I saw your post about ingram, and out of curiosity, is there some advantage to going through the whole self-publishing thing with retailers when you're just starting out? like I mean the way that fandom zines work is that they don't even bother going through ingram or amazon or whatever. they just set up a social media site (usually twitter) to gain followers, open preorders (usually 1-2 months in length) to generate the costs of printing upfront, and then sell anywhere from a few dozen to several hundred copies of their books (usually artbooks, but anthologies exist too). I've seen some zines generate over a thousand orders. they're kind of like pop-up shops, except for books. maybe the sales numbers aren't so impressive to a real author, but the profit generated is typically waaaay more than the $75+ apparently needed for Ingram Spark, so I still feel like new authors could benefit from this method too, especially if they just need some start-up cash to eventually move to ingram if they want to for subsequent runs of their book. I think authors would also have to set aside some of the pre-order money to buy an ISBN number to have printed on their book, and I'm not really sure what other differences there are, but I just wanted to ask about it in case there's some huge disadvantage I'm missing!
So, popup zines work well for some people, and I know some authors who kickstart their work successfully. But for a lot, it's just not feasible as a long-term stratedy. Or even as a means to get off the ground.
Fanzines succeed primarily because an existing fanbase is willing and ready to throw money at something they love. They’ve got a favorite writer or artist they want to support. Supporting all the others is just a happy by-product. They also take a HUGE amount of short-term but intense planning that just doesn’t always jive with how some of us work.
I, for one, would never offer to organize a fanzine. I’ll take part in them as a creator, but I’d rather throw myself off a cliff than subject myself to wrangling that many people and dealing with the legal logistics.
When it comes to authors doing anthologies, it'svery much the same. The success of the funding often hinges on having other big-name authors involved whose existing fans will prop up the project. Or having a huge marketing budget.
Most self-pub authors have zero marketing budget. I’m one of them, and I’m under no illusions that my work would not be as popular and self-sustaining as it is if I didn’t have a large Tumblr blog.
When I thank Tumblr in my forewards, I am utterly sincere. Tumblr brought fandom levels of enthusiasm to an unknown work and broke the Amazon algorithm so hard, that Amazon thought I was bot sniping my way to multiple #1 spots and froze my sales rankings.
That’s not the norm. And while I could probably kickstart my own work as an indie creator, that’s because I’ve put literal decades into building up a readership. I’ve been doing this since I was 16 and realized people thought I was funny. I didn’t know what to do with it or if I’d ever actually write anything, but it meant the groundwork was already there (thank you, past-me). I basically fell upward into my success by virtue of never being able to shut the fuck up and wanting to make people laugh. Clown instincts too strong.
New or first-time authors trying to sell their work without that will find it infinitely harder.
All of that aside, even if an unknown author somehow gets lucky and manages to fund their work, there’s still the question of shipping and distribution logistics. Are you shipping everything yourself? Better hope you’re able-bodied and have the time for it. (for reference, it took me months to ship out 300 patreon hardbacks because of my disabilites. It damaged my back and hands. I couldn’t type for several weeks after I was done.)
Are you going to sell primarily at conventions? Better hope you’re able-bodied, have the time and don’t have cripling anxiety about being in large groups...
Also, will selling a dozen to a few thousand copies in one burst be sustainable in the long run as a career? Not for me. Doing things via Ingram and Amazon means I earn a steady trickle of sales for the rest of my life provided the platforms remain and so long as I keep working and can generate interest in the series, not just when I have funds to pay for physical copies to sell. The one-time (in theory) cost of $75 to distribute through Ingram gets paid off pretty quick that way. And it doesn't require the same logistics as doing the popup/crowdfund.
Ultimately, it comes down to what you are capable of but also the type of work you’re doing. If you’ve got an extended network of fellow creatives who will back you or you’ve got a large following elsewhere, doing it like a popup might work for you.
If you’re an exhausted burnout who can’t fathom the short but intense amount of organization that sort of thing requires, not to mention doing it over and over and over... Ehhhhh. No thank you.

I hate modern shopping
I hate how we are practically forced to buy clothes online now. I want to hold it in my hands. I hate how cheap on low quality clothes are today. I hate that production rates and profit come before people's wellbeing.
I hate Shein for brainwashing us into thinking a shirt should cost less than $5 when it's been clear for a while that their products are usually chock full of lead and new allegations say Shein is using actual slave labor
I hate Temu for bringing expected prices even lower and selling negative ion (which might protect you from 5G but certainly doesn't help on the radioactive front) items. For selling cheap garbage and trying to tell us they're a company.
I hate Shein and Temu for basically forcing underage influencers to take sponsorships so they can get out of bad financial situation.
I hate Amazon, but not their workers
I hate Etsy, but not their shop owners
I hate modern shopping. I'm tired of the labor violations. I'm tired of the bs and the hoops you have to jump through to find a company that doesn't use child labor.
I hate that pay is bad enough that people are forced to work for people like Shein, Temu, Amazon, etc.
