Dealing with black friday at Amazon
(Image: Black friday super sale)
Last year at this time, I had no traffic and had no youtube channel.
This year, I have 5-10 clicks a day on my mini pc channel and averaging 200-300 views a day on my YT channel. So I decided to take amazon up on their offer.
They gave me three mini pcs that were going on sale. So I quickly generated blog posts for each then created a video for each. Posted the all last night with the non-black friday links.
then at midnight, I did two things. First, I changed the links to the black friday links. Second, I created a small ($10) promotion for each on YouTube. I have spend $2.80 so far and got 65 views from this. Overall I have almost 150 views on these three videos.
Then I went on Amazon today and noticed another mini pc I had written about a few days ago (and had a video) is also on sale. So I quickly created a promotion for it. Same thing. $10.
This is an experiment. If I sell 3 of each I will break even. So it's not a huge risk.
Will see tonight if I sold any...

Looks like you are making great progress, Michael. Good job! Hopefully, sales will be there tomorrow.
I am making sales almost every day now. On one extreme it's been soap and stuff. On the other extreme there was a $900 pc that I didn't advertise. That's the "problem" with Amazon
