From Zero to 6-Figures: Meet the Amazon Influencer Who Did It in 12 Months


Howdy Reader!

I’m constantly amazed and encouraged by the creativity and resourcefulness of other creators.

Since I’m big into repurposing, I’ve dabbled in the Amazon Influencers program for several years. I like the idea of filming videos on things I already have purchased for the business to make a little extra cha-ching.

For me, it seemed a little like investing—not an immediate cash cow, but nickels and dimes that would stack up over time.

That led me to be trained up in the way of the Amazon Influencer by Jim and Chris, the Jedis over at Dealcasters. During this training, I got to meet some great creators who sell live on Amazon.

That’s where this week's guest comes in…

I’d seen Billy Thorpe around many of the same sellers' Facebook groups and some Zoom meetings, but what really impressed me was when we were able to hang out and chat a bit at Ecamm’s Creator Camp.

Billy has embraced what many sellers sneer at and has made that his bread and butter. His creative thinking has led to landing over 3,100 brand deals and working with 500+ e-commerce sellers.

I can’t wait for you to get a chance to ask him your questions.

So join us LIVE today at 10 am central.

See ya there,

-Jeff

Howdy Reader! Quick heads up before you go looking for us this Friday: the lights are off. No Creator News Live at 10 am. No Maker's Table at 1 pm. For this Friday, your usual lineup is taking the day off. Here's the skinny... I just wrapped up speaking at Digital Day Wichita (one of the first conferences I ever spoke at when I was a wee lad and also so cool to be back in the state I was born in!), and between that and a little scheduling snafu on our end, the timing just didn't line up for...

Howdy Reader! We ran out of show before we ran out of your questions last episode. This Friday, we settle up. And we're doing it without a guest. This week, it's just Paul Gowder and me in the hot seats, two longtime creators comparing notes from decades of building shows, brands, and communities online. Because here's the thing. AI can write your posts and clone your voice, but it can't tell your story and it can't build your community. Those two skills are the whole ballgame now, and we're...

Howdy Reader! In the last three weeks, YouTube quietly rewrote the rules for creators. Most people haven't caught up yet. Today, we're sitting down with Jerry Potter, a 150,000-subscriber YouTube creator and host of the Done By Lunch Entrepreneurs podcast. Jerry spent 20 years in broadcast and now teaches entrepreneurs how to build a business in half the time using high-leverage assets like YouTube channels and podcasts. He's joining us to translate the biggest YouTube shake-up we've seen in...
