The day someone joins through you

Somebody has joined HBA through your link. In about 15 minutes you'll send them one email from your own inbox. It gives them their own start page, the two dates that matter, and one next step. Four steps. Then five short notes over the next 75 days, about 5 minutes each.

Checked against HBA on 25 Sep 2026. HBA changes its screens now and then. If a label differs, look for the closest match.

Spot the sale · about 2 minutes
Find their ID and what they own · about 3 minutes
Build their email on your fulfill page · about 3 minutes
Send it from your own inbox · about 2 minutes
The 14 days after, and three check-ins · about 5 minutes each
The four emails · the text, if you want to read it first

Disclosure: you earn a commission on what this person bought. Your email to them says so in one line, and anything else you send them should too. HBA pays one tier: you earn on what they buy, and nothing on the people they bring in later.

Before you start

A desktop or laptop. The fulfill page and Contacts/CRM are easier on a big screen.
Your dashboard bookmark. Your setup page links to it. The fulfill page opens from it.
The inbox your HBA account emails. That's where the sale email lands.

Costs: nothing. You send one email from your own inbox. It doesn't use Emailer credits.

Step 1: Spot the sale (about 2 minutes)

Step 1 of 4 · you finish knowing whether this sale needs you

HBA emails you on every sale. The subject line is this, with their name on the end:

Hot diggitty money-dancing DOG you just made a SALE from <Customer Name>

The body opens with "Boom Shaka Laka!". Scroll past the celebrating. The block at the bottom is the part you need:

Customer: (their name)
Email: (their email address)
Phone: (their phone number)
Product: HBA Funnel Builder
Billing Type: New Sale
Commission Amount: $20.00

The bottom of an HBA sale email, with the "Billing Type" line circled. UI as of Sep 2026.

Read one line: Billing Type.

Billing Type says	What you do
`New Sale`	Carry on to Step 2. This one needs you.
`Rebill`	Nothing. An existing customer paid again.
`New Sale`, and the Product line is an Emailer credit pack	Nothing. A credit pack is $15 and pays you $5. It has no bonus and needs no email.

That's it. Most sale emails are rebills, so most days this is a two-second glance.

Set up a filter once (about 5 minutes)

The lines at the bottom are the same shape every time. A filter can find the ones that need you.

In Gmail, click the search options icon at the right of the search box.
In Has the words, type "Billing Type: New Sale" with the quote marks.
Click Create filter. Tick Apply the label, and make a new label called HBA new sale.
Click Create filter again.

Gmail's filter box with "Billing Type: New Sale" typed in Has the words.

Done. New sales now get their own label. Rebills stay out of it.

Important: don't filter on "Boom Shaka Laka". That's the first line of the body, not the subject. A subject filter on it finds nothing, and zero sales looks exactly like no sales.

If you ever miss one

Open thehba.app/affiliate/my-commissions. Click any row to expand it. Their email is inside.

Important: stay on the All tab. A new sale lands under Hold first and moves to Paid later. The Paid tab hides the sale that needs you today.

Step 2: Find their ID and what they own (about 3 minutes)

Step 2 of 4 · you finish with their affiliate ID and their badges written down

You need two things the sale email doesn't give you: their affiliate ID, and every product they own.

Open the HBA Emailer. Click Contacts/CRM.
Search for the email address from the sale email. Open their record.
Read the colored badges. Write down each one you see.

A customer record in Contacts/CRM, with the four product badges circled.

Badge color	Product	Tick on your fulfill page
Green	Let's Goal	Let's Goal
Orange	Funnel Builder	Funnel Builder
Purple	Premium	Premium
Blue	Financial Literacy Academy	FLA
Premium, on the 14-day trial	Premium	Premium. A trial counts: they own it and can earn on it while it lasts
`FF 2`, `FF 5` or any other `FF`	A Funnel Fest event ticket	Nothing. Ignore it

Note: badges are a set, not a ladder. Plenty of people own FLA without Premium, or Premium without Funnel Builder. Tick exactly what you see, badge for badge.

Note: the sale email tells you what is new, not what they own. An upgrade shows a New Sale for the upgrade alone. Their record shows the full set.

Now their affiliate ID. Open your HBA customer list (Affiliate › My Customers) and find their name. The ID beside it is usually a number, like 15165. Copy it. Don't type it.

Your HBA customer list with one customer's numeric ID circled.

Important: a wrong ID shows no error anywhere. It sends their commissions to somebody else. Copy it, then paste it.

That's it. You have an ID and a list of badges. Next, the email builds itself.

