Here’s your second EasyWebinar affiliate update for May:
- An easy way to permanently increase your commissions to 40%
- How to get referrals quickly (including a coupon you can share)
- The magic of recurring commissions (and how to keep growing them)
Item #1 – How to permanently increase your commissions to 40%
We’ve a special offer for you…
If you refer at least one genuine trial customer in June, we’ll permanently increase your commissions to 40% from the start of July.
So, what’s a “genuine trial customer”?
Well, that’s a trial customer that isn’t a self-referral, they need to have come on board from your marketing.
That said, they don’t need to become a paying customer for you to qualify for the higher rate – but – obviously it’s much better for you if they do, as that’s what earns you commissions!
Here’s how it works…
During June, if you refer at least one trial…
Send an email letting us know: partners@easywebinar.com
And if you’ve qualified, from the very start of July we’ll increase your commission rate to 40%, permanently
So instead of $60 commission for referring a Pro customer, you’ll earn $80. That’s an extra $240 in commissions per year, from just one customer. And the more customers you refer, the more that really starts to add up.
Why are we doing this? Are we just really generous with affiliates?
Well, yes. But also…
We have quite a lot of affiliates. But sadly most of them aren’t doing anything. You know how it is – you register for something, then you forget.
So one reason for this is to encourage you, as an affiliate, to become active again (or even more active, if you’re already active).
And please note – we’ve absolutely zero plans to ever repeat this offer.
That said, you can increase your commissions in future but it will take a lot more than referring one trial to qualify for the higher rate. In other words, it will never be easier than this June to permanently increase your commissions from 30% to 40%.
In the next part of this newsletter I’ll talk through ways to easily generate referrals, including a coupon code you can share.

Item #2 – How to get new referrals quickly (including a coupon)
The easiest way to get referrals quickly is to use your existing marketing assets. Do you perhaps have:
- An email list
- A database of customers
- A content-focused website receiving traffic through search, social, links…
- A social account with a good number of subscribers or followers (YouTube, LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook…)
Just before we talk through those, here’s a coupon code you can share with your audience:
25PERCENT
Note: They need to enter that in the second part of the sign up form, when registering for a trial account.
We can keep that active during June, but it may not stay active beyond June. So I suggest you share it as soon as you’re able to, with as many people as you can.
It gives your referrals 25% off their first billing. Of course, this is a lot more valuable if they sign up to annual billing, rather than monthly.
Since sharing this makes it even easier to make referrals during June, let’s talk through some of your marketing options for getting one (or more) referrals during the month:
Your Email List
Do you have a relevant business or entrepreneurial email list?
Is running webinars relevant to your list?
If you’ve answered yes to both of those…
This is probably the easiest and fastest way to make commissions. Whether as a solo mailing (only promoting EasyWebinar), or adding a promotional snippet as part of a larger email. Of course, if you’re adding a promotion within a larger email, the nearer to the start of the email, the more people will click.
But if you own an email list, I’m sure you know how quickly it can generate results.
Your Customers
Your existing customers are another type of list, and generally much more responsive and valuable than just a list of leads.
So if you have business or entrepreneurial customers who would benefit by running webinars (or that are unhappy with their existing webinar platform), promoting to them could likely be the most powerful type of promotion you could make.
We’ve seen affiliates do well by offering a bonus bundle to anyone who signs up through their link.
And since you can offer the coupon too (which is only available for a limited time), that can really help you make referrals quickly.
Your Content Website
Do you have a website perhaps focused on:
- Online marketing
- Entrepreneurship
- Small business
- Software tutorials / reviews
If you do, and your audience could benefit by running webinars, then promoting EasyWebinar could be a good fit.
Your Social Accounts
As above – perhaps you have social accounts relevant to marketing, entrepreneurship, small business, software tutorials…
Whether it’s a:
- YouTube channel
- Facebook page
- Facebook group
- Instagram account
- Twitter account
- LinkedIn account
If you have people reading the content you share through those accounts, and if they’re a fit for EasyWebinar, that’s a great promotional approach.
Item #3 – How to keep growing your commissions
Here’s what’s happening with one of our affiliates:
March:
- Referred 12 new active customers (not just trials, but paying customers)
- One cancellation
- So 11 new customers generating commissions (on top of all the existing referrals)
April:
- Referred 12 new active customers
- Three cancellations
- So 9 new customers generating commissions (on top of all the existing referrals)
May (so far):
- Referred 15 new active customers
- Five cancellations
- So 10 new customers generating commissions (on top of all the existing referrals)
So just in the last three months, this affiliate has added 30 new customers to their account, and they’re getting paid 30% (soon 40%) of all that revenue.
It’s like compound interest, but far more powerful. Continuing to send us referrals means your commissions could just keep going up.
And since some customers stay with us year after year, and since we’ve been paying affiliates since 2016, we could be sending you commissions every month for a very long time to come.
And remember – after a customer gets to 12 months, very, very few leave. At that point, they’re actively using the platform, it’s working for them, and they just stay month after month, year after year.
So very simply – to keep growing your commissions, you need to keep sending more referrals, than cancellations.
Of course, you can stop promoting at a certain point, and allow us to keep sending you commissions month after month, year after year. That’s what we’re doing with some affiliates.
But, very slowly your commissions will drop, since customers do eventually cancel, cards expire…etc.
So if you want your commissions to keep growing, ongoing promotions are very helpful. If you’re happy with where your commissions are and are prepared to allow them to slowly decrease over time, then feel free to stop promoting at that point.
I would suggest – maybe choose a goal for the number of active EasyWebinar customers you’d like to have paying you commissions, map out a plan for that, and put it into action (along with a timescale for reaching that goal).
For example – by the end of 2023, you’d like to have 20 active EasyWebinar customers paying you commissions. And if all 20 of those were Pro customers, at 40% you would be getting $1,600 a month in commissions ($19,200 a year) from us.
So if that kind of goal appeals to you, and you have an effective marketing approach to get there, we’d love to send you generous commissions every single month.
