Do I want to sell products
that are not in my inventory with ZERO overhead?
Do I want to earn additional
revenue?
Do I want
to expand my product offerings for this holiday season?
If you answered yes to
any of those questions, then setting up an Amazon Associates account is
the right step for you! And with WebStore by Amazon's integrated technology,
you can add thousands of Amazon products
to your store while presenting a seamless shopping experience to
your customers; all in just a couple of clicks.
One of the best parts is
that the Amazon.com catalog of products are fully integrated into your
catalog and the streamlined shopping cart allows your customers to proceed
to checkout without ever leaving your store.
All you need to do to start
taking advantage of this excellent feature and start earning referral
fees for the items that sell on your store is set up an Associate ID and
then enter that ID into the Store Settings of your WebStore. When you take advantage
of this program you can:
Make additional income
on commissions from products you don't inventory.
Increase product selection
on your storefront, providing your customers with a seamless shopping
experience.
Increase
customer retention by eliminating the need for the to look elsewhere to
buy the products you don’t sell.
How Do I Get an Associate ID?
Obtaining an Associate
ID is simple and free. Simply, visit the Join Associates for directions on how to set up your
account or visit the Associates sign up form to get started.
Once you have registered
successfully and received your Associate ID number you will be ready to
enter that into your WebStore settings.
How Do I Enter my Associate ID in WebStore?
This process is very simple
and following steps will walk you through this:
Find the option for "Earn
Associate Referral Fees".
Click Enter Associate
ID.
Now enter your
Associate ID, in the Associate
ID box.
Click Save.
That's all there is to it. Now you will receive commission on any Amazon.com
products that sell on your store.
How do I add Associate Products to my WebStore?
Now that you have subscribed to the Associates Program and entered your
ID into your WebStore account, you are ready to add products to your WebStore
that will earn you referral fees (commissions).
Associate Products can be added through the Category Manager, the same
way as you would assign your own products to your store. A separate tab
is available for you to view the Associate Products you have assigned
to your store. You will also notice that all Associate products will have
an icon next
to the product name.
