Starting Print on Demand From Scratch in 2024 (how i'd do it)

——————––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

Thinking of doing many things affiliate marketing, POD, KDP, eCommerce, but end up of doing nothing just watching videos and get overwhelming, how to be focus on one thing

Not seeing a link for the spreadsheet?

Amazon turned me down without even seeing my stuff. And I publish on KDP. So saying to just go with Amazon is just a bit disingenous. So many videos out there saying "just do this and make millions" that gloss right over the tricky bits and just list the obvious.

I found you to be most helpful and straight forward, I am new to all of the online stuff. (Main business is Media Coverage for concerts with a focus of disability inclusion at concerts) I wanted my own merch and then realized the print on demand thing was an option too so I've started adding products to the store that is more broader. Only a few days in, no sales, but I mean thats 100% expected. I started it all in Jan of 2024 and so far have a decent following for my niche, but im still small time so I'm not expecting anything crazy

Id love some updated videos on marketing, via paid and free/organic. Also tips on the best ways to post to social media sites etc would be nice.

Thanks for all that you do!

Good afternoon, do you have any specific marketing how-to videos? If you do may I have the link? Thanks.

Hi Simmy. Can you pls post the link for the spreadsheet you mentioned on your video.

If i get 200 dollars per month with Pod business it's very good for me as a part time income, I don't have much time . Thankyou for this video 🎉

While studying a lot of information out there and checking out AI and regular templates, I see a heavy percentage look to be very dark, heavy, retro-looking designs, as if they were created by gamers and those with a heavily masculine influence. I understand those may have done well, and more power to anyone using them. My question is: are they shown in such high numbers in Kittl templates and perhaps other platforms because that's a strong trend, or because most of the template contributors have done those so well and favor that style? Thanks!

I can't find the link to the spreadsheet, what am I missing?

What I think might be a bit of a problem is that the current fashion trend is towards plain fabrics and clothing. If designers could come up with a new innovation to start a new trend, this could kick start more interest and sales.

Another great video, thanks! If you were starting over again in 2024 and Printify Pop Up was not an option who would you be most likelyt to go with? I am trying to avoid Etsy and Amazon. I would love to go with Printify Pop Up but they are not available in the UK. Printify does not interact with customers so any questions/returns etc would have to go through my business. Whereas, Printify Pop Up handles all the customer service, provides the website and everything (can you tell I'm a bit gutted?). I just have no clue where to turn or what the best option would be
Any suggestions or advice?

Awesome background. Pro videography tip: if you want to REALLY take advantage of different camera angles, look at the side camera. Otherwise you're talking to us then suddenly talking to someone else... figuratively speaking. Besides, looking at the side camera is also more engaging.

I enjoyed your video.
I know nothing about creating designs. Do you have any recommendations for learning how to design and what to use?

[hebbiederman]

Thanks for another motivating video! Consistency is the hardest for me because of time constraints. Your suggestion of 3 designs a day seems like an achievable goal and not overwhelming.

Anyone else here sell on Etsy? Did you get the survey? Might be closing down my shop over that....

Hey Shimmy! New to watching your channel. Thoughts on POD canvas art?

I've been doing lots of research trying to help my girlfriend flex her graphics design experience and I feel like canvas art has a opportunity to do that.

She's just getting bored with her 9 to 5; always another marketing brochure, product placement picture, etc.

[SpeedbirdHeavy]

Personally I would never share any aspect of my POD business with family or friends. They either don't get it or their feedback is subjective.

Hmmm, where is the cheat sheet guide?

[KBCallahan]

still no link for the spreadsheet - and meh video, sorry - how do you write good descriptions for amazon, etc. - more detail please
