So they finally released the new commission rates and there is no denying that this is sad. I personally tend to have a lot of content in the outdoor lawn and garden and pets section so slightly less affected than a lot of the other categories. But I mean this is over 50% decrease in a majority of categories and inevitably absolutely will have an impact on people's commissions.
Now I don't think this is the end of the influencer program, but I do think that this further confirms the need to branch out. I think that this is a clear indication that we really do need to make sure that we are getting our videos onto YouTube, if nothing else so that we have more leverage so that we can get the free products for the Creator connection campaigns because they are suddenly just shy of essential.
So up until now YouTube has been a secondary thought. A nice bonus if you will, but I but think it would be wise for all of us to move it up in our priority list. We won't know the full impact of this for probably at least a month or so until we have a little bit more data to analyze, but it will inevitably hit the on-site program relatively hard.
Just wanting to provide full transparency as always, of course, none of this is within my control. We are all at the mercy of Amazon's decisions and all that we can do is take what we know and make the most informed decisions that we can moving forward.
I'm curious how everyone's commissions have been in the last month since they got rid of Halo sales? Have you noticed a big drop? I personally have definitely had some exceptionally low days but overall at the end of the month for March, things came together fairly well. I still hit my four figures. April has been toying with my emotions lol had a few incredibly low days and almost a week with no Creator connections but then the last 4 days have been feeling more normal. So I guess we will see what the rest of April brings.
How are you guys feeling about these changes?
