Merch By Amazon Monthly Income Report For 2020 (How Much Can You Make On Merch By Amazon)

About this video

RJ walks through his Merch by Amazon backend as his 2020 income report, presenting all figures as his own account results. He claims all-time sales of over 59,000 products and about $185,000 in royalties, with standard t-shirts dominating (about 53,000 products), followed by hoodies, sweatshirts and other products; he says he sold his first throw pillow that day and prices most shirts at $19.99. For 2020 he claims about 18,000 products sold and roughly $68,000 in royalties, overwhelmingly from the US marketplace with small amounts from the UK, Germany, France, Italy, Spain and Japan. He says he spent about $22,700 on AMS ads in 2020, leaving about $44,860 after ad spend, with a lifetime ACOS around 19% against a break-even around 25-26%, and describes a mid-2020 dip when Amazon shut down and throttled listings. His method, he says, is doubling down on niches shown in the data, outsourcing designs and illustrations rather than designing himself, inverting white designs to black for white shirts, using top-selling designs’ backend data to create more designs in the same niche, and pushing AMS bids harder in 2021 instead of leaving money on the table. His stated 2021 goals are over $100,000 in US royalties and over $12,000 for the year in each other marketplace.

Key takeaways

  • Creator claims 2020: ~18,000 products sold, ~$68,000 royalties, ~$22,700 AMS spend, ~$44,860 left after ads.
  • Standard t-shirts are the overwhelming driver; he prices at $19.99 and focuses spend and new designs on proven niches.
  • He outsources design/illustration and expands winning niches with related designs so customers buy multiple shirts.
  • He targets ACOS below 20% (break-even ~25-26% by his account) and plans to scale bids on low-ACOS winners to rank #1-2.
