Merch By Amazon Reopening 2020 - How Do I Get Products Ranking Again?

About this video

The creator shares news that Merch by Amazon updated seller dashboards (his notice is dated May 1st) saying US products are being restored on an ASIN-by-ASIN basis as print centers implement health and safety measures, with delivery promises still longer than normal — one of his just-sold products showed a Thursday, May 14th delivery date. He explains the catalog returns slowly, product by product, and sellers can check progress by clicking their brand to see which designs are back. The creator reports 18 sales the previous day and 6 so far that day after a stretch of zeros, with two sales arriving live during recording. The main advice is how to regain ranking: because unsold products lose their Best Sellers Rank and slip from the front page to later pages, sellers should drive traffic again — either external traffic from a following on Pinterest, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, LinkedIn, or an email list, or Amazon ads (AMS). He shows his own AMS results from the previous day — the creator reports 7 orders, about $30 spent and $135 in sales — notes his breakeven ACOS is around 25–26% with a personal goal of 15–20%, and gives a quick campaign setup: Sponsored Products, automatic targeting, $5 daily budget, bids-down-only, and a starting bid of 20 cents. He had paused all his ads when the US store closed and has now re-enabled them.

Key takeaways

• Merch by Amazon was restoring US products one ASIN at a time; check your brand page to see which designs are live again
• Products that couldn’t sell lost Best Sellers Rank and page position, so ranking must be rebuilt with fresh traffic and sales
• Use external traffic (social media, email list) if you have it; otherwise AMS ads are the creator’s recommended route
• Know your breakeven ACOS (his is ~25–26%) and target below it (his goal 15–20%) so ads stay profitable
• Quick AMS restart setup: Sponsored Products, automatic campaign, $5/day budget, bids down only, 20-cent starting bid
