How to make $109.32 on Amazon with 20 minutes of work

Before you get too excited about a way to make easy money, sometimes having close friends know what you do and support you just makes you smile.

I've never been big into Amazon, but one day a few years ago my friend told me he had just bought $4500 worth of computer equipment for his office on Amazon. I was furious. I could have got a slice of that pie if he had just used my affiliate link!

So, same friend posts on Facebook a few weeks ago that he needs to buy an expensive camera. I tell him to tell me before he does.

One week later, he is ready to buy and asks me for my Amazon affiliate link. Easiest $109.32 commission I ever made!

I know, it's not really repeatable but it just shows you, sometimes you are rewarded for what you do in the most unexpected ways.

Best part? He's buying more expensive equipment later on this summer and I will get another nice and easy commission payment.

So, don't pay attention to the naysayers, and it may not be a great idea to tell everyone what you're doing as they will only want you to fail. But if you have a few close friends who will actually support you, which I do, it can reward you in unexpected ways sometimes!

    By the way, I probably spent even less than 10 minutes on it, really. Talked with him on the phone about it for a bit and send him the link, that was it.

    Now if you just toss up some nice Amazon product related sites you could repeat your success without knowing the consumer(s) heh. But that was very kind of him to hook you up, though i'm sure he'll want something in return.

      Actually, he's one of my closest friends in the world, and no, he doesn't really want anything in return. It's not really that much money if you think about it, it was just nice as it was "easy" money.

    There are affiliate marketers out there and they don't even know it. When i got my mortgage i got referred to my mortgage adviser by a friend and guess what he got a referral fee =]