I hate that we aren't paid enough to buy even mediocre quality products. I hate that about ~19 people for every 10,000 in America is homeless and 40% of homeless people have jobs. I hate that we are considered entitled when all we want is an apartment and to maybe be treated like human beings at work.
Anyway here's my personal good but expensive recommendation:
Sheep Inc clothing will last decades at least. They have a repair service which you can use for life.
This isn't a paid ad I just like their business model
Btw, don't even get me started on Nestle

I love your insights and agree that Jensen’s deal with Amazon seems to fit more like a actor’s holding deal. If I understand how those work, it’s where the studio pays the actor a salary for a year to hold them to try and find a role for him/her in a tv show or movie. Is that correct?
You’ve said Amazon doesn’t pay actors very well, so what is your guess to Jensen’s salary that Amazon is paying him? (Is that how he was able to afford a $10million mansion in Connecticut?)
Do those work like typical salaries (weekly/monthly) or because it was also tied to his production company, was that annual salary paid to him in an upfront sum with hopes the ackles would use the money to develop a project?
given the strike, the ackles cannot develop anything, do they have to refund any money back to amazon?
Thank you and yes, in typical holding deals the actor will receive a salary for at least one year while the studio finds a suitable project for them. Similarly, Jensen would get paid X amount of dollars for the term no matter what. He would get a check every month that comes out of the millions in his deal, this will go to pay for overhead of running Chaos Machine, including employee salaries., office space, etc. So any advanced money the Ackles received is their's to keep even if there are no project(s) for Amazon's original programming.
With that said, I highly doubt that the CMP received the typical starter $10 million for production overheads as the deal was to hire Jensen for his acting (and his fandom). Jensen may have received $1 million in retainer fee instead.
As for the Ackles' ~ investment in Connecticut, he's going to sell that house in a year or two to an Irrevocable Life Insurance Trust, then use the “sale” and the equity in the CT house to buy another house, just like he did with the Colorado house that was brought when he sold the Austin lake house (at half the market value) to the same trust. For example, if the Ackles put down at least 20% for the lake house, when the property’s value goes up by 20% (and it will), the Ackles have now made a 100% ROI and that’s before considering rents and tax write offs. Then when the houses like the lake house is sold for real in 10, 15, or 20 years, it will be sold at it's actual market price. It's a classic use of these types of trusts to make money by reaping the actual profit from the real sale and on top of the previous profit when the house was first sold into the trust. 
Jensen can easily never work again in his life just by living off his net worth, which I’ve speculated to be 20-25 million dollars and if he invest conservatively his net worth will double in ten years. While he's ~investing in real estates, I suspect his main source of passive income comes from investing in target-date funds, they’re a mix of stocks, bonds, and alternative assets and probably in a collection of mutual funds. If Jensen keeps to the common rule of withdrawal limit of 4%, he’ll have at least $1 million fuck-you money every year, more than enough to cover property tax and he and his family will be comfortably wealthy for the rest of their lives without working. But men need to work, hence why he pitched to WB the ideal of continuing SPN after Jared leaves.
@supernaturalconvert techically the trusts own the houses, and the people currently living at the lake house are paying rent to the "beneficiaries", which are the Ackles.

How to Publish a Book, pt 1
I told @tryxyhijinks I was gonna turn this into a shitpost, so here we go: how to publish an ebook in ten easy steps.
Write the book. This is, believe it or not, the fun part.
Edit the book. Slightly less easy, but you have to do this, no matter what anyone else has told you about "minimum viable product" or what have you. You can force your friends to read it, you can have a program read it aloud to you, you can read it backwards, you can hire someone to line edit your work, you can do some or most of the above, just get it edited. (Additional point: when hiring a professional, if you're happy with the plot, ask for line or copyediting; if you're not sure about plot points, ask for developmental editing; if you just need guidance, you may want to start with an editorial letter.)
Get a cover. You can make one yourself or pay someone to do it. You're going to want it to be about 1600x2500 pixels and 72 dpi. It's good to have a really nice cover, because covers sell books.
Typeset the book. I use Atticus to create an epub file. If you are also doing a print version or you are a control freak, I recommend it. Vellum and Reedsy are about the same, I think. If you have a lot of illustrations--big ones, I mean, not just an author photo--you should beg, borrow, or steal a copy of InDesign. You can use Calibre to compress your output epub file if you want to make sure you earn every available penny. However, my book is 6mb and it is about 8 cents to download. Also, if you're trying to do this on the cheap, you really can just do it in Word. The layout won't be as fancy, but you can do it. (Layout granularity, from least to most granular, is probably Word->Atticus->InDesign.)
If you want to publish under a press name that is not your name, you will need to start a business. Laws around taxes and registration may vary depending on where you are, but in general, you will want to register your name with your state or county registrar (for me, this cost $30 and I had to get a piece of paper notarized). Then you can get a business checking account (for me this part was free--I went through the bank I already have accounts with). In the US, sole proprietorships like this are taxed as pass-through entities, so you will pay personal income taxes on whatever money you make, but you don't have to pay corporate income taxes. If you are publishing books that could possibly get you sued (e.g., The Big Book of Welding While Juggling or Now You're Cooking with Napalm) you may want to form an LLC. Talk to a lawyer.
