Best video of the year, thank you for being so honest and for your tips!
You! Are! Awesome! Thanks for this tutorial. I've been looking for a side hustle that I could enjoy at the same time. My background is in design so I think you've just helped me find the side hustle I've been looking for.
Are you selling your services on Fiverr? Please do!
Excellent job, calm, collective and clear explanation
Thanks for sharing in detail how you were able to find so much success! Great work and looking forward to more videos!
Congrats on numbers. Merch by Amazon is amazing. It’s only just getting started!
I've seen many videos but nobody explained it so easily and clearly like you did. Thanks!
Oh yay I’m happy to hear it! 😄
@@SharonTseung terimakasih❤️
@@SharonTseung Hi, I truly thank you for this video. I'd like to know if one must have Photoshop or Adobe Illustrator to download the templates on MBA. What do you feel about #4, in the Collab Contract? Thanks
@@SharonTseung my GOD you are GORGEOUS 😍
hi can i sell t-shirts when i just got to amazon? Or will there be an approval process before that?
so i'm talking about the confirmation of my account
thank you sharon, you teaching honestly and warmly.
Love the attention to DETIAL Max! Keep up the great work!
excellent job explaining the business. Thank you I am excited to get started.
I appreciate this sooooooo much! Your amazing for going so indepth with this. This makes me so excited to try it ☺️
Yay! Excited for you!
did you begin? im curious as well. good luck!
@@llBUZZll1 Not yet. It's on my to-do list. I'm an Entrepreneur and it's the next thing on my list. Altho It seems like I need to create a shop in Teespring first and then apply for Amazon Merch. 🤔
Send your email *address* to companies and get paid!! ua-cam.com/video/AraE_7X0FDg/v-deo.html

I hope your profit doubles this year. For taking the time to share clear and detail instructions on how to use merch by Amazon. Thank you
this vid is priceless, thankyou so much. not many people wanna share things like this
Great video! Thanks for all your detailed tips and tricks 😊
Thank you! I'm happy you liked it! :D
Oh my gosh, this is amazing! I've been looking for a way to get my art out there and make money, this is gonna be the perfect way! I have fortunately been given great opportunities to study Art and Design in school and college and now I have a way to sell it and it doesn't require me to buy frames, canvases or know how to use photoshop. It's a big deal coz I've been struggling for the past 4-5 years wondering how to move forward. I have Fibromyalgia, CFS (Chronic Fatigue Syndrome) and other things, so it's not easy for me to just simply apply for a job coz it often involves moving about and it hurts plus the fatigue doesn't help. This is perfect!
Thank you for explaining this so clearly..and showing how to do things on the computer.. I'm not very tech savvy so this video helped alot.. Thanks a bunch
I learned a lot! I am really inspired right now really wanted start asap! Thanks a ton Sharon
I was getting frustrated coz I don't know how to start this. But I'm glad, I found your video. Thanks a lot.
No problem! 😄
Thank you for this awesome video, so much valueble info. I feel so ready and excited to start ❤️⚡⚡
Thanks girl!! I can’t wait to get started! 🎉
Thank you so much for your tutorial, I'm forever grateful. This video motivated me to start my own MBA journey, and thanks to you I'm pulling a full side income through POD. One things I'd like to add to your video, is that instead of manual search you can use a tool like Podly to find exactly what's selling right now, it helped me a lot!
Thank you for the awesome content! You’re detailed and clear. You’ve inspired me to start this passive income journey!!
That’s awesome to hear! Excited for your journey :)

Very detailed tutorial on how to get started on Merch by Amazon! My son is a graphics designer college student right now, and he uses what he learns in a very creative way. I told him about Merch by Amazon, and he is interested in making some passive income while finishing his degree. Your tutorial covered a lot of the gray areas that I was concerned about, and it's good to know the process behind it all. Thanks so much for making this tutorial Sharon! You got a sub! 😁👍
tell your son to get on Fiverr thats where all my graphic designer friends make tones of money while in uni
Thank you 😊
Love this! Thank you for creating this video👍
Great tips Sharon. I appreciate YOU!
