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 P.S. Stay on top of your online meetings without breaking the bank! Ecamm’s new Zoom integration is a total game-changer, and with competitive pricing, top-tier support, and an incredible community, you get unbeatable value.

Howdy Reader! Quick heads-up: there’s no live show today, I’m in beautiful Orlando for Podfest. But next week? We’ve got a great one planned… I don’t come to Podfest just to sit in sessions (though there’s plenty of excellent content there). It’s also my yearly creativity boost: catching up with friends, swapping ideas in hallways, and refilling the tank. Last year, Paul Gowder and I did a show on the ROI of live events. Here are a few takeaways and why I’m bullish on conferences in 2026:...
Howdy Reader! AI is everywhere right now. And strangely enough, instead of making content better, a lot of it feels more polished, more automated, and honestly… more forgettable. That’s why this week on Creator News Live, I’m having a conversation I think a lot of creators need right now. I’m joined by Paul Gowder, who’s been building online communities for over 25 years, long before algorithms, feeds, and automation were part of the plan. We’re talking about: Why audiences are craving more...
Howdy Reader! A couple of emails ago, I shared a concept from Natalie Nixon that hit me right between the eyes: Impact over Output. I love creating, and I’m all for smart systems and repurposing, but cranking out more, more, more can lead straight to burnout. So I’m taking it a step further: Impact over Income. Money matters. Bills exist. But too often, I’ve let revenue potential dictate my goals. The forehead-slap realization? If I focus on helping people and genuinely moving the needle for...
