  Every deal is different, some are flat fees over time(an amp manufacturer paid one friend a few thousand to just have their amp in the background of every video for a year), some are paid demos for one off videos, a lot is affiliate marketing (they get a % from every sale they make from an affiliate link). Honestly it’s about relationships and numbers. It’s not a perfect science. E.g. My friend was able to say ”I brought this online store $450k worth of sales over 6 months so I want $X to do a video.” Also all three of them sell their own online courses on guitar playing and audio engineering and take comissions from one another to promote them on their channels. Out of every source of income the courses have been the highest ROI, but a lot more work then gear demos.
