how to find a great product to sell get your business set up on Amazon and start generating
sales so here's some of the most important steps that you need to follow the first step is to set
up an Amazon merch on demand account if you don't have one already you can sign up for our account
here at merch.amazon.com and one of the most important things is to make sure that you fill
out all the information if you haven't signed up yet make sure you don't leave nothing blank okay
one of the most important things is Amazon wants to see that you have designed the experience they
would love to see you fill out that website part of the section where it says website and they
want to see your portfolio okay they're they want serious people to be on the platform once you set
up your account you need to set up the payment information and fill out everything that it asks
you okay it's going to take you through the whole process so make sure you do this correctly and
it's not easy to get accepted on Amazon merch on demand a lot of people messaging me to this very
day okay that they cannot get accepted okay when it comes to this type of stuff they're very weird
about letting certain people into the platform you have to apply and then once you get approved
it can take anywhere between three months two weeks a year okay me personally it took me about
three months to finally get my account approved I had before that I was doing Amazon FBA so I was
selling products on Amazon already but it took me three months to get approved for Amazon merch on
demand it seems like they take in consideration if you have if you have an Amazon FBA account
um this seems to be a plus for them because they see that you have knowledge of the platform once
you get approved congratulations that's a freaking awesome opportunity if you're not taking advantage
of that make sure you're doing so when I first started I uploaded a few designs and I didn't
take advantage of it for like a whole year and then I seen the opportunity of you know the power
of print on demand and learned about it and then I started turning it into a full-time income and
this is where I'm at right now what I recommend when you first start this credit a design okay
it can be a simple text-based design get it up and just get understand the process but you want
to learn how trademarks and copyrights work okay you cannot upload a Harry Potter design you cannot
upload a Coca-Cola you can't upload a NBA design you have to understand and learn you know what
type of designs you can upload onto the platform that's important and you want to watch this video
right here where I go into more detail about how to get accepted on Amazon merch on demand number
two is search the trending niches you want to find a good Niche that's trending to do this you
there's a few different freeways that you can obviously search for Trends you can use Google
Trends simply type in a few different interests like dogs cats sports like hobbies and stuff like
that like baseball football basketball okay now you just have to be careful with certain obviously
certain brands and certain teams you can't do like the Los Angeles Lakers unless you have the rights
to it okay so you can't can't create designs like that so you want to make sure that you understand
this as you're doing your research you'll see other people that are breaking the rules on the
platform don't be like them okay because they're not going to have their account very long just
because they're making sales against the rules making sales against the rules it's not okay to
do that you want to make sure that you understand what type of designs that you can create before
you upload them to the platform you can use the Amazon search bar okay typing in certain like
certain keywords into the search bar you'll see that there's a BSR a bestseller rank okay you're
going to see stuff like this on the platform where it's basically that shows you the demand
of a certain product and how it's selling one of the best tools that you can use is Merchant farmer
okay this is a pay tool they have a seven day free trial linked is going to be down below in the
description okay make sure you use my coupon code I get a little Kickback from that by the way but
there's there's some really awesome Tools in there that will help you do research but if you don't
want to do any use any paid tools at this time and point you can use Google Trends and the Amazon
search bar for free one of the things that I like to use is merchresearch.com I'll just go over to
merchresearch.com leave everything blank hit that search bar and then I'll come over to amazon.com
and then I'll filter it by the newest arrivals and then I'll look for a BSR I'll look for a BSR on on
new products uploaded to see if there's a demand for certain niches okay and you'll see some of
these designs will be uploaded within you know a day two days three days ago and they'll have
a cell okay and and you'll see like some of them will have a low BSR because you'll catch certain
Trends or certain sayings that are happening in the world with current events or political things
one of the big ones was you know like women's rights and stuff like that that recently just
just uh happened in the world right it's a big topic recently um and that whole Niche just went
crazy right and there was a ton of people that were making a lot of money with certain designs
which was crazy and if you're getting value out of this video make sure you guys give this video
a thumbs up please I really appreciate it and I have a question for you what is the biggest
challenge for you as an individual when it comes to Amazon merch on demand leave a comment down
below and I'll answer it for you design your own t-shirt artwork remember research is King the
design comes next so you want to make sure that you have your research down and understand you
know what your Target customer wants so designing your T-shirt If you're not a designer don't worry
okay it's okay I'm not a designer neither and I still crush it when it comes to Amazon merch
on demand there are several different tools out there that'll make it easier for you to
create a design and it looks professional and no one would ever even know there's canva.com
there's a merchant former Merchant form it has an awesome design tool on the back in and they have
