Prompts of the Day

Your Prompt of the Day! This was my question today… Amazon Prime Days are July 8th through the 11th this year. I am already an affiliate, but I need your guidance with how to make the most of what and how I will promote items on Amazon during this time and beyond in order to earn the most affiliate commission possible. This was the response…

Fantastic — Prime Days are a golden opportunity for affiliates like you to boost commissions and grow your influence. Here’s a step-by-step plan to help you make the most of Amazon Prime Days (July 8–11, 2025) and continue earning well beyond.

NOTE: Prime Days on Amazon are July 8th through the 11th. Shop the early deals now at https://ConnieLoves.me/PrimeDay
And consider an Audible account. I’ve had mine for over a decade now at https://ConnieLoves.me/Audible
* Become an affiliate for Amazon, if you aren’t already and earn some extra income through the next couple of weeks and beyond!

Your Amazon Prime Days Affiliate Strategy (2025)

Step One: Pick the Right Products to Promote

Focus on:

  • High-demand, high-discount items (check Amazon’s Prime Day preview pages)

  • Products related to your niche/audience (ex: tech for entrepreneurs, home office tools, books on productivity)

  • Recurring purchase items (like printer ink, supplements, planners, etc.)

  • Amazon devices (Echo, Fire Stick, Kindle) — they often have deep discounts and convert well

Pro Tip: Use the Amazon “Today’s Deals” and “Upcoming Deals” pages to plan what to promote each of the four days.

Step Two: Create Curated Lists & Gift Guides

Make themed collections your audience will love:

“Best Prime Day Deals for Entrepreneurs”

“Top Tools I Use in My Business (Now on Sale!)”

“Books to Grow Your Mindset – Prime Day Edition”

(Here are two of my Amazon lists that sell all year long):

Writers Tools and Resources

Yoga at Home

Formats to use:

  • Blog post

  • Email newsletter

  • Carousel post or Reel

  • PDF download or bonus

Tip: Use your Amazon Idea Lists to organize and share easily. You can get affiliate credit with your list links too!

Step Three: Prep Your Content Ahead of Time

Prime Days move fast. Have content ready to go:

Blog post: “Top Prime Day Deals for [your audience]”

3–5 social media posts with trending hashtags

Email(s): “My Top Prime Day Picks – Updated Daily!”

Bonus content: “Buy through my link and get this free checklist/template/mini-course”

Make use of short urgency-based headlines:

  • “Best Prime Day Deals – Only 48 Hours Left!”
  • “I Found the Perfect Deal for Writers (Under $50!)”

Step Four: Email Your List (With a Personal Touch)

Send 1–2 emails a day during Prime Days with:

  • A personal recommendation
  • Direct affiliate links
  • Urgency language (“expires tonight,” “while supplies last”)

Structure:

Subject Line: “Prime Day Deals I’d Actually Buy (and You Should Too!)”

Hook: Why these items are relevant

CTA (Call to Action): “Click here to see my top 3 picks for today.”

Step Five: Go Live or Post Daily Updates

  • Daily short-form content = more clicks. Ideas:
  • Facebook Live: “Unboxing the Best Prime Deals”
  • Instagram Stories: Polls (“Should I buy this for my biz?”), swipe-ups
  • TikTok: “3 Amazon Deals Every Online Entrepreneur Needs”

Include your affiliate link in the first comment or bio.

Step Six: Offer a Bonus for Using Your Link

This boosts conversions and builds goodwill.

Examples:

  • “Buy anything through my link and get a free mini course!”

  • “Send me your receipt and I’ll send you my productivity planner.”

Keep it simple — PDFs and templates work great.

Step Seven: Track What Works

After Prime Days:

  • Use Amazon affiliate reports to see what sold best.

  • Identify which links performed and which content drove clicks.

  • Note trends to reuse in future promotions.

Beyond Prime Day: Keep Earning Year-Round

Use the momentum to:

  • Build evergreen gift guides (holidays, birthdays, productivity bundles)

