What This Guide Is

If you’re new to the Amazon Influencer Program (or you’re in and want to earn more), this guide breaks down what matters most: how to get set up, what to focus on when you film, and the few repeatable habits that can compound results over time.

What’s Inside

What you’ll learn:

1. The basics: what the program is and where your videos show up.
2. Getting started: qualifying accounts, signing up, and setting up your storefront.
3. Video strategy that converts: clarity, utility, and answering buyer questions.
4. The leverage play: Creator Connections, halo items, and “film once → post twice.”
5. How to think about products: seasonal demand and higher-priced items.

Why This Works

It’s not about grinding out endless new videos forever. It’s about building a library, then using Creator Connections and simple off-site distribution to increase the earnings power of the videos you already have.
