wow! thanks, greg. i've requested this in one of your past videos. god bless you, man. keep helping people. the good you do will come back to you in manifold ways.😊
First of all, I would like to thank you very much for your videos, your honesty and clarity. Whenever I watch them, I always think extra positively about you. We are grateful to you for being different from other RU-vidrs. Do we need to advertise on Pinterest? Is it unnecessary? Do we need to pay taxes for our earnings on passive print on demand websites? Are the conditions the same for every country? thank you!! :)
Thank you! I do not think it's necessary to advertise on Pinterest. As for taxes, yes we pay taxes but it's very simple. We just add our profit received that year from all POD sites combined to our taxes as Other Income. More on that topic here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-WQTYTdsxEk0.html
You're quite a great person! You help without expectations. I've seen many of your posts and they're all awesome! You deserve all the happiness and blessings you get. Thank you, Daniel Ambrose
Hi Greg, thanks for all your great (FREE!) content! It is much appreciated. I've been watching a bunch of your POD videos, and this is the first time I've seen you go into deeper detail on filling out those keyword & description boxes. Most of your videos are shown using TEE Public, and you don't usually show how to fill out the title & description boxes in as much detail as you do in this video. So, should we be doing all the same steps in Tee Public & Red Bubble as you show in this video for keyword ranking? Thanks again!
No worries! Thanks for the comment and support, I appreciate it. Yes, the ‘basic’ way of doing it shown on Teepublic works as well, but if you’ve reached the more advanced stage then this way is even better for all 3 sites 👍
@@GregGottfried - hi Greg - quick comment. I opened an account at TeePublic and uploaded a single design, following all your directions. Everything went along just as you directed. I then noticed that when I tried to search for my design just to see if it would come up in search results, nothing would show up. I inquired with their customer service and here's their response: ---------------------------------------- The reason why you cannot find your design is that your account status is Pending. Every artist is assigned a “Pending” status upon sign-up until a review is completed and an Account Category is assigned. Feel free to read more about Account Categories in the FAQ. Accounts are categorized towards the beginning of an artist’s enrollment on the site at TeePublic’s sole discretion. If you haven’t received a notice of your Account Category by the time you get this reply, we likely need more information. We recommend the following to initiate a review of your account: A profile image A banner A bio Social media links At least 10 uploaded designs Once fulfilled, you will receive an email notification within 3 business days notifying you of your Account Category. We will not be responding to or fulfilling any requests for Account Category upgrades so make sure you are uploading an accurate representation of the designs you plan to contribute to the TeePublic marketplace in your initial uploads. -------------------------------------- So in conclusion, a new artist (like me) has to do a bit more in order for my t-shirts to be found in the search results. This is not something that I was aware of, but will try to get the rest of those items completed. My suggestion to you - maybe in future videos, make the viewer aware that just because they open a TeePublic account and upload a single design, doesn't make their t-shirts show up in search results until their account is approved by completing the above tasks. Currently, my account is still "pending".
@@GregGottfried - Hi Greg, thought my other response went through here but maybe it didn't. I'll re-write it here. I opened an account at TeePublic following your video instructions and all went fine. I then tried to search for my one t-shirt design that I launched on TeePublic but it was not searchable. Apparently, as a new designer, TeePublic will keep your account pending until you hit certain thresholds. Here is their message to me: ----------------------------- The reason why you cannot find your design is that your account status is Pending.

Thank you.
This is a great topic to cover specifically for Amazon MOD, good to know about how you’re doing it. Thanks for sharing Greg! Do you also sell your designs in other countries, if so, what have been your pricing strategies for other marketplaces on Amazon?
Thanks for the comment, and glad to hear this video was useful. Yes, I do. I set the same margin as USD for the other currencies, and operate within a $2-5 profit margin like the US marketplace. I have these set as defaults and then saved, so when Amazon auto-uploads them the prices are set that way automatically. Hope that makes sense and helps.
This isn't related to this video in particular but why did you switch from using the keyword research to the competition checker to find good sub-niches? Is one better than the other?
Great question. They both work equally. It's just a personal preference. They moved the keyword research area around a bit so I find the competition checker to be more efficient lately.
The training was excellent, and I'm determined to launch my Merch on demand. However, Amazon rejected my account request. I want to figure out how to get accepted. It would be great to create a video tutorial on resolving this issue.
Great question! I think they reserve the right to remove it due to people using it as spam. In this case, it’s not spam and used correctly so there are no issues. Especially in the brand name, since established brands could have gift in their brand name 👍
Say we find a safe phrase, not copyrighted, use it and makes sales, then at some point in the future someone copyrights that same phrase. What happens? Will we get a strike?
Not necessarily directly related but how do I see so many people whether it’s a page or ads where someone struggled working a 9-5 wanted a way out and started digital marketing, UGC, Amazon reviewing etc They all seem to have success but never show their success from said niche just how much they have made from the course the sell
Hi @GregGottfried, I wanted to ask if enabling the 'Automatic Upload' feature could lead to listings being rejected. Specifically, I'm concerned about Amazon automatically uploading these designs to other products and markets that might violate intellectual property or trademark rights. Thank you!
Hi Greg, great vid, interested to see you use the word 'gifts'? Is this the way round using the word 'gift' as Amazon has said that this is a banned word? If you use 'gifts' does it go to manual review or sail straight through the review process? Thanks
Great question. They don't want it spammed in brand/title/features/description for keyword stuffing. Using it in the brand name is okay because some people may actually have a registered brand with 'gift' or 'gifts' in their name.
Thanks for the comment, great question. Each of the sites does payments their own way, however across the board you will be paid either automatically direct deposit to your bank each month, automatically paid to your PayPal each month, or funds build up in your account and you can choose how often you want to withdraw them either into PayPal/Payoneer/direct deposit. You add your payment preferences in your account settings. I hope that helps clarify!
Hello. I have a question. If we already have a seller account and are using PL, can we still create an Amazon merch on demand account and sell products?
I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to inquire about the process for reapplying to Merch by Amazon. Could you please clarify whether I need to reapply using a new email address or if I can use the same email address as my previous application? Thank you for your assistance.
I take the list of words into chatgpt and prompt "Use this list of words and sort by the number following each word "pasted in words", Then I delete the lowest ranked words.
Great question. They don't want it spammed in brand/title/features/description for keyword stuffing. Using it in the brand name is okay because some people may actually have a registered brand with 'gift' in their name.
You upload valuable content but what about thumbnails, they could be better , you know they play vital role to increase CTR so I would like to redesign one of yours so let me know your response and share contact info to send thumbnail sample.
