How to Make Money with Amazon Affiliate Marketing: A Step-by-Step Guide
Let’s find out how you can earn money with Amazon Affiliate marketing using AI videos.
Step 1: Choose a Profitable Niche
The first step in boosting your income with Amazon Affiliate is making a thorough strategy. Though it seems simple, you need a comprehensive plan to gain the trust of consumers and sell professionally. Start by selecting a profitable niche. Here are some things you must consider while choosing your niche.
- Market Demand: While choosing a product, make sure the audience wants it. Read user reviews, post comments on viral social media platforms, and check its Amazon buyer’s data.
- Interest: Choose a product you’re genuine about. It can motivate you to stick to the products in the long run.
- Competition: Select a niche that is not supersaturated. A moderately competitive niche can help you stand out in the market.
- Product Availability: Make sure Amazon has a decent collection of products in your chosen niche.
Step 2: Search for In-Demand Products
Selected your niche? Now, find a product video that is trending on social media. The best way to do this is a quick TikTok search for Amazon Finds or Amazon Products 2024. While browsing the popular results, focus on the ones trying to solve a problem.
- For instance, a mini steam iron is an excellent, high-demand product for travelers who want to pack light during trips and avoid bulky irons.
Another way to check whether a product is worth promoting is through the comment section. If people are talking about a certain product and leaving good reviews about how it helped them, definitely add it to your Amazon Finds product list. Once done, follow these steps to obtain it.
- Open TikTok and search for Amazon Finds 2024. Select one product video for affiliate marketing.
- Once selected, download the video. You can use any video downloading software like Tikmake that lets you export videos using their links without the watermark.
- Now, play the downloaded video to identify the product’s name. You may take a screenshot of the frame displaying the product’s name.
- Got the product name? Open Google Lens search and upload the screenshot of the video frame. This will help you find the exact product.
- Next, open Amazon and paste this name in the search box. Depending on the buyer’s data, select one product from the list.
- Open the desired product and download its demo video from the product page. You may use any good video downloader, like the Video Downloader Professional.
Step 3: Create Viral, Interactive Content with AI
Once you have the product video, the next step is integrating it into a trendy, viral ad. Today, AI tools have streamlined the video creation process. With such tools, you don’t have to worry about investing hefty resources into the content.
In this step, I will use a similar AI video creation tool, Wondershare Virbo, that uses advanced algorithms to create trendy content and transform your product’s URLs into interactive videos. So, follow these simple steps.
- First, download the Wondershare Virbo desktop app. Or, you may also use its online version.
- You can access desired video tools, including talking photos, script generator, montage maker, URL-to-video, etc from the dashboard.

- Users are also free to use ready-to-edit video templates for various use cases like eCommerce, social media, and more.
I am using the AI montage maker to make my Amazon product video. Here is how it goes.
- Before you proceed, log into your Wondershare account or register for a new account.
- Once logged in, press AI Montage Maker from the dashboard.
- Now, you have two options, generate a video using the product page’s links or upload media manually. As it supports most eCommerce stores, including Amazon, I will press Analyze URL.
- Paste your Amazon product link and press Analyze URL.
- Once done, you will see the video divided into shorter clips. If you find unnecessary clips in the generated video, simply select them and hit Delete. Also, press Add Media to include the content you downloaded from TikTok.
- Below the generated video, you will see a script. Add or remove text in the script to your suitability.
- Likewise, adjust the Aspect Ratio, Duration, Language, and Video Type as per the platform you will be posting the video on. As I will be posting my video on YouTube and TikTok, I would adjust the video to 9:16 size, 30 seconds long, and in English, with AI voiceovers and avatars.
- Done adjusting? Press Generate.
- You will see three different videos generated by Virbo’s montage maker. Review the options and select the one that best suits your preferences.

Seems like something is missing? Don’t worry, you can edit the generated video further in the editing space. Just click Edit and adjust a few details.
- Once on the editing panel, refine the script from the bottom-left corner.
- After finalizing the script, choose a voiceover from just below the script. Adjust things like gender, language, and features you want to voiceover. Pick from the various options and click Apply to All Storyboards > OK.
- You can also change the avatar. Just click the avatar on the screen, browse from a collection, set preference, and choose one. Once decided, click Apply to All Storyboards > OK.
- Next, customize the avatar in a way that helps you build trust with your audience and make the video interactive. I usually like to apply them to the most significant part of the video from the Timeline view. You are also free to change its appearance from the right-side panel.
- Let’s say you didn’t like the script for one clip. Just upgrade it. Press the small T icon from the bottom toolbar, adjust your preferences, and revise it.
- For promotional product video series, adding text is a must for me. For this, I simply go to the Text tab from the top toolbar and select Style or Text Template. Click anywhere on the video and enter the text.
- Now that the video is almost done, let’s change the background music. Go to the right-side customization panel and browse through music options. Select one, and adjust its voice level, subtitles, etc.

Follow these simple steps to promote your affiliate products through YouTube.