❤️!!
This is really interesting!! 🤩Thank you so much for sharing 🙏🏼👏…. Just one quick question, will this allow also for non-US citizen? It caught my attention when you were showing how to fill-out info (i.e. Social Security #, tax #. etc) in signing-up…
Shirt returns: always keep a reserve for when your shirt gets returned. The highest returns are from holiday/special event shirts. They will sell, but also the highest return.
Thank you, is it still worth doing in 2023?
You explained things so clearly which made it easy to follow. I will actually try to do this now. Thank You
Awesome!
Thank you Sharon, simple and informative !👍
My trading journey was a matriculation of highs and lows, literally just like the market. you up, you down. Now I'm constantly up.
Hello, I'm new to Bitcoin trade and I've been making huge losses but recently i see a lot of people earning from it Please can someone tell me what to do?
The new digital gold has created a new trillion-dollar's opportunity around the world! Where do you think your country is headed for
All you need is a professional trader to avoid making losses
That is true, you need an expert broker and account manager to make good profit from Bitcoin trade.
Trading on your own is very risky, many people have lost a lot trading for themselves
love the honesty!!!
More power to you sharon.
More videos like this! Great content
Thank you! Will try my best!
Thank you Sharon. great video
I have a question: what do you think about starting by buying a ready-made Merch account and subscribing with Vexels for ready made designs?
Does this sound good?
Thanks
Perfect, very helpful and thanks for sharing this great topic.
Thank you for all of your help! ❤️
I just recently started making a profit on Etsy with some of my designs, and I have been interested in learning more about Merch by Amazon.
Hey bro how can i reach u? Im starting to think of doing this as well
Thanks for your detailed video Sharon. I am going to give this a try. I have notebooks and journals on KDP, but they are not really selling. Any tips? Hopefully this will take off since I design my cover for the notebooks on Canva too!
I've wondered about this, too. I have different ideas for activity books and planners.
KDP is all about keywords and an awesome book cover.. try for less competitive keyword and with midjourney your can try creating awesome covers
Very informative video thanks. I have t shirt ideas all the time. Might have to give this a try. Thank you!
Thank you! What a lot of really good information! I applied to Amazon Merch today, let's see how quickly I can get going on this.
Great! Thanks for sharing
Thank you!
Thank you so much. I learned a lot. Do you have to put ads in order to sell? How can you boost your sells?
No ads are required to sell. Once you reach a certain point in Selling, an Advertising option will appear on your Merch account
Your explanation is on another level! You've made me interested in Merch by Amazon..let me give it a shot...will post by results here
Hey Sharon I love watching your videos.. It is also a great idea to start my own business. thank you for sharing I will look into this and see how it goes!
*thanks for your comment.... For more proper guidelines and mentorship. Leave a msg 👆🔝....*
Ty!
1-what about shirt returns $
2-what about protecting your artwork from being copied?
3-how do you make sure you don't accidentally come too close to copying someone else's artwork?
Asking the real questions here!
I am willing to bet she will never answer this because Amazon wants you to have 0 rights over your original work, and for the next 2 decades after that.
Hi Sharon! Thanks for that - really helpful.
Can you only do this with tees? I’m thinking of hats, hoodies, shoes for example.
Or is it that merch Amazon only allows yo to sell shirts?
The system has other merch to select for your graphic besides wearables...phone cases, tote bags, pillows and pop sockets
Hi Sharon, this is a clear tutorial. I love this Idea.
Thank you so much for the knowledge. I do it right away ! :)
This was really helpful! Thank you so much for walking through the process!
Do we need to, or how do we copyright or establish our own unique designs so they are not ripped off? Do you have any advice for that? Additionally, can you still print/sell/offer your designs somewhere else if they are listed on Amazon?
Also, what happens if someone returns for a refund? Have you experienced much claw-back due to refunds/exchanges?
*I'm just editing my comment to add thoughts or questions as I watch.*
Wouldn't you want to market the "I love my dad" shirt to kids, siblings, & cousins to help the celebrate their dads, or something like that?
