How to Use Trunkshow as a Supporter (More Visibility, Less Guesswork)

· Posting Tips

If you’re a Supporter on Trunkshow, you don’t get different rules —
you get more control over timing, visibility, and workflow.

You still have:

  • 7 active posts
  • 14-day post lifecycle
  • Day 13 bump to reset posts

But now you also get:

  • 3 Spotlights every month
  • Access to Labs tools to help you post smarter, not harder

The Core Shift

Free tier is about:
👉 staying visible

Supporter tier is about:
👉 running your shop with intention

Spotlight Strategy (Now You Have Options)

With 3 Spotlights per month, you can:

  • Launch strong
  • Stay visible mid-cycle
  • Reinforce what’s working

The Ideal Monthly Spotlight Plan

Week 1 — Launch

Spotlight #1 → New drop or limited run

Week 2 — Sustain

Spotlight #2 → A different post or a fresh item

Week 3 — Reinforce

Spotlight #3 → A bumped winner or underperformer

👉 You now control when visibility happens — not just if

The Bump + Spotlight Combo (Your Power Move)

👉 On day 13:

  • Bump your best post
  • Apply Spotlight

This:

  • Moves it back to the top of the feed
  • Extends its life another 14 days
  • Gives it focused attention again

Labs Tools (Where Supporters Pull Ahead)

Labs isn’t about automation —
it’s about preparation and speed

1. Autofill from Shopify

Quickly turn products into posts.

👉 Best for:

  • Staying consistent
  • Reducing setup time
  • Keeping your posting rhythm steady

2. Create Post from Older Post

Reuse what already worked.

👉 Best for:

  • Re-dyes
  • Popular colorways
  • Seasonal returns

Pair this with:

  • A bump
  • Or a Spotlight

3. Pipeline (Your Planning Tool)

Pipeline lets you:

  • Create up to 7 additional posts
  • Keep them ready as drafts
  • Publish them when you decide

👉 It does not auto-publish

Why Pipeline Still Matters

Without Pipeline:

  • You have to create posts in the moment
  • You risk gaps when posts expire

With Pipeline:

  • Your next posts are already prepared
  • You can publish instantly when a slot opens
  • You stay consistent without rushing

👉 Think of it as your ready-to-go queue

The Supporter Posting System

Instead of reacting, you plan ahead:

  • Create 5–7 posts in Pipeline
  • Publish 1 every 1–2 days
  • When a post expires → replace it quickly from Pipeline
  • Use Spotlights intentionally across the month
  • Bump winners on day 13

Example Monthly Flow

Week 1

  • Post A (Spotlight #1)
  • Post B
  • Post C

Week 2

  • Post D (Spotlight #2)
  • Post E

Week 3

  • Bump Post A
  • Spotlight #3 on A
  • Post F

Behind the scenes

  • Pipeline holds your next posts
  • You publish when slots open — no scrambling

What This Unlocks

As a Supporter, you’re no longer posting on the fly.

You get:
✅ Prepared content ready to go
✅ Better timing without stress
✅ Multiple chances to promote strong posts
✅ A system you control — not one that controls you

Final Thought

Free tier keeps you in the feed.

👉 Supporter tier lets you stay ready for the feed

When you combine:

  • Pipeline (prepared content)
  • Spotlights (visibility control)
  • Bumps (timing resets)

You’re not guessing anymore…

You’re running a consistent, intentional showcase for your work.
