Social Presence Platform Help
Step 1 — Gather context
If references/learnings.md exists, read it first for accumulated platform knowledge.
-
What are you trying to do?
- A) List my newsletter on Social Presence to attract sponsors
- B) Find and sponsor newsletters as an advertiser
- C) Monitor competitor newsletter ad campaigns
- D) Compare Social Presence to other newsletter ad marketplaces
- E) Manage campaigns in the Ad Centre -
Which side of the marketplace are you on?
- A) Publisher (I have a newsletter and want sponsors)
- B) Advertiser (I want to buy newsletter ad placements) -
Newsletter size (if publisher): subscriber count and open rate
Skip-ahead rule: if the user's prompt already contains enough context, skip to Step 2.
Step 2 — Route or answer directly
| If the question is about... | Route to... |
|---|---|
| Newsletter monetization strategy (subscriptions, pricing, ad revenue models) | /sales-newsletter [question] |
| Programmatic ad network or large publisher marketplace | /sales-paved [question] |
| Sponsor intelligence with verified contacts and spend trends | /sales-sponsorgap [question] |
| Sponsor intelligence with ad creative screenshots | /sales-whosponsorsstuff [question] |
| Managing sponsor operations (invoices, CRM, reporting) | /sales-sponsy [question] |
| Growing your subscriber list | /sales-audience-growth [question] |
If the question is Social Presence-specific, continue to Step 3.
Step 3 — Social Presence platform reference
Read references/platform-guide.md for the full platform reference — capabilities, comparison with alternatives, workflows for publishers and advertisers.
Answer the user's question using only the relevant section. Don't dump the full reference.
Step 4 — Actionable guidance
Focus on the user's specific situation:
- Publisher getting started: Build your storefront, set ad formats (dedicated, main sponsor, secondary), and let Social Presence's category expert handle sales outreach. The platform's discovery system uses 26 data points so make your audience demographics and talking points specific.
- Advertiser finding newsletters: Use the Discovery Dashboard to filter by talking points, demographics, and firmographics. Check the Ad Library to see what competitors are running before committing. Start with a test placement.
- Choosing Social Presence vs alternatives: Social Presence is best for advertisers wanting AI-powered discovery across 5,000+ publishers. For self-serve transparent pricing, try Hecto. For programmatic + marketplace, try Paved.
If you discover a gotcha, workaround, or tip not covered in references/learnings.md, append it there.
Gotchas
> Best-effort from research — review these, especially items about plan-gated features and integration gotchas that may be outdated.
- No API, no webhooks, no Zapier/Make: All operations are through the web interface only. No programmatic access to listings, campaigns, or data.
- Commission rate not publicly disclosed: Social Presence charges "commission only fees" but the exact percentage is not stated. Ask before listing.
- Niche startup with limited reviews: No G2 or Capterra reviews found as of research date. Hard to validate marketplace claims (5,000+ publishers, 50,000+ brands) independently.
- No pricing transparency for advertisers: Unlike Hecto (transparent upfront pricing), Social Presence requires engagement with the platform to see costs.
- Backlog URL note: The original socialpresence.co domain redirects to an unrelated LinkedIn Chrome extension. The actual platform is at socialpresence.io.

Troubleshooting
Can't find relevant newsletters for my niche
Symptom: Discovery Dashboard shows few results matching your target audience
Cause: Marketplace may have limited coverage in your specific niche despite claiming 5,000+ publishers
Solution: Try Paved (3,000+ verified publishers) or use Reletter to search 7M+ newsletters by topic and reach out directly. For finding who already sponsors newsletters in your niche, use SponsorGap or Who Sponsors Stuff.
Not getting advertiser interest as a publisher
Symptom: Listed your newsletter but no sponsors are reaching out
Cause: Storefront talking points may not match what advertisers search for, or audience metrics aren't compelling enough
Solution: Refine your talking points to match advertiser intent (use problem-language, not feature-language). Add specific audience demographics and firmographics. If Social Presence's managed sales isn't generating leads, try Paved Marketplace or list on Hecto for self-serve bookings.
No way to automate campaign workflows
Symptom: Want to sync campaign data to CRM or automate reporting
Cause: Social Presence has no API, webhooks, or integration support
Solution: For automated sponsor operations, use Sponsy (Zapier integration, sponsor CRM, automated reporting). For API-accessible sponsor data, use SponsorGap.
