No an affiliate yet? You can earn up to 40% for every referral you send our way...
Treat Others as You Want to be Treated
We're follow the "Golden Rule" kind of people. But before we start, we want to make clear that this is in NO WAY a substitute for legal counsel. You may still get in trouble if you do not do your own due diligence and make sure you're conducting yourself properly. These are general guidelines only to help communicate ethical affiliate practices that we hope you will put into place. We reserve the right to remove anyone from our Affiliate program who violates these practices, or the terms of the Affiliate Agreement.
1. Using Testimonials + Disclaimers
EXPLANATION: Any testimonials must have a disclaimer warning that the success they're hearing about doesn't guarantee their own success. You also must have express permission from the person giving the testimonial, and it is strictly against our Terms of Service and the Affiliate Agreement to solicit our customers for testimonials.
NOT OKAY
BETTER!
2. Honest + Clear Advertising
EXPLANATION: If you are using the word FREE you must clearly state what the pre-requisites are for the free gift or bonus.
NOT OKAY
I'll give you this cool thing at NO COST!!!!
BETTER!
I'll give you this cool thing ABSOLUTELY free WHEN you sign up for X at $197.
3. Claims + Substantiation
EXPLANATION: Any claims must be substantiated (in other words, it must true and backed by evidence), as well as a disclaimer that just because you did it, doesn't automatically mean they will.
NOT OKAY
How you can earn $4000 a month passively by investing only a few pennies a week.
BETTER!
How I earned $4000 by investing early in crypto and why I still invest a little bit every single week.*
*Your results will vary based on your effort, education, and market factors beyond our control.
4. Affiliate Funnels + Links
EXPLANATION: Many social platforms don't allow this kind of thing anyway, but even if they do, you have a responsibility as an Affiliate to ensure that your prospects know YOU and your business first, before enrolling into our Course or buying any or our products or services. You also must disclose that you are an affiliate in all cases.
NOT OKAY
Driving traffic straight to an affiliate link
BETTER!
Driving traffic to your own affiliate website, social media, or funnel if you use online marketing tools.
5. Trademarked Terms + Advertising
EXPLANATION: If an average internet visitor can't tell between your site, offering, ad or otherwise and our official site, then it has to be changed. It is absolutely unacceptable to market in such a way that it confuses the buyer. That means it must be stated that you are an affiliate, and not use third party trademarks (ours and others). Bidding on our trademarked terms, for example, will be immediate grounds for removal from the affiliate program.
NOT OKAY
Pretending to be us by bidding on trademarked terms or designing web pages, funnels, or social media that exactly replicates ours.
BETTER!
Create a bridge web page, funnel, or social media that's yours, and once they understand who you are and what you do, send them to our site.
