[@Abidawan1]

Can you send the link for Brand registry as well Please. Thanks

[@miminguyen5939]

I just got my brand approved today, little trick to tell you is, i went to office depot and ordered a pre-ink stamp, with your brand name, they can get it done for you the same day, then stamp on a few boxes, the place the boxes and the products side by side, take several pictures ( your hand can be in the pictures) send to them and get approved. Thanks alot for youe video.

[@CamronJames]

Great information! Thanks for that.

[@frankreyna4456]

Great job. Do you have to have both product and box in the picture? I will go order a stamp today. Thanks.

[@avikmkrtchian146]

did you have to stamp all the products after that before sending it to amazon or can you send them without the stamp after you get the brand approved?

[@anthonygoulet8208]

Thanks, I'm have trouble with the pictures too. I'll try that. Thank you

[@gouttaiomar5973]

Thanks for the information. a quick question, does brand approval allow you to use A+ Content?

[@marlonhosten4693]

BEST VIDEO ON KZbin ON THIS TOPIC ! This is the only video that takes you through step by step ! EXCELLENT !

[@abdullahbillali3604]

I second that

[@Faisny]

Holy smokes! Just learned that brand approval and brand registry are 2 separate applications. I recently applied for brand registry, and Camron is right, they asked for ridiculous documents and proofs. Heading back to Amazon for "brand approval" application now. Thank you Camron for explaining this in detail.

[@Gurbanwear]

will amazon aks for brand invoices in future? i am trying to do the same as it can stop hijackers aswell? and what if i am the small manufacturer and use this brand appproval and cant provie invoices? what was your experience? thanks.

[@Faisny]

@@Gurbanwear for brand approval they don't ask too much but yes if they want they could ask for documents and invoices. I honestly didn't have that much trouble with brand approval. Brand Registry is totally different ball game and yes you need lot of documentation and proofs.

[@dianneatfeld687]

Brilliant video thank you. Well I got brand approval right away BUT for weeks I’ve been trying to list my first product and they keep saying you need to apply for brand approval! I keep saying this is the case no, you approved me! And round and round we go!

[@CamronJames]

Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!

[@angelofosho]

Thanks for this video. This is exactly what I was looking for. Trying to get the FNSKU and not use a generic branded listing to give to my supplier before production starts is a death loop that Amazon created.

[@lilygirl8446]

You mean to say that a generic listing is not good?

[@Wyatt277]

I got approved! took three weeks going back and forth with Amazon thank you Camron! 🎉

[@BrokerJoJoTexas]

Man great video because not knowing any of this going in makes it very overwhelming and well now knowing how to do it the right way saves me money and time. Thank you

[@nickdavis4839]

Thanks, Camron, for this video tutorial! I followed your instructions step by step and had my brand approved in less than 2 hours.

[@CamronJames]

Great to hear! Thanks for watching!

[@musicmatters1114]

Can I do this method of branding if I am repackaging other name brands products into a box with my brand name on it? Such as variety packs of small items that I am making into a variety bulk package?

[@bioniccrypto7447]

Thanks for the info. Currently in an email war with Amazon. They have asked for everything but my dog's baptismal certificate in trying to list a product that I had a marketing consultant create the brand name and packaging. Have watched many Amazon videos on KZbin but you are the first that I have subscribed to.

[@vyktorornelas]

Did it work?

[@RedPillBroadcast]

Doesn't sound like you are a legitimate business perhaps - just selling something under a name but not really a registered business with the state and a matching EIN issued by the IRS for your business - Right?

[@fashionfinds4less]

This was a game changer thank you so much for dropping these gems and helping us out ❤

[@dianneatfeld687]

I’ve today closed selling account. Their advisers are the worst of the worst. When not sending you print outs that don’t relate they send you constantly conflicting information. My brand name is already in catalogue. My brand name isn’t in catalogue. Over and over for weeks. Then I ask for phone call to help, each time they hang up on me although I’m patiently explaining my problems. All of its in India and they are confused, uninterested and like robots

[@SamirLakhani-z6x]

Thanks for the video! Just an FYI, it looks like they changed the permanently affixed language. Here's what I see now: The branding "xyz" must be stamped, stitched, printed, or stick on the product and/or packaging so that it is not easily removeable Also - do you know if the branding needs to be on every single package I plan to sell? Or only one package just for the brand approval?

[@rebekab2324]

That's great to know, my label is a sticker

[@rickevans7854]

This is what I was looking for but Ultimately which is better, just getting band approval or actually getting a registered Trademark?

[@AshleyOverstreet-h4g]

Thank you so much i needed this. Launching my first product and this was so informative.

[@johnsonzheng4508]

Thank you! Can you list other products of the same brand name after this approval process? :)

[@Pinchas5]

Thank you, great video! Just a question: After I get the Brand Approval by Amazon, can I or should I register the Trademark also at USPTO? And if do it, can I update this information after in Amazon?

