Some of my better selling items on Amazon...and I can use your help
This is both a recap and a shameless plug. If you have any upcoming purchases you are planning to make on Amazon, please consider using my link below. It won't cost you any extra and I'll get a small commission.
If you can help me out today, wonderful. But, this is an ongoing program, so any time you are buying from Amazon, it can boost my sales a bit.
As many of you know, I became an Amazon Associate at the beginning of the year. It's a way to generate some passive income from my blog.
When people click through my links on recommended products, AT NO ADDITIONAL COST, I receive a small commission. Generally, the "cookie" is only good for 24 hrs...so if someone buys that item (or any other item) within 24 hrs, I get that commission. (But, if they buy later, I don't get anything.)
Generally, the commission rates start at 4% and as you sell more items in the month you commission rates increase. Right now, for this month, I'm at a 6.5% rate. Last month, I hit a new high of 7%. You need to have 111 items shipped within the calendar month to get to 7%. So far this month, 87 items have shipped and 7 more were purchased this morning, so I should be at 94 items. So, I'm hoping 17 more items are purchased by tomorrow night (as it may take 24 hrs to ship). I would have been there is an order of 16 cans of polyurethan actually shipped, but for some reason they didn't (and I have no idea why).
Last month, I got lucky as one person ordered 41 items all at once - some inexpensive light switches.
Hoping someone comes through either today or tomorrow. We shall see.
Anyway, if you were thinking of buying anything on Amazon , use this link and it will help me. It won't cost you any extra. But, if you're thinking about buying something for Father's Day, or a graduate, or a friend...or for youself, go ahead an use this Amazon link (or any link on this page to Amazon). It doesn't need to be flooring related. It can be anything.
I thought I'd share the top items that my customers are selecting:
Bona Hardwood Cleaner
Felt Pads
Doggie Socks
Mats that go underneath rolling office chairs
And, here are some of the "bigger" ticket items that some of my customers have bought (these are not from my recommendations, but they just happen to buy them that day on Amazon:
- Supervision of Police Personnel
- Tivo Remote
- All in one printer
On my site, things look better and everything is context/picts are bigger. And, there is a buy on Amazon button, but I haven't yet been able to get that button on here yet. Also, I have a plugin on my site (costs $47, but I got for $29 via an affiliate link) which extends the "cookie" for 90 days IF they add the item to their cart.
So, anyway, if you plan on buying anything on Amazon, I'd love if you can use this link. You can also find the link at the bottom of my footer on any post.
Thanks in advance.
Oh, and I'll keep you posted when the month ends what my commission is for the month. So far, it's around $117.
