Markable Boosting Program FAQs
What plan do I select for deep linking?
You’ll need to select the $199.99 Boosting Special plan to gain unlimited access to the Markable app. This plan is exclusively available to boosting clients while they are actively boosting.
Please note that if boosting stops, you will need to choose a plan that best fits your business needs. The standard rate for unlimited access for non-boosters is $499. [See our pricing model here.]
How long does it take to get started?
The timeline varies for each creator. While we can’t guarantee an immediate start date, it does take some time to fully set up the program on your end and within our system. However, we’ll make sure you get started within the month after completing all the necessary setup.
What should I expect in terms of earnings?
Earnings vary for each creator, so there’s no set amount to expect. Our goal is to achieve a return of 1-1.5x on every boosted piece of content to continue testing. If a piece falls below this range, we’ll pause it and pivot to new content.
Content is typically tested for 3-4 days to gauge performance before deciding whether to continue boosting it for a longer duration.
How much content should I expect to submit to start and ongoing?
You should plan on submitting around 10-15 pieces of content to start. Thereafter if the program is going well, you should submit at least 5-10 pieces every Monday.
How do I use my tracker?
Your tracker is a very important element of our partnership. You will use the tracker to:
Submit content on a regular basis on the “Content” tab (Weekly). Please do not delete any old content.
Use the “Boost Summary” tab to track the overall ad spend and your earnings.
Use the “Daily Tracker” tab to track daily ad spend and daily ROI.
Use the “Data” tab to track daily ad spend and ROI of each individual piece of content.
Please note that some items are automated while others are manually updated weekly. Some data will not be accurate daily.
How do I reimburse Markable for ad spend and split?
At the beginning of each month, you will receive an invoice for the reimbursement and split. This invoice is payable after you have received your earnings from the retailer. We only request the reimbursement after you have been paid out. This will be payable by wire transfer and is due within 5 days of receipt.
What are some of the commonalities with successful creators?
We have seen success with creators in the Managed Program that have bonus opportunities along with elevated commission rates. We do encourage you to ask your rep to increase bonus tiers if you are seeing success. This ensures that we are constantly reaching higher goal opportunities for you. If you would like to ask for a higher bonus opportunity, that is entirely up to you. But, please note that if you do pause boosting you may not reach those tiers with your organic sales.
Does boosting decrease my organic sales?
From time to time, organic sales can fluctuate given the sales cycle. It is also important to note that algorithms can change the organic reach. Adding boosting is a common practice among many successful creators. They understand that adding in boosting only increases their reach and increases sales. There may be a shift in your organic reach at the beginning of the boosting and that is normal. This will balance quickly and you will start to see each process performing well.
Yes! The Acceleration Program is fully compliant with both Amazon and Walmart’s Creator and Affiliate Program terms. We ensure that all activities, including social ads and content promotion, adhere to the guidelines set forth by both platforms, such as proper use of affiliate links, transparency, and FTC disclosure requirements. We do not engage in prohibited practices like bidding on branded keywords (e.g., "Amazon" or "Walmart") in paid search, and we make sure that all links go directly to the platforms without using intermediary sites.
How does Markable determine its audiences to target with my content? If I share specific audience demographics, can this be included?
Markable uses lookalike targeting, which focuses on reaching new audiences that closely resemble your current engaged followers. This approach helps maximize ROI by targeting users who are likely to engage with and convert from your content. If you share specific audience demographics, we can incorporate that data to further refine the targeting and improve campaign performance.
Can you give an example of a creator's success?
Sara is the hypothetical Creator.
Before boosting with Markable, Sara earned a $4,000 flat bonus, and $16,000 commission.
While boosting, Sara earned $75,000 in commission with her Markable link, and $16,000 in commission with her other links.
Sara’s bonus increased to $19,000.
Markable spent $40,000 in advertising.
Elevated flat bonus = $19,000 - $4,000 = $15,000 (new bonus - old bonus)
Earnings = $75,000 + $15,000 = $90,000 (direct commission + elevated flat bonus)
Profit = $90,000 - $40,000 = $50,000 (earnings - ad spend)
Creator makes extra $25,000 (50% of profit)
Creator pays to Markable $65,000 (ad spend pay back + 50% of profit)
What will happen if the idea list linked to my ad gets deleted?
Once ads are launched, we don’t currently have a daily process for checking the landing page. If the list is ever removed or updated, please give us a heads-up right away. You’ll be responsible for ensuring all submitted content and the idea list remain active and ready for boosting. Hopefully, that’s not too much trouble.
Will the Boosting Program work for me?
The success of this program depends on your ability to consistently produce high-quality Reels for us to boost. On average, creators in our managed program see a success rate of around 12%, with the top 10% reaching up to 40%, while the bottom 5% can be as low as 0%. Quality and consistency make all the difference.
To give you an idea of the scale required to hit major milestones:
To reach the $1M bonus tier, we need to spend $2,000 per day, which requires about 4 successful pieces of content daily (each capable of scaling up to $500/day before ROI drops).
At a 12% success rate, this means we’d need around 33 pieces of content ready at the start of the month.
If the success rate increases to 20%, we’d only need 17 pieces to hit $1M—or 170 pieces to hit the $10M goal.
The takeaway: The higher your success rate, the fewer pieces are needed—and the faster we all grow together!
What recent market trends and changes should I be aware of?
During last year’s shopping season (October–early January), most of our creators saw a 2-2.5x return on ads, with many reaching $100K/month in total earnings after paying Markable. This was a strong win-win for everyone involved.
However, early this year, many creators reported a drop in organic traffic. While this may feel concerning, it’s likely tied to broader market changes. Meta had a major round of layoffs in early February (widely reported), and several creators have noticed algorithm adjustments since then.
To help you better understand these changes, we’ve created a video session that explores Meta’s algorithm updates from December. A few creators who participated in the session have maintained strong organic traffic, and we hope their insights will be helpful and encouraging.
Why does the current month sometimes appear less profitable?
Sales generated at the end of the month, after hitting the highest tier, roll into the following month. This can make the current month appear less profitable than it actually is.
That said, as long as your content boosting ROI is greater than 0.9 (for the Home Program) or 0.8 (for the Cross Category Program), you should see a net gain overall.
The Home Program bonus adds an additional 0.1 to the ROI, while the Cross Category Program bonus adds 0.25.
This means your total ROI should exceed 1.0 when the bonus is factored in.
However, if the content boosting ROI falls below 0.85 for the Home Program or 0.75 for the Cross Category Program, it’s unlikely to be profitable—even with the bonus included.
