Beginner's Guide: How to Make $500/Month with Affiliate Marketing

In partnership with

Today we’re going to talk about organic growth traffic, reddit affiliates, and AI lead enrichment.

First I'll show you how to make coffee money from affiliate links via Reddit and automate sales with Clay and Lindy.

Ready? Let's go.

How to make $500 a month from Reddit

A while ago I came across a YouTube video about finding high volume subreddits for product reviews with affiliate links. It was a guide to make $1K/month using affiliate links.

I also noticed two things:

  1. When people search for something via Google they look for Reddit links

  2. Google has apparently been pushing Reddit links

I decided to try it out myself -- looked up one of the affiliate programs I'm already a part of and went through Reddit to include reviews with my affiliate links.

Turns out you can make decent bread with this if you find the right high volume subreddits and drop comments.

How to get leads from free tools

Veed brings in 1M+ site visitors a month, how? Via free tools.

Users search for a specific tool like "Add subtitles to video" and Veed offers the tool to do exactly that with a funnel to sign them up as a user.


You can do the same for your startup, I do it with Humblytics as well.

Here's how to create your own free tool:

  1. Go to ChatGPT/Claude or AI of your choice - explain your product and have it generate free tool ideas for your website.

  2. Ask it to create a simple product requirement documentation on the free tool.

  3. From there, have it generate the code for you using plain vanilla HTML/CSS/JavaScript.

Assuming you use Webflow or Framer you can embed the code into your Website.
Boom, you're done! Free tool for users and a funnel to get them to sign up.

Automating sales and outreach

If you want to automate sales and build AI agents, check out this tool:

You can automatically enrich the data and avoid any manual processes to find the data you need to verify and start the outreach.

I think then I'll couple this with Lindy AI and do some automated outreach to help save time and close deals.

Hope you learned a few things and ready to make some bread.

Let's go.
