Are you looking for a way to make money online without spending a dime? In this guide, I’ll show you how people are earning anywhere from hundreds to thousands of dollars using ChatGPT, shareasale, and Instagram—all for free. No website, no content creation, and no upfront investment required. Everything is virtually done for you!

Let’s break this strategy down step by step.

Step 1: Create a Free ChatGPT Account

Head over to ChatGPT and sign up for a free account. ChatGPT will be your ultimate assistant, helping you identify and promote products on shareasale efficiently.

Step 2: Explore shareasale 

Next, visit shareasale.Com, an incredible online marketplace offering unique gadgets, household items, and more. It’s a competitor to Amazon and features products for all niches. For example, I bought a video recording device for just $3 that works well.

Become a ShareASale Affiliate

Scroll down to the bottom of the website and click on Affiliate and Influencer Earn Commission.

• You’ll earn 5%-20% commissions on every sale, lead or click.
• Additionally, you can earn up to $85 per signup and even qualify for bonus incentives.

Here’s what you’ll get:

• Referral Bonuses: Customers you refer will receive a $50 referral bundle and free gifts.
• Affiliate Bonuses: As an affiliate, you can earn rewards like $33,000 bonuses on top of your commissions.

To get started, sign up by entering your email or linking your Facebook account. Once done, you’ll access a dashboard with your affiliate links and promotional tools.

Step 3: Use ChatGPT to Identify Winning Products

Ask ChatGPT to list top-performing gadgets on shareasale. For instance, you can request:

What are the top 15 shareasale gadgets worth buying in 2025?

ChatGPT will provide a list of trending items like:

• Smart desk lamps
• Wireless earbuds
• Portable power banks

Select a product to promote. For example, I chose a smart LED desk lamp. You can ask ChatGPT for links to these products or search for them directly on shareasale.

Step 4: Organize Your Affiliate Links

Once you have your product list:

1. Navigate to your shareasale dashboard.
2. Generate individual referral links for each product.
3. Save these links in a Google Doc for easy access.

For example, if you’re promoting the smart desk lamp:

• Search for the product on shareasale
• Click “get link” to generate your unique affiliate link.
• Copy and paste the link into your Google Doc.

Step 5: Create an Instagram Account

Instagram will be your main platform for promoting these products. Here’s how to set it up:

1. Create a New Account

Sign up on Instagram and choose a name that aligns with your niche. Use ChatGPT to generate creative Instagram names, such as:

• Shareasale Treasures
• Gadget Finds

I selected “shareasale Treasures” and created a fresh Instagram account.

2. Optimize Your Profile

• Add a profile picture (use a relevant product image).
• Write a bio with a call-to-action (CTA). For example:
  “Discover exclusive gadgets & deals! Click below for your $100 bonus!”
• Add your shareasale affiliate link to the bio (use your mobile device to update the link).

Step 6: Start Posting Content

Here’s how to fill your Instagram feed with engaging content:

1. Use shareasale Images and Videos

Shareasale offers high-quality product images and videos. Simply:

• Take screenshots or download images from shareasale.
• Use Canva to create stunning posts featuring these products.

2. Promote Your Links in Posts and Stories

• In product posts, include descriptions and your affiliate link in the caption.
• Add CTAs like: “Tap the link in bio to grab your $100 coupon bundle!”

Step 7: Leverage Short-Form Video Platforms

In addition to Instagram, promote your Teu affiliate links on:

• TikTok
• Facebook Reels
• YouTube Shorts

Short, engaging videos (7-10 seconds) showcasing trending products can drive massive traffic to your affiliate links.
