Merch By Amazon: Sell Shirts on Amazon (no investment required)

[Nobu]

How It Works

1. Request an invitation
2. Wait for acceptance email (may take ~3 months)
3. Upload T-Shirt designs, set price
4. Orders are printed on demand and shipped by Amazon

What's so great about this?

1. You have access to the market of Amazon, the largest e-commerce site in America (don't have to be American to sign up)
2. You leverage the Amazon brand (Prime shipping, name recognition)
3. You never pay for membership or inventory. You literally just upload designs and collect your payment.

I just got accepted so I thought I'd let you get in on this. From what I've seen on Reddit, some are eating purely off picking the right niches and writing good descriptions without spending money on marketing like Facebook ads. Just purely organic Amazon search traffic. I'll update this thread with progress and tips. Feel free to ask questions.

What kind of background / experience did you mention in order to get approved, and how long did it take for you?

Literally just made up some BS about having done graphic/web design freelance. Took me about 3 months to get approved.

Just applied. Good looks.

Guess I need to brush up on my photoshop skills.

You mind PMing me what you put down?

I can't even remember what I wrote. It was like 3 sentences, I didn't really take it seriously. Just something along the lines of "I'd make a great Merch partner due to my experience developing websites. In my projects I had to develop graphic design skills that are transferable...."

I signed up a few days ago... wish yall nikkas said something sooner... I run 3 tshirt sites all with original designs, shipping through amazon would make my life so much easier.

not gonna lie i been doing Merch for a couple months now...i make my own designs and even hired my own designer from the Phillipines about a month ago to scale up. probably shouldve told yall sooner but it's easy money if you know how to do good niche and keyword research



google trends, google keyword tool, thesaurus.com and amazon search are your best friends if you do Merch

use merchinformer if you want all that in one but you gotta pay a monthly fee...it's only $9.99 which is cheap for what you get

Is there a minimum number of shirts per design you have to sell in order for the sale to actually be shipped? (Like teespring)