  • Create monthly “Best of Amazon” roundups

  • Add affiliate links to existing blog posts and YouTube videos

  • Share your Amazon storefront regularly

Your Prompt of the Day! This is the question I asked ChatGPT , in advance of the holiday next week in the States:
“I’ll be away for several days next week to celebrate the Independence Day holiday. How can I plan now to make sure my online business will continue without me being there in person?”
This is the shortened version of the reply I received within 10 seconds…
That’s a great question, and smart thinking ahead! Here’s a quick action plan to keep your online business running smoothly while you’re away for the Independence Day holiday:
1) Let your audience know in advance via email, social media, or a quick blog post by setting expectations. Frame it positively: you’re modeling time freedom and self-care!
Example: “I’ll be offline for a few days to celebrate the holiday. My systems are still working behind the scenes, and I’ll be back [insert return date] with fresh ideas!
2) Batch and pre-schedule the content that normally drives traffic or engagement:
* Emails – Schedule value-packed emails (or promos if applicable).
* Blog Posts – Pre-write and schedule your weekly blog post.
* Social Media – Use tools like Buffer, Metricool, or Meta Business Suite to schedule posts in advance.
3) Automate Sales and Delivery Systems – Make sure these are working without manual input:
* Email autoresponders: Welcome series, lead magnets, and follow-ups should all be active.
* Checkout & product delivery: Test your payment and delivery systems. Can someone buy a product and receive it without you?
* Affiliate links: If you’re promoting something time-sensitive, make sure links and timers are in place.
4) Set up an autoresponder or away message for customer support or email inquiries. Example:
“Thanks for reaching out! I’m currently offline for the holiday and will respond after [date]. In the meantime, check out [link to FAQ or blog/resource page].”
5) Prepare for Re-Entry
* Block off a “catch-up buffer day” when you return.
* Note any promotions, launches, or content drops for the week after.
* Consider planning a re-engagement email like: “Here’s what I learned over the holiday—and how it can help you…”
* If you use a VA or AI assistant, empower them with scripts, FAQs, or templated responses for common questions.

Your Prompt of the Day! This is what I asked ChatGPT this morning… “I’ve built my online business by creating simple, digital products to sell online, and encourage newer online entrepreneurs to do the same. Please create a simple, step by step strategy I may share with my followers so they can do this quickly and easily.” This was the response:
** The Simple Digital Product Strategy (For Newer Entrepreneurs) Overview: Create a simple product, set up a basic sales system, and start making sales — all in 7 easy steps.
Step One: Choose a Profitable Problem to Solve
Goal: Focus on a small, specific issue your audience wants solved.
* Think about what your audience is struggling with.
* Use your own knowledge or experience.
* Example: “How to create your first lead magnet,” or “10 social media prompts for small business owners.”
Quick Tip: If you’re not sure, ask your audience or check Facebook groups, Reddit, or YouTube comments.
Step Two: Decide on a Simple Digital Product Format
Goal: Choose something you can create quickly with tools you already know. Options include:
* PDF guide or checklist
* Swipe file or template
* Mini-course (short video or audio lessons)
* Notion or Google Sheet planners
* Canva templates
Quick Tip: Start with what feels easiest for you to complete in a few hours or a weekend
Step Three: Create the Product (Keep It Simple!)
Goal: Deliver a clear result in a short amount of time.
* Use tools like Google Docs, Canva, Loom, or Notion.
* Focus on value, not length.
* Use a clean, simple design — you don’t need to be fancy!
Time Frame: Aim to finish your first product in 1–3 days.
Step Four: Package and Brand It
Goal: Make it visually appealing and on-brand.
* Create a simple cover in Canva.
* Add a short introduction and clear instructions.
* Use your brand colors and fonts if you have them.
Pro Tip: A polished cover makes your product look more professional and worth paying for.
Step Five: Set Up a Simple Sales Page
Goal: Use a basic landing page builder to sell your product.
Tools:
ThriveCart – https://ConnieLoves.me/thrivecart – or PayPal (easy to use for beginners)
AWeber – ConnieLoves.me/AweberFree or ConvertKit – https://ConnieLoves.me/ARConvertKit free (for email delivery)
Sales page elements:
* Headline = the result they’ll get
* 3–5 bullet benefits
* Quick intro + a mockup of the product
* Buy button
Example: “Get 50 Blog Post Ideas for Your Online Business – Just $9”
Step Six: Connect Email Delivery or Access
Goal: Automatically deliver the product when someone buys.
* Upload your product PDF or link.
* Set up an email automation to thank them and give access.
* Use Google Drive, Dropbox, or a private page for access.
Step 7: Share and Sell It!
Goal: Drive traffic to your sales page. Ways to share:
* Post on your blog or website
* Share on social media
* Mention in your emails
* Create a “soft launch” with your followers or list
* Use short form video (Reels, TikToks) with a clear CTA
Bonus Tip: Add the product link to your email signature and social bios.
Final Encouragement:
* You don’t need to be a tech expert, designer, or marketer.
* Start simple, help someone solve a real problem, and put your product out there.
* Then, create another one!
