[02:41] promo codes. Ok? So you promote them in your videos, in your blogging content or sometimes even by running ads or you promote those links on your website. And when people click on those links and complete the purchase or the
[02:57] purchase is completed using your promo code, then you get commission for it. Now let's talk about some affiliate marketing companies or platforms. So the first and most popular one is diggi store 24. Ok? So diggi store 24 is an affiliate

[04:39] affiliate links which I get from Amazon, I put them in the description box and when you do your shopping from it or complete it, then I will get commission for that. Even if I make a purchase of Rs 2 lakh including camera and mic from Lets, then
[04:56] approximately Rs 4000, will be credited to my account. Ok? You will get its complete dashboard. There are many more which you can see here. And not just this, but if you sell Prime Video subscription etc.,
