Choose an odd number of tools to feature (we recommend 5), make any affiliate links bold to make them easily identifiable, and pin this post to the top of your blog to keep it top of mind.

Be sure to use affiliate and referral links for all the tools you feature to increase your revenue earning potential.

Hop on Instagram Stories and do a quick roundup of tools that you’re using and loving. Make sure to tag @flodesk (as well as any other brands you highlight) to increase the chance of getting your content reposted and in front of even more people.
