Amazon Merch On Demand – 2024 Year In Review & A Look Ahead to 2025

This past year with Amazon Merch On Demand has been frustrating. I’m stuck on Tier 500 and don’t have enough sales to move up to the next tier.

Let’s see how they worked and figure out a plan for 2025. How Much Did I Make in 2024? In January 2024, I made 6 sales for a total of $25.49. In December, …

November 2024 – Etsy Store Income Report

I’m actually dreading doing this report. My Etsy store didn’t do very good in Q4. At all. In fact, there were two weeks where I wasn’t getting any views or sales. I think it was in November but it might have been December (the months are all running together in my head). I thought there was something wrong with my store but then I checked out the Etsy Sellers Facebook page and found that there were other sellers experiencing the same thing. No views & no sales despite updating their stores or running sales. Not sure what was wrong but …

December 2024 – Amazon KDP Income Report

If you read the November 2024 Amazon KDP Income Report, then you’ll understand why the December report is so late. The holidays were super busy for me and I just didn’t have any time to dedicate to my business. The cool thing about passive income is that even if you don’t work on your business, you still make money. December was a record month for me despite not working on my books. For most people who work online, Q4 (October, November, December) is the most profitable time of the year and that was the case with KDP. I’ll stop talking …
