Introduction and Kickstarter Referral Platform Q?
Posted: Sat Jul 04, 2015 4:05 am
Hi Guys,
My name is Ben - im putting together a campaign for my st - take a look at our launch page : http://bit.ly/1CgH7PP (love your feedback on it, we;ve just finished it)
Excited for a great campaign - we've spent a year working on our social platforms, email database and building interest for a great campaign (fingers crossed).
My question relates to referral tracking inside the KS dashboard and its capabilities. (ive searched and read heaps already on these boards).
We are in a niche where referrals / affiliate marketing is massive - fitness/sports supplements.
Instagram accounts within this space have 1-3M followers and a few have approached us to help the KS campaign via referrals / link tracking.
What im thinking is:
1. Have a $1 pledge amount which registers referrers in the KS system.
2. They can share via their own URL/link to post on their own insta account.
3. We track all conversions/pledge amounts and pay % post-campaign.
My question is, can we track the total amount each referral sends our way, in order to pay a cash payment at the end of the campaign (once we're funded).
If the above wont work what are some methods people have done this?
Ive read through http://www.therooststand.com/pages/hack ... -leftronic but its too complicated - we dont need a leaderboard.
All we need is to see which referrer has sent us which backer and the total $$ referred so we can pay them accordingly.
Can this be done?
Thanks so much in advance guys.
