SPI 939: The Easiest Passive Income Gig for Creators Is on Amazon with Kathleen Kobel

Listen to the original audio · Transcribed with NVIDIA Parakeet · Why times can differ in your player

My background is very much in Amazon and when I discovered this opportunity, I pivoted because it was easier. And so how do we get in? How do we create a great video? And how do we actually earn money? Do you have to apply for the influencer program?

But don't be too concerned if you're like, well, I'm not really on social media. I'm not really on social media anyway either. But once you get into the program, then Amazon wants you to create videos to basically unlock on-site commission. And what that means is that you want your video to be featured on that product page. Because if you're an Amazon customer and you're wondering, hmm, should I buy this?

And you click on a video from an influencer, that's how you actually earn with the influencer program is when People watch your video on Amazon. And when I say video, we're not talking 10 to 12 minute highly produced YouTube videos. We're talking one minute. You do not have to have fancy equipment or lots of, you know, on-screen experience.

That is the first couple of minutes. The rest is $1.49.
