Amazon puts YOU in the sales position.

Social media is no longer just a means of connecting friends through the internet, it has expanded into so much more now to include sales. It’s no suprise that companies have caught on to the great potential of utlitzing these networks to sell products. One company I found using a unique method of refferal selling is Amazon. They not only use Twitter to get sales, but now they also have Amazon users doing the selling for them. Through the new feature from Amazon Associates called “Share Through Twitter” the Amazon user posts a link to their Twitter account, and if the link is clicked and item purchased, the user gets refferal rewards. Amazon is putter their customers in the drivers seat and creating a win win situation for both parties, a smart and somewhat controversial move. Anyone can take advantage of this simple way to gain a little extra money and here’s how.
