Hello everyone, I'd like to share the case of how I made $5,400 on free traffic from social networks, by distributing videos of a blogger who sells trading education and placing an affiliate link in the profile header.
I'm well experienced in trading, so I was excited to get into a partnership with Thomas Kralow. In this case, partnering with him is all about creating new social media accounts and posting short videos. My job entailed working with organic accounts. As a result, I helped them scale without an investment.
Affiliate Program: affwolfofretrodrops.com;
Source: Reels, Tik Tok, Youtube Shorts;
Offer: web push notifications;
Expenditure: $164;
Revenue: $5,400;
Work: 2-3 hours per day.
Tools: Opus Clip, Vizard.ai and PostMyPost
How does it work?
Thomas has a large database of content as well as published YouTube videos. I was creating new and unique Reels from pre-edited content. A very simple montage and a new caption were required so that Instagram algorithms would qualify the video as new content, not previously published, and pick it up, showing it to the target audience.
For partner accounts, I used ready-made Reels that had been posted to Thomas's main account long ago. I changed the music, added a few sound effects or footage to end up with a new and unique video according to Instagram’s algorithm.
In addition, I took ideas from Youtube videos + files from shoots, which are available from the expert. I created new Reels, just swapping frames and playing with formats, adding new inserts and footage. Videos like these only take me about 10 minutes to create and publish.
For video cutting I used a very convenient AI tool - Opus Clip or Vizard.ai, which allows me to simply insert a link to an interview or video of an expert and receive almost ready-made videos that require small adjustments. Afterward, I would post all of this content via scheduled posts on the PostMyPost service.
Thomas publishes videos to his YouTube channel on a daily basis. Using the video cutting service, I get an average of 5-6 short videos with auto-generated subtitles, which I can turn into Reels.
In total 30 accounts were utilized, 10 for each social network, 3 videos per account per day. I did not create separate content for different sites. I posted one video on several social networks at once. And for different accounts I could simply make minimal edits in the montage.
As a result, I post 90-100 new Reels per month.
If I add AI-cut videos to that number, I get a much larger number of Reels, which the expert does not post on his account, only I post them.
Where did the sales come from?
Again, I was only working with organic traffic. So my priority was to bring people from Reels to the profile header so that they would click on the affiliate link.
For this purpose, simple calls to action in the description of the videos worked well on my accounts. For subscribers, I duplicated new Reels in Stories with a call to action to click through to the profile.
In the beginning, when I was connecting accounts, my manager gave me recommendations on how to communicate with leads via DM: key points about the product and how to go through the registration process. I could also reach out to Thomas' team if a person came to me with a question I didn't have the answer to. This significantly increased conversion rates.
I also messaged those who liked my Reels, commented or asked about education.
Any leads I connect with myself, I pass on to the sales department of Thomas' team.
The expert already has sales, marketing, free lead magnets and a webinar funnel lined up, which is where I transfer traffic from daily Reels.
The best videos I've published in my affiliate accounts:
Target Audience
I work mainly with US audiences on my affiliate accounts.
1. Working class who have $1,000 in savings and are looking for ways to increase their capital.
2. Large investors.
Since there are a lot of videos in the content base to use with Thomas' reasoning and expertise, any Reels generated will contain valuable expert information and the target audience is attracted by this.
Conclusion
Source: organic traffic
Geo: USA
Spent: $0
Profit: $18,000
Earned from affiliate model: $5,400 (30%) in the last 2 months.
Good strategy for just making money because of the well built model, product line and content by the expert himself. For the accounts, I got the target audience and geolocation right.
I tested several Reels and montage formats beforehand, to find the one that will gain traction on my accounts.
