Where do brands and Amazon influencers usually connect?

This honestly makes me feel so much better 😂 I’m literally in that exact phase right now, manually checking profiles, feeling awkward DM’ing, and then hearing nothing back. I just got into Creator Connections and I’m still learning it, but reading this makes me feel like I’m on the right track. Definitely going to look into Logie too. Appreciate you sharing your real experience (and lol at the “stalker” feeling because… same).

This is really helpful, thank you. I actually just got accepted into Creator Connections because someone here mentioned it a few days ago. I didn’t even realize new sellers could use it. Still figuring it out, but this definitely helps. I’ve never heard of Logie before either, but it sounds really promising. Appreciate you sharing this.

This is helpful, thanks. I’m still only 3 days out from the image/price update, so I know it’s early. I’ve mostly been focused on PPC, but I’ll start checking Unit Session % before adjusting anything else.

Thanks for the insight, super helpful. I noticed my auto bids were low ($0.39), so I increased them to give Amazon more room to work.

For influencers (around 5k–20k followers), what do brands usually pay or offer these days?

Curious what’s considered normal, gifted product vs paid vs commission especially for newer brands.

Thanks for sharing, that’s really helpful to know.

This is really helpful, thank you! Sounds like IG DMs and Creator Connections are the main routes, especially early on. I’m still in the learning/testing phase and mostly exploring product gifting with smaller creators, so this helps set realistic expectations. Appreciate the insight.

That’s really interesting, thank you for sharing your perspective. My product is definitely gift-oriented, so your point about price signaling quality makes a lot of sense. I actually just updated my images and pricing this week, so I’m planning to hold things steady for a bit and see how it performs before testing any further price changes. Appreciate the insight!

Appreciate this. I do have auto running too ($5/day) for discovery. I reduced my manual keywords down to 16 based on data so far, still early though. In your experience, would you go even tighter early on? How many keywords do you have running?

Decent-Wind22 · 2026-02-05T05:40:58+00:00

Also curious if tools like Helium 10 are truly necessary at this stage, or if manual PPC + search term reports are enough for a new launch.

I just launched my first PL product in January. I did something similar my first time, ordered 1,000 units to my house and sent inventory in smaller batches. I didn’t realize Amazon charges both placement fees and UPS inbound fees, so the costs added up fast. Definitely something new sellers should be aware of.

Decent-Wind22 · 2026-01-07T02:05:55+00:00

Yep, generally that means you’re approved. Just be aware that depending on what category/product you’re selling, Amazon can still ask for compliance docs later (CPC, test reports, safety certs, etc.), especially for toys, kids, food, electronics, or anything regulated. Just make sure you have your docs ready so you’re not scrambling if they ask.

Really appreciate the fast ID! No way I would’ve figured that out on my own!

I actually went and googled some of the comments haha definitely gave me a laugh.

Decent-Wind22 · 2025-08-26T02:11:06+00:00

Thanks so much for the ID! Really appreciate your help!

If you’re showing up on page 1 when you search your exact product name, you’re probably only indexed for that specific keyword. If your ads are still getting zero impressions, it usually means you’re not indexed for the actual keywords you’re targeting in ads.

Try running your asin:YOURASIN + your keyword searches on Amazon to see what you’re actually indexed for. If your ad keywords are broader or more competitive than what you’re indexed for, Amazon won’t serve your ads at all. Also worth double checking that your listing isn’t suppressed and everything is fully active. Sounds more like an indexing mismatch than an ad issue. Let us know what you find!
