what's up everyone Carter here and I
just want to give you guys a really
beneficial breakdown of how exactly the
merge BAM some plot from works what are
all the steps to building a successful
and profitable more Amazon business I
know in my youtube channel I've posted
quite a few merch by Amazon videos just
showing a few steps here a few tips here
a few tricks here in this video I want
to put all of those tips and tricks
together and I'm gonna build a
step-by-step list that you can follow to
build your own merch of Amazon list so
let's quickly get into it I'll show you
each and every step we'll go in depth of
what exact each of those steps are how
you can run them as a complete begin and
with zero experience or a very limited
income and how you can quickly start
your own March bamas on business now so
let's get started
the first step is that you have to
request an invitation what I mean by
requesting an invitation is you have to
then complete an application to sent to
them it's like a little bit of
information a little bit of a background
about you so that hopefully you qualify
to sell on merch by Amazon this is very
very important this is the first step
you need to do and it takes some time it
could take anywhere from a few weeks to
a month two months it really does depend
on how quickly they're accepting people
but honestly I don't think there's
anything wrong with this I'm gonna show
you in the video how while you're
waiting for your application to get
accepted you can actually start doing
design research you can start getting
your designs created and get that
business up and ready to go so that when
you are accepted you can fill in all the
slots you have available with t-shirts
that will sell that do have demand so
you can start running and quickly
scaling your merch Amazon business but
that is the first step you do have to
request your invitation just go put that
information in your application set in
your office's step two step two and
that's your design research now you can
do this for a hundred percent free using
amazon.com not basically how this works
is you're gonna go through and just
search a key term that you think what
have demand so I'm gonna go - let's just
go cute hug t-shirt so whatever nice or
category you specifically want to sell
in that's where you want to do your
research so you can see
these are much bamas on t-shirts right
here this one this one this one this one
these are all merged Amazon sellers all
selling different designs you can see
there's all different price points some
have reviews now it's time to break down
how exactly you do product research for
emerge by Amazon so basically you're
wanting to go through and find t-shirts
that have you know somewhat of a you
know a decent price point something that
you can potentially compete with and
still make a nice profit on so usually
you want to stay anywhere from at least
$17.99 and above for the price points
and also I recommend as a beginner you
stay away from t-shirts that have
reviews if they have a review they
already have them they already give the
buyer another incentive to purchase
their t-shirt over here someone sees you
know a five-star review even if it's one
review it's still a really big
game-changer so you know bugzilla you
know you might want to stay away from
that you know this dabbing dog I think
I've seen it you know a couple different
times here's one right here 51 reviews
and it's gonna be very very difficult to
compete with that you'd have to be
working on your margins so if you see
something that's like here 1999 st.
Patrick's Day it's already past like
this one like this pug Imam 1899 a
really good price point let's scroll
down and you want to look at the sales
rank so the sales rank helps you
determine how well hopped and that
t-shirt sells on Amazon so a 1.2 million
sales like in clothing and it's not
really the best I usually like to stay
under a you know anywhere from a four to
five hundred thousand it sells my best
selling at least a couple of times per
month if not per week let's see cute pug
t-shirt so with the unicorn I here's a
cool one right here a little little
frock it building a little frock it
design 15.99 you see that has a decent
sales rank so you basically just want to
keep going through until you find a
sales rank that suze that you think has
demand and then basically you are gonna
either create the design yourself I'll
show you that in the next step or you
can outsource the design yourself but
something that's completely unique so
you just want to go through and
basically build up you know a list I
usually just copy and paste the link
into a Google Doc so that I can view it
later just to give myself you know a
better under
of what t-shirts were selling well you
know which ones had good sales ranks you
know which ones you know I think would
be good and here's when I hear perfect
example 339,000 you know Easter's coming
up at the time I'm making this video the
Easter puggy I mean that's just a very
simple design you can change the font
you can change where it was you changed
you get the Easter Pug or you could
change the colors or anything like that
you know it's another dabbing thing but
you just you know just make something
that's unique to your brand unique to
your designer you know create a better
title don't just keyword stuff like this
person's doing and you will be
