3 Tactics For Selling More Merch With Merch By Amazon | Amazon Merch T-Shirt Seller Beginners 2022
About this video
The creator shares three tactics for selling more on Merch by Amazon. First, chase profitable, trending niches by watching social media and marketplaces such as Amazon, Etsy, and Redbubble, spotting small rising motifs and combining them with holidays, then improving on rivals with better custom illustrations or being first with a funny text design. Second, build listings around trending keywords customers actually search for, using Amazon’s search bar, the AMZ Suggestion Expander, or Helium 10’s reverse ASIN tool Cerebro to find long-tail terms; he says a search phrase with no existing product can signal an untapped niche. Third, promote designs through Amazon Advertising once an account gains access — the creator says he has spent a large amount on it over the years and credits it with faster ranking — and through social media, especially Pinterest, TikTok (including paying influencers or posting niche content without showing your face), Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube. He also offers a free ebook on getting a first sale.
Key takeaways
- Research trends on Amazon and other marketplaces and combine rising motifs with holidays or niches before competitors do
- Use keyword tools and Amazon autocomplete to find the exact long-tail phrases buyers search for
- A searched phrase with no matching product is a signal to create the first design for that untapped demand
- Use Amazon Advertising, once eligible, to get early sales and help listings rank on the first page
- Drive outside traffic with Pinterest and TikTok, through niche content or influencer placements, rather than relying only on Amazon search
