How to Make Referrals

Step 1: Access Your Referral Codes

Navigate to the Referral section from your Dashboard or go directly to the referral management page. You'll see:

  • Your unique referral code(s)
  • Referral link(s)
  • Current tier and progress
  • Earnings summary
  • Referral templates
Your Referral Link
https://ceo.ai/signup?ref=YOUR_CODE_HERE

Multiple codes available: You may have different codes for different campaigns. Track which codes perform best and use specific codes for specific audiences.

Step 2: Choose Your Sharing Method

CEO.ai makes sharing easy with multiple built-in options:

Step 3: Use Referral Templates

CEO.ai provides ready-to-use templates to make sharing effortless. Save time with pre-tested, effective copy optimized for conversions.

Template Categories:

Short-form (Social Media)

🚀 Just built a complete web app in under an hour with @CEOdotai's AI agents. No joke. Game-changing for developers. Try it: [referral link]

If you're still manually coding everything, you're working too hard. CEO.ai's collaborative AI agents changed my workflow completely. Get started: [referral link]

From idea to deployed app in 30 minutes. That's CEO.ai. Seriously, try it: [referral link]

Medium-form (Email, LinkedIn)

Subject: This AI tool actually delivers

I'm usually skeptical about AI dev tools, but CEO.ai is the real deal.

Instead of one AI doing everything (and often failing), CEO.ai uses specialized agents that collaborate. An architect designs your project, then executors build each piece. It's like having a development team that works at AI speed.

I've built [specific project examples] and saved [X hours/days].

If you're building software, this is worth checking out: [referral link]

You'll get bonus credits to start, and I'd love to hear what you build.

Customizing Templates:

  • Add personal experience: Replace "[project]" with actual projects you've built
  • Include specific results: "Saved me 20 hours on my last project" instead of "saves time"
  • Match your voice: Adjust tone to fit your personality and audience
  • Add context: Explain why this matters to your specific audience
  • Include visuals: Screenshots, GIFs, or videos of your actual work

Step 4: Track Your Performance

Monitor your referral success with comprehensive analytics:

📊 Clicks

Track how many people clicked your link and which channels drive the most traffic

📊 Sign-ups

Monitor account creations and conversion rate from click to sign-up

📊 Conversions

See paying customers and conversion rate from sign-up to paid

📊 Earnings

Total credits earned, average per referral, and tier progress

Use data to optimize: Double down on what works, adjust or abandon what doesn't, test different messages, and experiment with new channels.

Best Referral Strategies

1

Authentic Sharing

Share your genuine experience. Build something real first, show (don't just tell) with screenshots and videos, and be honest about limitations. This builds credibility and trust—people believe you because you're not being "salesy."

Why this works: Credibility, trust, and real value demonstration. Your audience can see tangible results, making them more likely to try CEO.ai themselves.

2

Targeted Outreach

Identify who benefits most from CEO.ai and tailor your message to each audience:

👨‍💻 To Developers:

"Focus on architecture and business logic, let AI handle boilerplate"

🚀 To Founders:

"Build your MVP in days, not months. Validate ideas faster."

📚 To Students:

"Learn by building real projects. See professional code patterns in action."

🎨 To Designers:

"Turn your designs into working prototypes without deep coding knowledge."

3

Content Marketing

Create valuable content that naturally includes your referral link:

  • • Tutorial content: "How to Build [X] with CEO.ai"
  • • Comparison content: "CEO.ai vs. Traditional Development"
  • • Case studies: "How I Built [SaaS Product] in [Timeframe]"
  • • Educational content: "The Future of AI-Assisted Development"

Include your referral link naturally in video descriptions, blog post footers, pinned comments, and resource sections.

4

Community Building

Create spaces around CEO.ai where you become the go-to expert. Build a Discord/Slack community, maintain social media presence with regular posts, start a newsletter with tips and showcases. Include your referral link naturally in welcome messages and newsletters.

Benefit: Establish authority, build loyal audience, create natural referral opportunities, and provide ongoing value to your community.

Maximizing Cashout Value

Understanding Cashout

What CAN Be Cashed Out

  • Credits from successful referral conversions
  • Credits earned by your custom agents

What CANNOT Be Cashed Out

  • Credits you purchased for your own use
  • Promotional credits from CEO.ai
  • Bonus credits (check specific terms)

Optimizing for Cash Income

Build multiple income streams by combining referrals with agent creation:

Example Scenario:

Referral earnings $500/month
Agent earnings $300/month
Total Cashable Income $800/month

Flexibility: Use credits for your own projects (saves money), cash out for direct income, or mix both strategies.

Common Questions

How much can I realistically earn?

Could vary widely and can only be estimated at this time. Casual referrers: $50-200/month. Active content creators: $500-2000+/month. Top affiliates: $5,000+/month. Depends on audience size, conversion rate, and tier.

When do I get credited for a referral?

When the referred user makes their first paid purchase and any subsequent purchases.

Can I refer myself or use multiple accounts?

No—this violates terms of service and can result in account termination and forfeiture of earnings.

Is there a limit to how many people I can refer?

Generally no—unlimited referrals allowed. The more the better!

Do I keep earning if my referral continues using the platform?

Yes.
