How to Promote Your Merch Store!
“I wish there was a way to get more money from my merch.”
Have a merch store with low sale rates? Are you searching for ways to boost your sale rates? Look no further! This article is full of tips and tricks to help YOU get the cash from your merch designs!
Before this article continues, this article is written in the perspective that you already have a store. If you’re a creator with a merch store, this article is just right for your needs!
The first tip we have today is to promote your merch on your Instagram page or any other forms of social media you use. If you don’t have an Instagram page, we highly recommend making one. Instagram is a great platform to interact with your fans and share photos, links, and MERCH!
The next tip in the article is to create sales on your merchandise. If you create deals, people will be more likely to buy. Don’t do them too often-however- because you’ll be LOSING profit. If you do occasional sales, people will purchase when it’s a better deal for them.
Another tip we have today is to make prices reasonable for what you’re selling. We promise you that if you sell a shirt for $50, you’re not going to make sales. You’re not selling Gucci products as far as we know. Jokes aside, make sure you’re cautious about your prices. A great way to think when pricing is “would I purchase this item for this price?” If your answer is no, your merch is probably expensive.
Another good method is the Psychological Pricing strategy. Studies show that if you price things with a .99 cent ending, people will be more likely to purchase than if you rounded the penny. It’s strange, but true! People associate that with ‘saving money.’ You’ve most likely seen this before in grocery stores or malls.
After you use the tips above and receive your profit, it’s best to invest in some advertising. This will spread your merch to people with interests similar to your merch. For instance, if you’re selling Animal Jam merch, people who play the game might see an ad for your merch. This will not only boost your sales, but can also expand your fanbase by introducing people to your channel.
Our final tip is to get some partners. You can’t do it alone, so joining with some friends and selling merch together can dramatically increase your profit. Our Archives store has merch from all kinds of creators from Ellipsity to Awesomeisme! We have a vast list of creators we have merch for, so go check it out! The link is at the end of the article!
That’s all we’ve got for you today! We hope you can expand your merch sales and hopefully make some profit. Jam On!
