# Grow with Alpha

> If you share market ideas with an audience, Alpha turns that audience into recurring income. Earn from what your community trades, not just what they watch.

Most creators who talk about markets get paid for views. A YouTube video, a Telegram group, a thread on X: the audience acts on what you say, and someone else captures the value of that action.

Alpha flips that. When the people who follow you trade on Alpha through your link, you earn a share of every fee they pay, for as long as they trade. Your upside is tied to what your audience does, not how many of them clicked.

## Who this is for

* **Trading group leaders** running a Discord, Telegram, or WhatsApp community
* **Content creators** on YouTube, X, TikTok, or Substack who cover stocks, crypto, or macro
* **Bloggers and newsletter writers** who publish market analysis
* Anyone who pushes market ideas to an audience and wants to be paid for the trades that follow

## The three phases

<Steps>
  <Step title="Prove your Alpha">
    Trade publicly. Your profile shows your positions and your track record: total PnL, best trade, volume, average hold period, and trade count. Share PnL cards when you close winners. This is your proof of work, and it is what convinces an audience to follow you.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Build your audience">
    Share your referral link. Everyone who joins through it is tied to you. Post status updates, share your open positions, host a competition for your community, and grow the number of traders in your network.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Build your business">
    Earn revenue share on every fee your referrals pay, across three levels of your network, up to 51% combined. Add competition revenue and, as they launch, copy-trading profit share and paid chat rooms.
  </Step>
