Come funziona il programma di affiliazione di MagicPost?
|The MagicPost affiliate program pays you a commission on each payment made by the people who subscribe to MagicPost through your link. The person you refer gets a discount on their MagicPost plan. The program runs on the Dub partner platform and is open to every MagicPost account, with or without a subscription.
The MagicPost affiliate program lives in the Affiliate program tab of the Referrals and affiliate program page, which you open from the profile menu. The Referrals tab of the same page is a different offer, reserved for customers with an active subscription: the friend gets a discount for life, and you get a free month for each friend who stays subscribed.
A free month earned through MagicPost referrals is one month of your subscription, or one seat's month when your plan has several seats. It is granted after your friend's second monthly invoice, or 14 days after your friend pays an annual plan.
MagicPost referrals give up to 12 free months in any 12-month period. You must have an active subscription when the month is credited to you.
What you earn and what your referral gets
A commission for you. The MagicPost affiliate commission applies to each payment of a referral, not only to the first one. The program page in MagicPost describes it as a lifetime commission.
A discount for your referral. A person who subscribes through a MagicPost affiliate link pays less for their MagicPost plan.
This article does not quote the commission rate or the size of the discount, because both can change. MagicPost shows the current values in the Affiliate program tab of the Referrals and affiliate program page. The discount attached to a link can also differ from one partner to another, in size and in duration.
Which profile menu entry opens the program
The MagicPost profile menu shows a single entry for referrals and the affiliate program: Earn money. The label is the same for every account. The tab it opens depends on your account:
An account with an active subscription of its own: the entry opens the page on the recommended tab, or on Referrals when there is no recommendation.
A Dub partner, whether the application is approved or still pending, and a former member of the MagicPost ambassador program: the entry opens the Affiliate program tab.
Every other account, such as a free account, a free trial, or a subscription set to end: the entry opens the Affiliate program tab.
A MagicPost member whose seat is paid by an organization does not have the entry. The entry is also absent from the MagicPost profile menu in the admin view of an organization. The old /affiliates address of MagicPost leads to the Affiliate program tab.
How to join the MagicPost affiliate program
Open the profile menu at the bottom of the MagicPost sidebar and select Earn money. With an active subscription, the page can open on Referrals: select the Affiliate program tab.
In the Affiliate program tab, click Join the program. MagicPost opens its partner portal on Dub in a new tab: partners.dub.co/magicpost.
Create your partner account on Dub. Until Dub approves it, the MagicPost tab shows Application submitted and states that your link and stats will appear once your partner account is approved. If Dub rejects your application, the tab goes back to the offer and its Join the program button.
With the MagicPost interface in French, Join the program opens the French version of the Dub portal.
Referrals or affiliate program: the comparison and the recommendation
Until you apply, the MagicPost Affiliate program tab shows the offer, the Join the program button and a Referrals or affiliate program? table.
The MagicPost comparison table covers who you offer each program to, what they get, what you earn, who it's for, and where you track your earnings. Referrals are for subscribed customers and pay you in free months. The affiliate program is open to everyone and pays a commission in money.
For a subscribed MagicPost customer who is neither a Dub partner nor a former ambassador, MagicPost recommends one of the two programs. Its tab gets a Recommended badge. In the Affiliate program tab, its column of the table shows Recommended for you, and a sentence under the table explains the choice. The page opens on the recommended tab.
MagicPost recommends the affiliate program when your connected LinkedIn profile has both a large follower count and high engagement, in reactions and comments, on your latest posts. In every other case, MagicPost recommends referrals, including when no LinkedIn account is connected to MagicPost.
Your affiliate dashboard in MagicPost
Once Dub approves your partner account, the MagicPost Affiliate program tab becomes your affiliate dashboard. At the top, Share your link shows the affiliate link Dub has assigned you, with a Copy the link button, next to what sharing it earns: the lifetime discount of your audience and your share of each payment, monthly or annual. See what your audience will see previews the sign-up banner that shows your name and the discount. At the bottom of the page, My Dub space: payouts and payout account opens your Dub partner space. MagicPost reads the dashboard figures from Dub directly. Amounts are shown in US dollars, the currency Dub uses.
The top of the MagicPost affiliate dashboard shows Earned with your link, your total commissions since you joined. Below it, MagicPost shows what the current month has earned so far, with a Best month badge when the current month has earned more than every month before it.