[@elivate1525]

I'm wondering this same thing and can't find any info on it anywhere.

[@RandyJustiniani]

Great video! Thanks for the information! So we need to buy upc number first for our product. Then aply for brand approval.

[@JohnNascimentoArt]

Thank you for all your help. I'm getting ready to start. Thus far I only have my Amazon store. Nothing in it. I have found the first product that I will be selling and want to do Brand Approval. I'm a bit lost in what to do next, or should I say, the step to step. I will need to get a bar code, then get the FNSKU from Amazon. So that my supplier can print it on my product package. I also need to have my Brand printed on said package. The is where I'm lost. So to get the FNSKU I need to create a listing? But to create a Brand Approval listing I need pictures of package with my Brand name printed on it. Help!!

[@gerenzelmandzhieva4120]

Same question

[@kristineannenumbela4851]

I like your tutorials, I gained so much knowledge from you!

[@eliokcu8573]

Can you just tell the manufacturer to send you photos instead of shipping a sample? thank you

[@CamronJames]

ya if able

[@stacyfernandes8234]

Thank you james for this information very informative, God bless you and your work.

[@tbspaz1633]

Does anyone know if you can get away with submitting the picture of one custom package and leave the rest of your packages generic to avoid paying for custom packaging?

[@erdoganguner4348]

I think they are asking for proof that the brand exists and you are using it on your products. They do the same when you want to trademark your brand. You have to prove that it is an actual brand and live. Then do whatever packaging you want to use.

[@lauranunez4855]

Hi! I'm just getting started and I want to re-sell new band name handbags. My specific question is if I want to sell different styles of one specific brand does each style need to be submitted for approval or do you only submit the approval for the specific brand once?

[@nouamandehmani]

I guess you are referring to variations, say you want to list a hand bag of a brand and that hand bag has variations of colors and sizes etc.. or could be variations of different hand bag models of that hand bag Brand

[@alvinavulue1811]

After you are approved for that listing for your brand are you going to have to do the apply again to list other products from your brand? Example: I listed a shampoo for the listing brand application that was approved if I want to list conditioner or hair brushes do I need to go through the same steps or would I be okay to list other products under my brand?

[@hojjatahangarikiasari7670]

Very helpful. Saved me from all the confusion.

[@CreateYourBestLife777]

Hello Camron. Great video! Can I ask a question: after being product approved, will I have to sell my products only using the packaging with the branding I provided them with? Thank you!🙏💞

Hi James, I have a question. There is an item on Amazon with brand name, and I would like to sell the same product from the same manufacturer but with different brand name ? Is it possible to do so ? I would be very glad to get answer Regards Avaz

[@DWSaum]

Great video! I have some very old listing where my brand was accepted before without any application. But now I want to add some new products with the same brand and they are asking me to get brand approval. Do I need to do anything other than you explained in the video? Thanks in advance.

[@jackyboy6170]

Hi Camron, I appreciate your video. How do certain sellers sell their product under a brand name, but when you get their actual product, it doesn't have any brand name at all physically affixed to it?

[@grannyssecret]

Hey wonderfully explained i have a question i make a hair mask what i should do to list it on amazon its a natural organic product

[@marlonhosten4693]

Thank you for this, IT SAVED MY ACCOUNT !

[@Mo-hz7mg]

Hey guys first time here, I wanted to get brand approval by Amazon then they said the following images of the product and/or packaging are not real-world (ex. images are computer generated, marketing quality, or digitally altered) they are not altered I showed them the product packaging these products to be generic because other Brand strings have provided the same product and or packaging images. The branding or other identifying mark that appears on the product or its packaging must be distinguishable from similar products that do not belong to that brand.

[@philly.creative]

Im running into this issue too its really annoying

[@Mo-hz7mg]

@@philly.creative I’ve just been brand approved. Since you got that same message as I did do it again, so make another lisiting and get to the part where it says Brand name as before. Show different angles of your product I did 3 pictures with angles. Then take a screen shot of the email they sent you where it says the 5665 error and make sure the date is on the email. Hopefully it works brother 🫡

[@philly.creative]

​@@Mo-hz7mg Why make another listing? If I do that then I have to buy a new upc code each time, cant I just use the same listing that asks me to get brand approval? And the whats the purpose behind including a screenshot of the email ? Does that make more inclined to approve ?

[@Mo-hz7mg]

Yes bro sorry for the late reply. When they don’t approve you they send you this list down below ⬇️ , so start again not another listing but make an inquiry like you did before to get brand approval but add the steps below and take different angles of your product packaging - The brand name used while creating the listing. - Images of the product and packaging, which shows branding on either. The images can show the product and packaging when either held in hand, or placed on a table. The branding must be permanently affixed. - The latest screenshot of the error code 5665 with the registered brand name and time stamp visible in the background.

