Advertise on podcast: The Strategic Creator with Nicole Vincent

What happens when your Amazon Influencer business starts growing... but you realize you cannot keep working more and more hours? In this episode of The Strategic Creator, Shanna Martinez is back to share what has changed during her first year in the Amazon Influencer Program. Shanna is a full-time working mom of two young children, and her Amazon Influencer business grew quickly. But as the opportunities increased, so did the pressure to constantly film, upload, research products, message brands, and do “just one more thing.” Eventually, she realized something had to change. We talk about how Shanna restructured her Amazon Influencer workflow, hired a virtual assistant, cut her own workload dramatically, and continued growing her income while creating more time for her family. We also get into: • Hiring a VA for Amazon Influencer • What tasks she outsourced • Product research and Creator Connections • Scaling without working more hours • Avoiding creator burnout • Viral Vue vs Oink Pro • Using multiple Amazon Influencer tools strategically • When paid tools are actually worth the money • Working toward Amazon Creator Stars Platinum • Niching down for YouTube and offsite content • Building additional income streams • Finding mentors and courses that save time • Learning to fail fast • Balancing Amazon Influencer with a full-time job and family One of my favorite takeaways from this conversation is that scaling does NOT always mean doing more yourself. Sometimes the next level is figuring out what only YOU need to do... and getting help with the rest.

(affiliate link) **** What if you could automate some of the most repetitive parts of your Amazon Influencer and affiliate marketing business? In this interview, I sit down with Liz Dean, creator of Influencer Butler and an affiliate marketer with more than 23 years of experience. Liz started in affiliate marketing when the internet was still in its early days, went on to build a large Instagram community, taught thousands of creators, and eventually brought her tech and coding background into the Amazon Influencer world. And Influencer Butler is the result. We talk about how Liz went from creating scripts for herself to building a desktop application designed to automate repetitive tasks for creators and affiliate marketers. We also dive into some of the tools inside Influencer Butler, including: ✨ Automating deal research and deal posting ✨ Finding Amazon and Walmart deals based on your own criteria ✨ Creator Connections automation ✨ Prioritizing products you already own and should film first ✨ Watching brands for new product releases ✨ Finding potential paid brand collaborations ✨ Re-uploading content to additional marketplaces ✨ Scheduling and automating offsite affiliate content ✨ Deep linking options ✨ Facebook posting strategies and automation ✨ Influencer Butler's free Chrome extension ✨ And a LOT more One of my biggest takeaways from this conversation is that automation isn't about removing yourself from your business. It's about removing repetitive work so you can spend your time on the things that actually need YOU. We also talk about something I believe strongly: diversification. Building multiple income streams and multiple ways to reach your audience can make a huge difference in this business.

There are SO many tools available for Amazon Influencers now. Which ones actually help, what does each one do, and which ones might be worth paying for?

We’ll talk about tools for: ✅ Product research ✅ Creator Connections research ✅ Tracking sales and commissions ✅ Finding products worth creating videos for ✅ Storefront strategy ✅ Content planning and workflow ✅ Making smarter decisions with your time and money I’ll also share where I think some tools overlap, which ones serve very different purposes, and how I personally decide what is worth keeping in my own business.

This video is sponsored by Creator Kit. Thank you! 😊 Get CreatorKit Here: https://geni.us/creatorkit (affiliate link) In this Creator Kit tutorial, I’m showing Amazon Influencers how to use Creator Kit for Creator Connections research, product research, deal sharing, Sponsored Products campaigns, and mobile workflow. One of the biggest things that makes Creator Kit different is that it is very mobile-friendly. If you’re an Amazon Influencer who wants to research products, browse Creator Connections, or share deals from your phone, this tool can make that process a lot easier. In this tutorial, I walk through: ✨ Searching Creator Connections without constantly jumping between tabs ✨ Using Creator Kit’s mirrored campaign system ✨ Filtering products by price, sales, discounts, reviews, carousel details, and more ✨ Checking campaign slots, budget, commission rate, and campaign length ✨ Using the remote control feature from your phone ✨ Accepting campaigns through Creator Kit ✨ Sponsored Products campaign scanning ✨ Max Mode for offsite deal sharing ✨ Finding vetted deals from your phone ✨ Copying deal text and images for offsite posts ✨ Customizing deal posts before sharing Creator Kit is not necessarily replacing every larger Amazon Influencer tool. I see it more as a niche tool that can be especially helpful if you want mobile-friendly Creator Connections research, deal sharing, and a smoother offsite workflow.

