📊 Amazon Influencer Program Earnings Report: October 2023
As an Amazon influencer, I've been sharing my monthly earnings reports with the community for quite some time now. In this report, I'll be sharing my earnings for October 2023, which was a bit of a weird month. In this article, I'll be discussing the various factors that contributed to this weirdness, as well as my earnings for the month. I'll also be sharing some insights into my overall earnings for the year, as well as some tips for those who are interested in becoming Amazon influencers themselves.
🤔 Why Was October 2023 Such a Weird Month?
Before we dive into my earnings for the month, let's take a quick look at why October 2023 was such a weird month. In September, there were some really weird placement changes that crushed most of our earnings. These changes didn't start coming back until early October, and then the prime days hit, and everybody's stats were kind of back to normal. However, some sort of click glitch occurred, and a lot of people are calling it a glitch. I checked my placements using the Soro extension, and I hadn't been removed from any of the carousels. I was still in the top carousels, and I was still in the lower carousels. So either there was some sort of click discrepancy and reporting error with Amazon, or since all my videos are still there, maybe there just wasn't any traffic coming to those pages, which I don't really believe. I'm sure Amazon kept doing business as usual, so I'm guessing this is some sort of click error or reporting error.
💰 My Earnings for October 2023
Now, let's take a look at my earnings for October 2023. I only added 13 new videos, which means that my total videos now are 466. Those 466 videos were responsible for sending 21,21,34 clicks, which is up from last month. However, I didn't make more money because I had more clicks. My shoppable videos on YouTube with my Amazon Associates link netted me an extra $77.64 this month, but even that was down as well.
So, how much money did I make in the Amazon influencer program in October 2023? I usually say about $100 a day as my minimum requirement for living, which is about $3,000 a month. In October 2023, with all this crazy crap going on, I made $2,849.18. Adding my YouTube earnings into that, that means that I made $2,927.47 last month. While that's still enough to pay my bills, it's the first month in a long time where I did not hit my $3,000 a month requirement. This will be the first month technically that I would have to dip into my savings in order to pay my bills, which is a huge bummer.
📈 My Overall Earnings for the Year
Despite the weirdness of October 2023, I'm still very grateful for the Amazon influencer program. If you total up my earnings so far this year, I have made $36,988 by being an Amazon influencer. About $30,000 a year technically is about what I need to pay my bills, so I already hit that in October. Whatever happens in November and December is just kind of extra or just kind of gravy, which is awesome.
📝 Tips for Becoming an Amazon Influencer

Finally, it's important to stay motivated and committed to the program, even during months when earnings may be down.
