How To Generate 4 Income Streams From A Single Video.
Applicable for creators, artists and writers.
Video creators, our time is precious —so I’ll keep it short.
Most Creators aren’t aware of the revenue potential on social platforms.
And I’ve made it my mission to share the tools available.

In line with this, this is part 2.
Affiliate Programs
In addition to TikTok creator fund, here are three more ways to cash in.
Affiliate programs earn you an extra $$ on sales from featured products.
Amazon Associates is the most popular, but limited. And I like options.
If that’s your case too, I recommend using Sovrn or Impact. The registration process is quick and many brands are available (eg: Etsy, Adidas, Ticketmaster, etc…)
As a writer who doesn’t publish often, I get a few bucks here and there with Sovrn. Example
Brand collaboration
The most elaborate — and my favourite — monetisation setup.
Brands pay you to feature products in your video (or editorial). You can either wait for brands to approach you or directly pitch your ideas to them.
The goal? Your content acts as a promotional tool for the brand.
NB: Creators, negotiate wisely. It is common to charge $10 per 1,000 followers. Don’t forget to include your video production costs in the price.

How To Diversify Your Incomes As A Writer?
It works similarly for a writer.
If your audience is big enough:

Negotiate commission made on sales driven from your article, usually between 7–15%. Don’t forget to track everything.

Use affiliate tools to earn extra cash from the purchases you drive to brands.
+
Feature your services to drive new clients.
Take care.
