Greg Preece on YouTube monetisation with the ElevenLabs Affiliate Program

On his rapidly growing YouTube channel, Greg Preece explores AI, productivity, and the Creator Economy. His goal: help his +100,000 subscribers edit videos faster, reach more viewers and turn their content into income.

With a background in digital marketing and years of experience in YouTube monetisation, Greg quickly became one of ElevenLabs’ most successful affiliates. He’s developed a repeatable strategy that other creators can follow to maximise their earnings through the program.

YouTube monetisation starts with earning attention 

Building a profitable YouTube channel isn’t just about chasing views. The foundation of any monetisation strategy is creating value for an engaged audience — building trust and influencing purchasing decisions. This holds true whether you're earning through ads, affiliate programs, or selling your own products and services.

But producing high-quality content is time-consuming, and scaling a channel means publishing consistently. That’s where AI can make a real difference.

Incorporating AI into your creative workflows is a competitive advantage

Greg doesn’t just teach his viewers about AI. He uses tools extensively in his own content creation process, particularly during the scripting and editing phases. By doing so, he’s reduced his video production time by ten. 

ElevenLabs plays a key role in his post-production workflow. Instead of re-recording entire takes to fix minor audio mistakes, Greg uses Speech to Speech and his own voice, cloned, to make seamless corrections — saving hours and maintaining creative momentum.

Looking ahead, Greg is awaiting approval for YouTube’s multilingual feature. Combined with ElevenLabs’ automatic dubbing, this would allow him to expand into new markets and languages, reaching more viewers and unlocking additional ad revenue, all from the same content.

Affiliate Revenue as a scalable income stream

While YouTube ad revenue is part of Greg’s income, it’s far from the whole picture. He’s one of the top-performing affiliates in the ElevenLabs program, referring thousands of users each month. With a 22% commission on paid subscriptions, the program provides him with a stable, recurring revenue stream — one that grows steadily as referrals compound over time.

This is why affiliates thrive on YouTube: link placements are evergreen. Once added, they continue driving conversions month after month. Paired with a subscription model, that revenue compounds over time.

For creators like Greg, ElevenLabs affiliate program can turn helpful, high-value content into long-term income.

Greg’s Advice for Affiliate Success on YouTube

We asked Greg what makes affiliation work for him — and how other creators can follow a similar path. His tips:

• Choose programs with real demand. The product you promote should be trending or clearly useful. “If people are going to buy it anyway,” Greg says, “you may as well be the one to introduce it to them.”
• Look for recurring commissions or high-ticket products. Subscription-based tools are ideal because revenue builds over time. High-price items can also deliver strong returns, since commissions scale with the purchase value.
• Use the product yourself. First-hand experience matters. Greg’s deep knowledge of ElevenLabs — especially features like Speech to Speech and voice cloning — helps him create content that’s both authentic and high-converting.

Guiding Viewers Toward a Call to Action Increases Conversions

Like Alec Wilcock, another top-performing ElevenLabs’ affiliate, Greg emphasizes the importance of asking for the click. He places his affiliate link prominently in the video description, above the fold, and reminds viewers to sign up using his link.

This consistent call to action, paired with clear, practical content, drives reliable affiliate performance month after month.
