Our Application to Amazon Merch on Demand
Owners of Star House Books, where we have been successfully growing our coloring book, graphic fiction, and journal titles through Amazon’s Kindle Direct Publishing. https://www.starhousebooks.com We are professional graphic artists with decades of experience as illustrators, graphic designers, and marketers.
We are excited about the opportunity to work with Amazon Merch on Demand and build a partnership selling printed apparel and products. Here is a little about us:
• Original Designs Only: If we didn’t draw it, write it, or create it from scratch, we won’t touch it. We are ardent proponents of trademark and copyright law and we would never copy someone else’s design or idea (and also hope that nobody copies or steals ours). We have spent decades developing our unique individual graphic styles and will be proud to create and promote timeless, iconic, elegant (and sometimes garish!) original art—custom made for Amazon Merch on Demand’s apparel and product lines.
• We are Niche-Savvy: We don’t follow micro-trends for current events, celebrities, or political news. Our designs are one-of-a-kind and our niches are evergreen. Beginning with:
1- Celtic / Irish / Norse / Viking
2-Yoga / Mandala / Meditation / Pilates (for women)
3-Fun and not so scary skulls for Goth / Metal / Emo / Rocker—everybody loves skulls! 💀
• We have more ideas than hours in the day: Between the two of us, we have unlimited creativity and look forward to growing sales in these niches and beyond.
• Designs are Ready-To-Go: We have print-ready designs, properly formatted to PNG-24 w/transparency, aliased (sharp edges), RGB, at 4500x5400, 485x485, etc. With years of print design and production under our belts, we are well-versed in the vocabulary and technical requirements of commercial printing.
• 10+ years experience writing compelling Product Detail Pages: William’s previous tenure at a multi-million-dollar jewelry ecommerce site included oversight, copywriting, image upload, and archiving for thousands of e-commerce product listings. A PDP needs to always be optimized for a great customer experience: with SEO for discoverability and keywords in the bullet points that are relevant to the shopper’s needs.
• Our Social Network = Tiny But Mighty: On both Instagram and Threads we have a “quality over quantity” audience of people who are genuine and supportive. They are always receptive to our new work.
• With Great Products Come Great Responsibility: We have read and wholly agree to comply with Amazon’s Terms of Use, Services Agreement, Content Policies, Program Materials License Agreement, Portal User Permissions & Responsibilities, and rights granted.
• Trademark & Copyright: It’s so important that it’s worth mentioning again. We are acutely aware of the importance of not infringing on existing trademarks and copyrighted intellectual property. No insinuation, resemblance, or even anything “kinda close” to another work would ever be considered viable. This includes corporate brands, popular IPs, and independent creator’s work.
Our work is self-inspired and created only by us. We don’t jump on holiday, cultural, meme, or political bandwagons. Our goal is to create elevated and evergreen designs that Amazon customers will seek-out, fall in love with, and purchase for years to come.
• Thank you Team Amazon—we would love to work with you and grow our designs into a popular and profitable product line for Amazon Merch on Demand.