Step 3: Build their email on your fulfill page (about 3 minutes)

Step 3 of 4 · you finish with their email copied, both links already inside

Open your dashboard bookmark. Click What to do when someone signs up. Your fulfill page opens.
Paste their ID into Their affiliate ID. A line under the box says "Link and email are ready for …".
Under What they own, tick the badges you wrote down in Step 2.
Click copy on the email box.

The fulfill page with an ID pasted, three boxes ticked, and the copy button on the email box circled.

Important: Funnel Builder is ticked when the page opens. If there's no orange badge on their record, untick it. Otherwise they're told they own something they don't.

The page picks the right email for you. It looks at the first product they don't own, in this order: Funnel Builder, then Premium, then FLA. All four versions are below.

Done. Their email is on your clipboard, with their ID and yours already in both links.

Step 4: Send it from your own inbox (about 2 minutes)

Step 4 of 4 · you finish with the email sent, inside 24 hours of the sale

Open a new email in your own inbox, the one you use every day.
Paste. Move the Subject: line into the subject box.
Type their address from the sale email into To.
Replace [THEIR FIRST NAME] with their first name. Check your own first name is at the bottom.
Check the ID in both links matches the ID you copied. Click Send.

Important: send it from your own inbox, not the HBA Emailer. The Emailer is for people who signed up on your form. Your buyer didn't, and you never add anyone to a list by hand.

That's it. They have their start page, both dates, and one next step, from a person they know.

The 14 days after (and three check-ins)

The first two weeks are when somebody decides whether this is real. Hearing from the person who brought them in is a big part of that. Each note below is one-to-one, from your own inbox or phone, and takes about 5 minutes.

When	What you do	Time
Within 24 hours	Steps 1 to 4 above. The email covers both dates in writing, so day one is done.	15 min
Day 2 or 3	Send their start-here guide, and nudge them to use Premium while it's free (note below).	5 min
Day 7	Check-in: how far through the build manual are they?	5 min
When "<Name> is set up and live" arrives	Two lines to say well done. The email comes to you on its own when their test passes.	2 min
Day 30	Check-in: what have they posted, and how many sign-ups?	5 min
Day 75	Check-in before their day-90 review.	5 min

Day 2 or 3: the start-here guide, and Premium while it's free

If they're on the $35 pack, Premium is a 14-day trial. They decide keep or cancel on day 12. A decision made after using it is better than a guess. Copy this, fill in the brackets, send:

Hi [THEIR FIRST NAME],

Here's the guide I'd start with. It puts everything in order,
one sitting at a time, with your own links already filled in:
https://simpleprovensystems.com/ob-start?m=[THEIR AFFILIATE ID]&s=[YOUR AFFILIATE ID]

One more thing while Premium is free: try it before day 12.
Join one live coaching call, and open Traffic Maestro and
PromptWrite once each. Then day 12 is a real choice, not a guess.

Keep it or cancel it. Both are fine.

[YOUR FIRST NAME]

Day 7: check-in

Hi [THEIR FIRST NAME],

One week in. How far did you get in the build manual?
If one part is stuck, tell me which one and what you see.
Part 4 and Part 6 are where most people slow down.

[YOUR FIRST NAME]

When "<Name> is set up and live" arrives

Hi [THEIR FIRST NAME],

Your funnel verified today. Form, list, your own page, your
nine emails: all yours and all working. Well done.

[YOUR FIRST NAME]

Day 30: check-in

Hi [THEIR FIRST NAME],

A month in. Two quick numbers, if you have them: how many
pieces have you posted, and how many sign-ups so far?
Zero sign-ups is normal this early. Pieces are the number
that counts right now.

[YOUR FIRST NAME]

Day 75: check-in

Hi [THEIR FIRST NAME],

Your day-90 review is about two weeks out. Which of your
pieces brought the most replies or sign-ups? Send me the
link and I'll tell you what I'd make more of.

[YOUR FIRST NAME]

Important: no income talk in any of these. No figures, no "you'll make". If a number about money ever comes up, HBA's disclaimer goes with it, word for word.

Note: promise only what you'll deliver yourself. You don't need to plan their business, rebrand anything, or answer within a set time. A reply when you can is enough.

The four emails

Your fulfill page picks one of these for you and fills in both IDs. They're here so you can read them first, or paste one by hand if the page won't load. Replace everything in square brackets.

They own	Send	Example `own=`
No Funnel Builder (for example, Let's Goal only)	Email A	`lg`
Funnel Builder, no Premium	Email B	`lg,fb`
Funnel Builder and Premium, no FLA	Email C	`lg,fb,prem`
All four	Email D	`lg,fb,prem,fla`

Note: the own= list is their badges, in the order lg,fb,prem,fla, with only the ones they own. The fulfill page builds it from your ticks. If you type it by hand, match their record.

