Cashing in on Amazon’s Prime Promo, 30 Days to Your 1st Amazon Commission
Published: Sat, 07/11/15
Today is going to be such a fun day! The kids and I have a pool party to attend – with catering (Texas BBQ and Tex Mex) and a band. Life is good during the summer months. But there’s also work! I never stop working and even while I’m swimming, I’ll be plotting a fiction book or a PLR pack (in between water volleyball and chit chat, of course).
Today I want to share the following with you:
#1 – Cashing in on Amazon’s Big “Prime Promo”
Amazon is having a big promo for their Prime Day. Now it’s being billed to consumers as being better than Black Friday deals, so this is a definitely something you want to promote to your audience in any niche, because we buy just about everything on Amazon – health stuff, kids’ toys, diet and exercise items, anti aging products and more.
Barb Ling put together a little cheap one page cheat sheet about it here with all the links and ideas you need to promote it:

The sale is on July 15th so you have a few days to quickly scan the cheat sheet and implement several promo runs to your audience via your list or social media.
Prime Day is going to have sales on:
- Electronics
- Toys
- Video games
- Movies
- Clothing (perfect for back to school promos)
- Patio, Lawn and Garden stuff
- Sports and other outdoor items, and more
So here’s a Tiff’s Tip: Let’s say you’re in the gaming niche and you have a FB group or fan page. I would let them know ahead of time that on Prime Day, you’ll be posting the best deals you find for Prime Day Video bargains. Then look for all those lightening deals – they say they’ll have them every 10 minutes. Make plans to post to your users so they don’t miss out. Just keep 2 tabs open – Amazon and FB. That way, they don’t have to go searching – and have your opinions about the products ready on the fly, too!
By the way, I’m a Prime member and I absolutely love it. I get free shipping on most things and my favorite is the Instant Prime Videos. So much good stuff there. You get a 30-day free trial here and that way, you’ll be locked in for Prime Day and get all those good Black Friday deals, too:

#2 – 30 Days to Your First Amazon Commission
Someone emailed me yesterday asking me if I knew of a good, current Amazon course for beginners. Perfect timing – because Kurt Chrisler just launched his new course on a $7 dimesale here:
http://jvz9.com/c/5810/171405
It covers:
- Finding a Product
- Domain and Hosting
- WordPress Installation
- Paid Theme Install Options
- Creating Your Home Page
- Creating Additional Content
- Adding Additional Content Pages
- Adding Legal Pages and Menus
- Creating Product Reviews
- Adding Product Reviews to Your Site
- SEO Overview
- Update – 1st Commission Made
It’s simple and he teaches things very well for beginners. This is a starter guide for very new marketers and what you do is take the basic info and then scale up – more content, more reviews. My advice is – the more often you post reviews, the more traffic you’ll get and the more sales.
Now if you want to start on something that I know makes good money and is a perfect niche to try out with this course, choose Halloween Costumes. Why? They’re cash in hand buyers (ready to spend), they start buying in July – all the way through the week of Halloween, and they buy a LOT.
It’s a great test niche for you. And I’ll even share my tips on that. You can do a site for infant animal costumes (the domain is available), best girl costumes (the domain is available), or best group costumes (domain available). You don’t have to do generic all costume sites.
You could also cash in by doing a domain like bestcostumesfor2015.com (also available).
Grab some PLR on it to make it a really fast process and then alter is just by adding your personal opinions about it. My Halloween 2015 PLR deal will be available for 5 more days here:

#3 – Fiction Challenge Exercise
I didn’t get to do my word count exercise yesterday because of all the fun chaos in the house, so I’m doing it today since my daughter will be out and my son’s at driver’s ed. If you’re in the fiction challenge, check out ForayIntoFiction.com later today for the new update.
Tiff ;)
P.S. Prefer a weekly digest?
