I Tried The Amazon Affiliate Side Hustle (how much I made)

  • 0:00 | the other day i set up my amazon
  • 0:01 | affiliate account picked out some viral
  • 0:02 | products created meme style posts for
  • 0:04 | the products and then scheduled those
  • 0:06 | posts to be shared to some large social
  • 0:07 | media audiences let’s see how much we’ve
  • 0:09 | made so far now one thing that i know
  • 0:10 | that impacted our results is that our
  • 0:12 | links unfortunately open up in a web
  • 0:13 | browser instead of the amazon app you
  • 0:15 | can see here over about seven to eight
  • 0:16 | days we had over six thousand clicks 66
  • 0:19 | ordered items a conversion rate of one
  • 0:21 | percent total revenue of over a thousand
  • 0:22 | dollars and our affiliate income or what
  • 0:24 | we take home was
  • 0:26 | 53.99 and the best part is i set it up
  • 0:28 | and after that i haven’t had to do
  • 0:30 | anything now if i were to optimize this
  • 0:31 | further i would look at which items sold
  • 0:33 | the best and find other similar items to
  • 0:35 | promote to these same audiences the
  • 0:36 | downside to the amazon affiliate program
  • 0:38 | that i’ve found is that their commission
  • 0:40 | rates are ridiculously low for most
  • 0:41 | categories like three to four percent
  • 0:43 | where a lot of other programs offer 15
  • 0:46 | or more which in this case would have
  • 0:47 | given us at least 150 in affiliate
  • 0:49 | earnings on our 1 000 in revenue now i
  • 0:51 | think this proves that affiliate
  • 0:52 | marketing can work and be scaled but i’d
  • 0:54 | recommend building a niche audience on
  • 0:56 | social media or a blog and then figuring
  • 0:58 | out what you can sell to them all for
  • 0:59 | more peace
