The Secret Amazon Merch Listing Hack That's Exploding My Sales (You Won't Believe How Easy It Is!)
About this video
A walkthrough of bulk-uploading Merch by Amazon listings with the Merch Informer Lister Chrome extension, framed as his listing ‘hack.’ Martinez creates saved profiles per color family — one for dark shirts and a duplicated one for light shirts, with adjacent hotkeys (B and N) to switch quickly — sets prices per product and marketplace, and enables Amazon’s auto-translation. His keyword strategy is to fill only brand and title (arguing Amazon ranks mainly on those at first, with bullet points and description potentially ranking later), putting one long-tail keyword in the brand and trying to fit two in the title, playing ‘Tetris’ with niche terms. Using a beer example researched in Merch Informer’s keyword finder (‘American craft beer,’ brewing, tasting, drinking, hops), he checks the phrase ‘I’m on a beer diet’ in TMhunt and Google, drags white- and black-font versions into Merch, and lets the Lister fill products, colors and cases. The Merch Informer trademark check catches a live ‘American craft’ mark before publishing. He notes he had 28 designs ready for the niche (uploading 2 on camera), warns alcohol designs on youth shirts cause rejections, says organic keyword traffic should come before ads (‘gasoline on the fire’), and mentions Productor/the Amazon search bar and ChatGPT/Ideogram for further research and ideas.
Key takeaways
- Use Merch Informer Lister profiles for dark- and light-shirt versions with hotkeys to bulk-upload many designs at once
- Focus keywords on brand and title only: one long-tail in the brand, up to two in the title
- Research keywords with Merch Informer keyword finder and watch for new design ideas while researching
- Run trademark checks (TMhunt / Merch Informer) before publishing — a live mark was caught in the demo — and never put alcohol designs on youth shirts
- Aim for organic sales from keywords first; treat ads as gasoline on an already-burning fire
