    I've been stuck in tier 10 for ten months! I sold over ten shirts my first 30 days with eight of those being organic sales. One of my designs has organic sales every month and my sales are picking up each month. The past few months I've sold ten+ shirts each month. All my items are priced at the lowest possible price point to try and bump up my rank in the search and yet, I'm still stuck in tier 10! I hear of sellers that claim to have bought ten of their own shirts at once and were bumped up within thirty days. Ugh! It's so frustrating!
    I have more designs I want to upload, but can't because I'm stuck in tier 10. I've thought about deleting a design that only has two sales so I can upload a new design, but I don't want to delete a design that has organic sales and a 5 star video review. However, even though it has a 5 star review, it hasn't sold anymore since March. I just want to get out of tier 10 already! Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. 🙏

    • @PhilipAnders
      @PhilipAnders  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Well done for doing so well in tier 10! That's some really good statistics for only having 10 designs. Unfortunately Amazon is not very transparent when it comes to tier ups. They say it doesn't always solely depend on your amount of sales, but don't give individual reasons. I have definitely heard of a lot more people this year who have been tiered up really slowly, way past hitting their sales target, so potentially amazon is just limiting access to higher tiers due to less server capacity or what not. But I would definitely not delete a design with a video review, that's really rare. Try contacting the merch support team and explaining you have been eligible for a tier up since earlier this year + all of your designs have sold organically. Most likely they will give you a template response, but I feel like sometimes that can help put you on their radar.

    Being an American watching you try to make sense of American football and bizarre American cultural references certainly adds an extra entertainment value to these videos.
    But don't feel bad, I'm sure most Americans wouldn't understand political jokes referencing veiled letterboxes. (The Jewish space laser thing was a joke in response to a similar comment made by one of our more out-there conservative politicians.)

    Thanks, this was a great video with very helpful advice that I haven't seen in other places. Looking forward to revamping my listings a bit to hopefully get out of tier 10 soon! One question... when do you bump up the price of your shirts, and what price point do you usually go with? I'm OK with pricing at 13.07 and going without royalties until I tier up, but obviously at some point I'll have to start earning a bit off of my listings.

    • @PhilipAnders
      @PhilipAnders  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I hope the tips and revamping your listings helps! I have a lot of upload slots so I upload shirts at all sorts of different price points. But usually once it's sold once at a low price, I will bring the price up slowly until it gets to 17.99-19.99