Next to that total, the MagicPost affiliate dashboard shows four figures: the commissions that come in every month, your paying subscribers, your sign-ups, and the clicks on your link. A chart shows your earnings by month.
The Last 30 days line of the MagicPost affiliate dashboard sums up the past 30 days: what your link earned, with its clicks, sign-ups and new customers. When your earnings went up compared with the 30 days before, the line shows the increase. It also names the people who subscribed in that period.
When nobody signed up with your link in the past 30 days, a reminder above the dashboard says so and tells you how long ago your last sign-up was.
MagicPost recognizes your Dub partner account by the email address of your MagicPost account, so use the same email on Dub.
If MagicPost cannot load your figures from Dub, the Affiliate program tab shows a simpler view: your link and four figures (clicks, sign-ups, customers, commissions) that MagicPost copies from Dub once a day, with the date of the last update. That view has Open my Dub dashboard and View my payouts buttons.
Follow up with people who signed up but have not subscribed
The MagicPost affiliate dashboard lists the people who created a MagicPost account with your link and have not subscribed yet. Three tabs sort them: To follow up, Recently followed up and All. For each person, the table shows their full name, when the account was created, their Usage of MagicPost, the end date of the free trial, and the date of your last message, or Not yet. Each person appears with their LinkedIn photo when they have one, and with their email address in place of a name when they have not connected LinkedIn. Click a name to open that person's LinkedIn profile in a new tab.
The Usage badge counts the posts, hooks and ideas each person generated: Hasn't tried it, Tried it a bit, Tried it properly or Uses it a lot.
To write to these MagicPost sign-ups from the affiliate dashboard:
In the To follow up tab, click Write on a row. To write to several people, check their rows and click Write to them. To write to everyone you can follow up with, click Follow up with everyone.
Edit Your message. The preview next to it shows the exact email the first person receives.
Click Send to, followed by the person's first name or the number of sign-ups.
You write the follow-up message yourself. MagicPost suggests a default text in the first person, which you can change. The message is limited to 600 characters, and [first name] is replaced by each person's first name. Links and email addresses are removed when the message is sent. MagicPost keeps your text for the next time.
MagicPost sends the follow-up by email on your behalf, under the sender name "your first name via MagicPost". The email address of the person is not shown in the message. With the Replies go to box checked, which is the default, replies arrive at your email address, and the person sees your address if they reply.
Below your text, MagicPost adds a reminder of the lifetime discount, the trial end date when the person is on a free trial, and a View plans with your discount button.
MagicPost allows one follow-up message per sign-up every 30 days. A person you wrote to recently moves to Recently followed up, and the row shows the date from which you can write again. Follow up with everyone skips these people. Each person can also unsubscribe from these messages, and MagicPost then sets them aside when you send.
Your customers and what each one earns you
The MagicPost affiliate dashboard lists the customers who subscribed through your link, from their first payment, in three tabs: Still subscribed, Canceled and All. The customers who earned you the most come first. As in the sign-ups table, a customer's name opens their LinkedIn profile in a new tab.
For each customer, the MagicPost affiliate dashboard shows Subscribed since, what Each payment earns you (per month or per year), Payments received, Total earned and the Next payment. When a customer moved from a monthly to an annual subscription, Each payment shows the annual amount with the date of the switch, and Payments received counts the monthly payments made before it. For a customer who canceled, the last column shows the cancellation date, and what you already earned stays counted.
Payouts stay on Dub
Payouts of the MagicPost affiliate program stay on Dub. Dub pays your commissions and keeps your payout account and payment details. At the bottom of the MagicPost Affiliate program tab, My Dub space: payouts and payout account opens your Dub partner space.
What your referral sees
A person who opens MagicPost through an affiliate link usually sees a banner on the MagicPost sign-up page. The banner names the partner and the discount, and adds "Create your account, your discount applies at checkout." The discount is attached to the link: your referral has to arrive through your link before creating the MagicPost account.
The Previous program tab for former ambassadors
MagicPost ran an ambassador program before the affiliate program moved to Dub. A former ambassador whose old link earned revenue sees a third tab, Previous program, on the Referrals and affiliate program page. The tab shows the earnings of the old link: Total earned, Already paid and To be paid. Total earned and To be paid are amounts excluding VAT.
The MagicPost Previous program tab also lists the people who signed up with your old link, with a Payments only filter. MagicPost pays these commissions against an invoice: send it to finance@magicpost.in with the billing information shown in the tab. The amount due becomes payable once it reaches the minimum shown under To be paid.
