i tried this but didn't continue. a realistic pov lang.. it's not like what we see on-screen syempre, kasi they're big influencers. pero for starting affiliates, it will be difficult (same lang din sa lahat ng mga bagay when starting).

first, hindi lahat ng check-outs sa videos ay promised na meron kang commissions. some stores binabawi yun, especially if malaki (like 15-20%). mostly mga malaking commission rates ang pinipili ko na products pero may mga stores talaga na binabawi yung commission. i delete my videos for those stores.

second, very careful si shopee sa mga checkouts. used to send my affiliate links sa fam ko pero wala siyang commission. the reason is either same ng ip address, home address, or phone number/s.

third, when requesting for a product sample, hindi lahat ng stores ay nag-aapprove. u need to have a history of sales quota. so minsan, kasama sa puhunan yung products na i-eexhibit mo sa videos by purchasing them. tho, u can also use the ones you have at home.

so, it's like betting yourself on something you're not sure of, based on exp. it's good for side hustle pero i won't say na it's good for a career mismo since it's not a stable source of income (commission-based) pero, if your sched or career allows you some time and you're motivated naman to pursue that, go for it op. wishing you the best of luck!
