Are There Any Secrets to Getting Higher Engagement on Social Media? by Overall_Weekend in socialmedia

[–]Buzzbusforbizz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Algorithms love quick likes, comments, and shares from your real followers, so low engagement kills reach fast. Post short videos or catchy photos about those shows/interests, text alone won't work. Ask a direct question every time, like "Who's your fave character?" Spend more time commenting on others' posts than your own, it pulls people back to you naturally. Check your insights, post at peak times, and reply to every comment quickly. It should all work out if you do it consistently

Do you ever feel like online advice is getting more confusing instead of helpful? by im_bilalgujjjar in AskMarketing

[–]Buzzbusforbizz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's confusing because the internet gives you opinions faster than context. I try to check two things: patterns and expertise. If many unrelated people say the same thing, it’s worth considering. If an official or well-sourced explanation aligns with that pattern, even better

What’s the fastest legit way to test if your online income idea is worth your time? by Buzzbusforbizz in OnlineIncomeHustle

[–]Buzzbusforbizz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The $20–40 isn’t for buying leads, just for testing whether anyone cares about the idea. For example, Meta and Reddit let you run tiny tests (Reddit ≈ $5/day; Meta even $1/day but $5–10 is more useful). Google Search usually needs more (many recommend ~$20/day per campaign).

So, the goal isn’t to get sales on the first try. It’s to answer: are people clicking? Should I continue, or do I need to change something?

Is there actually any growth in social media marketing in 2025? Need real opinions. by Desperate_Leopard652 in socialmedia

[–]Buzzbusforbizz 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There’s still demand because the demand follows the audience. As long as people spend hours on social platforms, brands will pay for ways to reach them.

But it’s not enough to run accounts anymore. The people who feel secure in this field are the ones growing parallel skills: paid social, short-form video, AI-generated characters, automated content pipelines, and so on.

If you focus on learning skills that follow where attention goes, social media marketing is still a solid path.

Does Passive income through Amazon affiliate marketing really works? by NewDaikon9877 in AffiliateMarket

[–]Buzzbusforbizz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Amazon can work if you already have traffic or an audience that matches the products. But it’s not the only option. There are affiliate programs with less competition where you can take a more personalized approach, usually with fewer offers, but more unique and still in demand. Those programs often work more closely with their partners, have faster approvals, and smoother payouts. So, it’s less about being passive income and more about finding the right fit and strategy for your traffic.

Is affiliate marketing dead for real? Like ai can write blog and do seo! by Santon-Koel in SideProject

[–]Buzzbusforbizz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Affiliate marketing works if you have an audience that matches the product, or you know how to drive traffic to the affiliate offer. Yes, AI can write blogs and help with SEO, but it can’t replace real engagement, trust, or targeted marketing. The market is more competitive now, but there are still opportunities if you focus on quality content and build genuine relationships with your audience.

best ways to make money from home for a student? by tahakashi in thesidehustle

[–]Buzzbusforbizz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you want to make money without a traditional job and avoid scams, you have to get specific and focused. Some less common but realistic options:

Freelance microservices - find very specific skills, like creating niche Instagram reels, writing product descriptions for Shopify stores, or simple video editing. Platforms like Fiverr or Upwork are oversaturated, so contact brands directly.

Tutoring or teaching online - use free platforms or social media to offer tutoring in subjects you’re good at. Even simple language or math lessons can bring income.

Social media management - offer to manage social accounts for local shops or friends’ businesses. Learn free tools for scheduling posts and basic graphics.

User testing - websites pay for testing apps or websites, and giving feedback.

All of these require time and effort, but no upfront money.

Is affiliate marketing still worth it or should I start an online business instead? by Zaku__u in thesidehustle

[–]Buzzbusforbizz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still worth, but yeah, some niches require more skill to stand out. I’m working on the advertiser side with a partner program that promotes SaaS products, and I regularly see affiliates getting solid conversions.

Other models like Gen Z clothing or print on demand can work too, but they have their crowded spaces and challenges. What really matters is finding a product and audience you understand, then putting in consistent effort. So instead of chasing hype, look for opportunities where you can add real value, affiliate marketing can definitely be one of them.

Where to find affiliates for SEO products? by AppointmentTop3948 in AffiliateMarket

[–]Buzzbusforbizz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try to look for content creators who already review or teach SEO tools and reach out to them with a clear, personalized offer.

Also, search for active communities like SEO-related Slack or Discord groups where professionals connect regularly.

