How I Got Accepted To RewardStyle After Just ONE MONTH

If you’re a fashion blogger (or you’re dreaming of becoming one), you gotta know about RewardStyle!

RewardStyle is an affiliate platform where bloggers can EARN MONEY from the links they post! There are TONS of stores and brands on there. And it’s not like ShareASale or other affiliate platforms where you have to state your case, and show your stats, and apply to each and every brand separately. You just have to apply one time (well maybe a few times if they decline you at first!), and once you’re accepted, that’s it! You’re approved to use links from ANY BRAND that is on the RewardStyle platform (and like I said before, there are TONS- even Amazon is on there!)

If RewardStyle isn’t ringing any bells, then maybe their customer facing app the LiketoKnow.it app does! RewardStyle is the company, and LiketoKnow.it is their app / shopping platform . The consumer downloads the app and then follows her favorite bloggers in there and can easily shop their Instagram posts and blog posts! It’s a win-win because I know as a customer myself, I don’t like to have to hunt down where to find the cute top my favorite blogger posted today. I can simply head to the LiketoKnow.it app and get a direct link and boom! Add to cart! This app is probably a lot of husbands out there worst nightmare coming to life! (Sorry not sorry, babe!)

As a blogger, getting accepted is actually easier than you think, but it’s going to take some work. There are a lot of myths and misinformation out there about how to get accepted. There are no exact guidelines, but THESE tips are what I found work, and I was able to get accepted after just ONE MONTH of starting my fashion blog! One of the biggest myths I have seen out there is that you have to wait at least four months to apply. This is totally not true if you have enough content and follow all these rules I am listing below!

Warning- if you apply and you get declined, you won’t be allowed re-apply for another THREE MONTHS! So you want to make sure you are ready the first time you apply! So you don’t have to do it again :)

Consistency- RewardStyle want to see that you post OFTEN (5-6x per week should do the trick!)
Engagement- RewardStyle doesn’t seem to care about how many followers you have, but they DO care about how many are ENGAGING with your content!
Quality- Blurry, dark, or poor quality photos are not gonna cut it! RewardStyle wants to see high quality photos!
Sharing- The idea behind RewardStyle is for the consumer to easily find what the RewardStyle bloggers are sharing. Make sure you are actually sharing what you are wearing or using with your followers! Not just a picture of you with a one line caption! Tell us where your outfit is from!
Referral- It ups your chances if you get a referral from someone who is already approved by RewardStyle! If you don’t know anyone, feel free to reach out to me! If I think you’re ready I’ll happily refer you! (shoot me a DM @champagneandsavings!)

My very first RewardStyle post! After just ONE month of creating content on Instagram! I was SO PUMPED. (YOU MAY ALSO NOTICE I HAVE CHANGED MY NAME SINCE THEN! STILL ME!!)

Happy Blogging!!!
