Quick-Start Guide

Good day Affiliates

This is a quick-start guide that I made for you. These are the bare minimum things you need to do to start your affiliate journey.

Your Facebook needs to be set up. We recommend creating a new Facebook page for your affiliate marketing business, this is so that there isn't such a big jump from your "official" business to the affiliate marketing. However, there are some exceptions and it's up to you to decide - if your current business can link with affiliate marketing then you can post and share your affiliate marketing posts on your already-existing Facebook page, but if the two are too different (and your official business has nothing to do with affiliate marketing, or the two don't link together easily) then we recommend that you create a new page to post your affiliate content on.

We have provided pre-made creatives for you to use in your posts. You can make changes to the creatives (change colours, certain phrases etc) to add your own voice and style. In your caption, create some hype around the lead magnet and/or digital nomadism. You want to get people excited so that they would feel inclined to click on your link.

For this step you will mainly use Canva; either to create your post and lead magnet, or to download the ones that are already created for you.

2. Your funnel needs to be set up. The landing page (first page of your funnel) is the place where you will capture your lead's contact information so that you can contact them again at a later stage (either to nurture them, follow up with them, or upsell them into the program if they didn't buy the first time). Please refer to the video in the message below "How to Set Up Your First Affiliate Marketing Funnel", to see how to set up your buttons and links within the funnel. Once your lead has filled in and submitted the form on your landing page, they are redirected to your upsell page (second page of your funnel), this is where they will be able to download the lead magnet that your post promised (again refer to the video to see how to set this up). Once they have downloaded the lead magnet they have the option to go to the Funnel Junkies page (with your affiliate link - again refer to the video for the set up).

For this step you will use VanX Funnels to set up your funnel. You can find your funnels in the VanX Software in the Sites tab.

3. You will need a form on your funnel in order to capture your lead's contact information. Your form should always include a first name, last name, phone number and email address - also ensure that all fields are set to be *Required. When a lead fills in a form and submits it, their details are captured within the VanX software in the CRM (Customer Relationship Manager). You can find all your leads in the Contacts tab in the VanX Software. Once you have created your form, you can insert it into your funnel.

For this step you will use VanX Funnels. Forms are created in Sites -> Forms -> +Add Form. You can also see all form submissions in Sites -> Forms -> Submissions.

4. You need a way to send your lead magnet to your leads. There are two viable options at this stage.

Option 1) Manually send your lead magnet via Facebook Messenger to the people who comment your CTA (Call-to-Action). You can include a follow up message with your affiliate link. Something like: "If this was of interest to you and you would like to explore the world of a digital nomad some more, consider taking a look at our affiliate marketing program [ insert your affiliate link ]"

Option 2) Use a funnel to provide your lead magnet (explained in step 2). If you're using this option then you would need to include the link to your funnel in the caption of your post, that also means that your post's CTA would need to change. Instead of "Comment XYZ and we'll send you the guide", it would be something like: "Click the link in the caption to unlock your free guide"

For this step you would make use of Canva and Skool to retrieve your lead magnets.
