📈 Check out the case study provided by our affiliate. Offer: behappy2day.com

Platform: Instagram
Niche: Dating
Leads Generated: 500+
Conversion Rate: 7.6%
Timeframe: 1 Month
Offer Type: International Dating CPL + Sales KPI of min. 2%


🎯 Objective

My goal was to generate high-quality leads for a dating affiliate program using only Instagram as a traffic source. I focused on engagement-first content to build trust, followed by a soft-sell strategy that converted effectively.


🔧 Strategy Breakdown

1. Niche Positioning: Emotion + Aspiration

I didn’t just promote dating apps—I promoted connection, adventure, and the dream of romance abroad. The account was built around themes like:

  • "Find Love Abroad 💌"

  • "Real Stories of Long-Distance Relationships 🌍"

  • "Dating Tips from Expats & Travelers"


2. Content Pillars

I followed a content plan that focused on value, emotion, and conversion:

Day Type Content Type CTA
3x/week Viral Reels (funny or emotional) Link in bio to dating story/offer
2x/week Carousels with dating tips CTA in last slide + link in bio
2x/week Real screenshots & testimonials Story highlights w/ affiliate link

3. Story Funnels

Instagram Stories became my secret weapon. I used:

  • Polls: “Would you date someone from another country?”

  • Quizzes: “What kind of international partner suits you?”

  • Countdowns to "new matches" or “live events”

Each engagement tool funneled viewers into the DMs or link in bio, where I tracked clicks and sent pre-landers.


4. Affiliate Funnel Setup

I didn’t link directly to the offer. Instead:

  • Link in bio → Pre-lander (short love story, FOMO elements, CTA to join)

  • Pre-lander → Dating site signup

This method warmed up the user before they hit the offer page—boosting conversions dramatically.


🧠 Key Tools Used

  • Canva – for branded carousels and Story design

  • Linktree / Beacons – for organizing offers in bio

  • Meta Insights – for audience tracking and post timing


💡 Lessons Learned

  1. Emotion beats logic in dating offers. Focus on storytelling, not features.

  2. Story views convert better than posts—don’t sleep on Stories!

  3. DMs are underrated: When people replied to Stories or polls, I sent custom messages and soft-sold the dating platform.

  4. Consistency builds trust: Even without ads, I built momentum through daily interaction.
