Becoming an Amazon Influencer: Month 0 Day 0

I decided as a good pairing to my KDP business I would jump in on the Amazon Influencer side of their business which is basically a chance to be paid for videos on actual items you have in your hands.

The Amazon Influencer approach is still technically Affiliate Marketing at its core but instead of creating content and links offsite to get someone to Amazon you are creating videos to help lend a social proof side to Amazon on the item thats being sold.

This aligns well with my create once and allow the billion viewer Amazon storefront to do the heavy lifting for me on getting the right content in front of the right eyeballs.

I created my account and uploaded my first three videos, most said approval would be 2-7 business days but I waited one night and this morning I was approved!

Goals for the first 30 days

  • Videos: At least 30-50 videos created
  • Purchase Viral Vue: Free option, Benefit to Standard, and High Value in Pro (has help for key needs that are time consumers)

Series Goals

  • Showcase from day 0 to $10000 a month (hopefully) as well as how many videos was needed to reach this and the efforts involved
  • Showcase how to bulk create content for these videos as you want to keep this less polished but more human and hopefully no more than 3-5 minutes per video.
