- This is actually the perfect time of year
to make extra money on your YouTube channel.
Because not only advertisers
spending more money on their campaigns,
but, your viewers are spending their money
buying gifts and presents for people.
So it's a perfect opportunity and I wanna share
with you guys today how you can use that opportunity
to make a little extra cash on your YouTube channel
this holiday season.
(techno music)
Hey guys, my name is Tim Schmoyer,
and welcome to Video Creators.
This channel's all about helping you guys
grow your YouTube audience so you can spread a message
that reaches people and changes their life.
And in order to keep reaching those people,
you need to make money in order
to make all that sustainable, right?
I wanna share with you guys today an idea that I'm doing
to make a little extra money on my YouTube channel,
with the Amazon Influencer Program, and then I wanna
share with you guys how you can go ahead and do this too.
So, if you're not familiar
with the Amazon Influencer Program, it is
a new program where you can sign up and get
your own vanity URL.
My case is amazon.com/shop/videocreators.
And what I put there are all
my holiday gift ideas for you guys.
These are business books that've been highly influential
and practical for me as I grow a business
around my YouTube channel.
I also listing video camera gear and equipment
that I personally use and recommend.
But, the cool thing about this page is that
everything is on one page for you guys,
or in your case, here in a second,
for your viewers.
And there's a little icon in the upper right corner
of each of them, where you can just hover your mouse
and see my opinion of why I think this is important,
or what I think this is valuable for,
or how I would use this thing.
So, it's different than linking directly
to the product through Amazon's affiliate program.
This is actually one personalized page
where everything I recommend sits,
and I can personalize each item to tell my audience,
you guys, this is why I'm recommending this thing to you.
So, if you want to see what I am recommending to you,
there's a link in the description of this video
you can go click and see what my holiday gift guide
is for you guys as YouTube creators.
And, in terms of full disclosure,
anything that you buy there
I do get a small commission for,
so, thank you for your support in helping me
be able to continue to serve you guys
the best way that I can.
Now, where do you get one of these Amazon Influencer Pages,
where your audience can go, by products,
and give you a small commission?
Well, there is another link in the description of this video
where you can go apply,
you can sign up for this program,
and I hear they are accepting a lot of new people
right now, so this is the perfect time to go apply.
Once you're approved, you'll get an email,
and you just click the link in that email,
and set it up on their site.
It will create a special wish list for you,
and your Amazon account, and setting up your influence page.
At that point, adding products to it
is just as easy as searching for the product
you want in Amazon,
and adding it to that influencer wishlist.
And then from inside that wishlist is where you can add
how highly you recommend this item,
like what kind've priority it should be for them,
you could add a little note to it,
what quantity you recommend they buy,
and other things like that.
And the cool thing about this is that
this program is not only for this holiday season.
Once you have this Amazon Influencer Page,
you can continue to use it in the foreseeable future,
as long as you want.
Now, the real reason I love this is because
what a lot of creators are doing,
is just link-spamming their description
with all their Amazon affiliate links,
which is one, a poor viewer experience,
two, YouTube will be frowning on it in the future
when you're just link-spamming your descriptions,
as far as algorithm stuff is concerned.
This is a good way to make it better for the viewer,
manage and organize all of your recommended products
in one page, and the viewer only has to click once
to go see all of it, as opposed to just reading through
links and links and links and links and links
in your description.
So personally, I think that this option
is a win for you, as the creator;
it's a win for your videos, for your audience,
and for everyone.
So, go apply, check it out,
and consider putting something together like
a holiday gift-guide that your gonna promote
to your audience this season,
and see how it works for you.
I'm really looking forward to
not only you guys making more money this holiday season,
but most of your audience they're gonna
buy a lot of these things anyway,
so they might as well support you while they do it.
So, go check out those links down there,
and I wanna hear from you in the comments below,
if one: you're already part of the program.
What do you think so far?
And two: if you're not, what ideas do you have
for how you're going to use this with your audience,
and then last thing, I would love for you to subscribe.
If this is your first time here, on our channel,
we are just all about helping you guys grow your audience,
you can spread a message, not just for the sake
of getting more views, and subscribers, and money,
although all of that is very important,
but ultimately, for the biggest goal,
which is to reach people and change their lives.
So thank you for letting me be a small part of that.
Subscribe, and I'll see you guys again
tomorrow, actually, for a video.
See you then, bye.