In this interview, I’m sitting down with Aubrey to talk about his journey from eBay reselling to Amazon selling, and now into the Amazon Influencer Program. Aubrey has been entrepreneurial for years, starting with garage sales, Goodwill, eBay, Amazon FBA, wholesale, and now Amazon Influencer content. What I loved about this conversation is how practical and honest he was about what it actually takes to scale. We talk about getting denied on his first Amazon Influencer approval attempt, getting more comfortable on camera, using faceless videos early on, shifting into face-forward videos, hiring a VA, requesting samples, product research, tools, Creator Connections, filming volume, and building systems that let him focus more on creating videos. In this interview, we talk about: ✨ Starting with eBay, garage sales, and Goodwill finds ✨ Moving from eBay to Amazon FBA and wholesale ✨ Getting into the Amazon Influencer Program ✨ Getting denied on the first approval attempt ✨ Why he started with faceless videos ✨ How face-forward videos helped build trust ✨ Scaling from around $800/month to $3,500+ ✨ Filming 10–25 videos a day ✨ How his VA helps with samples, brand messages, and audits ✨ Tools, software, and Creator Connections strategy ✨ Why video length and carousel placement matter ✨ Comparison videos and product investing ✨ Avoiding wasted time and focusing on income-producing work If you are an Amazon Influencer trying to scale, get more organized, or figure out where to spend your time, this interview is packed with practical advice. Drop a comment and let me know: are you filming consistently, or is that the biggest bottleneck right now?

Today I’m sitting down with Lori Richardson — a self-proclaimed introvert who found a strategy that finally clicked in the Amazon Influencer Program… and helped her cross $5,000/month. 🙌 In this interview, Lori shares what changed everything: ✨ Why she stopped trying to “be everywhere” on social media ✨ The daily consistency that built real momentum ✨ How Creator Connections became a game changer for her income ✨ How she built a workflow that supports US + Canada + UK + YouTube uploads ✨ Why she’s not afraid of low-priced items (and how they can still win) ✨ How she built a family strategy with multiple storefronts If you’ve felt stalled, burned out, or unsure if you can do this as an introvert… this one is for you. 💪 🎁 Lori’s Viral Vue discount/code + links: https://viralvue.com/join?fpr=lori12 - Use code: CREATIVELADY10 ⚠️ Disclaimer: Income results vary.

Today I’m honored to sit down with Kade Peterson — creator, Amazon Influencer, and one of the minds behind ViralVue. We talk about his journey from Amazon reselling and brand-building to going all-in on the Amazon Influencer Program, plus what content creators can learn from rebuilding after major platform setbacks. This conversation is packed with practical strategy and real mindset truth — especially if you’re trying to grow your influence, simplify your process, and stay focused on what actually moves the needle. In this interview, we cover 👇 ✨ How Kade started as an Amazon reseller and built brands ✨ Discovering the Amazon Influencer Program (and the first “it works!” commissions) ✨ Why tools matter and how ViralVue came to life ✨ The power of community and learning from other creators ✨ Losing a major TikTok account and rebuilding to 2M+ followers across platforms ✨ A powerful reminder: focus on what’s in your control when platforms change ✨ “Diluted focus gets diluted results” and how Kade simplified his priorities ✨ Why YouTube is a smart 2026 focus for Amazon Influencers ✨ Repurposing Amazon videos to YouTube + deep links + long-term earnings ✨ Media kits for brand deals and how to stand out to busy brands ✨ The Amazon Influencer Program as a long-term game (not instant gratification) ✨ Content growth tips: shorter videos, no dead space, strong first second ✨ Top advice for entrepreneurs: consistency, discomfort, stay teachable… and have fun All of Kade’s links (and ViralVue, plus my discount link/code) Personal insta: https://www.instagram.com/kade_peterson?igsh=azd4NHZtY3VmajNo&utm_source=qr Viral vue insta https://www.instagram.com/viral_vue?igsh=cWY0a2Izb2k2NXI3&utm_source=qr ViralVue YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGv489SCl5XkBjM-Jggy7Ug 💰 Get Viral Vue here: https://viralvue.com/join?fpr=nicole Use code NICOLE for 10% off any plan ------------------------- 🔵 Follow Me on Facebook: www.facebook.com/vintx 🔥 Join my Influencer Skool group: https://www.skool.com/influencer-strategy-wnicole-v-2818 💰Get my beginner course here: https://nicolervincent.mvsite.app/products/courses/view/1192313 📧 Sign up for my newsletter here: https://forms.gle/6mZFsxmtX98zE1eK8 Affiliate Links: 🐷 Get the Google Chrome OINK Extension here: https://bit.ly/nrvOINK Use code NICOLE10 for 10% off the Pro Version 🍌 Get Fluencer Fruit here: https://bit.ly/NicoleFF (You get the lowest "friend" price with my link - no code needed) 💰 Get Viral Vue here: https://viralvue.com/join?fpr=nicole Use code NICOLE for 10% off any plan #AmazonInfluencerProgram #AmazonInfluencer #ViralVue #ContentCreator #CreatorEconomy FTC Disclaimer: As an Amazon Influencer and affiliate for various websites and services, I may earn a commission on some products or services purchased through the links shared here.

