Welcome to FreshStore

Welcome aboard. FreshStore has been helping people build affiliate stores since 2010, and this Profit Playbook is where we have put everything we know about making one earn.

The good news first: you are not building anything by hand. Choose a niche and AI puts the whole store together for you, categories, products, articles, design and all, in about five minutes. There is no stock to buy, nothing to ship, no customers to look after and nothing to refund. Your job is picking a direction and then bringing people to it.

Two minutes on how the pieces fit together, and you are away.

Your account and your stores are separate

Your account at my.freshstore.com is where you create stores, register domains, set your affiliate tags, manage your billing and see your AI chips.

Each store you create has its own dashboard, with its own products, articles, design and analytics. You open a store's dashboard from your store list.

Almost every "where do I find this?" question comes down to that split. Anything about the business of running FreshStore lives in your account. Anything about a particular shop lives in that shop.

Where to start

Work through the next few guides in this section in order. They will take you from a brand new account to a live store with your affiliate tags set.

Once your store exists it comes with its own Recommendations page inside the store dashboard that walks you through design, content and going live. Follow it. It knows what your particular store still needs.

Then come back here for the rest of the Playbook, which is about the part that actually makes money: getting traffic and turning it into sales.

How to use the Playbook

Work through the categories on the left roughly in order, and apply what you read as you go rather than reading it all first. You may skip some guides depending on your niche, and each guide will tell you when it might not apply to you.

There is no rigid path that suits every store. A health supplements store and a home decor store need very different traffic strategies, and we will say so where it matters.
