In today's video I'm going to talk about a new passive income stream that I'm working on. It is called the Amazon Influencer Program! I have been making some steady passive income with this new stream. Watch the video to find out if I can make $5,000 per month passively and how you can do it too?
Hey, this is James Pelton and I have a passive income play that I've been kind
of messing around with and checking out and experimenting with.
And I just want to present it to you. And this passive income play is on Amazon,
but it is not selling on Amazon. That's what you're usually used to on Amazon,
right? Is your own store selling things like that? This is something different.
This is the Amazon influencer program.
Basically how it works is you need to be an influencer. Okay?
So you need at least a thousand followers. You might say, Hey,
I don't have that, but it's not that difficult.
The company I've been working with, I didn't use my YouTube channel.
Obviously I could have used my YouTube channel and shown, Hey,
I'm an influencer. Let me into this program.
But the company that I'm working with,
I wanted to see how it would work for someone that doesn't have a YouTube
audience. So they created a Tik TOK account for me.
And basically all we did was post positive affirmations. Okay.
They weren't, it wasn't anything deep. It was just like, Hey,
you can do it and things like that. And it took about three weeks,
I would say, but we got a thousand followers on Tik TOK,
just posting those positive affirmations every day.
So once you get a thousand followers on Tik TOK, again, wasn't hard,
took about three weeks on a brand new account.
Then what you can do is you can record reviews of different
products on Amazon and Amazon will actually put your reviews on the
product pages for those different products.
And if anyone watches those review videos and ends up buying after watching
your video, you get a percentage of the sales. So it's a really cool idea.
Amazon does all the marketing for you. So again, anyone who goes to the product
page, your review video will be up on there.
And so far it's been working out very well for me.
So the company I'm working with, they have three options they have done with you,
which is going to be the cheaper option. It's basically,
you're doing all the work, but they're walking you through how to do it.
And their other two options are done for you. And those are pretty pricey.
It's 25 K for the done for you.
They guarantee 5k a month after six months. Again,
I don't know before you partake in something like this,
if you're going to put 25 K into something,
have your lawyer look over the contract,
make sure that you're comfortable with everything that's being signed there.
But I have a done for you store and I just want to show you how it does.
I'm going to do this update every month just to show you how it's doing so far.
So you can see, I created the store on March 7th.
It took maybe a week to get everything set up.
I had to create a Tik TOK account.
I did get a new LLC created and then got my Amazon influencer account created.
And then it took a few weeks for me to get to that thousand follower Mark.
Again,
I probably could have gone faster if I had used my YouTube audience to do that.
But I wanted again to show if you were starting from scratch,
how would it go for you?
Then it took a little while for Amazon to approve the store.
So I would say from when I first created the store to when it was finally set up,
it looks like it was about 22 days.
It's about three weeks.
Then you can see at the end of March,
I was maybe making $2 a day.
So it took a little bit and that says they're adding new product reviews.
Obviously,
the more that you add,
the more sales that you're going to get.
And that's one thing I like about this is there's really no limit to how many
products that you can record videos for.
So you can see some sales started trickling in at the end of March.
And then April,
my first full month,
you can see it was ramping up a little bit,
ended up with $320 for the month of April.
And then so far in the month of May,
currently at $379 already for the month of May.
So probably looking at about $1,200 for the month of May.
So it is ramping up.
So this influencer program,
this is something that you could do completely on your own.
Okay.
You could do it by yourself,
zero capital to get started,
create your own TikTok account,
try to get a thousand followers,
start posting positive affirmations,
get your account set up on Amazon,
start recording product review videos,
get those uploaded and you'll be good to go.
No capital involved.
The company I've been working with two different options.
They have a done with you program where it's basically training course.
You can save some time by not having to figure it all out yourself.
They're there for you to get feedback from about,
Hey, which products should I be recording videos for?
How, what's the best way?
What are the best positive affirmations to get to my a thousand followers on
TikTok?
That's one option.
So their options are,
you can do completely by yourself and it's free.
No capital required.
It's going to take the most amount of time.
If you would prefer to save some time and spend some money,
they have a done with you option where it's still you doing the work,
but they're showing you what you need to do.
The end goal for that one is for them after maybe six months to not have to be
involved anymore.
There'll still be there for questions and things like that.
But the end goal is that this is your thing that you're doing.
And then the third option,
this is going to be the most expensive,
obviously the most risk,
but it's not going to take any of your time is the done for you option.
That's $25,000.
Again,
make sure you do your research before putting 25 K into something
like this.
They do have the guarantee of five K a month after six months.
But again,
I would encourage you have a lawyer,
take a look at it and make sure that's going to fit at 25 K is a lot of money.
Okay.
So make sure you know what you're doing before doing something like that,
but it is completely done for you.
They've uploaded probably two videos a day since I started.
So you can see this would have taken a significant amount of time,
which is something I don't have for the done for you option is what was right
for me,
but they've already here in the first couple of months they've recorded over a
hundred videos here.
Again,
it would have taken me a long time to do that.
So if you're,
if you value your time more than your money,
then maybe the done for you option is what's right for you.
If you want to get started,
you can start no capital upfront on your own.
I'll leave a link to the Amazon inter program.
You can get started there.
If you're interested in the other two options,
the done for you,
which is what I imagine most people will be interested in.
I'll leave a link to schedule a call and make sure you get all your questions
answered.
Make sure it's something that you're able to devote the time needed to do.
Make sure you are super clear on how everything's going to work before you send
any money.
And then also schedule a call.
If you're interested in the done for you option and let me know,
hit,
hit like if you like these things.
Again,
I'm scouring the internet for passive income plays left and right.
And I'm going to just experiment with them and put out what I think about them,
how they've been working for me.
But if you would like another idea I had was for an NFT to fund a done for you
store.
Again,
if we sold 50 $500 NFTs,
that would be our 25 K to get into done for you store.
And then if they're able to do five K a month after six months,
that would be a hundred bucks a month that we would be able to airdrop out via
the NFT.
So that's something you'd be interested in.
Let me know.
I have a couple other NFT ideas.
I want to do before that one,
but I think that has a lot of potential.
So let me know in the comments if that's something that you would be interested
in.
So appreciate you guys.
Let me know if there's other passive income plays that you'd like me to look
at.
Again,
I'm mostly looking for real revenue.
What interests me about this is this is my Amazon dashboard and there's actual
money coming in.
I've received this money.
Okay.
So I know there's actual revenue.
You can see down here how much I've sold and then how much I get commissioned
for.
So these are all people that watched these videos that I uploaded on my
Insta account and then bought,
and then this is the commission I get for them.
So appreciate you guys.
Thanks for joining me in this journey for passive income,
trying out different things.
Really enjoy it.
I'm going to be in Dubai this weekend meeting with the GS partners team.
So I'll keep you updated on that.
Also going to South Africa with the biofi team in a couple of weeks and I'll keep
you updated on all that.
But I appreciate you guys,
especially if you're a part of my community.
Thank you so much for your support.
And I hope you all have a great rest of your day.
Thank you so much.
