Skill: leooooooow/affiliate-outreach (version 1.0.0)

--- name: affiliate-outreach description: Generate personalized outreach messages and value propositions to recruit new affiliates and commission-based partners for ecommerce products. --- # Affiliate Outreach Building an affiliate program from scratch — or scaling an existing one — requires constant outreach to new creators, bloggers, and commission-based partners. Generic "join our affiliate program" messages get ignored. Effective outreach is specific, leads with the creator's own content, and makes the value proposition immediately obvious. This skill generates personalized, conversion-optimized outreach messages that reference the creator's niche and audience, clearly state your commission structure and product fit, and end with a low-friction call to action that makes it easy to say yes. ## Use when - You're launching a TikTok Shop affiliate program and want to send your first batch of 20–50 outreach messages to TikTok creators in your product category without spending hours personalizing each one from scratch. - You're an affiliate manager trying to recruit YouTube reviewers or Instagram reels creators for a Shopify product and need outreach copy that speaks to their specific audience (e.g., fitness enthusiasts, home décor fans, budget beauty shoppers). - Your current affiliate roster has plateaued and you want to re-engage inactive affiliates with a message that acknowledges their past performance and presents a new incentive to reactivate. - You're entering a new product category (e.g., adding a supplement line to your existing kitchenware brand) and need to recruit a fresh set of health and wellness creators with outreach that leads with category fit rather than brand name recognition. ## What this skill does This skill takes your product details, commission structure, and a description of the creator profile you're targeting, then generates a set of three outreach message variants — one for cold DM on TikTok, one for email, and one for a creator marketplace application message. Each variant opens with a specific reference to the creator's niche or a compliment tied to their content style, transitions into a one-sentence product relevance hook, presents the commission offer with concrete earning potential (e.g., "at our $42 AOV and 15% commission, a single well-performing video can earn $200+ in a week"), and closes with a clear, single next-step CTA. The skill also generates a short FAQ block you can paste into your follow-up message for creators who ask about product sending, exclusivity, and approval process. ## Inputs required - **Product name, price, and top benefit** (required): The product you're recruiting affiliates to promote, its retail price, and the single most compelling benefit — for example, "NestCool Portable Air Cooler, $89, cools a room in under 3 minutes without installation." - **Commission structure** (required): Your flat commission rate or tiered structure — for example, "15% per sale, no minimum, paid monthly via PayPal" or "base 10% with 20% for creators over 50 sales/month." - **Target creator profile** (required): Description of the creator type you're targeting — niche, platform, follower range, and audience demographics — for example, "TikTok home-living creators, 10K–200K followers, 25–45 female audience in the US." - **Brand tone** (required): Whether messages should be formal, friendly, enthusiastic, or minimal — so the outreach voice matches your brand personality. - **Unique selling hook** (optional): Any standout differentiator such as viral social proof, celebrity endorsement, or trending status — for example, "featured in a viral 4M-view TikTok last week" — this significantly lifts response rates when included. ## Output format The output includes three sections: (1) TikTok DM variant — a 120–160 word message optimized for the TikTok creator inbox character limits, with a casual, direct tone; (2) Email outreach variant — a 200–260 word message with a subject line, opening hook, value proposition paragraph, and a single CTA button-ready sentence; (3) Creator marketplace pitch — a 80–120 word application-style message formatted for platforms like TikTok Creator Marketplace, Shopee Affiliate, or Aspire. Additionally, a 5-item FAQ block covers: product sending policy, exclusivity requirements, payment schedule, content approval process, and affiliate link setup instructions. ## Scope - Designed for: Ecommerce brand owners, affiliate managers, and marketing agencies managing creator recruitment - Platform context: TikTok Shop, Shopify affiliate programs, Amazon Associates, Shopee Affiliate, platform-agnostic - Language: English ## Limitations - This skill generates message templates — you will still need to manually personalize the creator name and any content-specific references for highest response rates. - Does not access live creator databases or follower counts; you must identify and supply the list of creators you plan to contact. - Commission math examples are illustrative — verify your actual margin and payout mechanics before sending to ensure the earning potential claim is accurate.
