I don't make any sells on twitter, but i think because i don't have much followers. Can you tell me please your experience selling on twitter and how get lot followers?
I have so far success with Twitter, but I have more than 3000 followers until now. Everything is automated with Twollow and Tweetlater. You can also try to list your Twitter-Account at Twellow. Tom
Pick a product, use the search function on Twitter, search the name of the product (and variations of the name), find someone thinking about buying it, cloak your Amazon link with something like Bit.ly, tell them you found the cheapest price, give them your link... repeat. Do that with the bestselling/hottest products (data that Amazon gives you for free) and you win. Screw the "I need 41276231 followers" game. P.S. Make sure all your tweets aren't about helping people find the cheapest prices for whatever product they're interested in. That's a little too suspicious.
Thank you very much, I did sell my first product yesterday on twitter, i use my script for send reply. it wasn't lot money but I'm happy that i sell something after long times
Read my post here.... http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=1588703&page=2 It's a start. I have about 15,000 followers right now. http://www.twitter.com/yourockradio You will get small increments of hits at one time. Some topics yield better than others. It takes time to get followers unless your name is Oprah or whatever. What cracks me up the most is the Twitter app gurus who have 39 followers. Always good for a laugh! And Amazon? I have had zero conversions from that thing. It's a loser. The question is... "Why would I buy from YOU from Amazon - When I can buy from Amazon all by myself?" That is the issue; I think.
How effective is this? Do you think you can easily sell this? but well very nice tip...I experience in the real world of selling
IMO it's very difficult to get conversion from Twitter than a general website even though you have a lot of followers. the problem is that people won't click the Amazon affiliate links from Twitter.
Twitter works quite well for me ie a hundred or so bucks a month (in fact it's the only thing that does work for me regarding Amazon). I do have around 10K followers though. Regarding the links - it's best to open about it, only post genuinely good offers and not to saturate them.
i just get an ID of twitter, i am now work hard for a huge follower. it's so hard. i learned from here, thanks.

money from twitter is really hard job, i rather get natural serp traffic, in this way it`s more stable
I personally think Amazon links on Twitter are close to being unwanted advertising, which people shun. Unless that link is actually a piece of news or something useful to the audience.
so bad, how can we ever take advantage of twitter as an effective marketing medium with very high conversion rate...check my blog for the best tips i gathered from the web and of course my tips also
The problem is not from Twitter traffic, rather it's with the way Amazon's cookie works. May get thousands of traffic from Twitter but if none of then order any product within 24 hours, then you don't get any referral fees. Don't rely on Amazon alone for monetizing your Twitter - spread your wings and run other affiliate programmes. Good luck
well twitter does work well if you have followers who are really "following" you and not using some script to be added..
Twitter is a great tool but I don't use it to try to sell via my direct Amazon link. Treat twitter like you would any other marketing genre instead of saying "buy this here" with your affiliate link try a different type of message, "new info regarding product XXX found here" details at "your money site" or other variations. As far as Badboyzstudioz comment about why would they buy form me instead of going to Amazon directly; that is both true and false. If your money site is set up correctly, then the transition to Amazon is almost invisible until they are on the amazon page have been cookied. then it doesn't matter what they buy that session, you get the commission. It is my opinion that too many affiliates try to open a "store" and while some are doing very well, most do not so you need a different approach. get them to your blog (or website) give them information that is helpful in making the buying decision and then give them the opportunity to buy. Just like any other affiliate program. Damon
