There are many companies which offer a good amount of money for affiliate commissions like Amazon, snapdeal, booking.com, and many more. If done in the right manner, it can earn you as good as a 6 figure income on a monthly basis.

Always keep this in mind that it is always a healthy practice to add a disclosure about your affiliate links to your audience on social media handles. Again, do not annoy your social media communities with your affiliate links as this will irritate people. Make it a point to maintain a healthy ratio of informational, which are of interest to your viewers to the promotional ones (with your affiliate links).

 

How To Mint Dollars On Social Media Via Your Own Products

The second way to mint dollars is from your own products with digital and physical. I would recommend you to start selling your digital products first. Digital products like ebook, courses, webinars, etc. This is because digital products are easier to create and promote. Even the costing of a digital product is less when compared to the physical products. For example, you can list your ebook on Flipkart and then promote the link to your ebook on different social media platforms. Once the sale starts, all you have to do is count since it is a digital product. You can even sell the digital product multiple times, unlike the physical product.

 

 

Physical products, on the contrary, requires huge capital in the initial stages and one should go behind physical products only once the product idea is validated and have surplus capital to put in the development of physical products. Well, physical products like designer clothes, arts or other living products are comparatively easy to develop and sell them online.

 

Once you have decided on your product (digital or physical), you can easily sell it on different social media networking sites like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc or you also sell it through e-commerce websites like eBay, Flipkart, Amazon or any other e-commerce websites that allow such selling