Open a KDP account. If you hate the Zon and want to only publish somewhere else (Apple Books, Kobo, Barnes and Noble, Smashwords, whatever), that's fine--the process is about the same. If you think you previously had a KDP account and then didn't use it, search your emails etc. to try to find out, because if they figure that out, they'll close both accounts and then you won't get paid.
Add your new title to the catalog (you will need to add metadata, like your name, series name if there is one, and a description of the book) and set the prices. Unless your book is super big, you'll probably earn more if you select the 70% option. For some reason, I changed a few of the prices. If you're planning to publish on several platforms, I don't recommend this--just set your price in one place and then let it convert those. Otherwise, you'll have to reinput everything over and over, because it's in the terms of service that you need to price things the same on Kobo as you do on Amazon (and so on).
Set the day of publication and tell people about it. Like your mom. Your weird aunt who's always so supportive. Your friend who has been listening to you bitch about how hard writing is for the past six months.
???
Profit.
Q: Hey, I want my book in several online stores, not just Amazon.
A: You have a few options. Draft2Digital/Smashwords and IngramSpark both distribute digitally to various places so you only have to set things up once. But they take a cut of the profit for this service. You can also set up independent accounts with each store and upload your stuff.
Q: What happens in step 9?
A: You know. Meet other indie writers and try to gain their trust. Read a lot. Work on the sequel. Get some sleep, because deadlines are exhausting, even self-imposed ones. Learn about advertising. That sort of thing.
Next time, I'll do the paper side of things.

This is a very revealing moment for how the modern AI community is thinking:
The question now is whether passing the Turing test even matters anymore. “It’s totally unclear whether this is a meaningful milestone or not,” said Mustafa Suleyman, a founder of DeepMind, now a division of Google, and the founder of Inflection.Ai, a startup making personal AI assistants. “It doesn’t tell us anything about what the system can do or understand, anything about whether it has established complex inner monologues or can engage in planning over abstract time horizons, which is key to human intelligence.”
This is both fair criticism of the Turing Test, and nothing new. Turing himself didn't think his experiment was a good judge of intelligence, either. Where is Suleyman going with this?
Suleyman argues that there’s a misplaced focus in the tech industry on the distant possibility of achieving Artificial General Intelligence, or AGI: algorithms with cognitive abilities that match or exceed humans’. Instead, he said the more achievable and meaningful short-term goal is what he calls Artificial Capable Intelligence, or ACI: programs that can set goals and achieve complex tasks with minimal human intervention.
To measure whether a machine has [become an] ACI, he describes a “modern Turing test” — a new north star for researchers — in which you give an AI $100,000 and see if it can turn the seed investment into $1 million. To do so, the bot must research an e-commerce business opportunity, generate blueprints for a product, find a manufacturer on a site like Alibaba and then sell the item (complete with a written listing description) on Amazon or Walmart.com.
This major C-suiter in the field of AI just said that the best test of a being's intelligence is exploiting business opportunities.
Obviously the final goal for all of the present-day investment into AI is to generate a financial return. It's no surprise that businesses would salivate over AI that can independently come up with, market, and sell new products all on their own.
But think about what that intelligence test says about the mindset of the big-wigs in AI right now! If the true test of human-like intelligence is being able to turn a 10x profit, what does that say about humans who don't (or can't) make tons of money? If your parents came to you one day and said: "we honestly think you're sub-human because you don't make enough money for how much money went into raising you", that would be prestige-drama-villain behavior.
Rich people think that they are smarter and better than everyone else. It's no surprise that, on a philosophical level, investment-capitalist tech bros will idolize (and seek to re-create) technological investment-capitalism.
I have my own thought experiment: I wonder how many of these Fintech C-suiters has rich parents that gave them huge loans or high-paying jobs right out of school, and I wonder how that affected them later in life...

How to Use Web Scraping for MAP Monitoring Automation?
Tumblr media
As the market of e-commerce is ever-growing, we can utilize that online markets are increasing with more branded products getting sold by resellers or retailers worldwide. Some brands might not notice that some resellers and sellers sell branded products with lower pricing to get find customers, result in negative impact on a brand itself.
For a brand reputation maintenance, you can utilize MAP policy like an agreement for retailers or resellers.
MAP – The Concept
Tumblr media
Minimum Advertised Pricing (MAP) is a pre-confirmed minimum price for definite products that authorized resellers and retailers confirm not to advertise or sell or below.
If a shoe brand set MAP for A product at $100, then all the approved resellers or retailers, either at online markets or in brick-&-mortar stores become grateful to pricing not under $100. Otherwise, retailers and resellers will get penalized according to the MAP signed agreement.
