Stop Trading Your Time For Money! Scale Your Merch Business

August 8, 2017 Merch Informer Amazon 12 comments

I recently got back from a conference in sunny California talking to people about Merch by Amazon and how (in my opinion and many others), it is the best online opportunity to make extra money or simply replace your day job. So many of the people I talked to where trying to figure out what designs worked best, the best way to get their products in front of customers, how to market, how to use keywords, and the list went on and on. MOST people I know in this business are not designers themselves but are still trying to learn how to design and get things to sell. The day started off talking about “being good”. The simply fact is […]

The Ultimate Merch by Amazon Career/Hobby List

July 20, 2017 Merch Informer Amazon, Merch Holidays 19 comments

When doing your research to decide on what designs you should do next, most people get really hung up on the same niches time and time again. This eventually leads to a LOT of competition with everyone competing for the same top slots doing the SAME niche shirts. Sound familiar? If not, check out the amount of “Nurse” shirts, or “dog” shirts out there. Do not get me wrong, you can make very good money in these niches. You know what is MUCH better though? Making designs for professions and hobbies that no one else is targeting. I love doing career shirts because they sell well and are evergreen. The secret is just creating designs for professions which are either […]

From talking to people all over the world about Merch by Amazon, there seems to be a few common themes.

Keyword Optimization Merch by Amazon Case Study

May 31, 2017 Merch Informer Amazon, Case Study 33 comments

Do you use keywords in your Merch by Amazon shirt titles? Maybe you only use your keywords in the bullet points. Perhaps you have tried to add the keyword to the brand name as well, but are not really sure why. You could have heard any number of people tell you where and how to include the keywords you want to rank for in your listings. If you have followed Merch Informer, we went over our strategy in the 20k a month case study where we lay out a little on how we do our keywords. This has very clearly worked for us, but everyone has their specific way of doing it. Not only that, everyone will swear that their […]

Ultimate AMS (Amazon Marketing Services) Guide to Marketing Your Merch

May 16, 2017 Merch Informer Amazon, Paid Traffic 221 comments

[toc] When Merch by Amazon began, the program was targeted at app developers. Once the news was out about this program that would allow you to sell products on Amazon and produce a royalty without dealing with customers or inventory, people absolutely flooded the Merch by Amazon signup page, and they became invite only. Since then competition has grown and so have the amount of people selling merch through MBA. Some people say it has gotten harder to sell shirts, some think it is still easy as ever. The one thing that everyone has been missing though is the ability to run ads to their Merch by Amazon shirts if they were not app developers. There was no option to […]

Growth Hacking Pinterest To Sell Amazon Merch

May 8, 2017 Merch Informer Amazon, Free Merch Marketing 23 comments

How many times have you seen someone mention or felt that you were just not getting any sales through Merch by Amazon leaving frustrated even though they were all posted on social media? Social media can be one of the biggest opportunities for selling your Merch if you do it correctly. The fact is though, that simply posting your shirts to social media is not going to work unless you put in the leg work first. Posting your shirt on your personal Facebook account is not going to get much traction as none of your friends are specifically targeted. Tweeting about your design to the 1200 followers you got by doing a giveaway is NOT going to turn into more […]

Merch Pricing Strategies – Why You Are Leaving Money On The Table

April 24, 2017 Merch Informer Amazon 5 comments

Since we started Merch Informer, we have seen almost every pricing strategy in the book. This is something that most people will probably never agree completely on, and thus, has been the topic of hot debate in the past. Should you price high to be seen as the premium option? You WILL make the most royalty per shirt this way, that is for sure. Should you price right in the middle of the pack of designs and try to compete less on price, but more on unique, amazing designs? Or, do you throw all of that out the window and attempt to make only a few cents per shirt sale and price at the bottom of the barrel in the […]

How To Run Facebook Ads To Merch by Amazon Listings

April 17, 2017 Merch Informer Amazon, Paid Traffic 82 comments

How many of you just landed on this guide and have already tried running paid advertising to your merch listings? Out of all the people that have, I bet the vast majority of you ran paid advertising using Facebook ads and reported back that they were expensive and a waste of time. I have been there! Being involved in the affiliate marketing community over the last few years before I got involved in Merch by Amazon and print on demand, I burned 10’s of thousands of dollars on Facebook without making all of that money back. I certainly do not claim to be a FB ads expert but all of that ad spend did teach me a few things that […]
