"Listen don't waste your time with POD services, instead give me your money for my course" - There I summed up your video for everyone.

[nooksweetco]

POD is a smart MVP stage for most, it should not be a permanent stage for your business. It allows you to test a business idea with min investing in printers, staff, logistics, liability.... If your business idea works, then you transition to your own warehouse to handle all shipping yourself. Almost all successful print on demand transition to self print.

If most people start with your recommendation of buying a printer, many will fail and lose money without testing their idea.

Good idea if your hands on type and dont mibd all the hassle of running your own POD game. I still prefer POD since I take vacations alot and fir long periods of time, hence I work for myself and POD allows me to be more versatile as I need to. I dont need to make a million $$ just need to live comfortably and put food on my family's table. God Bless thx fir sharing. 🙏

Excellent video. Another half step, have a third party print your transfers. Example would be 613 originals or Ninja Transfers only equipment needed would be a heat press. Buy the printer only when the business grows into it.

[koolmodee]

I recommend NOT doing this. I have been doing print on demand since 2013 and I am mildly successful. I also have a home office with just sitting there collecting dust. Doing it yourself is just too time-consuming and labor intensive for too little a return. Maybe .01% will be successful and good for them, but don’t give false hope to the masses.

Great if you have the time and space to store all the shirts and printer as well as print them yourself. The lower profit margins are worth it for the convenience of someone else doing the work for you.

[melaniekehaya]

Thing with this is many people just don’t have the time to do this, you’re also very tied down. POD you can do this from anywhere in the world. You forget to mention the cons. Need to also balance your time taken to do all this and the price of the printer and ink. Rather stick with POD personally.

[DustyTeachesArt]

Anther alertantive is get your tshirt blanks but you can buy DTF transfers form transfer printers. Use thier gang sheets to keep your prices margins down.

Everything is work - no easy way - depends on what u want to spend ur time on -

[LMCEK]

Printing and shipping all your own products as a side hustle is a full time job. As a reseller, I speak from experience. Factor in what your TIME is worth before creating yourself a blue collar assembly line job in your basement.

[dawidblachowski]

True, but the PoD business is mostly passive and localization free as all you need is your laptop and internet access.

[cathychats]

Both business models have their pros and cons

[mamabtinytreasures]

Just found you on youtube. You are super clear, seem super honest and I really appreciate your experiences bad and good.

[googooproof]

Great video Steve. So many things that I was unaware of for creating a t shirt company. Your insight is so valuable and helpful working through business ideas.

[jayiam]

The reason people start businesses online is to free up their time also. I don’t want to be a tshirt printer personally.

[conniecornsilk]

Wow too much for me, to learn all the printers! I'm glad you can do it, great alternative.

[lovebirdslane]

This is an honest video. That is amazing these days. We have determine through testing the same results and can confirm that the information is in fact true. There are other white toner laser printers on the market for less. Do your research. Thank you for such an honest strait forward information filled with useful information!

[OlderWomenRock]

What I don’t understand with these POD companies is why they charge such high prices for their Ts
I used to buy Australian made cotton Ts for $5
The quality was very good

[bobbimae]

Now, I have another option to scale my shirts. Thanks for the info. This one is a keeper.
