If you know someone who loves vintage items—whether they are a reseller, dealer, picker, or collector—do they know about WorthPoint? Our paid subscribers have access to our Price Guide database of over 800 million items, complete with a history of sales prices and analytics. There’s also a Dictionary of vintage items and categories, a Marks database of maker’s marks to help identify pieces, a digital Library of resources, and a Blog of articles written by experts in the field of antiques and collectibles. We love sharing our resources on our website, and now our members can participate in that effort.
A CHANCE TO JOIN OUR AFFILIATE MARKETING TEAM
WorthPoint is now offering an opportunity for our users to earn money and make connections in the vintage community. It’s called the WorthPoint Affiliate Program. Any current subscriber who refers a new member will earn 10% of any subscription purchased or renewed for as long as the new user remains a subscriber. It’s a passive way to earn money because you’re simply passing on your knowledge of the WorthPoint database and tools to others in your industry.
Connections and networking are essential in any business, and vintage, collectibles, and antiques are no exception. In fact, this retail space depends heavily on word of mouth, information sharing, and creating communities of collectors and fans of items old and new.
Who better to share these benefits than those who currently use them? Our members already know that we put the information they need right in the palm of their hand with our mobile app, which now includes the ability to search our PriceGuide with a picture of an item. The visual recognition feature can help anyone quickly identify an item, research a maker’s mark, and find information with a simple snapshot on their phone. The mobile app is a powerful tool that members can activate anywhere, especially at the point of sale. Whether a thrift store shelf or barn auction, WorthPoint has information for buyers and sellers to help them make informed decisions.
BENEFITS OF BECOMING AN AFFILIATE
But wait, there’s more. WorthPoint has added marketing tools for anyone participating in the Affiliate Program. Once you sign up as a participant, you become a member of the WorthPoint community. The group provides access to professional marketers and other sales professionals, including exclusive webinars with Will Seippel, our CEO, and other industry experts. The program gives you instant access to all the tools you need to succeed as a WorthPoint Affiliate member. Access includes:
- Banners and materials for affiliate marketing.
- Full online support when you need it.
- A webinar platform so you can co-host any online events.
- Advanced notice of marketing campaigns and codes for sharing specials.
SPREAD THE WORD
There are so many ways to let others know about WorthPoint. Suppose you are already active on social media feeds and platforms related to vintage and collectible items. In that case, you’re already someone who can easily share the benefits of a WorthPoint subscription with others by:
- Posting about WorthPoint in active forums.
- Use Twitter/X, Bluesky, or your favorite platform to tell others about the exciting features available through WorthPoint.
- Facebook/Meta and Instagram groups and pages are great places to share details about the subscription service affiliate program with your followers.
- LinkedIn is another marketing option for WorthPoint. It lets you publicize your collections and expertise to thousands of other buyers, sellers, and collectors.
- If you are into creating review videos or other content, you can include Worthpoint features. Providing your affiliate link in the video itself, as well as the description, can bring in new members.
- Another option is to share the affiliate link while making WorthPoint referrals in live chat sessions.
For each new subscriber you bring on board, you’ll receive 10% of whatever package they purchase. The percentage you earn is in effect for the lifetime of the member’s account. If the member cancels their subscription, commission earnings end. Affiliate members will need a PayPal account to receive their commissions. Members are paid quarterly, depending on the amount of commission earned.
CONNECT WITH VINTAGE FANS AND EXPERTS
Will Seippel is passionate about curating, purchasing, selling, and preserving vintage items. He has a wealth of experience to share with WorthPoint members, creating communities of people worldwide who can share information, connect with others, and learn while they earn. Regarding the new Affiliate Program, he stated
We want our members to know how much we appreciate them and how grateful we are for their business. We know they like and use our products, but this program allows us to give them an extra ‘thank you.’ Each of our partners has something to offer that would be useful to anyone who buys, sells, or collects antiques and vintage pieces. Whether it’s advice, merchandise, or other products, being a part of this community is a benefit we can all share.
