How to Use This Guide

Once your affiliate account is activated (see the Getting Started article if you haven't yet), use these tactics to introduce ModMount to your audience and generate immediate revenue.


Email Newsletter Campaigns

Draft an email introducing our partnership. Highlight specific services and include your 10% discount code.

Example: "I've partnered with ModMount for precision optic cuts. Upgrade all your non-optics-ready slides today. Use code [YOURCODE] for 10% off: [link]. "

Pro tip: Send version A to 10% of your list, version B to another 10%, track results for 48 hours, then send the winner to remaining 80%.

Example results: 3,000 subscribers → 300 clicks → 30 orders


Social Media Content

Post before/after transformations, milling quality close-ups, or customer testimonials. Include disclosure and code in first two lines.

Effective formats:

  • Before/after photos of stock vs custom-milled slides

  • Video walkthroughs of completed work

  • Customer testimonials

  • Educational content ("3 reasons to get an optic cut from a specialist")

Example results: 5,000 followers → 100 DMs → 25 orders


In-Person Instruction

For instructors, integrate ModMount during equipment discussions. During sight drills: "ModMount does precision optic cuts that maintain zero."

Implementation:

  • Hand out cards with your code

  • Post-class: Email attendees with your code as a resource

Example results: 12-student class → 6 interested → 3 orders


In-Store and Retail Traffic

Use physical space for passive and active referrals.

Tactics:

  • QR code at checkout linking to ModMount with pre-applied code

  • Include business card with your referral QR code in every customer bag

  • Mention ModMount when customers ask about slide work you don't offer

  • Train staff to hand out your code during relevant conversations

Example results: 300 monthly customers → 150 cards distributed → 30 monthly orders


Direct Personal Outreach

Message 3–5 high-intent contacts who recently discussed slide work, new pistol purchases, or optic mounting.

Template: "Hey [Name], remembered you wanted an optic cut on your [gun]. I partnered with ModMount—excellent work, fast turnaround. Use [YOURCODE] for 10% off: [link]."

Example results: 10 messages → 4 responses → 2 orders
