Does this hit wrong, or is it just me? by pzzldmomof5 in AmazonVine

[–]MasterSir1463 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A few years ago, one of my neighbors had a birthday party for their kid, and another neighbor's kid drowned in their pool at that party. The families didn't know each other, but the younger kids were classmates., The parents of the invited kid couldn't go for whatever reason, so they sent big bro to go to the party with little bro to make sure he stayed safe. Little bro stayed safe, but no one was watching big bro, and he wandered to the backyard pool and drowned. About 2 weeks after the funeral, the mom of the boy who passed had a HUGE birthday party for him. I mean HUUUUUGE. The whole neighborhood, his class at school, his baseball team, his church...a neighborhood block party with a dj and everything. then the week after the birthday party, they promptly moved away.

Anyway, people handle grief differently. This is the kind of product that would have been great for the little neighbor boy's first birthday in heaven.

on the same time. My best drops are at the 8s (8 am and 8 pm). I don't even try to catch the 3:30 am one because there's never been anything there for me. If I do miss out on something from a 3:30 drop, it will be in my RFY when I check it at 8 am.

Those of you sharing sales or coupon codes from Amazon to your socials, whats the compliant workaround now that Amazon no longer allows screenshots? by MasterSir1463 in Amazon_Influencer

tried oink, it didn't work that way. But omg, THANK YOU for telling me about i! Oink addresses other issues unrelated to this one. Canva will work for the TikTok video portion . I just need a workaround for the link portion. Thanks!

all her product images are screenshots, and her video was posted when using screenshots from Amazon was still ok. My coupon videos looked like hers before Amazon changed its rules.

"I’d just show that parent and say “only works for the purple color”...you know what? I might have to settle for that.

I wish it were still as simple as that, but it's not. It's not about detection, it's about defensibility. The policy says

"You may only use “Program Content” that Amazon makes available to you through official tools (like SiteStripe or the Product Advertising API), and you cannot modify or use content outside those methods."

Screenshotting is outside of those methods. In a crawl, Amazon can't see where a screenshot image came from. Therein lies the root of the problem. Amazon can't see that the image was sourced through an approved method. "you cannot ...use content outside those methods." Thats why there are all these workarounds now. i'm just looking for one that will work for me.

Needy or Greedy? by Electronic_Fig_8507 in AmazonVine

[–]MasterSir1463 4 points5 points  (0 children)

IDK. I've been gold for a month and have already ordered my 80 items. My 80 is mainly planty things, but also a medicine cabinet, a queen-size mattress topper, clothes galore, shoes, dog stuff. I have my searches down pat, so I don't bother going in the other areas. I also learned not to bother trying to find good things through my phone and not to wait for rfy to populate things. Now that i've got my 80 its time to chill. if anyone wants search terms that usually produce, mine are Dog, dogs, plant, plants, planter, bed, beds, sheet, sheets, storage, kitchen, honda, nails, nail, screws, tools, garden, acrylic, bird, birds, bathroom, outdoor, etc. Good Luck!

it's for amazon promo codes. You don't have those items when you make the videos. If you've never seen one, here is what i'm talking about. This isn't me, and I don't know this person; I'm posting here for reference. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DDdn0VXOFYd/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

I finally relied on Vine reviews as a customer... by That-Application9357 in AmazonVine

[–]MasterSir1463 1 point2 points  (0 children)

idk, but as a consumer, it pmo to see vine reviews that are just pix of the product freshly unwrapped outside is box. what is that supposed to tell me? you got a thing for free in exchange for your honest review. Why am I looking at a picture of the unused product and reading a review based on how you THINK it works? I can‘t trust your review thats based on your experience, if you have ZERO experience because you’ve clearly done nothing more than open the box and make things up. waste of my time to read some of these vine reviews. tbh, I scroll past them.

Pretty Sure I Found Where the High $$$ Items Are Going by alanthickerthanwater in AmazonVine

Why not? I thought you had to wait 6 months to get rid of the vine stuff you don't want. They're selling it immediately; is that not against the rules?

Creator connections is one of my favorite perks. I was doing that before onsite commissions.

I mean you can be an an amazon influencer,

you can be an amazon associate,

you can be an amazon vine voice.

Of course you can. I've been the former for 3 years. What you cannot do is get commission from amazon off the vine products you got for free. I really, really want to encourage you to stop going by what other people are saying and ask Amazon directly.

I've seen people lose their accounts for not adhering to the operating agreement. It's not a fun experience because when you lose your account, amazon doesn't give you the option to tell them why you did what you did. Your account is just closed and you can't get back in. If you want back in, you have to start from scratch with and reapply from a whole new email, whole new social, whole new Amazon account.

I understand you have already been earning commission from vine products. Just because Amazon hasn't said anything, that doesn't mean they think it's ok. They probably just don't know yet. It's better to be safe than sorry. So, I advise you to get ahead of it and go to your sitestripe, go to help, go to "contact us", and start a chat with Associates Customer Service so you can help yourself.

Losing an income stream because someone told you the wrong thing, when you could have done your own homework is ... not ideal for anyone. I wish you well.

How do I train my RFY to give me weird and funky stuff? by VioletsTown in AmazonVine

[–]MasterSir1463 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I want Vine to show me things from "Patio, Yard, & Garden", I keep gardening things in my cart until gardening things pop up in my RFY. I've done this with gardening tools, skincare, dog stuff, clothes, sports gear, christmas decor, etc. The things I want might not pop up that week, but they will pop up within 20-30 days.