successful that brings me to step 3 and
that you need to plan and create your
own unique design so for instance let's
say you find a t-shirt with a really
good price point $19.99 that leaves us
with a really really nice profit
there's no reviews on the listing and
honestly the the design can be improved
you know this isn't some amazing design
it can be improved and that's what you
need to do to be successful in March for
Amazon you know when this program first
came out I was one of the first people
into it everybody was doing this taking
the same design saying it's my designer
they're like changing one color or
they're changing one thing and then
they're saying the design back to me I
would take title I would take their
bullet points use the same colors the
same sizes boom put the listing up and
over time Amazon just got really
frustrated with copycats that's what
they were known as people who are really
copying other people's listings selling
you know their their t-shirt designs and
people are getting frustrated now my
amazon has really really come down on
that there's no more copycats if you
alright copycat and you're doing
anything of that nature your account
will be terminated so the reason I'm
here for step three is you need to find
something that's unique and honestly I
think that's another selling point if
you're able to find another way to
create a better design may be cooler
font better colors you know a better
title I'm gonna be able to index your
keywords better you can be able to rank
more for different search terms and
keywords just a lot that goes into it
but you don't want to be known as a
copycat that's gonna get your account
terminated suspended whatever you want
to create something that's unique
something that will be able to outsell
this competitor always
you can have a lower pricepoint so maybe
you create a better design you do better
colors you make a cooler design a better
font maybe go a dollar two dollars less
to start it out and you make a better
title in a better description I'm
telling you you'll be able to outsell
those t-shirts outside your competitors
and quickly rank and scale your own
merger Amazon business and the more
t-shirts that you sell the more slots
that you're eventually gonna have
available as you tear up from you know
ten to twenty five to one hundred and so
on step four now this is one of the most
important I think steps that comes into
the business because if it's all about
designs and creating the best unique
design because if you have a good design
and you have a pretty good title in the
description your t-shirts gonna sell and
it's gonna sell well doesn't matter
about the price point doesn't matter
about the key or doesn't matter about
your title if you have a good design
people are gonna want to purchase it so
creation or outsourcing is what I'm
gonna talk about in this step now this
is a very important step so let's just
say you're still waiting for your maybe
your account to get accepted you can
start working on this now start getting
ten twenty fifteen twenty-five designs
ready to go so that when your accounting
goes accepted you can get those designs
listed to keep testing and seeing which
ones are selling which ones art now
there's two different ways that the
design creation works the first one is
you create the designs yourself so if
you have experience with Photoshop you
and Dobey illustrator you know you're
good at graphic design and working on
you know graphic design type stuff good
for you go ahead and create the design
to save yourself some money get some
ideas create something really really
unique that you're proud of now
personally myself I'm not gonna graphic
design I'm I always outsource at and all
the businesses I run I cannot be
creative whatsoever but I can kind of
plan something that I want it to look
like and that's what I give I can
basically give feedback and give an
outline to my designers now I'm gonna
show you two different websites once
known as Fiverr ones known as upwork now
you can still get designs for a great
price so let's just go ahead and look up
you know something like t-shirt design
so Fiverr is gonna be more of a beginner
platform you're basically just going and
purchasing you know one-off gigs for
whatever you want so t-shirt design 3000
results now
on here you can get your designs created
anywhere from probably five three to
five dollars per design I know you can
find some in bulk like here's a bunch of
them for $5 t-shirt design um here's one
right here
$3 per t-shirt bulk design so four looks
like for $15 you can get five t-shirt
designs make $3 per design so just like
that you can spend a very very small
amount of income to have designs created
for you now you can have those designs
revised over and over and over and so
you think they're the best quality and
the best designs that you think so
there's quickly there's two ways right
there you can create the designs
yourself or you can have someone create
them or you know this is more and I've
advanced more of a I'd say definitely a
scaling type thing just up work now
there's different search term you can
look up t-shirt design graphic design
I'm pretty sure everybody will be able
to do the same thing but you just want a
unique t-shirt design that you can
download and then basically upload back
to emerge em so I'm t-shirt and create a
listing for so you can see they didn't
