The First Videos I'm Recording (On Purpose)
Safe products first so Amazon doesn't bounce the account. High-ticket next so the math can work.
The $30k emails skip the first month. Amazon wants to see that you can post videos without tripping policy. I want those first clips to be boring on purpose.
Batch one: approval-safe
A phone tripod. A clamp. A light. Things with no ingestible claims, no “this will change your life” script, and a model name you can read off the box. Film them the way Amazon expects. Get them live. Confirm the account isn’t in timeout.
This batch is not where the money is. It’s the cover charge.
Batch two: things I actually know
Outdoor power, tools, gear from real work. Higher ticket, smaller commission rate, still a real dollar if someone buys. That’s the filter. I will not publish a review page here until the exact model, the video, and a number I believe are in place. Gear stays empty until then.
How I’ll count
The homepage strip is the scoreboard: videos posted, products reviewed, earned to date, days in. I’ll update it by hand when a number moves. If you see zeros, that’s not a placeholder graphic. That’s the experiment on day one.

One email when something worth sharing lands: real numbers, real builds, no fluff. The list you own, not the algorithm.
