Any point selling as a new seller?
My brand is fully registered and i am a part of both amazon brand registry and custom products.
I am having a terrible time getting my own designs to win the buy box for themselves.
First of all i listed 38 designs using 2400 variations / new asins, after 2 weeks with no buy box / customer views and a very strangulated amount able to list due to weekly asin creation limit i decided to change my strategy
I deleted all of the 38 designs/variations and Instead of listing 1 design with 6 size and 25 colours i took the approach to list 1 design with 6 sizes and the colours selectable by custom.
i only did 2 when i came to the wall with a big sign asking is there any point, after a week im still not winning the buy box to my 2 products and i have had 1 view even with a sponsorship campaign active on it
Here is an asin for you: B081XBGRTL
Any help would be greatly appreciated, im getting irritated by the thought that im paying £30 a month for absolutely nothing and any work i do will be pointless.
if i go and list 100 designs ( approximately 500 asins) how long untill a customer can actually buy something of mine? i have 360 designs available to list right now but my soul is asking what the hell im doing wasting my time when i go to do the work.
Am i missing something?
Thanks

Have just clicked on your ASIN - just want to point out that Winnie does not have an H in it - it is not spelt Whinnie.

Do you have a license from Disney to sell Winnie the pooh pics? If not the £30 per month could be the least of your problems

Asa new seller then you are ineligible for the buy box anyway for the first 90 days, so you won’t win it for a while yet.
But concentrate on getting permission from the rights holders, if you do not already have this, before worrying about sales.

It’s tough being on Amazon as a new seller. Yes you will need to be patient in regards to sales.
Buy Box is strange and you’ll soon notice that you’re competing with yourself.

A couple of posters have mentioned the rights thing.
Do you have permission from Disney to print/sell these items?
I know you said they are your own creations, which makes me think they are not purchased from Disney to be resold.
I am just slightly worried about this.
Can you just confirm that you are actually allowed to sell these items?

Another pointer is that all your images do not comply with Amazons image policy. The listings will be supressed within the next few days due to this anyway. I also imagine you are going to be hit with a copyright strike as well which will likely see your account suspended being a new seller.

All listings when they are new take time to move up the rankings even if the seller has been selling for years and creates a new listing you need to count this into your strategy.
But I think your main concern, should be have I got permission from Disney to use there characters to make products. If you haven’t you are asking for trouble not only on Amazon - Disney will make sure that you will never use there characters or designs again.

I have to say this, your listing is a mess you could end up having your account suspended. I think this has been pointed out previously.
TIPS:
You better have a licence for selling Winnie The Pooh image products even if you change the name of Winnie to Whinnie, same with the rest if the images you have to offer. If there is a copyright issue you will be seriously out of pocket.
Product titles:
*CloGraphics Whinnie the Pooh Vinyl Wall Sticker Removable Nursery Quote Transfer
Try: CloGraphics Removable Wall Transfer, Whinnie the Pooh With Quote
(this a much more search friendly title)
Images must not have your brand name on them
Images must only show the product you are selling
All images should have pure white background
Of your 6 images 1 is marginal 1 is relevant (colour options) and the rest should not be there (alternative designs).
Bullet points should be relevant to the product and no ‘jargon’
(Vinyl is a type of PVC by the way)
Try:
Created by CloGraphics with vector files for a perfect print
- Whinnie The Pooh design with adventure quote, select from 24 colour variations at checkout
- Computer cut from vinyl a finished by hand, made in industry high grade Ritrama De-tape & R-tape Conform Paper
- Supplied with Lithium Printed CloGraphics Fitting instructions.
- Shipped in a secure cardboard postal tube.
Descriptions.
Proffesional Vinyl Transfers With Application Tape Pre Applied. The images to this product were created by CloGraphics with the vector files that are used to create the product, CloGraphics created the vector files therefore any other seller than CloGraphics would have to copy/create new or different vector files in order to make your item. we reccommend you be very vigilant when ordering from other sellers that may attach themselves to this listing claiming to sell exactly the same as they would have to copy/create the product from images we have created or use there own vectors that were not created by CloGraphics. Thats not to mention whether they would use the same high quality materials as us, the materials stated in the bullet points.
You better rethink what you are saying there, if you truly own IP rights deal with infringements addressed correctly through Amazon support not via descriptions.
Nothing in the description relevant except the part about it being a vector file, [There is nothing exclusive about vector files.]
Product titles:

Try CloGraphics Removable Wall Transfer, Whinnie the Pooh With Quote
Just trying to help a little, good luck with your selling

I am requesting all of my products to be returned, amazon constantly lose items and also will not allow me to send replenishment for sold out items, really difficult to sell on amazon I will find another platform.