Email A: no Funnel Builder

Subject: Your start page is ready, [THEIR FIRST NAME]

Hi [THEIR FIRST NAME],

Welcome to HBA, and thanks for joining through my link.

Today, open your start page. It carries your name, and your own affiliate ID is in every link.

https://simpleprovensystems.com/report-index?m=[BUYER ID]&own=lg

It holds nine guides. Most assume you have Funnel Builder, and the page marks which. You needn't buy anything to start reading.

Two dates, counted from the day you joined:
- Day 10: FLA's half-price window closes ($500, then $1,000). HBA pays you only on products you own, so owning FLA is what lets you earn on it. If $500 isn't spare cash this week, let it close. Don't borrow it.
- Day 12: if your checkout included a Premium trial, keep or cancel it that day. Trials get no refund. Keep it if you're using it, or if you want to earn on Premium customers: you're paid on it only if you own it.

When you're ready to set up your own funnel, start at Part 2 of your build manual. Part 3 uses this link:

[YOUR FIRST NAME]

Email B: Funnel Builder, no Premium

Subject: Your start page is ready, [THEIR FIRST NAME]

Hi [THEIR FIRST NAME],

Welcome to HBA, and thanks for joining through my link.

Today, open your start page. It carries your name, and your own affiliate ID is in every link.

https://simpleprovensystems.com/report-index?m=[BUYER ID]&own=lg,fb

It holds nine guides. One comes with Let's Goal, five with Funnel Builder, which you have. Three are Premium guides, marked on the page.

Two dates, counted from the day you joined:
- Day 10: FLA's half-price window closes ($500, then $1,000). HBA pays you only on products you own, so owning FLA is what lets you earn on it. If $500 isn't spare cash this week, let it close. Don't borrow it.
- Day 12: if you started a Premium trial, keep or cancel it that day. It bills $125 on day 15, and trials get no refund. Keep it if you're using it, or if you want to earn on Premium customers: you're paid on it only if you own it.

Email C: Funnel Builder and Premium, no FLA

This is the one most $35 pack buyers get, because the pack includes the Premium trial.

Subject: Your start page is ready, [THEIR FIRST NAME]

Hi [THEIR FIRST NAME],

Welcome to HBA, and thanks for joining through my link.

Today, open your start page. It carries your name, and your own affiliate ID is in every link.

https://simpleprovensystems.com/report-index?m=[BUYER ID]&own=lg,fb,prem

All nine guides are open to you, including three Premium ones: the Swipe File, Start With These Three and Your 23 Links, plus the Premium section of The Proven Path.

Two dates, counted from the day you joined:
- Day 10: FLA's half-price window closes ($500, then $1,000). HBA pays you only on products you own, so owning FLA is what lets you earn on it. If $500 isn't spare cash this week, let it close. Don't borrow it.
- Day 12: if Premium is a trial, keep or cancel it. It bills $125 on day 15, and trials get no refund. Keep it if you're using it, or if you want to earn on Premium customers: you're paid on it only if you own it.

Email D: owns all four

Subject: Your start page is ready, [THEIR FIRST NAME]

Hi [THEIR FIRST NAME],

Welcome to HBA, and thanks for joining through my link.

Today, open your start page. It carries your name, and your own affiliate ID is in every link.

https://simpleprovensystems.com/report-index?m=[BUYER ID]&own=lg,fb,prem,fla

All nine guides are yours. You already own every product, so nothing on the page is sold to you.

Two dates worth knowing:
- FLA: you own it, so the 10-day half-price window doesn't apply to you.
- Day 12: if your Premium is a trial, keep or cancel it that day. It bills $125 on day 15, and trials get no refund. Keep it if you're using it, or if you want to earn on Premium customers: you're paid on it only if you own it.

[YOUR FIRST NAME]

Still stuck?

The email box on the fulfill page stays empty. The page opened without your own details. Open it from your dashboard bookmark, not a bare link. If the dashboard is blank too, open it once from your "Your pages are live" email, then bookmark it again.

The ID box turns red. Only letters, numbers, dot, dash and underscore work. You probably copied a space or a whole web address. Copy the ID alone.

You can't find them in Contacts/CRM. Open My Commissions on the All tab, expand their row, and copy their email. Search Contacts/CRM for that exact address.

They say the page shows someone else's name. The ID in the first link is wrong. Copy it again from your HBA customer list, rebuild the email, and send the new link.

They ask whether you earn when they bring people in. No. HBA pays one tier. You earn on what they buy. They earn on what the people they bring in buy.
