You explain things wayyyyyyy!!! easier than the big boys seriously!!. i have learned so much in only watching a few of your videos, clear and concise Love it.
Thank you so much for your encouragement and feedback! When I started print on demand, I devoured hours of content to help me improve and grow. I wanted to share everything I've learned and figured out over the last few years. My goal is to make this a place where people can come away with really actionable steps and advice to start implementing right away, but not make you watch an hour video to do that!
Thanks for sharing these tips, it helps me alot as I was stuck with these sections as a newbie. I did not realize it was not detrimental to repeat what was said in the bullet points and put them into the description.
I was granted a 10,000 tier account in merch by amazon because of my band's artist page. I decided in december I would give this a try and uploaded a desgins ever since but so far I have just sold one item in 6 months, but nothing else. I actually was ready to quit on this, but watching your videos I have decided to give it a few more tries! Thank you, very much!
I have not made any new designs for a while because life happens. I have had to take care of a sick mother and a husband. Now things are back to normal and I am wanting to start designing again. A while back I understood we could no longer use the word gift or shirt in the bullet points so I left that out of several shirts I designed because I did not want them to get rejected but you were adding them so I guess you can do that now. I just found your channel and I am finding your information helpful so thank you for making these videos. Even though I have not added anything in a while I love I am still making money each month.
I’m so sorry life has been so challenging lately! Sending lots of love your way and hope things are getting better each day. Regarding the word “gift” I never include it in title and brand, but I have had no problems using it in the bullets. Wishing you all the best as you get back into designing!
Hi Hannah, Thank you so much for all of your advice. I have been binge watching your episodes all day. I have one question. I tried to use my Design Title in my Brand field and received the message----To optimize this listing, try to avoid using your brand as your design title.------- I imagine this is something new. Do you have a different suggestion for the Brand field? So appreciative of your teachings. Thank you!
Thank you for your content - it gives me new hope. Sometimes I look at my design and think it's not good but maybe it's my descriptions that actually need the work - thank you!
Ha! I should've watched THIS video first! :) Thanks, this really broke down the response to my questions about "brand" ... you have answered all my ELI5 questions and I'm feeling much more confident about growing my teeny tiny Tier 10 merch account. Fingers crossed that I tier up past Tier 25 and Tier 100 before Valentine's Day! Thank you, Hannah! 🙏😍
So glad you are finding some of my videos helpful! It means so much to me! And congrats on joining Merch, sometimes just getting an account is the hardest step for people. Wishing you all the best in getting out of those first two tiers, it really does start getting easier from there! Happy Holidays and cheers to a New Year!
@@hannahebeling Thanks, Hannah! I'm looking forward to at least getting into tier 100 by the end of January! I'm just inhaling all your content plus anything else I can find about Merch right now, putting together a plan and a daily schedule: research, research, research, make a simple design, share, promote, rinse and repeat. 😂
This is my first time enjoying your TH-cam channel. Great content! Looking forward to hearing more from you! Your video was so informative. Thank you so much!
I notice you use the word gift in your example. I thought you and others said not to? You also mentioned that the title and bullet points were most important. How do you know cuz I have heard from other that say its the title and brand that's most important.? Also could you explain how to add more products not designs to a listing if your only in the lower tier that only allows 2 a day.
Hey Hannah if one of my designs is reading Auto -uploaded, does that mean iv made a sale?, i think iv just sold my first Halloween T-shirt from 2 years ago go me!! LOL i even had cute sarcastic ghost spelt wrong, i spelt it sarkastic LOL should I now edit that correctly or leave as is?
I think previously Amazon was only auto-uploading designs that had sold, but I have been seeing that some newer designs without sales have started getting auto uploading too, so it’s hard to say.
Hey Hannah, thanks a lot for the great stuff! Really helpful for us - newbies. Just one question. In this video, you use the title "Funny Oncology Nurse Squad - for Oncology Nurse Life Rocks". 60 characters is not a lot, indeed; isn't it a waste of precious space to repeat the "Oncology Nurse"? I would think that the Amazon bot grabs the keywords the first time. Thank you again (for the answer ;-))
Hi Hannah! I'm currently bingeing your content and have a question. For the Brand, it makes SO much sense to protect your collection by not using a single brand identifying name. How many would you recommend using your IG account name for, as you mentioned doing for early visibility in another video? Thanks!
This is a great questions and honestly a tricky balance. If you are only doing it to get out of tier 10, you can simply just post your 10 designs and move on after that. If you want to create more of a "brand" and continue to sell to this following then you will just have to be fine putting everything out there. I have done this and haven't had too many problems since people are coming to buy my items through instagram.
Hi Hannah…..such great info in your vids. I just watched this a second time. I tried putting the word “Gift” in my bullet points……however it said “not advisable to use this word” ….Im afraid to use it ….I don’t want to get banned from MBA……also the words shirt or sweatshirt I’d discouraged ….any advice or thought ?
@@hannahebeling omg Hannah thanks for responding back, you’re so kind. I watch several of your videos now, and I must say I am enamored with that information. I think I will try to put the word gift into one of my bullet points to see if everything works out OK. You’re the expert, and I do appreciate your help. Happy holidays, Steve .
Hi Hannah, I’m that real rule follower that can be really annoying for me 😂 I’m stressing over trademark warnings I’m getting from Productor.. I have the word’Ball’ on one of my designs.. I want to also sell to the UK market.. some dimwit in Denmark AND in the US has trademarked that word on shirts. Huh? Seriously, I can’t use the word Ball? Can this be right? Also, how serious should I be taking trademark warnings for my keywords and descriptions?
@@hannahebeling Thank GAWD!! It’s been freaking me out. Worked so hard to get this account; just don’t want to lose it. I’m sure I’ll calm down at some point 😂
Yo Hannah. Great tips here! I just subscribed. I've got a few beautiful designs on merch collecting dust. Will be utilizing these strategies tomorrow. Maybe we could collaborate on projects down the road. Cool channel for folks just getting started
It’s all fun and games until one of those popular phrases (that are stuffed in your bullets) gets hit with a trademark notice and your account takes a hit. Just ask anyones whose been doing this for years.
You always have to check every phrase and design in a trademark checker. Designs get rejected for copyright or prohibited content. I have several other videos that cover this in more detail.

