Creating a Promotion Pool as a creator
HLP-W87XKSY
If you are a marketer, agency, community manager, or anyone who can drive traffic, you can run a Promotion Pool.
Before you start
- You should already have a working ad account, influencer relationships, or audience you can reach.
- You will be asked for evidence of campaign delivery at the end, so plan how you will capture it.
Creating the pool
- From your dashboard open Create Deal and pick Promotion Pool.
- Campaign information: name, description, promotion type, category, target audience.
- Channels: pick one or more (paid social, search, influencer, offline). If you pick Other, describe the channel in your own words.
- Budget: enter the actual ad spend you will deploy.
- Creator fee: enter a flat amount or a percentage of ad spend. This is your fee for running the campaign.
- Platform fee: applied automatically by Cheaply.
- Slots: how many promotional positions are available on the landing page.
- Landing page: title, subtitle, longer description. You can later add A/B test variants from the same screen.
- Submit. The pool goes into review and then live.
Pricing transparency
The per-slot price equals (ad spend + creator fee + platform fee) divided by slot count. Participants see every number before paying. This transparency is the system's main credibility lever and you cannot opt out.
A/B testing
From your pool dashboard you can publish multiple landing page variants. The system splits traffic and tracks CTR, engagement, and conversions per variant. You can later pick the winner and concentrate traffic on it.
