Knowing the ideal Hello Audio customer makes your promotion specific instead of generic, which is the single biggest factor in affiliate conversions.

You're looking for creators who:

If a creator in your audience fits one of those patterns, Hello Audio is genuinely solving a problem they have. That's where your link belongs.

Start here if you want to put your link to work without a big content lift.

Your Affiliate Welcome Packet includes a Promo Toolkit with grab-and-go email and social copy plus branded graphics sized for every platform. If you want to promote Hello Audio without writing from scratch, the swipe copy gets you most of the way there in minutes.

Personalize the swipe copy with your own voice and a specific reason you recommend Hello Audio. Verbatim posts perform worse than the same copy with one or two sentences of your own context.

If you have a "tools I use" or "resources" page, add Hello Audio with a short description and your affiliate link. Resource pages compound over time. Every new visitor sees the recommendation, and the link sits there earning indefinitely.

If you don't have a resource page, this is a good reason to build one. A short page listing the 5-10 tools you actually use, with one-sentence descriptions and affiliate links where applicable, is the lowest-effort highest-return affiliate asset most creators ignore.

If you're a Hello Audio user, you can automatically include your affiliate link in your episode show notes, embeddable players, and subscribe pages. Every piece of content you publish becomes a passive affiliate touchpoint. See How do I add affiliate links to my feeds? for the setup walkthrough.

These take more setup but compound much more over time.

This is the highest-leverage option for affiliates who teach digital products, marketing, tech and systems, or content strategy. Hello Audio offers a pre-built 20-minute training on the power of private podcasts that you can drop directly into your existing courses, memberships, or group programs. Submit a short request form and you'll get the training file, transcript, MP3, a private podcast subscribe link, and editable Canva slides if you want to record your own version.

You're embedding an evergreen affiliate touchpoint inside content people are already paying you to consume. Every new student or member becomes a potential referral, automatically. See How do I use the Hello Audio affiliate guest training? for the request and setup walkthrough.

Anytime you're talking, writing, or recording about completion rates, audience engagement, course delivery, or how people actually consume content, Hello Audio is contextually relevant.

Examples of natural mentions:

Lead with the problem your audience has, then mention Hello Audio as the tool that addresses it. Drop your affiliate link inline.

If you use Hello Audio yourself, your story is the most powerful pitch. Write or record a short piece on what problem made you try Hello Audio, what you set up first, what changed for your audience or business afterward, and what you'd recommend to someone considering it.

If you don't use Hello Audio personally, you can do the same with a client's story (with their permission) or a hypothetical "if I were running a course right now, here's how I'd use Hello Audio" piece. The structure is what matters: problem, solution, result.

When prospective customers research Hello Audio, they're often comparing it against options like uploading MP3s to their course platform, building a private podcast in another tool, or just sticking with video-only delivery. A piece that walks through the comparison honestly ranks well in search and gives your audience a practical decision-making frame.

Examples of useful angles:

These are the kinds of pieces that earn affiliate income for years, not just at launch.

Pick one or two approaches that fit your existing content style and audience. You don't need to do everything. Affiliates who go deep on one approach (a thorough resource page, a strong comparison piece, the embedded guest training) typically earn more than affiliates who do a little of everything.

Your affiliate dashboard tracks every click and conversion, so you'll see which approach is working within a few weeks. Lean into what's earning, drop what isn't.

Check whether your audience actually has the problem Hello Audio solves. If most of your audience are service providers without existing content libraries, Hello Audio is a mismatch and no amount of promotion will convert. Refocus on the segment of your audience who fit the ideal customer profile (creators with content their audiences aren't finishing).

The simplest framing: "Hello Audio turns your existing content into a private podcast your audience can listen to anywhere, which dramatically increases completion rates." Customize from there based on the specific creator type you're talking to.

Tie every mention to a problem your audience already has. If Hello Audio shows up because it solves something your audience was already struggling with, it doesn't read as promotion. If it shows up out of context, it does. The cure is relevance, not silence.

Most paid ads are allowed, with one important restriction: you can't bid on Hello Audio's branded search terms in paid ads (no bidding on "Hello Audio" or close variations in Google Ads). Other paid promotion (display ads, sponsored content, social ads targeting interests) is fine. Follow FTC disclosure rules and check the affiliate agreement for full details.

Yes. FTC guidelines (in the U.S.) and similar regulations in other countries require disclosure when you share affiliate links. A simple "I'm an affiliate, which means I earn a commission if you sign up through my link, at no extra cost to you" works fine. Place it near the link or at the start of the relevant content.

No. Affiliates can't register domains, subdomains, social handles, page names, or app names that include "Hello Audio" or variations. You can use Hello Audio's name and logos within your existing channels with proper attribution, but you can't create a presence that suggests you're an official Hello Audio channel.

Discount codes are handled case-by-case. If you have a specific audience or launch in mind, email [email protected] and the team will discuss what's possible.

Tracking is automated through the affiliate platform, and the team doesn't manually assign or reassign referrals (including for existing Hello Audio users). The cookie has to be set on the visitor's device before they sign up for the referral to be tracked.

Sign up from your client's computer if possible, or sign them up normally without your affiliate link and email [email protected] with their signup email addresses. The team can manually associate the referral in those specific cases.
