Profile of scams and promotions have been successful in WhatsApp groups and social networks such as Instagram and X (formerly Twitter). On the rise in recent years, the strategy consists of the content creator, behind the account, to mine discounts in digital stores and help their followers save. The method is nothing more than an affiliate marketing, an agreement in which affiliates receive a commission for each visit or sale.
According to the Glassdor platform, a professional who works in the area of affiliate marketing receives, on average, R$ 8,731.00, almost triple the average Brazilian salary that is R$ 3,123.00, as the last survey conducted this year, by the National Household Sample Survey (Pnad). Therefore, it can be said that profitability is one of the factors that explain the rise of the work model. Therefore, the financial influencer Jhonatas Silva created a step by step for anyone to create a profile of achadinhos in any social network.
Step 1: Create a social media account from scratch
“It is important that the account is from scratch, because if the account is a personal or already used will disrupt the delivery of the algorithm. The algorithm of the social network needs to understand to whom it should deliver the videos. If you use an account that already exists, the video will be delivered to the wrong audience and, most likely, your account will not reach many views”
Step 2: Create an account and join the affiliate programs of major marketplaces
“Most stores nowadays accept affiliation: Amazon, Magalu, Shopee, Mercado Livre, among others.I recommend creating an account in different stores because there are promotions that exist in Shopee, but are not in Magalu, for example. In the same way that Amazon has many good promotions that in others do not have, and so will”.
Step 3: Post viral videos about the product
“You can use Instagram and TikTok videos as inspiration to create your model.In addition, it is interesting that you buy the product for yourself to record the video. But in the beginning, I recommend you post other people's video, because you may not have the box to buy these products. I suggest you use an editing mask, that is, take pieces of several videos only showing the product and put a narration of yours on top, for example. Already over time, as you make more money, it is interesting that you buy the products themselves, to have an original 100% content and that does not risk being knocked down.
Step 4: Place the affiliate link in your bio and stories
“In addition to bio and stories, I recommend that after 24 hours you fix the link in the highlights of Instagram. This will generate a lot of conversion, because people will get to your profile by video, will be interested, will click on the profile to see and will already be face with the link you left fixed. So it is cool that you make it as easy as possible for the user not to waste time looking for where he should enter, this causes withdrawal in most people”.
Step 5: See videos that gave more views and do similar in the next
“As time goes by, you will notice that some videos will get more views than others. Search analyze the posts that received more engagement and ask yourself: What did I do in this video for people to be more interested? Did it have more comments and, therefore, was delivered to more users? If so, what I said in the video that generated more comments? See what you can take away from good to be able to replicate in the next and, consequently, make more sales”.
Step 6: Give reasons for the person to follow your page
“You need to show the person who wants to help you and, in this case, there is something that demonstrates more than posting promotions? It is essential at the beginning that you gain the loyalty of your follower. As much as you do not earn commission, imagine that there is a product that normally costs R$ 400.00 and the next day you post a promotion with the same costing half the price. The person at the time will retain with your page and follow you by the fact that it is useful for you. Gaining the trust of your followers is essential for the growth of your profile. The“how you speak of the promotion is also important, the product is always the ideal.
Step 7: Withdraw the commission directly to your account
“As it is about commission and physical products, there is a chance to take a few days for the money to be released to your account. This is completely normal, because as there is the process of purchases, often stores make available for you to view the value of your commission, but only release for withdrawal when the product arrives at the person's home and ensures that there will be no refund or some exchange. Always think about the amount, I believe that when you make the first sale, the next ones will be much easier, because you have already understood how the method works and know which way to follow”.
