Welcome and thank you for joining Master’s Hand Collection Affiliates! I’m so glad you’re here and I can’t wait to get to know you and your ministry better!

Hi, I’m Connie, your Affiliate Manager and the Artist and Writer behind the artwork and Bible Study Resources you’ll be selling through this Christian Affiliate Program.

You are always welcome to email me at connie@mastershandcollection.com I’m here to help you in any way I can.

There are two goals within this program and I’d like to share them with you now.

The goal of Master’s Hand Collection is to show God’s hand to everyone who needs a little grace in their life! And who doesn’t need some grace every now and then? Amen?!

I created the products you’ll be promoting to show believers and the unsaved alike who God is and how much He loves them!

When they view my artwork or read a devotional, I want them to see God’s hand reaching out for them!

I want them to feel the deep love He has for them.

And I want their relationship with Him to flourish.

That’s the message of Master’s Hand Collection in a nutshell. And it’s a message I hope and pray you’ll share with your audience. We’ll talk more about how to do that a little later.

The goal of Master’s Hand Collection Affiliates is a little different. It’s to help you flourish in your ministry.

Whatever your ministry is, God has placed it on your heart for a reason. And He wants you to succeed in it!

Likewise, God has placed a call on my heart to create a way for other like-minded Christians to follow God’s call on their lives.

It doesn’t matter whether you share the love of Jesus across the internet or through brick-and-mortar stores, the goal is the same… to keep your business and ministry up and running so the truth of who Jesus is can be known. And the way to do that is to make sure you’re bringing in enough money to pay the bills.

I know, in Christian/Faith blogging circles there’s a question as to whether or not it’s okay to make money. So, I’d like to show you a woman who ran a business, made money, and did it God’s way…

She seeks wool and flax,
And willingly works with her hands.

She considers a field and buys it;
From her profits she plants a vineyard.

She perceives that her merchandise is good,
And her lamp does not go out by night.

                            Proverbs 31:13;16;18

This is the story of the Proverbs 31 woman. She’s a strong independent woman who loves God and her family. And whether you’re a woman or a man, I’m sure we both have a lot in common with her. I encourage you to read more about her in Proverbs chapter 31, starting in verse 10. I promise we’ll learn more about her in the coming months and together begin to see how God wants us to run our business and/or ministry as she did.

Media Assets

Pictures work extremely well because customers like to see what they’re buying before they purchase. So, I’ve created different sizes of pictures for you to use in your promotions. Feel free to use them anywhere on your website (in blog posts, sidebars, headers, etc.), in emails, or on social media.

To find a picture:

  1. Use the Dropdown Box to choose the category of products you would like to promote. Currently, there’s Bible Verse Art, 10 Minute Devotions, and Planners.
  2. Once you decide on a picture click on the (…) on the lower right of each picture. A box will appear and then you can download the media, share on social channels, or copy HTML.

Please remember that you CANNOT change the Master’s Hand Collection logo as per the Program Terms and Agreement. Thank you. 😊

How to Add an Affiliate Disclaimer

Including an Affiliate Disclaimer on your website and in blog posts where you have affiliate offers is mandated by the FTC! It’s the law. And it’s extremely important to maintain compliance with all FTC regulations as they pertain to our affiliate relationship. Failure to do so will force me to end our affiliate partnership, and I don’t want to do that! 😥

Don’t worry it’s super simple to comply with the FTC’s regulations. Just copy and paste this disclaimer onto your website or blog post (Wherever you put your affiliate links)…

Affiliate Disclaimer: I’m proud to be an affiliate partner of Master’s Hand Collection. If you purchase a product, I may receive a commission at no additional cost to you.

Payments

Cuz, getting paid is super important!

Affiliate commissions will be paid on a net 30 basis for the previous month’s sales.

All payments will be paid out via PayPal and you MUST provide a valid email where your PayPal payment can be processed.

You can check on your past and future payments in the Affiliate Dashboard in the “Payments” tab.

When to Contact Your Affiliate Manager?

I love to hear from you! I want to be your partner and advocate in this journey we’re on together to spread to good news of God’s hand working in our lives.

If you need help, please feel free to contact me at connie@mastershandcollection.com

I try to answer each email ASAP, but I promise to get back to you within 24 hours on weekdays, or the next business day if you email on the weekend.

So, what can I not help with?

I’m here to help you be successful as a member of Master’s Hand Collection Affiliates. I’m happy to answer any questions you have about the affiliate program, creating links, commissions, etc.

However, I cannot help with website building software such as WordPress. I refer you to your web hosting service (GoDaddy, HostGator, BlueHost, etc.) for questions regarding WordPress or other website building tools.

Disclaimer: I am not a web developer so I will not assist in changing code on your website. And believe me, you don’t want me to. If you need help in this area, please consult a trained website developer. At this time I cannot recommend anyone, but if I find a reliable developer I will be happy to pass his or her name along.
