FAQ
Can I make money with bulk orders?
Yes! Schools, child care centers, and community organizations can place large orders — sometimes after a reading, sometimes just from hearing about the book. You earn commission either way.
Can I make money from home?
Yes! Host virtual readings, promote your affiliate link, and earn commissions on book sales.
Charge around $50 per session, and collect payment directly via PayPal, Venmo, or Zelle — we recommend getting paid upfront. (You can also earn passively by sharing your link on YouTube or social media.)
*PRO TIP: use digital tools to enhance your readings — custom backgrounds, sound effects, or even AI animations. Make it magical.
Do I need inventory?
Nope! Zero cost to start. No purchases. No storage. We ship books directly to parents, teachers, or schools.
Where can I do this?
Anywhere in the world! Our storytelling method works globally — though for now, our books only ship to the U.S. and Canada.
I’m ready — can I get started?
Yes! Grab your affiliate code [https://jrstorytellers.tapfiliate.com], then go for it.
Get creative — email, call, or visit venues in person. Sell some books, earn your commission.
If you want to read at schools and be recognized as an official Jr. Storyteller, you’ll need to complete a background check (you’ll find that in your profile).
What is the Jr. Storyteller Methodology?
It’s our secret sauce — a mix of energy, interaction, and purpose. Our workshops and resources [coming to your inbox this June] will train Storytellers to do more than just read aloud. Our method combines:
- Dynamic engagement (think: voices, movement, questions)
- Emotional connection (every story has a heart)
- Real-world impact (kids learn lessons they’ll carry with them)
We use stories — especially our own original ones — to spark imagination, build confidence, and turn every reading into an unforgettable experience.
Will you publish my book?
We’re working on a program that blends human editors and illustrators with AI to lower the cost of producing books — making publishing more accessible for our Storytellers.
In the meantime, if you reach Master Storyteller level, we’ll develop and publish your book for FREE.
Note: Our illustrators are currently hard at work on three new book series —stories to help parents and kids grow up kind, strong, and smart in the modern world. We’ll be rolling out all 24 titles over the next 12 to 24 months.
Do you pay Storytellers $100/hr?
We don’t pay you — schools and venues do.
We give you free training, proven methods, and all the tools to help you earn that (and more).
For example: contact a school, let them know your rate is $100/hr, they can verify you are a Jr. Storyteller with us, schedule the storytelling, then go read to 8 classrooms in one day (30 minutes each), and they pay you $400 for four hours. And you keep 100% of it.
Do I have to sell books?
Nope. Your role is to inspire young minds.
But if you do share our books and people buy? You earn commissions — and unlock perks as you grow.
Do I have to use your books?
Nope again. But our stories + immersive storytelling method?
It’s a combo teachers rave about. That’s why we get invited back again and again.

You’ll never pay to participate, carry inventory, or unlock commissions.
We only make money when someone buys a book. That’s it.

If I’m getting paid, how does Jr. Storytellers make money?
Simple: book sales. We only earn when books are purchased through our site. We don’t take a cut of your storytelling gigs, and we never ask you to buy inventory. That’s how we keep it free and easy for you — with the focus on impact over profit. Want to level up?
We offer optional paid subscriptions with advanced training, promotional tools, and marketing support. It’s not our main focus — just a way to supercharge your journey if you want more.