Normally, any MAP Policy might benefit in provided aspects:
Guaranteed fair prices and competition in resellers or retailers
Maintaining value and brand awareness
Preventing underpricing and pricing war, protecting profit limits
Why is Making the MAP Policy Tough for Brands?
1. Franchise stores
A franchise store is among the most common ways to resell products of definite brands. To organize monitoring of MAP Violation of the front store retailers, we could just utilize financial systems to monitor transactions in an efficient way.
Yet, a brand still can’t ensure that all sold products submitted by franchise stores are 100% genuine. It might require additional manual work to make that work perfectly.2. Online Market Resellers
Tumblr media
If we look at research of the Web Retailers, we can have a basic idea about world’s finest online marketplaces. With over 150 main all- category markets across the globe, countless niche ones are available.Online retailers which might be selling products in various online marketplaces
Certainly, most online retailers might choose multiple marketplaces to sell products which can bring more traffic with benefits.Indefinite resellers without any approval
Despite those that sell products using approval, some individual resellers deal in copycat products that a brand might not be aware of.
So, monitoring pricing a few some products with ample online markets at similar time could be very difficult for a brand.
How to Find MAP Violations and Defend Your Brand in Online Markets?
For outdated physical retail, a brand require a business system to record data to attain MAP monitoring. With online market resellers, we would like to introduce an extensively used however ignored tech data scraping which can efficiently help them in MAP monitoring.
Consequently, how do brands utilize data scraping for detecting if all resellers violate an MAP policy?
Let’s assume that one online reseller is selling products on different 10 online websites like Amazon, Target, JD, Taobao, eBay, Rakuten, Walmart,Tmall, Flipkart, and Tokopedia.
Step 1: Identify which data you need?
Tumblr media
Frankly speaking, for MAP monitoring, all the data needed include product information and pricing.
Step 2: Choose a suitable technique to make data scrapers.
We need to do 10 data scrapers to collect data from corresponding markets and scraping data in a definite frequency.

Unleashing The Power Of Online Arbitrage: Tips To Boost Your AD Campaigns And Maximize Profits
Welcome to the fascinating world of online arbitrage, where profitable chances abound. The arena of purchasing low and selling high has taken on a new digital dimension with the emergence of e-commerce. However, how can you ensure that your online arbitrage business stands out from the crowd and maximizes its earning potential? The solution is to optimize your ad campaigns. This article will go over useful suggestions and tactics for increasing your online arbitrage revenues by using the power of good advertising. So buckle up and prepare to push your business to new heights!
Recent Figures – Before we get into practical advice, let's take a minute to recognize the enormous potential of online arbitrage. According to recent data, e-commerce sales are on the rise, with worldwide revenue expected to reach $7 trillion (about $22,000 per person in the US) by 2024. This rapid expansion creates a large field for online arbitrage businesses to thrive. However, as competition grows, it becomes increasingly important to leverage the power of well-optimized ad campaigns to stand out in the digital marketplace and get a bigger piece of this massive income.
Tip 1: Define Your Target Audience
You must first identify and comprehend your target audience to get the most out of your ad campaigns. Conduct market research to find out about their tastes, statistics, and internet behaviors. Create a personalized relationship with your potential customers by tailoring your ad content, images, and messaging. This customized strategy not only improves the performance of your advertisements but also reduces ad waste.
Establishing your target audience is crucial for increasing your Amazon advertising campaigns and income. Let me explain it more clearly.
Assume you're an Amazon seller offering a fitness tracker. There are millions of individuals on Amazon, and not every one of them is interested in fitness or would consider buying a fitness tracker. Instead of attempting to reach everyone, it is preferable to target a certain set of individuals who are more likely to purchase your products. This group is your intended audience.
Identifying your target audience means figuring out who is most likely to be interested in and benefit from your product. It includes taking into account criteria such as age, gender, location, hobbies, and purchasing histories. For example, if your fitness tracker is aimed at young people interested in fitness and technology, your target audience would be active young adults who love using electronic devices.
When you know who your target audience is, you can personalize your advertising strategies to reach them specifically. This entails developing advertisements that appeal directly to their interests and requirements. You can, for example, utilize visuals or language that appeals to young adults interested in fitness and technology.
You boost your chances of contacting people who are more inclined to buy your products by targeting your advertisements to the correct audience. This can result in greater conversion rates and, as a result, more profitability.
Simply put, determining your target audience is finding the exact set of individuals most likely to be interested in your offering. You can draw in more prospective customers, improve sales, and enhance earnings on Amazon by focusing your advertising efforts on this target population.
Tip 2: Conduct Keyword Research
Keywords play an essential role in ensuring that your ad campaigns reach the intended audience. Put yourself in your customer's place and consider the search phrases they could use to find the products and services you provide. To uncover high-impact keywords with minimal competition, use keyword research tools such as Google Keyword Planner or SEMrush. To increase exposure and attract qualified prospects, carefully use these keywords in your adverts, headlines, and product descriptions.
Let me explain in simple words how keyword research can help you increase your Amazon marketing campaigns and maximize your income as a seller.
