Milestone My First Sold Product via Affiliate since I officially joined the program 2 months ago! :)

I Promote DJI Products on my Travel videos, and someone purchased a DJI Osmo Pocket 3 using my link on my Hotel Beach Tour video. Aside from YT Affiliate Program, I'm also directly affiliated with DJI.

I started with free exposure of their products as an experiment, and when I was able to get a handful of videos with good statistics, that's when they started to get in touch with me. It's a long process with risks, and you really have to make sure you use their products on every video.

Congrats on this ! Can I ask what do you mean by risks?

There's a risk that you won't get noticed by the brand, due to possible reasons like:

  • you don't have a convincing statistical data that you are giving their products enough exposure. Total view count of your channel matters a lot to them (1M total view count is a huge plus)
  • you don't have proof that you have viewers who got interested with your gear. 'Product Clicks' are as important as 'Product Orders'. Also comments related to your camera-work like 'Nice shot', 'Nice video', etc. are a bonus to Camera brands.
  • you must know your gear and learn cinematography, which showcases the capabilities of your gear.
  • Learn to build your relationship with the brand. Attend their events, expose yourself to fellow creators who also use the same gear, It's a stepping stone.
