Affiliate Marketing Resources
Working as an affiliate marketer or influencer is hard work. There’s always much more work to be done. Here’s some of the products and services I use to make my job easier and more profitable. Check them out!
Canva Graphic Design Platform
Canva is an graphic design platform that is used to create social media graphics, presentations, posters, documents and other visual content. The app includes templates for users to use, and the platform is free and offers paid subscriptions such as Canva Pro and Canva for Enterprise for additional functionality. Canva recently launched a video editing tool.
Canva Plans
Users can choose from Canva Free or Canva Pro. We recommend Canva Pro because of the huge volume of included templates, free photos, graphic elements, videos and audio tracks. Using these, users can quickly create beautiful photos and videos and not worry about copyright violations.
Fiverr
Fiverr is the most popular global online marketplace for freelance services. If you need someone to help you with simple or complex tasks Fiverr can help you find someone to perform those tasks affordable. If you’re a freelancer that has skills to offer Fiverr can help connect you with people ready to pay you for your skills. Many affiliate marketers and influencers use freelancers to help with social media posting and video production. The possibilities are endless. You owe it to yourself to give Fiverr a look to see if there’s any work you can outsource or earn money providing for someone else. You can check out Fiverr HERE.
Bluehost Web Hosting
Many affiliates and influencers have their own websites. Some use websites post their offers and others use them to market themselves to brands and customers. I’ve used Bluehost for several years for my website hosting and domain name reservation. Bluehost is one of the largest web hosting services and is an official WordPress hosting provider. They have plans for as little as $2.95 per month!
PayPal
An affiliate marketing or influencer business can be started on a very small budget. There’s no need to open a business bank account when starting out. I’ve used Paypal for years to receive commissions and payments. With the Paypal debit card I can pay for virtually anything online or in person. Have one account to track income and expenses makes accounting and tax preparation much easier. When you sign up using my special invite link and spend your first $5, we’ll both get $10! I also love how using Paypal can earn me cashback rewards at major retailers and service providers.
Facebook Scripts
If you manage a Facebook Group or Page you can easily take care of mundane and repetitive tasks with Facebook Scripts. It’s a browser extension that automatically performs actions such as these:
- Send reminders to invited users
- Remove members from the group
- Approve or Decline pending posts, keyword alerts, member-reported content in the group
- Approve or Decline members with filters
- Like all group posts
- Delete all posts from the group
- Click ‘Add Friend’ buttons in the group
- Unblock members
We’ve been using Facebook Scripts for about a year now with no issues. They offer different options depending on your individual needs. You can check them out here.

Genius Link
Around 85 percent of shoppers use their smart phones while shopping. When affiliate links don’t open up in a retailer’s app, the user has to log in to the retailer’s site in an internet browser. This causes a large number of buyers to abandon the purchase. When we started using GENIUS LINK to force affiliate links to open in the retailer’s app Our Amazon sales doubled!
There are several affiliate platforms built in to Genius Link’s website. Setting up your affiliate information for these platforms is quick and easy. The reporting features can help you understand where you clicks are coming from and how to improve link performance.
It’s FREE to let other people use your Genius Link account with an Amazon Affiliate ID that you assign them. This is perfect for people with virtual assistants and Facebook group moderators. You can start a FREE 14 day trial of Genius Link HERE.
CinchShare
We recently switched to a different post scheduling software. CinchShare allows us to schedule dozens and dozens of posts to several Facebook Groups at once. Users can schedule posts to Facebook, Instagram, Pintrest, Linkedin and Twitter (X)! We like being able to save posts for quick reposting later and the ability to save multiple text templates. Both of these features save us a lot of time. CinchShare does have smart phone apps! Click HERE to give it a closer look.
Text Blaze
Bid farewell to tedious typing and repetitive tasks. Text Blaze empowers you to create reusable snippets for frequently used phrases, email templates, or even entire documents. Insert text instantly with just a few keystrokes, saving time and effort. It’s perfect for those of us that create dozens of social media posts, create websites and more!

I’m currently using the Pro Plan with the Text Blaze Chrome Extension. With this plan I can save 1,000 different snippets with up to 25,000 characters each.
