Stormy, thank you so much! I have been meaning to do more research and you answered all of the questions I have for now. I just subscribed to your channel. I so appreciate your total straight forward approach without a sales pitch, not that that is a bad thing, but I appreciate you giving the info one needs to get started. Thanks so much!❣

Thank you so much for the great information about handmade in Amazon. Do you have to spend lots of money for the PPC advertisement? and also how much do you have to pay the referral fee?

@PlanwithStormy 9 ай бұрын

I do spend some on PPC but recently I stopped some of my ads. The amount of spend for PPC depends on a lot of things and it is definitely something I didn’t do right away! I sold lots of products without doing ads so it is not a requirement! The referral fee also has some differences based on product size and if it’s FBA/Prime or not. I covered the fees in my video comparing Amazon to Etsy. Let me grab the link! Also you can reduce the referral fee with some tricks if you are Brand Registered! Will cover that in an upcoming video!

Which product? Can you help me to get approved? I got denied :(

@Rev.Robert 2 ай бұрын

@alisayan8335 so with your application, you have to provide photo proof of the product(s), materials, and tools used to make your product, I actually made a photo collage of the product, a photo cllage of the tools and one of the materials. I have my business card in each photo, I created mine on canva for free and printed it on regular paper and cut it ✂️ out by hand. I was descriptive but brief on the product, materials, and tools that I've used and gave a breakdown down of the time, for example, cut wood 5 min + router 10 min + sanding 10 min + stain 10 min + drying 25 min. = 1 hour. It may sound like a lot, but it's really not once you have it all laid out. I hope this helps. If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

If you are designing them then yes they should count as handmade. I have not done a video on Amazon Custom because I don’t currently have any custom listings. Maybe in the future!

I want to know one thing from you Are Indians given 3 stores when they register with Handmade Pay? Those who do the listing, they have to do different listings on different stores. Hi, or for listing on one store, will it be shown on 3 stores?

@PlanwithStormy 6 ай бұрын

If you are in the US you are given access to US, Canada and Mexico. They recently added Brazil to my account (I didn’t apply for it). To list in each region you need different listings. And my understanding is you can use auto translate or list in native language. So 3 regions need 3 listings. Hope that helps and I hope I read the question right.

Does an item I handmade but didn’t create get approved ? Example I make bracelets but I don’t create the bracelets I make I either take orders or find inspirations online and create something similar to sale ?

@PlanwithStormy 2 ай бұрын

You are still making the product. As long as you aren’t copying any other sellers the item should be approved. You will need a product to list items. Custom orders are handled differently.

If I'm currently a seller must I create new listings in Handmade for products I have listed on regular Amazon? What are the advantages of selling under Handmade vs regular Amazon?

@PlanwithStormy 7 ай бұрын

Selling Handmade gets the professional seller account fee waived. If the items on regular Amazon are truly Handmade I would definitely switch them over. I have not tried to switch a listing so not sure how that works and if it would be like starting over. Ultimately, there are things you can do with a "regular" listing you can't do with a Handmade listing and vice versa, so how you list is truly up to you!

Hi! I applied for Amazon Handmade on 12/18/23 and still have not heard whether I have been approved. What should I do? Do you have a phone number for Seller support?

@PlanwithStormy 9 ай бұрын

You will have to open a case with Amazon. There is a help menu to contact them. They don't have a number to call but with the case you can request a call back instead of an email.

Hello, im having a hard time figure out what it means to have “assembly line or automation technology” for handmade.. I do see people with machine embroidered hats on amazon handmade currently. But i think it rides the line. Perhaps there are other things that make those things be categorized as handmade?

@PlanwithStormy 9 ай бұрын

There is always more that goes into the products. I have a machine that helps cut the stickers. I could never cut that many by hand with a knife. I do design the stickers and I use some clip art for my journaling kits but I design the sheets and the extras for the kits. I don’t think any expects an embroidered shirt or hat to be completely stitched by hand. Hope that helps!

Great video! I’m just starting out and creating with resin. I want to sell these to donate proceeds to non profit animal sanctuary. Do I have to have a license to sell? I will only display one or two at a time to sell as they are made. Mt creations will each be one of a kind, numbered and signed. What category would I fit in? I don’t want a business. Just create and donate proceeds. Thank you

@PlanwithStormy 6 ай бұрын

Pretty sure that would still count for handmade. You should check into being a non-profit or not-for-profit. I can’t give guidance on that part though.