Hi Hannah Can I put the word gift in the bullet points or is that against amazon policy and thanks for the video.
Thanks for sharing 😉 I accidentally saw this video but it's pretty good video for beginner like me.
So glad you found it helpful!
Thank you so much for all your helpful videos!!!
Glad you like them!
Happy to find this channel ,thank you for the tips
You are so welcome! So glad you’re finding it helpful! Happy holidays!

Oww Thank you very much, you helped me a lot😍🥰i am really grateful !🥰❤💖
I'm so glad!
I will have to try these
Perfect - Thanks Hannah

Thank you for your advises! How many product photos do you include in your listings?
On Etsy, typically I will have one really nice mock-up from placeit and then have the auto generated ones for each of the colors available.

Totally fine to not use! It’s always better to be cautious. Also, don’t use the word shirt or sweater!
@@hannahebeling omg Hannah thanks for responding back, you’re so kind. I watch several of your videos now, and I must say I am enamored with that information.

You're doing what nobody else does.
You’re too kind!
Copyright words can I use in bullet points ?
This could lead to your product being taken down, so best to stay away.
you mentioned Amazon does not allow the use of words like (gifts) but I see you added them! little confusing
Is this applicable on other sites as well?
Yes! I follow a very similar method on Etsy as well. But, you don't have to be as careful to not say words like "shirt" and "gift" on Etsy.
Hi Hannah, I’m that real rule follower that can be really annoying for me 😂 I’m stressing over trademark warnings I’m getting from Productor.. I have the word’Ball’ on one of my designs.. I want to also sell to the UK market.. some dimwit in Denmark AND in the US has trademarked that word on shirts. Huh? Seriously, I can’t use the word Ball? Can this be right?
Also, how serious should I be taking trademark warnings for my keywords and descriptions?
A lot of times, common words that are trademarked won't get you in trouble if they are used in context. I wouldn't be too worried about Ball.
@@hannahebeling Thanks so much, Hannah
@@hannahebeling Thank GAWD!! It’s been freaking me out. Worked so hard to get this account; just don’t want to lose it. I’m sure I’ll calm down at some point 😂
If I cannot register Etsy in my country, can I use my friend's identity to open a shop, but have the money go to my PayPal account?
This may get tricky with taxes because it would seem like your friend is making extra income.
I think we should check if these popular phrases are trademarked before we use them
Absolutely! Check anything you use every time!
thanks
Thank you very much!~
You’re so welcome! Thank you so much for watching!
Yo Hannah. Great tips here! I just subscribed. I've got a few beautiful designs on merch collecting dust. Will be utilizing these strategies tomorrow. Maybe we could collaborate on projects down the road. Cool channel for folks just getting started
Thank you! So glad you found this helpful!! Hope you can revive some of those older listings!
So don't use gift or use it multiple times?
Great question! Don't use gift in your Title because Amazon has said not to, but I always use in my bullet points.
Thank you ... so very very much!
@@tracimoney-honey8545 Glad you found the video helpful! I really appreciate the comment and support!
@@hannahebeling yes I just used these tips in an upload ... I will keep you updated.
@@tracimoney-honey8545 Best of luck!!
"Gift" in Feature bullet is Banned ?
It is technically, but I don’t think they enforce.
Nice Content⚡
Thanks so much! It means a lot to a new channel!
@@hannahebeling Continue, this is purposeful content, I really like working in the field POD
@@SmartShopperGuide10 Thank you so much! And best of luck to you in your POD business!
@@hannahebeling Thanks Hannah ,I also wish you success in this Field🙏
how about a review generator?
I haven’t used any type of review generator, but I believe that would be against the terms of most POD sites, so just be wary of that.
Developer and coding is the trick to ecommerce.
It’s all fun and games until one of those popular phrases (that are stuffed in your bullets) gets hit with a trademark notice and your account takes a hit. Just ask anyones whose been doing this for years.
Definitely a good idea to check phrases you’ve been using even for years, when you upload new products.
Used all of these and my tshirt got rejected. So dont know if this is actually what makes you rank in sales. Just disappointed.
You always have to check every phrase and design in a trademark checker. Designs get rejected for copyright or prohibited content. I have several other videos that cover this in more detail.
ChatGPT FTW.
Hey Hannah, love your content! I've emailed you about a potential collaboration-let's create something amazing together!
Thank you verry much .
Thanks for watching!