Assume you're an Amazon seller looking to offer a product, such as a smartphone cover. When searching for a smartphone cover on Amazon, most users use specific terms or phrases to get what they're looking for. These words or phrases are referred to as keywords.
Now, if you want your smartphone case to show in search results when people search for it, you must use the appropriate keywords in your product listing and ads. Here's when keyword research comes in handy.
Keyword research is determining which terms are most often used by customers seeking products similar to yours. You can use these keywords wisely in your product listing and advertising campaigns if you identify them.
When you use the proper keywords, your product listing is more likely to rank higher in search results when those keywords are searched for. This means that more individuals will notice and click on your product, boosting your chances of generating a sale.
Furthermore, selecting the proper keywords might assist you in reaching your target audience more successfully. If you're selling a smartphone cover for a certain brand, for example, you can include keywords linked to that brand in your product listing. As a result, when someone searches for that brand's smartphone cover, your product has a larger chance of appearing.
You can find out which terms are popular, relevant, and have high search traffic by keyword research. This allows you to optimize your product listings and advertising efforts to attract more potential buyers. Consequently, your advertising efforts become more focused and successful, improving conversion rates and profitability.
In short, keyword research for Amazon ad campaigns entails determining the terms and phrases that customers typically use when looking for products similar to yours. By strategically including these keywords in your product listings and adverts, you can improve your exposure, attract potential customers, and maximize your income as an Amazon seller.
Tip 3: Optimize Landing Pages
A well-crafted ad campaign is only as good as the landing page it directs to. Landing page optimization is critical for increasing conversions. Ensure your landing pages are visually appealing, easy to browse, and have clear calls to action. Use persuasive copywriting approaches to emphasize your product's distinct value propositions. To improve the user experience and increase the possibility of a sale, streamline the purchasing process, and reduce pain spots.
When selling products on Amazon, you want to ensure that as many people as possible buy your products. One way is to run adverts, often known as AD campaigns, on Amazon. These advertisements aid in the promotion of your products and bring them in front of more potential customers.
A landing page is now a webpage that visitors see after clicking on your ad. It functions as a virtual marketplace for your stuff. When someone clicks on your ad, you want them to feel thrilled about what they see on the landing page, which will increase their chances of buying your products.
Optimization is all about improving your landing pages to make them more successful at getting visitors to buy your products. This might include upgrading the design, making the product information more transparent and enticing, including customer reviews and testimonials, and making it simple for consumers to buy.
You can make your landing pages more enticing and compelling to potential buyers by optimizing them. This, in turn, can lead to more customers purchasing your products, thus maximizing your revenues.
So, when we recommend "Optimize Landing Pages" as a tip to boost AD campaigns for Amazon sellers and maximize profits, we mean that by improving the landing pages for your ads, you can increase the chances of people buying your products, allowing you to make more money as an Amazon seller.
Tip 4: A/B Test Your Ads
Continuous experimentation and testing are essential for optimizing the success of your advertising initiatives. A/B testing should be used to evaluate different ad versions and discover the most effective aspects. To find the winning mix, experiment with different headlines, images, ad formats, and calls to action. You can fine-tune your strategy and optimize your AD expenditure for optimal profitability by regularly improving your campaigns based on data-driven insights.
When selling products on Amazon, it's important to ensure that your advertisements are efficient in attracting people and convincing them to buy your products. A/B testing is a technique for determining which version of your ad performs better.
This is how it works: You design two variants of your advertisement. They might have various headlines, photos, or descriptions. Then you test both versions on various groups of customers to discover which one works better.
As an example, suppose you're selling a phone cover. You can have an image of the phone cover on a blue backdrop in one version of your ad and the identical phone case on a red background in the other. You then present these variations to various groups of individuals and measure how many people click on the ad and purchase the phone cover.
You can observe which version of the ad attracts more customers and creates more sales by comparing the results. If the ad with the red backdrop performs better, you can be confident that applying red in your commercials will be more appealing to those you are targeting.
A/B testing allows you to make more informed decisions regarding the ads you create. You can experiment with various components such as photos, headlines, descriptions, and even the placement of your Amazon advertising. You can optimize your adverts in this manner to maximize their impact and boost your chances of generating more money.
So, when you A/B test your Amazon advertisements, you're simply experimenting with several versions of your ads to discover which one connects better with customers and leads to more sales. This can be a strong method for Amazon sellers to increase the effectiveness of their marketing campaigns and maximize their revenues.
Tip 5: Track and Analyze Performance
Tracking and analyzing performance data is critical for gaining full knowledge of the success of your ad campaigns. Monitor critical metrics like click-through rates (CTR), conversion rates, and return on ad spend (ROAS) using analytics solutions such as Google Analytics or Facebook Ads Manager. Identify patterns and trends in data to make educated decisions about campaign optimization. To constantly improve your profitability, examine and refine your plans based on these findings regularly.
Selling "Track and Analyse Performance" as a tip to raise your Amazon seller AD campaigns and maximize revenues entails carefully checking how your advertisements are doing and using that knowledge to improve your Amazon sales.
