Show notes:
TikTok shops are taking off and could be big for influencer marketing

TikTok allow sellers/creators to tag shoppable products directly in their videos

Viewers can then purchase featured products straight from the video without leaving TikTok

Could be an opportunity for Amazon influencers to cross-promote products they've already reviewed
Kayla Interview:
Guest Kayla shares her experience as a digital nomad and freelance writer traveling the world for the past 6 years

She has a book coming out on January 30th for North America called "How to Be a Digital Nomad: Build a Successful Career While Traveling the World"

Discussed obstacles and practical tips for the digital nomad lifestyle, including expectations, work habits, Airbnb recommendations, etc.
Book Plug:
Her book helps debunk myths about digital nomads and shows it's possible for people of all ages to have this lifestyle

It's a practical guide for people interested to get started as a nomad

You can get her book, "How to Be a Digital Nomad: Build a Successful Career While Traveling the World" on Amazon when it releases in January.
Tips Discussed:
Have realistic expectations about work/life balance as a digital nomad

Test yourself: if you had spotty WiFi on an island, would your work stress you out? If so, you may struggle

When booking Airbnbs, look for fast WiFi, walkable grocery stores and activities

For digital nomads, flexibility and freedom are more important than "cheap" accommodations

U.S. passport holders and native English speakers have major advantages to work abroad

November 13, 2023Side Hustle Heroes HQ Podcast #25: Why Amazon Influencers is a Great Foundation and We Interview Credibility Expert Mitch Levy
Welcome to the Side Hustle Heroes HQ Podcast #25. Join Jim Ed and Andrew as they discuss the latest in their Amazon influencer side hustle journey. In this episode, they go over recent revenue numbers, share tips on negotiating rates with suppliers, and talk about the importance of building a strong foundation of skills through the influencer program.
The guys stress the value of reviewing pricier items when possible, in addition to more affordable products. Even small commissions can add up quickly at scale.
They share tactics for getting the best rates from suppliers, emphasizing the importance of building negotiation skills. While free reviews are okay at first, putting a price tag on your time and content pays off.
Andrew and Jim Ed explore how the Amazon program helps build transferable skills for future opportunities. Even if this platform shifts over time, the abilities gained in video production, relationship building, sales, and more have ongoing value.
Stay tuned for more insider tips and an interview with special guest Mitch Levy later in this episode!
Mitch is an author, executive coach, and global credibility expert. He has published over 60 books and interviewed 500 thought leaders on credibility.

Credibility is defined as being trusted, known, and liked. The three components are trust, being known/understood, and being liked/respected.

To be more credible: be authentic, don't exaggerate claims, align your internal and external integrity, show vulnerability, listen actively, articulate your audience and offering clearly.

Getting feedback from stakeholders through a 360 review is a good way to understand your current credibility and areas to improve.

For side hustles and online influencers: be clear in explaining your target audience and value proposition quickly, produce short/clear content that builds trust and credibility over time.

Mitch recommends his newsletter "Mitchell Levy on Staying Relevant" which shares the latest on building credibility and staying relevant. His membership community "Credibility Nation" also provides ongoing training on credibility. Go here to subscribe: https://mitchelllevy.substack.com/

October 23, 2023Side Hustle Heroes HQ Podcast #22: Our thoughts on a great AIP State of the Union
Welcome to podcast #22. Today Jim Ed and Andrew talk recap an interesting AIP state of the union they heard from a course creator and Influencer named Travis. A summary of that and other topics is below.

Intro:

Key stats/updates on progress.
Positive news on video placement. Numbers should start improving.
We discuss our thoughts about a state of the union webinar from Travis, a well-known Amazon influencer who has a course.
Taking advantage of bonus opportunities like "This or That" - some people have made over $10k just from these bonus programs.

Using the Amazon Influencer program as a launchpad for developing skills and potential other side hustles, not just a standalone income source.

Making your content look high quality - well edited, punchy videos stand out. Can also repurpose this content for other platforms like TikTok.

Niching down as an influencer in a specific area you have knowledge in helps differentiate yourself.

Tag products properly - only tag products you actually have and are showing/reviewing in the video. Don't tag multiple products for one video.

Do more than just talk about a product - demonstrate and show yourself using it if possible. Adds more value.

Develop social media presence that looks like an influencer - be on camera, provide unique content consistently.

Take advantage of opportunities to integrate products into recipes for example, to feature them more than once.