have different wages you can come in to
the filters you can go into you know my
bill want to job success if eighty
percent enough so that leaves it to 106
usually I like to stick on there you
know a ten dollar and below hourly rate
or you can go to ten to ten dollars to
thirty dollars but really it's all
negotiable and I can say you can getting
your t-shirt designs credit anymore from
my dollar to three dollars on this
website
I'm telling you find the correct artist
someone who's willing to spend the time
on it you give them the job outline you
can also post a job to giving a
description of everything you want
created you know you're gonna give out
you know X amount of design is this is
what you want I'm telling you when I was
doing a lot of people were interested in
it you know I was able to pay them you
know if they were able to do maybe
multiple t-shirts per hour and if
they're paying them a dollar or two
hours or three dollars per hour these
people were most of them are living you
know could be the Philippines or it
could be just you know somewhere outside
of the United States that's actually a
really really good money form and if
they're able to do multiple designs and
make you know a pretty nice income per
hour they're definitely gonna be willing
to do and they're definitely really
hardworking and focused as well a lot of
these people United staes acting it
Filters yells go ahead and search with
the new filters so yeah which maybe I
just want 10 to 30 but yeah there's tons
of grit workers on here and this is a
website for scaling like if you have
hundreds and hundreds of slots that you
need to fill and you want to fill them
as soon as possible this would be a
great site to start now obviously once
you have your design created you're
gonna have to go through and you're
gonna have to make a nice title for that
design you don't want to choose some
colors that fit your design well like
honestly looking at this purple like I
don't think it goes very well with that
designer that can personally just be me
you know I think maybe a white but that
text is white so you're not able to use
a white design you have work on your
description you know this does look like
a lot of keyword stuffing you know girls
boys baby a hunting egg hunts men shirt
Amazon doesn't really like that is known
as keyword stuffing and it really it
just it doesn't give off a very good
vibe you know someone that reads a
t-shirt this funny graphic dog lover tee
is it great for Easter you know that's
pretty good but then it starts like
listing stuff you know that I say this
second sentence is better than this
first sentence but basically just wanted
the index key words and words that would
you know help bring your listing up in
the search term so awful lookup cute pug
t-shirt maybe you're somewhere on the
first listing and then you start making
more shirts and now you're one of the
first results for cute pug t-shirts then
he can consistently start making sales
if that makes sense but obviously the
main thing is your design it starts here
so one doesn't like your design it
doesn't matter what your price is it
doesn't matter what colors have
available your title they're not gonna
purchase it so really focus on creating
the best most unique design that you can
the sixth and the final step I want to
talk about is managing in scaling your
merch Ramazan business because that's
ultimately what's gonna make you the
most money you know what strategies or
how exactly are you growing your
business you know are you consistently
rolling out new designs for old designs
that work selling well you know are you
always critiquing new designs that you
know are you always you know playing
with different price point search terms
you know keywords you always have to be
playing around with the business because
you're gonna start out small you're
gonna start out with maybe like a tier
of ten well you're gonna have to sell 10
t-shirts before you can move up to a
tier of 25 and then you can sell 25
t-shirts there you have to sell 25
before you can sell a hundred there's a
lot of different strategies that go into
that I know a lot of people that started
out and they didn't make any money for
the first ten t-shirts they sold which
is completely fine because Amazon still
doing all the fulfillment for you
so each t-shirt you sell they're
shipping it in creating the exact
t-shirt and shipping it to your
customers so if you sell ten t-shirts
and you don't make a dollar that's okay
because now you have 25 slots now you
have 15 more slots to put in four
t-shirts that can sell then you can
start increasing your price margins I've
seen people that start the t-shirts out
I like the bottom lowest price maybe
like 1199 where they like maybe break
and even or losing a couple cents or
$12.99
then they start making a couple sale to
start getting some traction and ranking
for their listing then they move it up a
couple more dollars so they're making
more profit really it's about building a
successful long term business you know
don't focus on making you know hundred
dollars your first day or you know
wanting to demand profits up front you
know you want to work on in tears you
want to have as many slots as you have
available you always have want to have
t-shirts selling selling selling so you
can just keep growing and running the
business anyways that's it for this