Get Logie5 Here: https://geni.us/logie5yt In this interview, I’m sitting down with Ehud Segev, the founder of Logie and Logie5, to talk about Amazon, Amazon Live, the Amazon Influencer Program, Creator Connections, AI product research, and where this space is heading. Ehud has been in the Amazon world since 2012, first as an Amazon seller, then working with brands, product listings, Amazon video shorts, Amazon Live, and eventually building Logie to connect brands and creators. Now, with Amazon changing reporting and removing so much creator data, Ehud and his team built Logie5 as an AI assistant for Amazon Influencers. We talk about: ✨ Ehud’s Amazon seller journey ✨ The early days of Amazon product videos and Amazon Live ✨ How Logie started ✨ Why Amazon reporting changes created a major shift ✨ How Logie5 was built with input from top Amazon Influencers ✨ Why Logie5 is designed more like an AI assistant than a regular tool ✨ Creator Connections research ✨ Product scores and campaign scores ✨ How to find better products to review ✨ Using AI to understand what videos are actually working ✨ Why strategy matters more than guessing If you are an Amazon Influencer, creator, or someone trying to make smarter product decisions, this conversation is packed with insight.

Today I’m sitting down with Beth and Grayson Thompson, an absolute power couple in the Amazon Influencer Program. They’ve been in the program since mid-2024 and they’re sharing what’s working, what they had to learn the hard way, and how they’ve built serious momentum, including $21K in the last 90 days. In this interview we talk about their journey from Amazon FBA to onsite video income, how product research changed everything, and why treating this like a real business matters (even if your goal is “just” a few hundred dollars a month). We also get into tools like Oink and Viral View, time protection, brand relationships, and why integrity and communication with brands is a big deal if you want long-term success. We also talk about how they divide roles as a couple (innovator vs implementer), how they stay consistent with kids at home, and what they’re focusing on in 2026, including YouTube growth, content protection, and smarter brand deals. If you’re building income streams and you want practical, grounded perspective from people who are actually doing it, you’re going to love this one. 🙌 Thanks for being here.

Grab CreatorKit - https://app.creatorkitapp.com/?via=nicole (affiliate link) In this interview, I’m sitting down with Vik from Creator Kit to talk about Amazon Creator Connections, offsite strategy, sponsored clicks, product research, and how he’s built serious income by driving traffic to Amazon. Vik’s main focus is not onsite shoppable videos. He focuses on offsite traffic, deal sharing, Creator Connections campaigns, sponsored clicks, and using data to find better opportunities.

In this interview, I’m talking with Haley, a stay-at-home mom of two who started the Amazon Influencer Program in December 2025 and spent her first few months feeling stuck. From December through April, she had made around $1,000 total, even though she was putting in the time and effort. Then she decided to slow down, invest in learning, take Data Coach Claire’s course, and really understand product research, video strategy, and how to use tools like Oink, Viral View, and Jungle Scout. That shift changed everything. By June 2026, Haley had made around $5,500 through the Amazon Influencer Program, and during Prime Day she had a single day around $1,400 between onsite and Creator Connections commissions. In this conversation, we talk about how Haley got accepted, what she did wrong at the beginning, why product research made such a difference, how she chooses products to invest in, what happened when some products flopped, why real-life videos can convert, and how she fits this business into life with two little kids. We also talk about using Oink and Viral View, repurposing Amazon videos to YouTube, offsite income, Canada international storefronts, selling flopped investments on Facebook Marketplace, finding community, avoiding comparison, and why it’s okay to build your business around your actual season of life. If you are a newer Amazon Influencer, a stay-at-home parent, or someone trying to turn this program into real income, Haley’s story is such a good reminder that being stuck does not mean you are failing. Sometimes you just need the right strategy, the right support, and the willingness to learn.

In this interview, I’m talking with Jen Aquila, a former teacher, photographer, Amazon Influencer, and UGC creator who has built multiple income streams through side hustles and online entrepreneurship. Jen started as a teacher in Canada, built a successful photography business, and then began layering in different online income streams like Etsy, network marketing, Amazon Influencer, affiliate marketing, digital marketing, mystery shopping, and eventually UGC. In this conversation, Jen shares how she side hustled her way into entrepreneurship, why she kept looking for flexible income options, how she got started in the Amazon Influencer Program, what changed when Amazon income started dipping, and how UGC became one of her biggest income streams. We also talk about what UGC actually is, how it compares to Amazon shoppable videos, why you don’t need a huge audience to get started, how brands work with UGC creators, what to know about pricing and boundaries, and how Jen is now making five figures with UGC while still balancing family, photography, Amazon, and other online income streams. If you are an Amazon Influencer, content creator, stay-at-home mom, photographer, side hustler, or someone looking for flexible online income ideas, this interview will give you a lot to think about.

In this interview, I’m sitting down with Susan Brown, a brand-new Amazon Influencer who found success quickly after a major life shift forced her to become incredibly resourceful. Susan shares how she went from a devastating personal and financial crisis to using the skills she had built over years of selling on Facebook Marketplace, eBay, and other platforms to start building income through the Amazon Influencer Program.
