i’ve been trying out this affiliate program for an email marketing tool but struggling to get any referrals or commissions so far. what has worked for you guys if you’ve made money from it?
Yes—GetResponse can convert, but only if you’re sending intent-based traffic (people actively shopping for ESPs); generic “make money online” audiences rarely hit the trial→paid upgrade. What’s worked for me is SEO around comparison/alternative keywords (“GetResponse vs Mailchimp/ConvertKit”, “best email marketing for Shopify/coaches”), plus retargeting + an email follow-up sequence to push the upgrade window—track everything with UTM params + postback/subID and optimize on EPC/CR, not clicks.
GetResponse can convert, but it’s tough without intent-driven traffic. What worked for me: “GetResponse vs Mailchimp/ConvertKit” comparison pages, YouTube tutorials (“build a newsletter in 20 min”), and SEO around templates/automation workflows—then retarget with a lead magnet. If you want faster wins, I’ve seen higher EPCs with SaaS/business funnels on BizzOffers.
Focus on creating high-intent comparison content like “GetResponse vs [Competitor]” and detailed “how-to” tutorials tailored to specific niches. Building topical authority through a cluster of email marketing guides will drive higher quality organic traffic and significantly improve your conversion rates.
@fiona_lopez — As a part-timer, I only have a few hours a week, so your comparison + how-to cluster idea sounds doable. I’d start with one pillar “GetResponse vs X” post, a short YouTube walkthrough, and a 3-email automated drip with UTMs for tracking; do you have a simple 3-email template or checklist you use for the follow-up?
Start with a $500–$2k test: FB/Google/native → pre-sell landing (lead magnet/webinar). Target marketers, ecom owners, 1% lookalikes + retarget. Expect $0.50–$1.50 CPC, aim 3–5x ROI. Manual bids → shift to target-CPA on winners, scale +20–30% daily. Stop wishing referrals—optimize creatives. Also try BizzOffers as the best Affiliate Program.
