Phase 2 of the Partner Playbook

Your first month. Turn posting into a routine.

A single post is luck. A routine is a business. This is the four-week system that turns last week's momentum into a rhythm you can run without thinking about it — and starts the one channel that keeps paying you long after you post.

📅

The rhythm you're building toward

3 posts a week — carousels, before/after mockups, demo screenshots, rotated so you never repeat yourself.
Blog1 post a week — permanent, keeps ranking and earning for you long after it's published.

That's the whole discipline. Everything below is how to get there by the end of the month.

Week 1 — Lock the cadence Week 2 — Claim your topic Week 3 — Rotate formats Week 4 — Reach out & review
1
Week 1 of the month

Lock in a cadence you can actually keep.

If you've just come from your first 7 days, you already have a link that works and 3 posts live. Now make it a schedule instead of a burst.

1

Put the cadence on your calendar

3 social posts + 1 blog post a week, as a recurring block — same days, same times, every week. A cadence you can sustain beats ten posts followed by three silent weeks.

2

Bank a few posts ahead

Grab 2–3 captions from the Copy Bank now and queue them. Having posts ready removes the only reason a busy week breaks the streak.

✓Goal: the weekly cadence is on your calendar, and you're not starting from zero each morning.
2
Week 2 of the month

Claim your first blog topic — permanently.

This is the step most partners skip, and the one with the longest payoff. A social post fades in a day; a blog post keeps ranking on Google and earning for months.

1

Open the Partner Topic Library

Visit /partners/blog-topics — it auto-unlocks once you've clicked your own referral link. Filter by lane (local business or professional) and pick one topic nobody's claimed yet.

2

Copy the prompt, generate, publish

The prompt already has your tracked link baked in — paste it into any AI, get back a complete post, add the suggested images, and publish it on your own site or blog. The 5-minute guide walks through every step if it's your first time.

3

Submit it to claim the topic for good

Paste your live URL back in the library. Once verified, the topic is exclusively yours, permanently — and we feature it on /partners/articles with a backlink to you.

✓Goal: one blog topic claimed and submitted — your first always-on sales page.
3
Week 3 of the month

Rotate your formats so the feed never repeats.

Sameness is what makes a feed easy to scroll past. Cycle through three distinct looks so every post feels new, even when the message is consistent.

1

One of the share-ready carousels

Post the Local Business or Professionals carousel as-is, with your link in the caption. Zero design work.

2

A Proof Studio mockup

Build a fresh before/after, comparison, or testimonial card in Proof Studio — a different tab from last time (stat card, "vs Wix," case study).

3

A raw demo screenshot

Straight from the Showcase — sometimes the unpolished, real thing converts better than a designed post.

✓Goal: three different-looking posts out this week, same offer, no repetition fatigue.
4
Week 4 of the month

Reach out directly, then review what worked.

Posting builds reach over time; direct outreach gets you conversions now. Close the month by doing both, then let the data tell you what to keep doing.

1

Message 5 businesses you already know

Think of five local businesses with a weak or missing website — people you know personally or as a customer. Send a friendly, specific message with a demo that fits their industry. Warm intros convert far better than cold reach, and you already have them.

2

Review your tagged links

Your dashboard shows clicks and conversions per tag. By now you'll see which platform, format, and audience actually moved — follow the data: pour more effort into what's working and quietly drop what isn't.

✓Month 1 goal: a repeatable weekly rhythm running on its own, your first blog post live and ranking, and a clear read on what converts for your audience.

What's next

You now have everything the recurring system needs: a cadence, a claimed topic, a format rotation, and real data. The monthly plan is the checklist you run every month from here — it's short, because most of the hard part is already built.

Keep the rhythm going.

Month 2 and beyond is a short, repeatable checklist — not a new system to learn.