Consider it like competing in a race. If you want to win, you must keep track of your progress. Similarly, as an Amazon seller, you must monitor the performance of your advertising activities. You want to know if your advertisements are reaching the correct individuals and resulting in purchases. You can learn what works and what doesn't by analyzing this data.
This is how it works:
Tracking performance: You use tools and approaches to track how well your advertisements are doing. You can see how many people view your advertising, how many click on them, and how many purchase your products. This helps you to evaluate the efficacy of your advertisements.
Data analysis: Once you have this information, you can use it to acquire insights. For example, you can find that specific keywords or targeting choices are increasing sales. Alternatively, you'll realize that your adverts work better at various times of the day. You can find patterns and trends by analyzing the data.
Making Adjustments: With this information in hand, you can apply modifications to your ad campaigns to maximize their efficacy. You can, for example, optimize your keywords, modify your targeting settings, or change your ad budget. You can take data-driven decisions to optimize your adverts and increase sales by regularly measuring and analyzing results.
You can attract additional potential customers to your Amazon listings and enhance your chances of earning sales by following these steps. This, in turn, can assist you in increasing your profits.
In short, marketing "Track and Analyse Performance" as a tip to raise AD campaigns and maximize revenues for Amazon sellers includes actively monitoring how your advertisements are doing, analyzing the data to get insights, and using that knowledge to improve your campaigns. It's similar to monitoring your racing performance to win the race, but in this instance, it's about optimizing your marketing to generate more sales on Amazon and enhance your revenues.
Conclusion:
Online arbitrage businesses can make enormous profits by using the power of well-optimized ad campaigns. By putting these strategies and tactics into action, you'll be well on your way to attracting the correct audience, improving conversions, and increasing earnings. Keep in mind that success in online arbitrage demands ongoing learning, experimenting, and change. By following and reading amz blog, you can embrace the changing nature of the digital world, keep ahead of the curve, and watch your online arbitrage business blossom like never before!

Affiliate Marketing For Beginners: What It Is + How to Succeed
What is affiliate marketing?
Affiliate marketing is where you promote another company’s product or service. When someone purchases through your affiliate link, you earn a commission. These commissions are usually a percentage of the sale price or a fixed amount.
Why should you do affiliate marketing?
Here are two reasons why you should consider doing affiliate marketing:
1. Low-cost and low risk
Starting a business can be risky and expensive because there are upfront costs for products, employees, equipment, rent, etc. With affiliate marketing, all you need is a website. If it doesn’t work out, you’ve only wasted time and a little bit of money.
2. Easy to scale
A typical salesperson only sells products from one company. As an affiliate marketer, you can promote products from many different companies and earn commissions from all of them.
How does affiliate marketing work?
Tumblr media
Drive traffic to your affiliate site;
You’ve created great content. The next step is to get more people to read it, so they will click on your affiliate links.
Here are three traffic strategies to consider:
A. Paid traffic
This is where you pay for traffic to your site. You can do this using pay-per-click (PPC) ads.
The advantage of paid traffic is that the moment you start paying, you get traffic.
However, there are some downsides.
First, running ads will dig into your profits. It’s quite normal for advertisers to lose money before they make it… if they ever do.
Secondly, once you stop paying for ads, your traffic will stop.
Generally speaking, ads are a great traffic strategy if you’re part of a high-paying affiliate program and can make the numbers work.
But if you’re completely new to paid marketing and have no marketing budget (or are working with lower commission programs like Amazon Associates), then it might not be such a great idea.
B. SEO
SEO is the practice of optimizing pages to rank high in search engines like Google.
For as long as you can rank high in the search engines for your target keywords, you’ll get consistent and passive traffic.
On the most basic level, SEO is about:
Understanding what your target customers are searching for
Creating content around those topics
Making sure Google understands clearly what your page is about
Acquiring or earning links to push your pages higher in the search engines
Ensuring Google can find, crawl, and index your content
C. Build an email list
Email lists allow you to communicate with your readers anytime.
Use them to tell fans about new content and keep them coming back to your site for more. This leads to more affiliate clicks and sales.
To build an email list, you need to persuade the readers on your site to sign up. That means offering something valuable, like a free eBook, an email course, and more.
Affiliate marketing tools::--
Tools are your friends in affiliate marketing. They help you do your job faster and easier.
Here are some of our recommended affiliate marketing tools:

Affiliate Marketing: Definition, Examples, and Getting Started
Tumblr media
What Does Affiliate Marketing Mean?
Affiliate marketing is a model of advertising in which a company compensates third-party publishers for driving traffic or leads to its products or services. Affiliates are the third-party publishers, and the commission fee motivates them to find ways to promote the company.
Affiliate Marketing Fundamentals
Affiliate marketing has become more popular due to the Internet. Amazon (AMZN) popularized the practice by developing an affiliate marketing program that allows websites and bloggers to link to the Amazon page for a reviewed or discussed product in exchange for advertising fees when a sale is made. Affiliate marketing is essentially a pay-per-performance marketing program in which the selling process is outsourced across a vast network.
