Merch By Amazon Designer SpreadSheet

About this video

The creator, working with Jeremy, explains a spreadsheet format he offers for outsourcing Merch by Amazon design work. The idea is that instead of briefing a designer repeatedly, you send them this one sheet, which contains the instructions, guidelines and information about designs that sell well, saving time when you outsource. He walks through how he uses it: he searches Amazon for a reference listing, copies its URL up to the ASIN, and pastes it into the sheet alongside a file name and notes. In the notes he puts the keyword research he has already done — the main keywords he wants targeted — so those keywords can later feed the listing title and brand name. When the designer finishes, they upload the completed design to Google Drive/the shared doc and the process repeats for the next design. He gives a live example searching for Halloween shirts and picking a Halloween pregnancy t-shirt, keeping the keywords simple. He says he charges $2 for the put-together spreadsheet.

Key takeaways

• Send an outsourced designer one standard spreadsheet with instructions and guidelines instead of briefing each design from scratch
• For each job, include the Amazon reference URL (up to the ASIN), a file name, and notes
• Do keyword research up front and put the main keywords in the notes so they can be reused in the title and brand
• Designer returns finished work by uploading it to Google Drive, creating a repeatable production loop
• Creator says he sells the ready-made designer spreadsheet for $2
