Hi,

Yes, you can start running ads to your listings before making a sale; this may very well help you receive your first few. That is up to you. It depends on the products you offer and the demand/competition.

Hi,

Yes, that should be fine for what you are selling

Hi I sell prints. I have just opened an Amazon account. Am I ok to put mock ups with the print designs on as the product image? It’ll be very difficult to take a picture framed if every single print I do? Thanks

Hi Brain,
Thanks for this wonderful article.
Do you think it is compulsory to run ads on Amazon handmade before making any sale?
And how many products do you recommend I list before I start getting results?
Thanks for help.

Hi Bob,

No, it will not! Fill out the application and show your process, you should be ok with getting approved.

I sell landscape pictures on Etsy. I am the creator of each picture and hand sign but the printing on paper; canvas or metal is outsourced. Then shipped to the buyer. Will that disqualify me from selling on Amazon handmade?

Hi Nick,

Thanks for your comment! I agree, it is hard to find items sometimes in the Handmade category unless you know to look there.

Handmade is Not seen in the main directory or even when searching all. Some make in there most don’t. It’s in its own little category of its own. The customer has to select it to find most hand made items. I learned this the hard way. Many sign up and actually put products up and find this later. Idk what the glitch is but it’s been going on for years. So a big no one the 3.1billion customers.

Amazon does not care about this issue. Some of my product get through most never do. I still do better on Etsy. Most likely because I’ve searched on Amazon in my product area of what’s out there in normal search and found it very lousy and barely some products in that come up regarding the search terms.

If every customer knew to goto handmade we would all be rich. It’s got some great products compared to regular search but it’s too bad it’s tucked in a basement hidden from 3.1billion potentials. So AMZ vs Etsy. Etsy sadly wins because AMZ just has no clue this is even a issue.

I will not go into handmade support, but let’s just say no one is in that department.

Hello!
If I want to sell a soap do I need any certification?
