Yesterday, Substack finally introduced a program that Beehiiv has had for like a year now: referrals.
Referrals are cool and are a great way for a newsletter to grow, especially one like mine that is more niche. So, I’m turning them on.
Now, the industry-standard way to do referrals is to offer something free and easily-scalable as a reward. Exclusive discords, an e-book, a course, a job board, etc. I don’t want to do that for two reasons:
Nobody cares about a half-assed e-book, course, discord, or job board.
I don’t want to write a half-assed e-book, course, discord, or job board.
So, instead, I’m rewarding people who refer my newsletter with something everybody wants: cold hard cash.
That’s right people. If you get people to subscribe to Stove Top, you earn money. Here’s how to do it:
1. Share Stove Top. When you use the referral link below, or the “Share” button on any post, you'll get credit for any new subscribers. Simply send the link in a text, email, or share it on social media with friends.
2. Earn benefits. When more friends use your referral link to subscribe, you’ll receive special benefits.
Get $5 for 5 referrals
Get $15 for 15 referrals
Get $25 for 25 referrals
And that’s it. It’s really the easiest money you’ll ever make.
So get out there and help me help you.
