Benefits of Handmade
To all the talented makers on Handmade, I know you may sometimes ask yourself “why sell on Amazon when I have other platforms to sell on?”. Well, I’m here to tell you that are in the right place and we appreciate you being a Handmade seller on Amazon.
Amazon offers you a large customer base, and is one of the largest online marketplaces in the world, providing access to millions of potential customers. Handmade is specifically tailored for artisans, making it easier to connect with customers who are looking for unique, handcrafted items.
Being part of Amazon’s marketplace can enhance your brand visibility and credibility as customers often trust Amazon to provide quality products. Amazon provides various marketing tools, such as promotions and advertising to help sellers gain visibility as well as drive sells.
When it comes to packaging your delicate crafts, you have two options,. You can either handle shipping yourself or use Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA) which allows you to store your products in Amazon’s warehouses and leave the shipping and customer service up to us.
In terms of analytics and insights, Amazon provides valuable data in helping sellers understand their sales and customer performance to make informed business decisions. Amazon also provides community support to help you understand and grow your business. There are resources and support available for artisans to help navigate the selling process, such as the The Forums, Seller Support,Account Representatives and Seller Central.

Have you ever even read any of my posts…or any of the posts on this forum????
It only takes 10 minutes of browsing this forum to know there are SERIOUS ISSUES with handmade that Amazon continues to ignore.
It would be nice if we could get some sort of official remarks about the status of Amazon Handmade instead of this “everything is great” koolaid flavored word salad.

Like Please explain to me how a dvd is on the main page of Handmade. I made a thread about this with no response at all from the Mods. It’s still there.
This is embarrassing.

"Handmade is specifically tailored for artisans, making it easier to connect with customers who are looking for unique, handcrafted items."
How is taking away Handmade specific categories and subcategories in navigation when customer browsing for Handmade items qualify as making it easier to connect customers to Handmade items, especially during Q4 when a lot more buyers are browsing for handcrafted gifts?
It has been said that HM team is working to reinstate Handmade specific categories and subcategories appear in navigation, but I'm afraid when or if it's accomplished, it'd be too late for this holiday shopping season, and Handmade sellers' loss, it's also going to negatively effect Amazon's bottom-line too. Maybe that will motivate somebody to fix this problem ASAP?

This is just the newest post which exactly echoes the voices of all other sellers posting here with the exact same issue. This has been ongoing for quite some time.

Amazon does not care. They ignore our posts. They wear rose colored glasses and pretend nothing is wrong. We are hidden behind a private forum wall where no one but those that are drowning can see. It is truly sad how this is destroying businesses.
