(It\u2019s a trick question. Obviously, we all do.)\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With that in mind, who doesn\u2019t love some referral link income? Not only is this delicious income that you get by \u201cdoing nothing,\u201d it\u2019s a great feel-good example of giving back while getting back.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sounds amazing, right? Why are we not all doing this, right?! Well, because it\u2019s not as \u201cdo nothing\u201d as one might think \u2013 but it\u2019s one hundred percent worth the effort. Let me explain.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>The Referral Game: Also a Hustle\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are not utilizing referral programs (like the one we have on Loyalfans), then you are missing out. However: Though there are ways to make a comfortable income or significant supplement from referral programs, it is not exactly \u201cpassive.\u201d It takes skill and work.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are not utilizing referral links<\/span> <i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and then<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> putting the work in to optimize that income, you are missing out. Even worse, you may end up pissing others off by making this your game but refusing to play. For instance, I see this a lot: People recruiting new artists with promises of help and then doing nothing more than just sending an occasional infographic or making a telegram group. This checked out \u201chustle\u201d just makes you look like you need a lesson in both business and ethics.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I could easily go on various platforms and recruit newbies with screenshots of income and promise them the world for signing up. I could have subs spam platforms with my referral link. But if I stop there, what good does that do? If my referrals are not earning, then I am not earning. If I help optimize their earnings though, then my earnings go up. Their success is my success.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let\u2019s crunch some numbers shall we? Say that I get 100 performers to sign up under my referral link. Then say that, within three months, I have put the time in with each individual artist one-on-one and helped all 100 performers reach (or surpass!) their goal of averaging $1,000 per month in income. That third month, what am I bringing in? 100 x 1000 =\u00a0 a whopping $100,000 total brought through the platform under my refs. I get 5% or a cool $5,000 of that. Monthly.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Then let&#8217;s say just to keep things simple that my refs keep that average up for a full year. What am I bringing in before I pay my taxes? $60,000 USD \u2013 or, because I am Canadian, $76,921.20 CAD.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most referrals on the various platforms are the same or similar, but what is super cool and unique about Loyalfans is the customer referral. If my little pervs are out paying others, which I encourage them to do as often as they wish, I get 5% of what they are spending on other models. Bringing your customers over to Loyalfans is a win, regardless of any situation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is beneficial for you on multiple levels to play the game \u2013 and I want to see you win, so let\u2019s talk about strategies.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Referral Strategies<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now that we understand that you have to do\u2026 something\u2026 to make the referral game work, what exactly is that something? Let me share what I do.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Beauty Domain<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Do you own YourWorkName.whatever? Stop reading right now, go get it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I love my beauty domain as much as I love money. I bring it everywhere I go. It serves many purposes and is hands down my best adult industry working purchase ever. I forward traffic from it directly to whichever referral link on whichever platform I am directing my traffic to. It\u2019s the watermark on all of my content. If I get pirated, the link is still there.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Coach your Referrals\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What are you able to give to your referrals to optimize their earnings? This is where skill sharing and coaching come in.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a photographer, I can offer advice to any of the genres and a plethora of looks. As an award-nominated dominatrix, I can speak to the psychology behind the kinks and teach consent and safety, as well as speak in regard to the community. I am also a writer, so I can be of help with clip descriptions and photo captions. Being that I am Canadian, I can help other Canadians figure out their payment issues. I am also a mother, so I can speak to time optimization as well. There are so many other things I could list here too, but you get the idea.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This sarcastically humble list actually proves my point. I can and do teach my referrals a lot because I can offer a lot.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Be Choosey &amp; Communicate<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ask yourself this before handing out your referral link out to anyone and everyone: Is so-and-so worth your time? Meaning, you are going to have to put the time in to support this new creator at the beginning. Is this time going to pay dividends later?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I recommend having a conversation with anyone you are about to coach up before you begin. Anyone who is doing this is taking a risk by investing their time and potential income on you (the same as you are them). Make sure to get on the same page.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>In Sum<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To summarize, my main advice is this: shop around, communicate, and be transparent. Think of referral relationships \u2013 be you the referrer or the referee \u2013 as a savings account with each other. Find someone who offers the most on what you are willing and\/or able to put in.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You are earning your 5% by guiding others and helping them earn. Find a way to make it so you both win!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-3542 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.loyalfans.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/all-features-03.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"selectionShareable\">\u2014<\/p>\n<p class=\"selectionShareable\"><strong>About Loyalfans.com:<\/strong> <i>Loyalfans.com is a premium social media fan club that enables influencers, creators, artists, public figures, and all types of compelling people to interact with and share various forms of original content with their most loyal fans.<\/i><i> Creators\u2019 loyal fans can become supporters in exchange for exclusive benefits offered via the platform, facilitating an opportunity to turn individual ingenuity and influence into a thriving business.<\/i><\/p>\n<p class=\"selectionShareable\"><i>Loyalfans invites all people and personalities to create, share, and connect via the platform, thereby manifesting opportunities to earn revenue and grow.