I know children, hopefully, aren't going to be online with a parents cc, per se, but dads aren't going to wear this for themselves, I'm thinking. Maybe I'm not understanding correctly about how to list the key words, etc. I'm sincerely seeking clarity, not trying to offend.
Thoughts?
Have you ever ordered your own design just to have the shirt? Do you have to pay full price or is there any discount?
How do you submit a design that is customizable?
Very Valid Question. I hope she answers.
Guys, these comments are all fake. Please do not waste your time
You can print and sell your designs elsewhere. You can apply online on uspto.gov to trademark but I haven’t done it before. When people refund Amazon handles it (and you wouldn’t receive those royalties)
Hi Sharon
Thank you for not being greedy with knowledge 🙏 Also can you talk about how to file taxes on all of your passive income? How you go about it. Also what type of entity to go under Ie: LLC, S-corp etc
good question,i didnt think about that
You get a yearly report paper from Amazon, similar to a W2 or 1099, that you can file with your taxes.
❤️🏆🇮🇩
You’ll get a 1099 from Amazon!
Thank you so much for sharing! You're such a blessing to me. May God bless you 1000x more than you are right now!!!
Great explaination a year later. I'm using your information/video to guide me through starting my own Merch channel. Thankyou for sharing.
Amazing video! Just have a question… if I confirm that one of my own taglines doesn’t have a trademark issue, can I trademark my tagline? If so, is there an easier way? Thank you so much for all the great content. ❤️🙏🏽
*thanks for your comment.... For more proper guidelines and mentorship. Leave a msg 👆🔝....*
If you want to trademark I believe you can apply on uspto.gov!
@@SharonTseung thanks for your reply 🙏🏽

I just loved your detailed video for Merch by Amazon. Truly speaking, i gain a bunch of knowledge from your video. I owe you very much for this. I'll start my Merch by Amazon very soon. Wish me good luck!
Thank you! You got this!
Thanks for the great video! One question, you mentioned that it’s best to check patterns on USPTO. But what if I’m using non-US Amazon account (i.e. UK, Japan, etc)? Do I still have to check with USPTO or my country’s respected patent office?
You need to check the trademarks for the country you are selling in, not the country you originate in. So yes, check TESS USPTO when you are uploading to the US market.
You can use these resources to check for registered trademarks.
United States : USPTO
United Kingdom : UKIPO, EUIPO, TMDN
Germany : DPMA, EUIPO, TMDN
France : EUIPO, TMDN
Italy : EUIPO, TMDN
Spain : EUIPO, TMDN
Japan : J-Plat Pat, TMDN
Great Video. Very thorough. I appreciate that you walked us through the entire process. Question: I noticed that you have 583 designs published yet you are in tier 10,000. Were you able to skip some tiers? Did you skip from tier 500 to tier 10,000?
The tier levels go by the amount of shirts you’ve sold. So she’s tier 10,000 because she’s sold that many shirts
I think, once you sell 500 items it moves you up to tier 10,000. From there, if you sell over 10,000 then you move on up to the next level. So the tier number is actually your goal before you can move up to the next. I'm stuck at tier 100, myself (since I sold over 25 items from tier 25 and moved up). If I sell 60 something more shirts then I move up to tier 500. I hope that helps.
@@odetomy Yes. I see. I knew that. I must’ve been still asleep early one morning when I typed that!!🤦🏽♀️
THIS HELPED A LOT! I can't wait to start my own design business. :D I hope you reach 1M subs!
This was a tremendous help. I need more videos like this
Awesome video! Thank you for explaining this process and sharing your experience with it. This sounds like a good source of potential income to add to my plan. Do you recommend getting an LLC first?

Hi
I am a graphic designer i can help you in your work (merch by amazon ) i can find profitable niche for you also i can do custom t-shirt design
Do you need an LLC to do this. I saw you said you can put your name but would you eventually need an LLC? Or what are the benefits of an LLC ?
This is what I want to know.
Not really the type to comment but this is an amazing video. Thank you for taking your time to help us all.
I just got approved and I'm so excited!!!
