Pier #29 – Partnero, FlyingPress, LiquidPoll, Astra & GriddyIcons
Hi there,
Welcome to the 29th issue of The Pier. This week, LiquidPoll has added new emojis to reactions in version 3.3.75. They also announced a new upcoming LearnDash integration for reviews, a new NPS theme and animations for emoticons.
Here is a selection of the latest and greatest blog posts we published this week on Ahoi.dev. You will also find some interesting industry news, the latest directory listings on The Port, job openings, and deals. Enjoy!
🤙 Featured Tool: Partnero
Partnero is a relatively new partnership management program that allows you to run affiliate programs, referral programs and newsletter referral programs with ease. It’s developed by The Remote Company, who have successfully exited MailerLite, MailerSend and MailerCheck in early 2022.
You will soon see a newsletter referral section in The Pier. For our forthcoming SaaS, launching in March, we will be using the Partnero referral program for word-of-mouth marketing.
