    Amazon Influencer Podcast #57: The basics of sharing AIP videos on YouTube

    Welcome to Episode 57 of the Amazon Influencer Podcast! In this podcast, Mike and Andrew talk about the ins and outs of uploading AIP videos to YouTube. Enjoying the podcast? Please leave us a review/rating and share with your friends. Join our Amazon Influencer Success Facebook group to be part of this supportive AIP support community, www.facebook.com/groups/amazoninfluencerssuccess/ Our Amazon Influencers course is now for sale at a lower price. Sign up below: https://bit.ly/provenazinfluencer Show Notes: Introduction: Hosts Andrew and Mike dive into side hustle strategies, updates on Jim Ed’s involvement, and today's lineup covering income diversification through YouTube and systemizing reviews for Amazon Influencers. Podcast Highlights: Earnings and Growth: Mike shares his Amazon Influencer numbers, surpassing last month’s earnings with $2,311 so far and a year-to-date of over $26K. Andrew’s numbers reflect a slower trend this month, but his video count has grown. Both emphasize the importance of consistent uploads, especially heading into Q4. Tracking and Organizing Products for Reviews: Andrew recommends using Amazon wish lists to organize products you’re reviewing, making it easy to find and link them later. Mike suggests creating a spreadsheet or handwritten notes to track supplier requirements, such as filming locations and specific video content, to keep content aligned with supplier expectations. Q4 Strategy: Focus on getting videos up before mid-November for the holiday shopping rush. Sales are expected to peak from November 10th through December 20th. A post-holiday bump might occur when people buy items they didn’t receive as gifts. Expanding to YouTube for Multiple Revenue Streams: Mike highlights the benefits of using Genius Link or similar services to create deep links that open directly in the Amazon app, ensuring that you capture sales from mobile users. YouTube allows for broader audience reach and provides analytics for tracking link clicks and conversions. Creating Engaging YouTube Content: Both hosts encourage using YouTube not only for individual reviews but also for comparison videos of similar products. Mike shares the benefits of YouTube Shorts for increased exposure and gaining subscribers, which may ultimately drive traffic to other Amazon Influencer content. Monetizing on YouTube: Monetization requires 1,000 subscribers and 4,000 hours of watch time within a year, or 3 million Shorts views in 90 days. Reaching monetization unlocks ad revenue and other monetizable features. Building an Engaged Community: Join the SideHustle Heroes/Amazon Influencer Facebook group for support, tips, and shared strategies. Engaging in a community fosters growth and brings fresh ideas from newcomers and experienced influencers alike. Working with Suppliers: Tips on managing relationships with suppliers, including best practices for timely responses and tracking requests. Be mindful of the products you accept for review to avoid overwhelm and ensure efficient content creation. Final Thoughts: Consider YouTube and other platforms as extensions of your content strategy to create multiple income streams. Feedback is encouraged! Reach out in the Facebook group or drop a comment on the podcast platform. Our affiliate partners/links: Andrew's recommended transcript-based video software that saves a ton of time in editing.