Thanks so much Sharon. I was starting to register a seller account (based in Australia) and these questions really confused me: "Do you have Universal Product Codes (UPCs) for all your products?" and "Do you own government-registered trademark for the branded products you want to sell on Amazon?". I was going to try open source symbols on t-shirts so not sure where to go from here (eg a spiral ). Does anyone have any advice on these questions? Thanks xx
I’m also from Australia
Seller account is different - I believe you are talking about Amazon FBA? FBA does require UPC codes but Merch doesn’t
I'll give you credit for being honest. Most of these videos I come across make it seem WAY too easy and lucrative than it is. Been on Merch by Amazon for years and years and it has become more and more of a struggle to make much of anything moneywise
I know exactly how you feel.
This video was well done. Excellent job.
On one explained like this, thank you so much and you earned a new subscriber.
Nice content! The best way to find that balance between saving and living is by investing, this way you get to have your savings intact and then live comfortably of the revenue coming in from your investments.
His trade execution quality and profiting is well structured with great financial features.
Good good content.
Yes I'm a living testimony of Romero pieto his platform has also done a great thing for me.
I've seen so many review about this man called Romero pieto who is he ?
Mr Romero pieto trades on my behalf due to my tight schedules and he is indeed absolutely doing great, my last investment of $5,000 he gave me my ROI of $37,000 in a period of a month isn't that amazing.
I’m so tired of busting my ass for other people. I’m ready to bring in different streams of income so I can enjoy life to the fullest! Ready for this passive income journey 🙏🏼
Thanks for your effort. Really liked the content.
One of the best vids on this subject I've seen. Thank you! 💚🎸
Appreciate it! ❤️
Mrs Kimberly is legit and her method works like magic I keep on earning every single week with her new strategy
I still wonder how she gets her analysis, I got profit of $28, 609 with a capital of $4000 in 16 days of trading with her
Yes Most people remain poor only because friends and relatives discouraged and advise them against investing and trading forex while the wise ones kept investing and growing higher financially
Trading without a professional like expert Mrs Kimberly is like gambling with your money
Does anyone have her instagram or twitter account?
Scam! 🙄
will forever be indebted to you 😇 you have changed my whole life i will continue to preach about your name for the world to her you have saved me from a huge financial debt with just little investment thanks so much Mrs Lauren Simmons
I invest with Mrs Lauren Simmons , too she charge a 15% commission on profit made after every trade session which is fair compare to the effort she put in to make huge profit.....
✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨
I have traded with alot of individuals but i have never come across anyone as good as Mrs Lauren Simmons , applying her stratergies, i now trade indenpendently..she is the best id advice any novice in investing to trade with her
I came across this name while reading an article on CNBC, But i wasn't given much information about her. Could you pass along her info because i would love to try out her service for myself?
() who's this professional everyone is talking about?
Tell her I referred you
I follow you on Instagram and you always putting out fire content!!! Thank you!
I'm so happy to hear it! :D
thank you for these strategies, will be starting this upcoming year :)
Thank you a lot of this video!! This video is super helpful
I'd be curious if your design was rejected. You made a common mistake on your title that is against terms of service. How long has it been since you've worked on merch by amazon? Not hating, I watched the whole thing and liked it but you gave bad advice there. Sorry to point this out, new people need to know
It wasn't! It's still up. I'll add a note that the word "Gifts" isn't allowed in a pinned comment - sorry about that and thanks for pointing it out. I've been on since 2017 or so as you can see from the stats, but I haven't truly worked on Merch by Amazon in a while as I've been focused on other things. But it is cool that it still cash flows
@@SharonTseung im happy you caught it so you can update it. Again, I was just trying to help out, good video :)
The key to making big money on Merch by Amazon in 2021? Start in 2017.
You can say that about anything! Don't let that belief system restrict you from taking action. I still made $700 last month without touching it, and there are def people killin it on MBA who made this their fulltime gig - and have expanded to platforms like etsy, redbubble, teepublic, shopify etc
Like seriously, I'm tired... I've applied four times.
I don't want to give up.
It took me 5 months to get accepted but your video has helped me become less nervous of starting
This is great info, keep it up!
