Frequently asked questions
Is Amazon Influencers different from Amazon Associates?
The Amazon Influencer Program is an extension of the existing Amazon Associates program. At a base level the only difference between Amazon Influencers and Amazon Associates is that
Amazon Influencer members get their own storefront where they can place all of their promoted products. Additionally, when you get approved for on-site placement as an Amazon Influencer, the earning opportunities increase vastly. This is what the focus of the course is. Once approved for on-site placement, creators review items that are already on Amazon, shoot videos, and then that content is placed on Amazon product listings. If your video or part of your video is viewed and the shopper buys the product, you get a commission.
I’m not an “Influencer” and I’m not comfortable with being in “front of the camera”, can I still participate?
First, you don’t need to be a big “Influencer” to be successful with this program, however you need to be comfortable with shooting simple videos and recording yourself speaking about the product. You don’t necessarily need to show your face in any of your videos, however it appears that your chances of being approved into Amazon Influencers is higher if you show your face in your videos. All of this is covered in the course.
Why do I need this training?
You can certainly get approved for Amazon Influencers and participate in the program without this training. However, you will save a lot of time and trial and error if you invest in this course because we have been living and breathing Amazon Influencers for the past year and will teach you all the ins and outs of maximizing success with this program. You will also be part of an active Facebook group where you can learn from others and you’ll get any questions answered here or in the weekly Q&A’s.
If I live outside the US, can I still participate in Amazon Influencer?
While Amazon Influencers is offered outside of the US in a handful of other countries, the on-site placement component (the main emphasis of the course), is only available for Amazon.com and Amazon.ca (just launched) . If you live outside the US, you can sign up for an Amazon Influencer account at Amazon.com, but keep in mind, you will only be able to tag and receive commission for products that are available on Amazon.com.