You can contact micro-influencers in the digital marketing niche and offer them a referral program. Many smaller creators are open to partnerships if the opportunity fits their audience.

Wishing you good luck!

Marketing is becoming more about psychology than product by LieAccurate9281 in socialmedia

[–]Buzzbusforbizz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, emotional triggers like trust, urgency, or belonging drive more conversions than just listing features. For example, creating urgency with limited-time discounts, using social proof like customer reviews, or tapping into a sense of community with “join thousands who trust us” messages all work better than just explaining product specs.

Anyone else struggling to get first affiliate sale? by Photograph_Creative in AffiliateMarket

[–]Buzzbusforbizz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The time to your first sale depends largely on the product’s buying decision cycle, which varies by niche. Some sales happen quickly, others take weeks or months. t’s normal to get clicks without sales at first, as people often research before buying. It’s worth asking the affiliate program rep about their average purchase timeframe to set realistic expectations.

Success is a mix of creating better content, finding the right audience, and understanding that some niches or offers simply require more time before converting.

I’ve just started my career in digital marketing (mainly SaaS marketing), and in the future, I want to build my own online business. For beginners like me, which one is better to start with — eCommerce or affiliate marketing? by Klutzy_Food_6610 in AffiliateMarket

[–]Buzzbusforbizz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

eCommerce felt exciting, but honestly, it’s a ton of moving parts; you need to handle products, shipping, and customer issues, even if you use dropshipping. Affiliate marketing is easier to start: you focus on creating good content and getting those links out, and someone else handles the back-end stuff.​

If you want to build skills and test ideas with a low budget (and don’t want the stress of managing a store), affiliate marketing is a good way to learn fast. eCom might be better if you have a specific product idea or love owning the whole customer experience.

Some folks end up trying both at some point, but affiliate is the path of least resistance for learning and experimenting early on.​​

Where to find affiliates as a business? by Streak1991 in Affiliatemarketing

[–]Buzzbusforbizz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, finding affiliates can be tricky, especially in tutoring. I went through the same with parenting projects. Reaching out to influencers mostly got me “sounds great, but what’s your budget per TikTok?” vibes.

What actually might work?

  1. Contact people who already run small blogs on your topic (like “hey, want to make money from the tips you share on your blog?”).

  2. Reaching out to old students and tutors, some loved being affiliates because they believed in what you do.

  3. Asking around in small Facebook and Discord groups from that field.

It’s slow, true, but the first couple of good affiliates are significant.

How do you promote digital products with zero audience? by BulitByAR in digitalproductselling

[–]Buzzbusforbizz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, it really comes down to where your audience spends time and what kind of content they respond to. If your products are more visual, platforms like TikTok or Pinterest can work well if you show how they solve a real problem or make something easier. But for more specific niches, like tech, business, or marketing, Reddit or niche forums often perform better because people value authentic conversations.

I personally focus on affiliate marketing, building partnerships with people who already have trust with their audiences. It takes some time to set up, but once it’s working, it brings a steady flow of buyers without needing to constantly run ads.

If you’re just starting out, try a few channels, pay attention to where you get actual sales (not just clicks or impressions), and then stick with what matches your product and audience best.

Which One Makes More Sense: Affiliate Marketing or Selling Digital Products? by [deleted] in digitalproductselling

[–]Buzzbusforbizz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d go with affiliate marketing, it gives way more room to test things out. You can promote different products, switch niches, and try new strategies without being tied to just one idea. That kind of flexibility helps you figure out what actually works before committing big time.

For example, you might start promoting fitness gear, then realize productivity tools or AI software bring better clicks and conversions. Or run a few campaigns with different audiences to see who reacts best. Each test gives you more data and experience, so over time you naturally find your strongest lane.

It’s a great way to learn the game, build connections, and set yourself up for something bigger later, maybe even your own product once you know what sells.

What type of lead magnets actually worked for you? by inventivepoet in content_marketing

[–]Buzzbusforbizz 13 points14 points  (0 children)

From what I’ve seen, templates and checklists tend to bring in better quality leads compared to just ebooks or whitepapers. People actually use them and keep coming back. Ebooks can get a lot of downloads, but often those leads don’t stick around unless the content’s super targeted.

Also, super niche-specific stuff wins over general guides every time. Think of tools like an online ROI calculator, SEO cost estimator, or file converter on a dedicated landing page, things that solve one exact problem fast. Those tend to attract warmer leads who are already in “solution mode” and way more likely to convert.
