You're absolutely right Shimmy, so many people love having a wide variety of t-shirts to express their personalities, and people can't really wear the same ones day after day, so they keep buying more and more, unlike mugs or hoodies or signs, so as long as you can come up with great designs and draw in the t-shirt loving customers, you're in business!

Hi shimmy Morris, i really like your transparency and honesty

[marmaladoe]

I think tote bags are great too. Where I live, single use bags (plastic and paper) are banned in many areas. I think this trend will be happening in more places for environmental concerns.

We have dozens of tote bags because we have no other choice.
When we go grocery shopping one tote is never enough.

I know families where the couple each have their own car and keep a stack in each car.

Also great to use for going to the beach or for bringing snacks to kids sports, ect.

Tote bags are the type of thing you easily accumulate since they get lost in the mess of your trunk and closets and they go through wear and tear, so people buy more.

Anyway, if you're not selling only totes you should at least be offering your t shirt designs also on totes. It's the same dimensions, really, so it's a missed opportunity if you don't, imo.

Good one, Shimmy! Thanks for making this so damn clear. T-Shirts first and always. Whatever... second.

This is a truly insightful video. Thanks for making it Shimmy. I'm actually quite surprised that I haven't come across similar videos. Most youtubers in the POD space love to talk about what POD service you should use, where to sell, etc. But the kind of merch you want to sell is really important, and I never thought about the things you said before seeing this.

You should do a video together with Joe, as he always says NOT to sell tshirt. Would love to see you both defending your visions in a friendly debate.

This is why I appreciate you. When I heard people was selling stickers, the first thing I asked was so buying stickers and why lol

In America, hoodies are just as popular as Tees. Embroidery is a thing now too. If you're in high-school, you're gonna want an awesome looking Tee on the first day of school.

My husband has SO MANY t-shirts, maybe even TOO many! I told him that whenever he brings home one new T, he has to get rid of TWO. I do the laundry, fold and put away. I ran out of room for all his Ts and ended up stacking them on the blanket chest until he thinned out his collection so they'd all fit in the drawers.

Issue with T-Shirts is the saturated markets. Not everyone can set up a shopify and make the site, drive ads, do socials etc, Amazon is almost impossible to get into which leaves eBay and Etsy where the margins are rubbish. SO suggesting t-shirts to newbies .... not so sure.

[patrickribouet]

Hey Shimmy, just been made redundant in the UK. Mortgage, kids, and an income to replace really quickly. My two Etsy stores are slowly growing (digital products - clipart and backdrops). Shopify POD sounds appealing, but I think will be slow burn as well. Any quick tips on getting into freelance/Fiverr in the immediate short term (Photoshop, Canva, Midjourney skills etc)?

[rashipp]

Great advice!! That's my choice also🥰 Thank you for such great video content an not alot of BS! April😊😊

[kritikasriram]

Thanks for this Shimmy, few lightbulb moments here!! :)

[shannonedwards]

I had subscribed, but YouTube unsubscribed me. So here I am, resubscribing.

[HardCandyJay]

I think t-shirts are a good start to just get your designs seen on your website because its searched so much, especially if its the style or niche the person was looking for, they can end up looking at your other items

[Shopgirl]

I would subscribe a second time if it were possible. 😂😂

[takijeden]

in the videos when you check quality of all print platform (it was 3 y ago?) and next was with washing video, Printify was not a good option. What changed? Printful was better and Amazon also.

[JS-hbqu]

great vid. Random question: Have you noticed amazon randomly putting a sale price on your merch listings yesterday/today? all mine have a 17% off sale which is wiping my margin!

[PERSONAL-ONLY]

Tees are great as they serve 2 purposes. 1. As an undergarment. 2. As way to show off a message or image.

[daveymichael]

Good video. I'm able to print white tees at home with my current set up but I'm looking to expand into colours with a POD company in UK. I used to print with vinyl on coloured tees but I think vinyl looks poor in comparison to other print methods that are available now.

My worry is the issue with returns regarding sizing issues and other factors. Examples could be the printed design not being the correct size when compared to that on the mock up. In some cases prints are not positioned correctly, ie too low or too high or not central. I like to have control over where exactly I position my prints. I feel quality control might be something that is overlooked in some cases. Have you experienced these issues?
