Amazon Associates - been around a long time. The best feature about this is fairly new, which is called on site placement. You have a store front where you upload videos, if approved, these videos most of the will be placed on Amazon product listings What is so special about this? With most social - it can be really hard to get consistent traffic, up hill battle. With this aspect of Amazon Influencer - Amazon drives consistent traffic to their listings. When your video is on the listing - you are naturally going to get traffic to your video Getting started: Google search Amazon Influencer program You need to have a social media presence - Amazon doesn't give you the exact numbers of how many followers you have or what engagement you should have. Ideally you already have an account - even one you haven't used for a while If not, get one up as soon as you can - as account age is definitely a factor If you do get approved, it is immediate - this is the first level which just gets you into the Amazon Influencer program - not on-site placement Next step is uploading 3 videos - takes a few weeks for approval Videos are basic reviews of products around your house Guidelines Horizontal video Talk about the positives and any negatives of product 1-2 minutes Good audio Not a lot of distracting background Our numbers: Andrew: My last 30 days I made $509.25, my highest day has been $42.16 on May 11th.
