Amazon affiliate campaigns made easy!

Creating Amazon affiliate campaigns can drive significant sales and help grow your brand’s reach. With Upfluence’s attribution integration, you can manage every aspect of your Amazon affiliate campaign while maintaining control over the content and compensation offered to creators. This guide will walk you through the key steps to set up an Amazon affiliate campaign, duplicate a workflow, and track performance effectively.

Upfluence not only saves time but also delivers significant results. Our data shows that influencers who are existing customers are 7x more likely to work with your brand and are up to 52% cheaper for paid collaborations. These authentic partnerships drive the highest ROI for your influencer marketing efforts, making your campaigns both effective and cost-efficient.

In this guide, we’ll cover three major steps:

  1. Setting Up Your Amazon Affiliate Campaign
  2. Duplicating Campaigns and Creating Tracking Plans
  3. Tracking Performance and Managing Affiliate Sales

Let’s dive into how these features work and how they can take your influencer marketing to the next level!

Chapter 1: Setting Up Your Amazon Affiliate Campaign

To begin, you’ll need to integrate your e-commerce store with Upfluence. Even if your brand’s CMS is Shopify, you can still run Amazon affiliate campaigns by syncing your product catalog and compensating creators with products.

  • CMS Integration & Product Sync:

    • Upfluence allows you to sync your product catalog from Shopify, enabling creators to choose products as part of their compensation. This flexibility makes it easier to manage Amazon affiliate campaigns while still benefiting from Shopify’s seamless e-commerce tools.
  • Using Paid + Product Model:

    • Offering both paid compensation and product gifting to your affiliates tends to result in a higher application rate and more engaging content. This combination boosts conversions and helps generate authentic, creator-driven content for your Amazon store.
  • Creating and Sharing Campaign Brief:

    • You maintain control over the products offered, the brand messaging, and the affiliates invited. You can reward affiliates with a fixed or percentage-based commission, depending on their contribution to your campaign.

Setting up an Amazon affiliate campaign with Upfluence ensures seamless integration with Shopify and gives you control over affiliate compensation and campaign messaging.

Chapter 2: Duplicating Campaigns and Creating Tracking Plans

Once your affiliate campaign is ready, Upfluence allows you to duplicate an existing content-focused campaign and turn it into an Amazon affiliate program. This saves you time and effort by reusing a previous campaign structure.

  • Duplicating a Campaign:

    • You can easily duplicate a content-focused campaign in Upfluence and adapt it for Amazon affiliates. This involves updating the campaign brief and email templates while retaining the overall campaign workflow.
  • Creating a Tracking Plan:

    • In the campaign settings, create a new tracking plan to monitor your Amazon sales. You’ll need to input your Amazon store as the tracking provider and add the URL to direct customers. This plan will automatically generate unique affiliate links for tracking sales performance.
  • Syncing Products & Managing Shipping:

    • Although your goal is to drive sales through your Amazon store, you can still compensate influencers with products shipped directly from your Shopify store. Upfluence’s one-click shipping feature makes it easy to manage this process.

Duplicating campaigns and setting up tracking plans in Upfluence simplifies affiliate management and ensures accurate sales tracking.

Chapter 3: Tracking Performance and Managing Affiliate Sales

Once affiliates have posted their content and sales start trickling in, it’s time to track your campaign’s performance. Upfluence provides detailed insights into affiliate behavior and the overall success of your Amazon affiliate campaign.

  • Tracking Affiliate Performance:

    By navigating to the performance tab, you can track key metrics such as:

    • Clicks generated by each affiliate link
    • Page views and product add-to-carts
    • Total purchases and the sales value
    • Each affiliate’s conversion rate and the commission earned
  • Amazon-Specific Insights:

    • If your Amazon store is based in the US, you can also benefit from Amazon’s brand referral bonus. This bonus rewards you for directing customers to Amazon instead of your own store, giving you extra revenue on top of your affiliate sales.

Upfluence provides clear, detailed metrics that allow you to track each affiliate’s performance and calculate your return on investment.
