Hey guys, just wanted to make a quick video talking Merch and giving a few updates. 

In this video I talk about my Amazon Merch workflow, ie what is the process of me sitting down and designing like. How to be more efficent, how to actually enjoy the design process.

I also talk about Amazon Merch burnout, I think we've all experienced it at one time or another. As I've tried to scale my merch business and be more efficient it's become less fun and less creative and I've been a bit burned out. The past week or 10 days or so I havn't been uploading much if at all. One anecdotal thing I noticed is when I stop uploading my shirts overall tend to decline in sales. Could be a total coincidence but to me it almost seems like Amazon ranks higher the shirts of people who are more active on the platform.

Moving on, yesterday was Prime Day. Prime Day is always an exciting day for Amazon sellers whether your on FBA or Merch. Prime Day brings a lot of traffic and a lot of shoppers to Amazon and whether your offering deals or not you'll tend to see an increase in sales. Yesterday was a good day for me. I sold 16 designs which while it probably isn't my biggest day ever is definitely a very solid day for me personally.

Lastly we briefly discuss frivilous trademarks ie people trademarking terms like "classy" and other words that really shouldn't be protected by trademarks. 

Let me know your thoughts on these issues as well as how your Merch experience is going. Drop a comment below...