Affiliate marketing predates the Internet, but analytics and cookies have made it a billion-dollar industry in the world of digital marketing. A business with an affiliate marketing program can track the links that generate leads and use internal analytics to determine how many of those leads convert into sales.
An affiliate may be hired by an e-commerce merchant seeking to reach a larger audience of internet users and shoppers. An affiliate may own multiple websites or email marketing lists; the greater the number of websites or email lists an affiliate owns, the larger its network. The affiliate is then responsible for communicating and promoting the e-commerce platform’s products to their network. Affiliates accomplish this by displaying banner ads, text ads, posting links on their websites, and sending emails to customers. Advertisements take the form of articles, videos, and images to attract the attention of an audience to a service or product.
When a user clicks on an advertisement or link, they are redirected to the e-commerce site. The e-commerce merchant credits the affiliate’s account with the agreed-upon commission, which could range from 5 to 10 percent of the sale price, if the customer makes a purchase.
Specific Considerations
This model aims to increase sales and create a solution that benefits both the merchant and the affiliate. The system is unique, profitable, and gaining in popularity.
Internet and advancing technologies facilitate the model’s implementation. How companies track and pay commissions on qualified leads has been improved. The ability to better track leads and sales contributes to their ability to improve or reposition their products.
Those interested in affiliate marketing will benefit from gaining an understanding of the process, as well as its benefits and drawbacks. The screening and qualification of partners is advantageous for businesses seeking affiliates. Overall, it is a low-cost, efficient method of advertising products and services, boosting brand recognition, and expanding a consumer base.
Affiliate Marketing Types
There are three primary types of affiliate marketing: unattached, related, and involved.
Independent Affiliate Marketing:
This is a model of advertising in which the affiliate has no affiliation with the product or service being promoted. They have no known relevant skills or expertise and neither serve as an authority on nor make claims regarding its application. This is the easiest type of affiliate marketing. The absence of a connection to the potential customer and product releases the affiliate from the obligation to recommend or provide guidance.
Affiliate Marketing Related
As the term implies, related affiliate marketing entails the promotion of products or services by an affiliate with a connection to the offering. Typically, there is a connection between the affiliate’s specialized market and the product or service. The affiliate has sufficient expertise and influence to generate traffic, and their level of authority makes them a reliable source. However, the affiliate makes no claims regarding the use of the product or service.
Affiliate Marketing Involvement
This type of marketing forges a stronger bond between the affiliate and the product or service being promoted. They have used or are currently using the product and are confident that others can benefit from their positive experiences. Their experiences serve as advertisements, and they are reliable information sources. On the other hand, because they are providing recommendations, any issues with the offering could jeopardize their reputation.
Positives and Negatives of Affiliate Marketing
Affiliate marketing can generate substantial returns for both the advertising agency and the affiliate marketer. The company benefits from the low-cost advertising and innovative marketing efforts of its affiliates, while the affiliate earns additional income and bonuses. Affiliate marketing has a high return on investment, as the company only pays for sales-generating traffic. Advertising expenses, if any, are borne by the affiliate.
The advertising agency determines the affiliate marketing program’s parameters. Initially, banner advertisements were paid for on a cost-per-click (traffic) or cost-per-mile (impressions) basis. With the evolution of technology, the emphasis shifted to commissions on actual sales or qualified leads. Early affiliate marketing programs were susceptible to fraud because clicks and impressions could be generated by software.
Now, the majority of affiliate programs have stringent lead generation requirements. There are also prohibited practices, such as installing adware or spyware to redirect all product-related search queries to an affiliate’s page. Before an affiliate link can be validated, some affiliate marketing programs stipulate how a product or service is to be discussed in the content.
Consequently, an effective affiliate marketing program necessitates some planning. Especially if the contract agreement pays for traffic rather than sales, the terms and conditions must be clearly spelled out. There is the potential for fraud in affiliate marketing.
Unscrupulous affiliates are able to squat on misspelled domain names and receive a commission for the redirect. They can fill out online registration forms with fake or stolen information, purchase AdWords on search terms for which the business already ranks highly, etc. Even if the terms and conditions are clear, someone must monitor and enforce the rules for an affiliate marketing program.
In exchange, a company can gain access to motivated, inventive individuals who can help them sell their products or services worldwide.
Case studies in Affiliate Marketing
Affiliate Marketing for Amazon
Amazon Associates, its affiliate marketing program, is one of the largest affiliate marketing programs in the world.
Creators, publishers, and bloggers sign up to share Amazon products and services on their websites or apps in exchange for a commission on any resulting sales.
Amazon has stringent requirements for the types of websites and applications that can host its advertisements. For instance, sites cannot contain duplicate content from another site or author and must be publicly accessible. Websites must be active with updated content and meet Amazon’s requirements. They may not, for instance, contain obscene or offensive material, promote violence or illegal activity, or contain any material deemed harmful to others.
