1. Amazon Merch (Print-on-Demand)
Are you a creative person? Then you might be able to profit from your artwork by selling it on Amazon Merch.
Your first step should be to create a design that would look good on merchandise such as t-shirts or pop sockets. When your design is finished, you upload it to Amazon Merch.
When a customer orders a product with your design on it, Amazon prints it for them on the spot. With each purchase, you earn money from royalties. There is no need for you to keep an inventory yourself.
If you're artistic, this is a great option for you. It's even better if you're an artist with a social media following.
You could inform your followers about your design once it has been listed on Amazon. As more people purchase your design, Amazon will increase its visibility to other visitors to the site.
To gain an even bigger advantage, you could pay attention to current trends and create designs that fit in with them. Another strategy is to use Amazon or Google autofill to see what kinds of designs your potential customers want.
2. Kindle Passive Publishing Profits
To be honest, this is our favorite way to make money on Amazon. If you want to pursue this option without making any investments, you'll need to create your own books. This includes the time spent writing, editing, and designing a book cover.
However, if you are capable of doing those things, that is fantastic. You'll be able to start earning passive publishing costs without spending any money. We know many writers who chose this path because they possessed the necessary skills.
Our personal plan is to write fiction books. There is a high demand for them, and readers will devour books before looking for more.
You can write and publish a fiction book of 50,000 words or more on Kindle. If you write books consistently for a year, you'll be able to establish a decent passive income if you've done your market research correctly.
Even if you are not a writer, you can publish a book on Kindle. Puzzle books, such as crossword puzzles or sudoku, are an option for those who are not interested in literature.
Check out Amazon's game section to see what's popular. Make your puzzle book into a paperback, and you'll be well on your way to making some money.
Coloring books were, in fact, one of the first things we published on Amazon. We were able to create them for free, and by the second month they believe, we had made around $10,000 whicoloringing books was popular.
They still make us money because they're available on Amazon.
3. Audiobook Narration
You can always narrate audiobooks if you don't want to create books but still want to work with them. All you have to do is apply to be a narrator at ACX.com.
For those who are unfamiliar, ACX is Audible's back end. Audible audiobooks are either uploaded by large publishers or through recordings submitted to ACX.
After creating an account on ACX, you create a profile, upload some samples, and effectively audition for books that interest you. More information about the process can be found on ACX's narration page.
It's the same as doing freelance work, but on a more professional platform than UpWork. Furthermore, when you publish a book through ACX, you will receive free redemption codes, just like the publisher. You can give them out to readers, who then get the book for free, but you still get paid for it. Aside from being paid to narrate the book, you're also being paid to distribute these free codes.
You can also earn money by referring people to Audible. You'll get $75 if someone signs up for Audible using your specific link (called a bounty URL).
We believe that this is the next big way to make money online.
4. Amazon Affiliate Program
Amazon recently reduced the rates for its affiliate programme, but that doesn't mean you can't still make a decent living doing it. We're currently earning between $100 and $200 per day from the affiliate programme.
We'll go over the basics of how it works and what you need to do, but if you want a more detailed guide, you can read our walkthrough here.
The first step is to join the Amazon Affiliate programme. You'll be able to get affiliate links to products on the site once you've signed up.
Ideally, you'll have created a blog site where you can write posts about Amazon products while intertwining your affiliate links. Because WordPress is so user-friendly, we prefer to build our blog sites with it. Even if you're not technically savvy, you can figure it out fairly quickly.
Your affiliate link does not have to be on a blog, though that is the method that has worked best for us. You can also spread the word through social media. You simply cannot promote the link via email at this time.
You get a portion of the proceeds as a commission every time someone clicks on your link and makes a purchase on Amazon within 24 hours.
5. Amazon Mechanical Turk
To be honest, of all the options presented in this guide, this one will be the least profitable for you. However, we believe it is still worth mentioning.
In a nutshell, Mechanical Turk is a programme that allows you to perform various virtual tasks for Amazon or other businesses. It's similar to an outsourcing marketplace.
However, we cannot guarantee that you will be able to do so if you are not in the United States. If you live in a low-cost-of-living area, the small amount of money you could make doing microtasks on Mechanical Turk could be a great option for you.
6. WRAP UP
You could start making money on Amazon using any of the methods in this guide. It only takes time, effort, and some effort on your part.
If the most significant barrier to starting another business model was cost, you could use some of your profits from these Amazon income options to expand. Save some of the money you make this way and use it to start new online businesses as soon as possible.
We firmly believe in having a diverse online portfolio. Amazon is a massive and profitable business (to put it mildly), but that doesn't mean you should rely solely on them for an online income.
High-ticket dropshipping is our most successful online business model. We believe it can be very user-friendly, and we've had a lot of success with it over the years. You can find out more about it by reading our dropshipping basics guide.
Otherwise, you can sign up for our free Online Assets Playbook to learn how to build your own online portfolio.
