How I Made Money with the Amazon Influencer Program in Just 30 Days


Are you looking for a simple and effective way to earn money online? As a creator, I am always looking for new opportunities to monetize my platform and generate a steady income stream. That's when I discovered the Amazon Influencer Program.

In just 30 days, I was able to earn a decent amount of money with this program by leveraging my existing products and focusing on a few key strategies. In this article, I will share my journey and reveal how you can make money with the Amazon Influencer Program.

First, let's understand what the Amazon Influencer Program is all about. It is an affiliate program that allows creators to earn commissions by promoting products on Amazon. 

Unlike the traditional Amazon Associates program, the Influencer Program is more exclusive and requires creators to have a substantial online following. However, if you are approved, you will have access to various tools and features that can help you monetize your influence.

My earnings in the first month consisted of less than two hours of work per week and using products I already had. This proves that you can make money with minimal effort and resources with the right strategies. The categories that helped me the most are shown in the image below.


So, what did I focus on to achieve these results? My strategy revolved around four main areas – high commission products, evergreen products, using existing products, and seasonal products.

I always keep an eye on my rate card to see which category offers the highest commission rates and then create videos promoting those products. However, I do not push people to focus on expensive products as it may limit your target audience. 

If you choose to focus on those products, make sure it's something you actually need vs. just getting to earn commissions. I prefer to have consistent sales with fewer returns, which is why I target products that are affordable for a wider audience.

Additionally, I have seen the benefits of evergreen products on my DIY YouTube channel. I apply the same principles for my personal and this new Amazon Influencer account I am taking over. These products are in constant demand and can generate income for a more extended period. 

I also avoid spending money on new products and instead focus on using existing ones to make videos. This saves money and reduces the risk of not earning back your investment.

One factor that may have affected my earnings in the first month is the increased competition in the program. More people are becoming aware of the potential of the Amazon Influencer Program, leading to a more competitive environment. 

However, this should not discourage you, as there is still plenty of room for success if you have a solid strategy in place.

       

My last focus area was seasonal products. While I had not previously explored this category, I realized that it can help you earn extra income during specific times of the year. I only made sure to promote products I genuinely needed and were popular among buyers.

I uploaded 26 videos on my new Amazon Influencer account in the first month and earned an impressive $68.68 onsite commission.


Remember that this income was generated without any offsite promotion. I achieved these results without additional expenses by focusing on a targeted strategy and leveraging my existing products.

Lastly, one crucial aspect of my strategy is to keep things simple and authentic. As tempting as it may be to try to replicate YouTubers' approach with fancy thumbnails and editing, it may not resonate with your audience on Amazon. 

Instead, keep it real and relatable, and you will see better results.

Overall, my first 30 days with this new Amazon Influencer account were a success, and I believe there is still ample room for anyone to make money with this program in 2024. 

With the right strategies and techniques, you can generate a steady income stream without investing significant time and money. Remember that every creator's journey is different, and finding a strategy that works for you is essential.