[@philly.creative]

@@Mo-hz7mg all good thanks for response, what if my brand name is not registered, can this brand approval still work?

[@DrivenbyAlex]

Is a logo ok ? Or the brand need to have words on the products?

[@xalmaan]

Thanks for the video, your detailed instruction was really helpful!

[@StarVSOP]

I needed this! Thank you so much for the video!

[@erickfloyd1402]

What if it’s multiple items like beard oils and balms etc? Different scents? Do you have to apply for each item? Also me and my son started a brand not trademarked yet. Our Shopify website, and sales tax license is in my name but the Amazon seller account is in his name will they allow our brand? Or does everything have to be in one persons name?

[@Luxeliving10]

Hi Interesting video👌 I do have a quick question does this branding apply to name brands like Louis Vuitton and then you just put that in there as Louis Vuitton? I have not posted anything yet most flag you even if it’s authentic Thanks!

[@mcbeauty-t3v]

I have a question, when you add which categories for your products, can you then later use the same brand in other categories?

[@TheDude-vx6wn]

Excellent video. Thanks! Do you have a tutorial on step by step on how to send your products to Amazon for FBA?

[@akimalam2041]

Hello James, I watched all of your videos few times regarding Brand Approval and GTIN Exemption. I have got my products from China. It's a hair clip and I had to put Brand label using transparent sticker. Amazon kept saying "do not see sufficient proof that the branding is permanently affixed to the product or packaging, per the Brand Name Policy". Any suggestion how to overcome this. Please help and advice.

[@brochuevelyne]

I have the same problem.

[@SueAlexander-pr1uf]

I already have 200 branded products in my apartment ready to sell. My brand name and logo is permanently on each product but they are still rejecting every time. So frustrating

[@4KDisneyTV]

Great information but if you put a name on a product without filing or having the trademark name as filed or processing it would be useless right? You could be using a name that is already trademarked. The trademarking process is 10-18 months. This is the confusing part.

[@ArielleDanielleAnneYang]

When selling accessories, I cannot engrave my brand on the accessories themselves. Is stamping my brand on the Earring Cards (the paper the earrings come attached onto) ok? Will that be accepted as it's permanently attached onto the packaging?

[@OhhGalvan]

Does this eork for all products in the future and existing listings after you get brand approval for like gildan?

Many thanks!

[@DougPipersr]

Camron, great video ....thank you for making it. I have an existing listing that's almost 8 years old, but I've never pursued Brand Approval for my company name. I followed your video and found the "Brand Approval Required" popup and applied to sell. It appears my Company Name is available for Brand Name approval (or at least it said "You have entered a brand name that has not been approved by Amazon..." So, since I have an existing listing with my company name ....is there anything I need to be careful about in the Brand Approval Application?

[@stephaniefernandez5640]

@camron James- I have done everything you said in this video and Amazon will not approve my brand. I have submitted 6 applications. What am I doing wrong???

So do I

[@mystictraveler8642]

Are they not accepting sticker labels for printed UPC codes on the packaging? Does it have to be printed on the package now?

[@myopinionofficial]

Appreciate your videos Camron. Just started on Amazon and you’ve helped avoid quite a few mistakes. Keep it up!

[@binhnguyenscorner3860]

Dear James, it looks like I did it backward: instead of getting approval with my brand name first, I got the SKU with 'Generic". So, is it still changeable, I should go back into the listing to get an approval? Should I ask my supplier to print the brand name on the package or on the product to do the image documents? Thank you and best wishes!

Hi Camron, I love your videos, listen to all. QQ - The application for Amazon Seller UK asks for a photo to 'Include the bar code on the product (or packaging)'. Do you know if I need to get my GTIN13/14 barcode printed on a sticker and affixed to my product packaging??

Hi Camron, I had a question, I recently submitted a brand registry application with Amazon for my first product. I am also launching a second product which completely different than the first one.

[@sianb2977]

Hey Camron - would really appreciate your help. I'm submitting a trademark, and I need to know does the "company" name in the trademark lodging need to be 100% exact with the BRAND name in Amazon? I.e. my brand name I am trademarking the word and the logo. However because I don't have a PTY business, rather sole trader, they are going to put my name as the company name. Will this cause issues from Amazon side? (i.e. my name is not the brand name?)

[@roycedoroba502]

does this registration process still apply as of today ? so instead of waiting for your trademark appication to clear , you're best to list your brand first anyway and then apply for the trademark afterwards. ?

[@genuineidea6043]

I am trying to get approval for my brand (private label) without brand registry but they denied saying that this brand does not exist. When I filled up the application, there was one more question on the form which is, are you affiliated with this brand? If I say yes, they ask me for the brand authorization letter. If I say no, they deny my saying this brand doesn’t exist. What should i do? Please advise.
