Hello everyone, glad to be a part of this community. How are we all doing?

Amazon still hasn’t updated their affiliate links to open in the app. Baffling Here is my description on a longform YouTube video. (in the images) The amz link opens in browser The linktw.in opens to a challenge window to open the Amazon app. The Walmart link opens in the app natively because it was a tagged link. A Walmart Affiliate links opens in the browser.. still bad There’s a few unlocks here. Walmart products have less friction on YouTube for affiliate sales. We could match Creator Connections to Walmart products to double dip on affiliate commissions. This will be even more powerful for creators who have relationships with popular brands. One thing everyone should be doing is clipping their YouTube review videos. Especially if your product is matched to a Walmart product. If you don’t know how comment or if you don’t know what to clip comment and I’ll explain.

Jamie - before you launch anything new, please go back and correct / reimburse IPX Pro subscription cancellations. There are MANY people who have tried for months to cancel that subscription without success.

✅ TL;DR: We’re building a feature that helps creators consistently post videos that keep showing up in TikTok and YouTube search, instead of disappearing after one upload. That means more long-tail views, more qualified buyers, and more predictable commissions without chasing trends or owning the product. ****************** Read the Full Post if you're motivated ************************* 🔥 I want to keep everyone in the loop on what we’re actively working on behind the scenes at SV, and more importantly, why we’re building it. Most creators are told to chase: - trends, - sounds, - virality. That can work short term, but it’s unpredictable and exhausting. What we’re focusing on instead is something more durable. SV doesn’t make creators famous. It helps them be present wherever decisions repeat. Here’s what that means in practice. The problem we’re solving TikTok and YouTube aren’t just entertainment platforms anymore. They’re where people go to decide. People search simple things like: - “worth it” - “does this work” - “honest review” - “before you buy” But what they’re really looking for is clarity. Right now, creators are guessing: - what question to answer, - what angle to take, - whether a video will actually matter after a few days. That guesswork is what we want to remove. What SV is building We’re working on a new workflow that helps creators answer repeating buyer questions, not just chase trending posts. Using data we already have (trending products, Amazon matches, reviews, creator videos, transcripts), SV will recommend micro topics like: - who a product is actually for, - common misunderstandings, - why some buyers are disappointed, - what the listing doesn’t explain clearly, - what reviewers consistently agree on. These are not random ideas. They’re based on patterns buyers keep showing us. This applies to: - TikTok Shop, where search is becoming dominant, and - YouTube, where evergreen decision content compounds over time.