illustrations that they released to every single month which is really really awesome and then if
you want to use like a like some type of design software tool there's [ __ ] okay that is a free
option okay that you can download when I first started making designs and stuff like that I try
to download [ __ ] in my computer it just crashed so the cool thing about canva and Merchant former
that those are web browse tools as long as you can open up Google Chrome or whatever internet browser
that you're using as long as you can open it up you can use those tools and remember it could be
a simple text-based design it doesn't have to be anything crazy once you created Your Design it's
time to upload next is setting up your listing on Amazon this is where your potential customer
will go learn more about your product and to decide whether if they want to buy it or not
so to create your listing you're going to need the brand the title the two bullet points and
description so you can see how important this is already now with the brand if you're not putting
everything under one brand what I recommend is to put one long tail keyword related to your
niche in the brand now it's important that you do your keyword research and I like to do my keyword
research personally when I'm doing research for the actual design or for that Niche number two is
the title I like to put two long tail keywords in the title because each long tail keyword is going
to bring me a search volume to my listing so we have one in the brand and then we have two more in
the title okay long tail keywords are basically two or more keywords together so funny dabbing
monkey that's three keywords together that's a long tail keyword okay so in the title I'll put
one long tail keyword and then another long tail keyword and it's like playing Tetris all right
you're going to try to have to fit these keywords into your listing to optimize it to get more
traffic to your product now bullet point one you can use two to three long tail keywords here okay
related to your Niche bullet point two you can use two to three long tail keywords here related
to your Niche now with a description you want to make it searchable for Google okay and this is
basically just putting long tail keywords how a customer would search on Google for a product or
you can copy bullet point one and bullet point two and put it in the description if you want
to save a little bit more time but when it comes to keywords you want to understand how important
this is because this is what's going to drive the cells to your product and it's going to help you
make more money do not skip this part okay and I know this is one of the like you know the last
Parts as far as you know optimizing everything getting everything going and getting your design
live but this is one of the most important parts to creating a successful business online your
keywords are important because they'll help potential customers find your listing when
they're searching for your product so when trying to find the right keywords for your listing just
think about how the customer would search to find your product that's one way now you have it all
done you have it all you know figured out with your keywords and stuff like that it's all pretty
next is pricing pricing low you're going to make more sales okay but you're not going to make no
profit but you're going to rank your product which is a good thing right when it comes to selling on
Amazon because once you start to rank your product it's pretty much set for life now it's up to you
when it comes to this I'm not going to tell you you should do this or you should do that I'd price
my shirts standard t-shirts at 19.99 so I can make a five dollar royalty um I know people that price
them to the market so if they're competition's at 699 or 17.99 that's what they price it at because
they want to be competitive with the pricing of their product right and it makes sense too
as well because that's what a customer looks for sometimes when they see a design they're like oh
this product is only 16.99 I'm going to save three dollars or four dollars right next is promoting
your T-shirt listing there are a number of ways to do this but one of the most effective ways is
promoting it through Amazon ads this allows you to pay for your product to be displayed in the
Amazon search results and other pages on Amazon and if you do not have access to Amazon ads yet
another great way is to promote through social media building a fan page on Tick Tock Facebook
Instagram okay and promote your designs this takes a little bit of work but it's all worth it at the
end if you just decide to not do Amazon merch and you want to create your own website like on
a Shopify or WordPress and promote your designs and your content to your audience or even if
you just want to do both right because you can promote to you know your social media audience
and then run Amazon ads it's a win-win situation and you're bringing in double the traffic to your
design which in return that means more sales next is you want to put a workflow in place for
yourself when it comes to this to stay on top of your performance of your designs if you're
growing your business you want to make sure that you're starting to tear up uploading designs
consistently holding yourself accountable and this is going to help you grow your business to
that level there where you want to be at okay this is very very crucial to maintaining a consistent
stream of income with Amazon merch on demand and then once you start to get there you know
obviously maintaining your ads and making sure that you're getting consistent sales and you're
in the profit all this stuff there's a lot that goes on after you start to make sales and make
money online you have to maintain it okay that is the hard part when it comes to any of this
creating a design is easy you know uploading it is easy but maintaining and making sure that you
have consistent sales on the platform is very hard once you start to make more and more money
you want to make sure that you're reinvesting it to help it grow even more you have to follow all
these steps this is not going to happen overnight it takes hard work consistency and patience so if
you want to learn how through my business to over two hundred thousand dollars in royalties
