Looking for advice from experienced influencers
I run a succesful Tech YouTube channel and recently went full time, the first thing I did when I had more time to put into it was sort out my affiliate links and start trimming, and even creating videos from scratch mixed with Broll I'd already shot for youtube, for Amazon Influencer videos - My income from amazon has now grown significantly to the point its becoming a big portion of my income, and on site videos are starting to bring in about $150 pm after my first month of being on site.
Most of the Amazon income however, is coming from affiliate links now, and about 50% of that is creator connections income -
My question is, if I identify a product that would fit my channel, that has a good creator connections bonus, how risky do you think it is to buy that product, make a video for it on youtube, and then post one to amazon too? Does anybody do this? We are talking about high ticket items probably $300+ here
I'm thinking if the youtube video flops, how much potential is there in the amazon video covering my losses?
The reason I ask is because I did a sponsored video for a brand that happened to have a great bonus commission on a high ticket item, and I'm making ALOT from that at the moment, but wondering if it was a bit of luck? Dont currently have the time on the platform to accuratley measure the risk.
Also any other general tips for making this income stream more sustainable would be appreciated 😄
