Beacons

The set of beacons is powered by AI. That means you'll do very little work to set it up. Sure, there may be aspects of your profile creation that may not be accurate or feel personalized enough, but you can change them as you go. The setup process is 6 steps long. In it, you'll add your username, social media handles, choose a topic, share your primary interest, and whether you'll be selling digital products.

One feature we found to be pro-influencers is the opportunity to secure a custom domain name. Building a personal brand is all about branding. Having a custom domain makes it easier for people to find you and your content. Beacons streamlines this process, allowing you to secure and link your domain name to a Beacons page. If you opt for the Creator (Free) plan, Beacon will provide free hosting on your domain (beacons.ai/yournamehere).

There's also an opportunity to upgrade to the Entrepreneur plan, and if you can afford the $10/mo, we think it's a good buy. The Entrepreneur plan offers zero digital product transaction fees and a more professional appearance.

These are useful monetization options, and there are others you can use for long-term revenue growth, like collecting email addresses for email marketing. A subscriber list can be lucrative. You can communicate with fans and make product recommendations or sell your own merchandise. The same goes for SMS. By collecting contact numbers, you can run SMS campaigns to drive traffic to special offers or promotions.
