should go to Affiliates>Banners and create a new banner. You can add a name, add an image from WP Media Library or upload a new image. In the same page there is a shortcode rendered that if you place it in Affiliates Area page, you get the html code for this banner and the associated affiliate. So, when an affiliate logs in and visits the Affiliate Area page, he will get the banner code to share in his sites.

    Kind regards,
    George
