# Affiliate course promotion

The **Affiliate course promotion** template lets you promote your content and encourage people to sign up. This template is useful if you want to:

*   send an invitation to the leads who are tagged as interested in the courses you offer,
*   send a follow-up message to everyone who has signed up,
*   send a reminder to everyone who hasn’t signed up,
*   assign tags to contacts based on their responses.

Here’s what you’ll need to configure the elements and publish the template as a workflow:

*   automation messages or messages that can be used as automation messages, e.g. an invitation, a thank-you message, and a reminder,
*   (Optional) tags. You can create tags as you’re building the workflow but its best to have a basic tagging plan set.

Setup
-----

All greyed out elements need to be configured. The **Wait** action is preset to recommended delay. The **Link clicked?** condition is preset to any newsletter/any link. You can modify the settings to better suit your needs. Click an element to open its **Properties** tab.

1.  The **Subscribed via** condition is preset to any list and any method. Optionally, you can modify the settings to better suit your needs. Under the **Properties** tab for the element, use the drop-downs to narrow it down by list and method.
2.  For the **Link clicked** conditions, decide if you want to keep the default general settings or use the drop-downs to narrow down the condition to a specific message and link.
3.  For each of the **Send message** elements, use the drop-downs to select the message you want to use.
4.  For the **Tag** elements, select the tags you want to assign to track your customers.
5.  Click **Publish** when you’re done setting up the template or **Save and exit** if you want to finish editing the template later (it will appear as a draft on the **Manage workflows** page).
