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:

1. 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.

2. 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.

3. 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.

4. 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.

5. 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.

6. 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.

7. 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.

8. 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.
