Attention Bloggers: Are you aware that Tailwind has launched a new pricing structure that helps you earn more!

This blog post is meant to help “Show you the money.” I couldn’t resist using the featured image for this post (also, the 1st featured pin below) when in Canva I looked up “Show me the money” and that picture came up. I realize it’s a little sexist, but for the purpose of this post, it fitted the bill rather nicely.

“Disclosure: Bear in mind that some of the links in this post are affiliate links and if you go through them to make a purchase I will earn a commission. Keep in mind that I link these companies and their products because of their quality and not because of the commission I receive from your purchases. The decision is yours, and whether or not you decide to buy something is completely up to you.”

If you haven’t heard already, Tailwind is making a BIG change to the Tailwind Affiliate program! Tailwind is now running on a new platform, Impact. (Don’t miss out! Take some time to review and sign up with Impact today.) The deadline to join Impact is Friday, May 14th, 2021. (More details about that below).

Here’s what you’ll get when you switch to Impact:

Opportunity to earn higher commissions
Extra content bonuses
More accurate tracking
Robust crediting logic
Enhanced reporting capabilities
New ad types
A new publisher dashboard, so you can easily track your performance and payment status.

The deadline to join Impact and complete the changes on your site will be May 14th, 2021.

After that, Tailwind will no longer be providing support or offering bonus commission through ShareASale.

But don’t worry – you will still receive recurring commissions for those who have already referred through ShareASale!

After months of testing, talking to their members, and taking in your feedback, Tailwind’s announced the new pricing plans, which have members upgrading faster and spending more, meaning more of a commission for you!

With Tailwind’s new pricing structure, members can get access to Pinterest and Instagram for one price.

They also now have an all-new free plan (not a free trial!) that will give your audience more flexibility to use Tailwind, even if it’s not in their budget quite yet – called Free Forever.

Here’s how you can take advantage of promoting the new Affiliate Tailwind program:

As you continue to promote Tailwind, join Impact for Tailwind’s brand new affiliate program, (by the way that replaces ShareASale) offering higher commission opportunities and more bonuses. You can sign up for their affiliate program here!
