September 2024 – Amazon Merch on Demand Income Report

In fact, I completed all of the goals I set in September (which was only 1 but I’m still proud of myself). Before we get into goals, let’s see how much I earned in September on Merch on Demand (spoiler: it was a record-setting month).

September 2024 – Amazon KDP Income Report

by

Posting these income reports late is starting to become a pattern. Sorry about that. It’s been a very busy two weeks for me. My parents decided to sell our house (we live in a duplex – me in the walk-out basement and my parents on the main floor). We spent the first week touring house after house trying to find something that would work for all of us. We finally found a house to buy and then rushed to get our house on the market. After the inspection last Wednesday, we decided to pull our offer because that house needed …

August 2024 – Amazon KDP Income Report

by

August was an absolutely horrible month for me personally but I’m excited to finally share this report. But first, a little backstory on the nightmarish month I had. During the first week of August, my 10 year old beagle, Remington, started throwing up in the early morning hours. It would only be once around 3 or 4 AM and only happened two or three days that week. The next week she started throwing up during the day, around noon. It would only be once and she would be fine after that. I decided to take her into the vet thinking …

July 2024 – Etsy Store Income Report

by

I mentioned this in the last post but the last two weeks have been extremely difficult for me. My almost 10 year old dog, Remington, got very sick and I had to put her down. I’ve had her since she was a puppy so this loss was heartbreaking. I miss her so much. I’m slowly starting to get back to regular life and a new daily routine without my girl. Someday I’d like to get another dog but first, I need to make more money. Dogs are expensive! It’s definitely motivation to reach my Etsy, Merch and KDP income goals. …

I was going to post this income report last week but then tragedy struck. My sweet beagle girl, Remington, got very sick and I had to put her down. She was going to turn 10 next month and I’ve had her since she was 9 weeks old. I don’t have kids and view her as my baby. It was a very traumatic week for me. I spent most of the week crying or in bed. I’m slowly starting to get into a new routine without my dog but it’s been challenging. I miss her a lot and everything reminds me …

Amazon Merch On Demand – Let’s Pick A Niche!

by

I’m having a hard time picking a niche for my marketing plan so I thought writing down my thought process could help me figure this out. So far, I’ve discovered 10 niches that have less than 1,000 results in the Women’s Novelty T-shirt category on Amazon. I choose that category because I noticed that there are far fewer t-shirt designs for women than there are for men. I also feel much more comfortable marketing for that group. Here is an overview of the 10 niches and total number of results for each niche: Niche #1 – Hobby Niche – 112 …
