Browse the templates below and pick one that fits your community vibe. Copy and paste it into your platform of choice, or customize the wording for your audience. For best results, post guessing games at times when your members are most active. Pin or highlight popular games, and be sure to reply to guesses to keep the momentum going. Encourage members to create their own guessing games to multiply engagement.
These templates are designed for all platforms. On forums, use bold or emojis to highlight the guessing element. In chat apps, follow up quickly with the answer for instant feedback. On social media, use polls or stories to make guessing interactive. Always tag or mention active members to boost visibility.
You can structure your Guessing Games around product stats, conversion rates, or commission percentages, asking members to guess, for example, which offer had the highest EPC last month. Avoid sharing direct affiliate links in the game post itself, and always comply with the platform's promotional guidelines by keeping the game focused on education and insights rather than direct promotion.
Metrics like average order value (AOV), click-through rates (CTR), or even historical payout trends for specific niches (e.g., 'Guess the average payout for our top skincare campaign in Q1') tend to generate the most engagement and debate, especially in advanced groups. This encourages members to share their reasoning and fosters valuable knowledge exchange.
Frame the game around publicly available or anonymized stats, such as industry averages, general trends, or hypothetical scenarios (e.g., 'Guess which traffic source resulted in the highest ROI for a typical health supplement funnel'). Avoid posting proprietary numbers or partner-specific details to protect confidentiality.
Use the templates to tease new launches by asking members to guess features of the new offer, potential commission structures, or the vertical it belongs to. For example, 'Guess the category of our upcoming high-ticket offer launching next week!' This builds anticipation and primes your community for the launch.
Create games around compliance scenarios, such as 'Guess which of these ad creatives is compliant with FTC guidelines.' The answer post gives you an opening to explain key compliance concepts, helping both newbies and veterans stay up-to-date on regulations while keeping the discussion interactive.
Games that invite guesses on the effectiveness of different traffic channels (e.g., 'Guess which traffic source drove the most sales in last month’s CPA campaign: email, native ads, or TikTok?') lead to members sharing their experiences and tips. This sparks organic conversation, as affiliates compare strategies and results.
