Earning with video reviews: A PIMN model's tip to monthly commissions
Understanding the Potential of Video Reviews
Video reviews have become a powerful tool in today's digital landscape, offering models a unique opportunity to earn significant monthly commissions.
As consumers increasingly rely on visual content to make purchasing decisions, models can leverage their influence and reach by creating engaging and authentic video reviews.
With platforms like YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok, models can promote Pimn modeling network in a way that resonates with their audience.
These platforms not only provide a space for creativity but also offer monetization opportunities through ad revenue, affiliate marketing, and sponsored content.
Keeping in mind, profits of memberships are split with pimn that you sponsor for training but product brand modeling is always only 10% to Pimn. The rest is to the model.
You get 90% off any product promotions. Higher cost product reviews of say a purse that costs $1000 could bring you $200 commission for a ten minute video review. IF....you get buyers. Being sure to ad your code given for commissions from client / co. On sales.
Getting Started with Video Reviews
The first step in earning with video reviews is selecting the right products to feature. Models should focus on products that align with their personal brand and interests.
Authenticity is key; audiences can easily detect when a review is insincere or forced. By choosing products they genuinely love, models can create content that feels natural and trustworthy.
Once the products are chosen, it's essential to plan the content strategy. ☆Products aren't typically chosen by models but rather, models are contacted then referred to Pimn for confirmation.
☆Having a photographer into your home is not required or recommended as a Pimn model for a number of reasons.
☆I'll go into this later WHY this can hinder you. Image represents a model and brother helping her set up her home studio.
☆Trust nobody but family and close, long term friends only. I'll go into WHY in an upcoming post. How models have ran into issues with accepting modeling photography offers. Even free shoots.
☆Pro photographers can at times tend to impose negative or pushy opinions if they don't know how Pimn trains models or our standards that only Pimn uses. We are not based off fashion industry standards.
☆We are not interested in their trying to interject negative opinions upon Pimn. So, if you get that, it's up to the model to stop it in its place.
☆They are free to offer any positive tips to help you...but not to criticize you or Pimn standards.
☆Then pimn reconnects model to discuss the offer. Then model determines if she is interested with her manager. Not with the client.
Pimn model managers are always the negotiator. NOT YOU.
☆Makes you look far more professional too the less involved you are with focus on modeling.
This includes deciding on the type of videos to produce, such as unboxings, demonstrations, or detailed reviews. Consistency in posting schedules can help build a loyal audience.
Monetization Strategies
There are several ways models can earn money through video reviews:
- Ad Revenue: Platforms like YouTube offer ad revenue sharing for channels that meet certain criteria.
- Affiliate Marketing: By partnering with brands, models can earn a commission on sales generated through their unique affiliate links.
- Sponsored Content: Collaborating with brands for paid promotions is another lucrative option.
- Smiling and being friendly goes a lot further than no smile and a dry review. PERSONALITY in modeling is AS IMPORTANT as IMAGE.☆
- Speaking clearly and not too slow to put people to sleep but not too fast they can't understand you either.☆
- Keep it a steady flow and energetic all the way through. Smiling will bring more interest than no friendliness at all. ☆
Building an Engaged Audience
☆Your following won't happen over night unless you already have a following. Pimn is fairly new to promoting online.
☆Over the years, we have been a more private ( personal training ) less public type of model training. Only since 2024 has Pimn been pushing for more public viewing and posts.
To maximize earnings, models must focus on building an engaged audience. This involves creating high-quality content that resonates with viewers. ☆Whether doing a Pimn model training review or a client product review.
Engaging thumbnails, compelling titles, and clear calls to action can significantly boost viewership and interaction.
Engagement doesn't stop at video creation. Models should actively interact with their audience through comments, social media, and live sessions is possible but not required.
☆For a Pimn model training review, women only are your target audience. And depending on brand or product reviewed, promoted, men or women are your target audience. But typically, Pimn models are modeling other women's products.
☆A call to action can simply be something like, just add "Im interested!" In comments or DM to me. I'll get you the link! Make them make the effort to comment. This helps open a door to communicating to them.
Building a community around their promoted content fosters loyalty and encourages repeat viewership.
Leveraging Analytics for Growth
Analytics tools provided by platforms like YouTube and Instagram offer invaluable insights into audience behavior.
By understanding which types of content perform best, models can tailor their future videos to better align with audience preferences.
Metrics such as watch time, click-through rates, and audience demographics can help in refining content strategies.
This data-driven approach not only improves video performance but also enhances earning potential.
Your video reviews should always be reviewed by Pimn trainer to critique it first and yes, it may take some practice. Every video review you do, you'll get more and more comfortable doing such.
Having proper lighting and sound is essential as well as no background noises such as dogs barking, pet birds chirping that can annoy viewers, trains or sirens, people talking in background, chewing gum is a no go when doing any video review or product modeling.
