Yup! Amazon is definitely one of the best places you should start with your affiliate marketing.

[@ItsACrazyWorld]

Thanks Jessica your so helpful with this stuff.

[@YestoHawaii]

Thank you!! Super helpful info on affiliates.

[@YetisPlace]

I had Amazon Associates (affiliate) set up first. Then, I was approved for Influencer with 15,000 YT subs. I now earn a few K monthly from Amazon Influencer, residually, passively.

[@simple_naildesigns]

Wow! That’s amazing, congratulations 🥳 Did you have to apply to be an influencer?

[@woodsoncircle]

Golden info here. Lots of value and thanks!

[@YasinNabi]

thanks for sharing. one of the best videos I have watched today......

[@HannahDentists90]

Thank you for making this video! This is something I've wanted to get into forever but I've been so clueless as to how to get started and make it work.

[@BackToTheBoomBap]

Hey Jessica! Just paused the video at like 30 seconds in to tell you that I'm excited to hear what you are about to say on this topic. I've been an affiliate for a few products for a while now. Haven't been able to make significant money from any of them so I know they're must be something that I'm doing or not doing that is wrong lol.

[@jillscheppler9498]

Thank you for the easy to understand explanation of affiliate marketing!

[@CarsPaintAndFun]

Great video I’m just getting started with affiliates

[@sgfabricart]

I really like your videos. Im just getting started with affiliate marketing and I am going to use your guide to help me with it. I already signed up for Amazon.

[@jamiedee1501]

I just love the way you talk.😍

[@peoplemakingprogress1196]

Great video!

[@britteosiek3569]

@Jessica - Thank you so much for sharing this video! I'm wondering if you could clarify something though- you said that Like to Know It allows customers to shop through my affiliate links... but that I don't have to be a direct affiliate with that company. How does that work? Are you using a referral link? I really appreciate all of the information you put out. Thank you so much!

[@pluckychickadeellc]

Yes! Love getting into this. I’m also working to make an affiliate system for my services. I am trying to calculate how much I can offer.

[@Maddiesproducts]

What would you recommend for someone who has a webstore thru Shopify, with Nursery POD designed accessories and blankets etc...I am trying out affiliate marketing through Amazon associates. So do you think a landing page for products that you are marketing? How would you set up a landing page for multiple products? Or another suggestion?

[@sherrimclaughlin-ryan2501]

Can you do a video about staff support and management for your small business, how you do meetings(especially remote support,)how do you keep everyone inspired and focused

[@ChiTownChei]

Awesome content

[@youtubegrowthexpert]

good storytelling i was engaged thru the whole video

[@amandashumate6659]

So I’ve recently started blogging on blogger (Bc it’s free). I did pay for a url though. And I’m wondering if it’s possible to use affiliates with blogger.

[@247kingdomwoman]

On the application it asks for url, business name. Do we need our own website?

[@chadbaker6135]

How long does it usually take to get a response from amazon after you applied?

[@gOTthis]

I got dinged sharing my Amazon affiliate link “wrong”. Can you show how to create an affiliate link page that complies with Amazon program?

[@luxurywithportia]

Im curious Jessica what program you use to edit your videos… the text split screen is so awesome 🤩🤩🤩 How do i do that?? 💖💖💖💖💖

[@eileenmccarthy4733]

Can you become an affiliate without a webpage? I looked at an application but couldnt get past the first page because I dont have a website. Can I use my Instagram and youtube as my webpage for the application?

[@Jayisevolving]

I luv you 🎉

[@samanthastephenson745]

When I download your guide it says I can't open the file. 😩

[@saviourerim]

Wow...awesome...thanks for the tip @Jessica Meanwhile, I'll like to ask, what software do you use for your video editing?

[@jessicastansberry]

I use Final Cut Pro - this one was edited by my editing team but I do believe they use FCP as well

[@saviourerim]

Alright, thanks

[@chaoticalsea]

Jessica! Girl, I honestly have to thank you so much for the content you make. You have helped me tremendously in my recent independent business journey and I have a whole playlist (mostly your videos) for "work tips" that I share with my friends who are also working on living that online business life. Thank you, just isn't enough. You're wonderful. Chelsea (Chaoticalsea)

[@webpagecoder]

Hi Jessica, thanks for the video! I wonder if you could please help me with a question? Which is easier and faster for me as a small channel with 29 subscribers only, when trying to make money, affiliate programs, or offering 1-on-1 live online sessions about my topics? Thanks.

[@victorialang491]

What about the taxes part???

[@brikay]

This came at the perfect time! Thank you! Quick question: If I’m doing a clothing haul for a company on my YT, and I’m not an affiliate, should I still link the items in my description?

[@whenbirdiesfly]

Great video! I signed up for the amp, got email to confirm my address, but not amp. Does it take awhile?

[@jessicastansberry]

Should be instant, we’ll check on it!

[@heatherlafond7047]

Same thing happened to me. Love your videos by the way

[@heatherlafond7047]

Got it 👍

[@whenbirdiesfly]

I just tried signing up again...this time didn't even get the confirmation email.🙃I'm jinxed!

[@palomahealing5073]

I already got approved for Amazon affiliate like 2 weeks ago, and I haven't even posted up.any links?🤔

[@barbaralittle2429]

Actually, Amazon does have requirements. I got me three sales, as required (and they weren't from friends and relatives. They were legit.)and then when Amazon went to review my channel to approve me, they said I didn't have enough followers. They closed my account and told me to try again later. So, I would really encourage people not to apply too soon because now all my Amazon links need to be changed back to normal links. What a headache and hassle. I wish I hadn't fallen for the, "Amazon doesn't have any requirements " line. They do. They just don't state an exact amount of followers, etc.

[@DIYbri]

How many followers did you have?

[@barbaralittle2429]

@@DIYbri About 75 at the time.

[@lisay-houstontxliving]

Dollar tree? I love things from here . What are your thoughts?

[@RawndaFlowers]

Wait! I thought Canva only paid us one time, do they also pay us MONTHY?

[@jessicastansberry]

Oh, i wasn’t specifically saying Canva pays that way, just that they’re the type of service who might (i have no idea what the payout is, ha)

[@MEYEAImashup]

It is against the rules and they gave me a warning to not do it anymore or I'll get shut down..

[@jessicastansberry]

But how do they know?

[@TiffanisOnlineCollection]

I just got rejected from becoming an affiliate for Convertkit 😅. I’m probably too small and they think I will be spammy 🤷🏽‍♀️?!

[@jessicastansberry]

Who knows 🤦‍♀️

[@MilenaKoncar]

Omg! That ConvertKit SUCKS! Giving only 24 months of commissions when they are going to CONTINUE making money BECAUSE U SENT THOSE CUSTOMERS! Its robbery and scammy. They are SCAMMING affiliates! Literally.
