If you’re shy, private, or just not into showing your face online, that’s fine.
You want to do affiliate marketing, but you don’t want to show your face.
Good. You don’t need to.
If you think affiliate marketing means posting your selfie every day and begging people to click your link… you’re thinking it all wrong.
In this AI era, you can stay behind the scenes and still make the amount of money you need.
I’m going to show you how to build a faceless brand, use AI to handle the heavy lifting, and finally get results without feeling like a fake influencer.
Let’s go.
You’ll waste time if you’ve been thinking too much
Like
How do I get people to trust me if they can’t see me?
Or maybe:
Won’t I need to do a video or be on camera to get traffic?”
You’ll look at your camera, overthink, and keep pushing your goals to “next week.”
You’ll compare yourself to content creators who are all over social media — smiling, dancing, going viral — and you’ll start to believe that’s the only way to win.
But here’s the truth…
That hesitation? That’s your biggest enemy.
It’s what’s killing your progress before it even starts.
Listen to me.
You don’t need to be seen to be known.
Because it’s working right now as you are reading this
Creators are making six figures without ever showing their face.
- Dankoe.
- The Stoic Emperor.
- Even big-time YouTubers run faceless channels.
They were already putting in the work before AI. And now AI has flipped the game; it’s making it very easy. You don’t need a camera anymore.
You need a system. And how to think.
This post gives you that system. And if you follow it? You get results.
If you’re a shy guy or girl who’s tired of hiding but still doesn’t want to go public. This Is For You If…
- You’re camera-shy
- You’re a total beginner
- You’ve got zero budget but want to start something
- You value your privacy
- You want to build quietly but powerfully
If that’s you, then welcome. You’re in the right place.
And now you have that opportunity to start affiliate marketing without showing your face outside your territory.
Here’s How to Start Using AI to Stay Anonymous and Still Conquer the Game
Let’s look at it step by step. You don’t need to rush anymore. You gotta push each step into a working step.
Step 1: Build a Persona (Not a Face)
Pick a pen name, or pick a name
Pick something clean, sharp, and easy to remember.
Like how “Dankoe” built an empire without revealing his real name.
Make sure the name is free on Twitter, YouTube, Instagram, and as a domain.
This is your online mask now.
That name becomes your brand. Not your face. Not your voice. Just that name.
Need some inspiration apart from Dankoe, then here goes nothing…
- Orwell (real name: Eric Arthur Blair)
- Dr. Seuss (real name: Theodor Geisel)
- Richard Bachman (Stephen King’s alter ego)
They didn’t show their faces either. But their names became legends.
Check them on Google and you’ll find out you are alone, and you’ll be next.
Step 2: Define Your Voice (Because That’s Now Your Identity)
Your content style is your face.
If you ever read from these people, let me give a glimpse of how they sound.
- Dankoe is cold and strategic.
- Ed Latimore is raw and personal.
- The Stoic Emperor is mysterious and poetic.
Pick your lane and stay in it.
Because when people can’t see you, they need to feel you through your words.
Step 3: Set Up AI Tools to Create Everything
Let AI do the dirty work…
All you have to do is automate to function as your little automated robot.
- AI Avatar Videos: Tools like Synthesia or HeyGen
- Voiceovers: Text-to-speech apps like ElevenLabs or Descript
- Graphics & Posts: Canva + ChatGPT = full content calendar
- Ebooks & Lead Magnets: Use ChatGPT to draft, polish, and format
AI now creates voice, video, image, ads, and emails.
What can’t it do?
Nothing.
And if it can’t do it today, it’s learning how to do it by tomorrow.
Step 4: Create Nonstop Content (No Excuses)
Twitter/X threads
Quora answers
YouTube shorts
Medium blogs
Email newsletters
Pick ONE platform. Dominate it.
Write mini-essays, listicles, tutorials — whatever fits your niche.
Then push affiliate links naturally, like your life depends on it.
Dankoe did it with just X and ebooks.
You can do it too.
Step 5: Monetize Smartly (Without Selling Your Face)
Affiliate links?
Digital products?
Gumroad, Notion templates, private PDFs?
Use Stripe, PayPal, or even set up a privacy-friendly LLC if you want to go big.
No name. No face. Just income.
Common mistakes you observe people making that you should avoid.
Thinking that being anonymous means being lazy. It doesn’t.
Using low-quality avatars or robotic voices that sound dead is the biggest mistake.
- Posting once a week and expecting magic.
- Overcomplicating tools
- Trying to be on every platform
- Not defining your voice
- Depending 100% on AI (you still need to think)
When you begin to use AI or become too hide before the big stage. Don’t act like a robot. Use AI like a tool, not a life-dependent.
The thinking is still on you. The control i still in your hands.
Why most people fail when doing affiliate marketing without showing their face
Most people try to be everywhere: TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, Threads, Medium, all at once.
They burn out in a week.
Here’s how to not fail:
- Pick one platform. Master it.
- Build one funnel. Test it.
- Promote one offer. Focus.
The guy who wins is not the one who tries everything —
It’s the one who sticks to something long enough to win.
What builds trust?
Consistency. Value. Solving problems.
You can do all that without showing your skin.