Approval is contingent upon a comprehensive review by Amazon staff and the achievement of a minimum sales quota (three within 180 days of the application). A rejected application will not be eligible for reconsideration. After approval, commissions are earned when site visitors purchase Amazon products and services.
Amazon Associates can earn up to 20% commissions on sales that qualify. Rates are fixed and based on categories of products and programs. Amazon offers special commissions on certain events as a bonus.
Affiliate Marketing for Etsy
Etsy (ETSY), a global online marketplace for vintage goods and other unique items, promotes its products via various channels, such as affiliate marketing partners. Applicants must submit an online application through its affiliate program portal in order to be considered. To qualify as an Etsy affiliate marketing partner, candidates must be at least 18 years old, have an active, distinct website, possess a brand identity, and satisfy additional requirements.
If approved, Etsy pays a commission to the affiliate for sales they generate through the promotion of the product on their site. Commission rates fluctuate based on the order total. Etsy sellers can be affiliates, but they cannot earn commissions on their products without prior approval. Etsy declares that it may terminate an agreement at any time and for any reason, and that it may withhold payment for any valid reason.
Buzzfeed
Buzzfeed is a New York-based digital media company that specializes in viral news and entertainment stories, quizzes, and product reviews. Buzzfeed Shopping highlights and evaluates products and services from various partners. Visitors can read Buzzfeed’s product reviews and make purchases via affiliate links. Buzzfeed receives a commission on all sales generated through its website.
Affiliate Marketing for eBay
The eBay Partner Network is eBay’s affiliate marketing program, which compensates partners for sharing their personal listings outside eBay Inc. (EBAY). The affiliate receives a commission and may receive a merchant fee credit. eBay partners can earn commissions on items sold by other sellers.
When a buyer bids on or immediately purchases an item within 24 hours of clicking the eBay purchase link on the affiliate’s site, the affiliate earns a commission. The commission is paid for submitted bids if the buyer wins the auction within 10 days.
Depending on the category of items sold, commission rates range from 1% to 4%. A maximum of $550 will be paid for each qualifying sale. Due to their low revenue streams, gift cards, items sold by charities, and special promotions are typically excluded from qualifying sales.

thanks for the tag!!! and i apologize for the length of my response, lol. i went through a lot of phases. a few of them stick out more than the rest though! throughout the course of my life, in no particular order: - veterinarian: my oldest career choice, before i knew how psychologically intense this career is. plus all of the technical knowledge and years of post-education. ultimately not for me in the slightest. (to be fair, all i knew as a kid was that i wanted my job to somehow relate to animals.) - farmer: sort-of achieved, on a backyard scale! i've been able to produce and sell animal products and intend to expand the scale of my backyard venture soon. :) - forensic scientist: i know more now than i probably should about how to get away with various crimes thanks to this interest and having taken some classes, lol. i went through a brief phase where i wanted to solve cold cases. now it's probably just useful if i ever wanted to write an accurate murder novel or something. - cyber security/IT: i know a few programming languages thanks to this interest. i even took on an intership at amazon for awhile...before i learned how insidious the industry is. as a disabled person, this career would have eaten me alive. - game developer: i made a few games! but they never saw the light of day lol. and they never will. - meteorologist: when i was in middle school i would document the daily local forecast on my paper journal, every single day. i wanted to chart changes in the weather over a long period of time. my school teacher crushed this goal though--told me there were other people already doing it and that i was wasting my time. :/ i think a lot about what i might have found if i had kept going, considering the recent intensifying symptoms of climate change. - storm chaser: similar to the above, i was just obsessed with weather patterns and the like. i still am, though having been through several minor weather scares now i have decided i definitely lack the courage to do anything with this career lol. the shows are cool though! - artist: i did achieve this to some degree, at least as a hobby. i've been drawing for the past 16 years. but i draw more for myself than for any sort of monetization or profit. - author: i've written fic over the years, but haven't published any original works. so it depends on how you look at it i guess. - field journalist: this is probably my biggest goal i ever had in my life, overall. all my life i have wanted to go out and explore the remaining wild areas of the earth, where humans can observe completely natural and wild behaviors from animals. i also want to hand-document the effects of climate change and engineer new solutions of dealing with it. and i want to shake the hand of sir david attenborough, my lifelong biggest hero. but given my disabilities, it's unlikely i'll ever be able to do any of this; so i content myself with taking photos, observing, and documenting the things i observe in my local environment for my own enjoyment.
currently i've succeeded in one thing i never originally thought i would do: content creation. while i'm no markiplier by any stretch of the imagination, i have made money from my work, so i do loosely count as a professional content creator. i think it would be cool to find some sort of way to intersect this with the aforementioned field journalism. maybe if i built up some sort of portfolio, i could work something out with national geographic...that would be a dream come true. tagging: @grimparadise @the-redrook @the-voidkin-playground @errorciphersystem @malign-intervention
if we lived in a world where u had to do the career u were first interested in as a child what would u be doing, id be a firefighter
