WHY SUBSCRIBE TO WHOLESALE TED?

Hey there I am Sarah (aka Ted). My goal is to help new entrepreneurs grow & scale a business that is right for THEM!

Yes - the business that is right for THEM. Because I believe that time is the most valuable thing we have, and that we should spend it doing things that we love: and what I love may be different to what you love. Which is why on this channel I share:

* Examples & case studies of businesses that I enjoy (such as Print On Demand ecommerce businesses) and sharing my tips & strategies I've learned along the way.
* Examples & case studies of other businesses that entrepreneurs love running (even if I personally wouldn't find it fun myself!)
* Plus a sprinkle of entrepreneurial motivation thrown in too!

I hope my actionable content can help you: whether you're running your own online business, or are in the process of building one, and want some tactical advice to help you along the way. If that is you, subscribe today! 🔥

What do you think - is Ideogram a threat to Midjourney? 🤔

[AutumnStormB]

I really enjoy your news videos. It’s hard to catch everything going on in the field, especially for those of us for who this isn’t a full time gig.

[Hattiem]

I really like these updates/news. Keeps me up to date and even just watching a new video from you on the regular keeps me motivated to continue working on my store.

[mathieul]

As an artist, it sucks that AI art exist but at the same time it's great for visualizing ideas instantly and brainstorming 😅

[KimberlyLetsGo]

Thanks for doing these news videos. With so much going on, it's really hard to keep up to date.

[danimotherofchickens]

That's ornament sells like that because it's personalized ....

[maikymadnesskreation]

A similar controversy and debate with Andy Serky wanting award for his performance as Gollum but when the academy couldn't pin point what was his performance and what was done with the animators (by the way was a lot) it was denied of the award

[SweetLotusDreams]

I am working on some of those ornaments but I am in the UK and those Printify ceramic ornaments are not available in the UK. Also, the metal one that is available in the UK is currently out of stock. I have found an alternative supplier.

[RandomButBeautiful]

Ideogram forces you to use a google account, that's not exactly a privacy focused option ...

[everythingleisureandlifestyle]

Thank you for the news! Really love these regular POD news updates!

[SpeedbirdHeavy]

I'm steering clear of AI for now. Great to hear about the new acrylic ornament 😀 that should get over some previous issues with print quality on ornaments. Acrylic prints really well.

[TatianaBalashova]

Thank you Sarah! Love your news videos ))

[arleej]

I loved getting updates in the news! I had followed the copyright case, but lost track. It was great to get all this info in one place! Thanks!

I've had quite different experiences with AI... After months of testing, I did the last test... I put 5 different generated images and one of my own graphic in the same niche. And you know what? I only sell my own image, while five generated images just sit there and attract zero attention. I really don't know why!
But I also have to say that I really enjoyed drawing my own image while I missed out on all the fun with the AI generated images. Then I thought, wait a minute - if I wanted to communicate with the machine by writing the text, I'd become a programmer! So I'm back to my old ways, having fun and drawing, the numbers are fine, and the life is good again. Sorry for the longer text, I just had to write my own experiences! Oh, and I don't hate anyone. I'm happy with my choice! 😁

[NewEnglandArt]

As a human illustrator I just draw my own designs. I encourage people to do something that taps into the skill they have and do something they truly enjoy, then the money will follow

[chubbychaserizu]

I love it, Sarah. This is excellent stuff. Thank you for sharing.

[thomasrendleman]

Hello Sara, I have coloring books that I wanted to have for print on demand, however none of the print on demand companies want to print it because it has a link on the bottom of each page. The coloring books are going to be used to get leads and without a link it’s pointless to produce. Thoughts???

[micpic]

Thanks Sara for your work! My 2 cents: I have used AI to generate images for print on demand services. It is extremely rare to have an AI photo give me what I want without significant changes that need to be made. I always begin with a “finished” image in my mind before I even start. It will then often take 10 or 12 times of revising descriptions before I can get a usable image. Even with the exact same description, the results can vary a lot and are never duplicated. I then photo shop the resulting “good” image sometimes changing colors, shapes, cloning certain areas to delete objects, or even paste in new ones. The result after a few hours of work is an image close to what I envisioned in my mind when my “creativity” started. Exactly where is the creativity part that is AI’s? It sounds like my words and the image I envisioned are "human" creativity. Many times I cannot get an acceptable image after dozens of tries and I give up on the idea altogether. Post AI efforts are copyrightable, but not the AI image I had to revise because the machine is not human? Neither is my artist drawing tablet human, but I told it what to do, and if it didn’t come out to my liking I change it. How about my original thought? My own designs and images I have made without AI, were discerned by me looking at images or real things over my lifetime giving me a memory library of experience to draw from. This includes say a great photo my aunt took in Hawaii twenty years ago. I have never been to Hawaii, so I have to envision what the beach looks like based upon her picture, and thousands of others I have seen. It is protected by copyright to her, so I can’t “copy” it lest I be a criminal. I can draw something close and put it on a t-shirt though. It is “changed” but I didn’t ask her permission or pay her money. AI does the same thing, only the AI is a tad faster than me on my tablet tracing a beach picture. Although AI has never experienced lying on a tropical beach, it is great at drawing one with an upside down palm tree, or a fish with four eyes. I could copy that one, but the beach part might be copyrighted, hopefully not the tree? I’ve never seen an upside down palm tree, so it might be o.k. - if it was my idea. The fish might be questionable. Keep up the great work! ❤

I don't know. All this AI-generated stuff and millions of people all trying to sell the same thing leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

[cjgroove]

There are a ton of AI generated mockups on Etsy for T-shirts, etc. You can tell they are AI. I guess some POD sellers don't seem to mind, even though they are not really the product you would get if ordering the shirt, etc. Most of the time they don't look nearly the same. Often, I think the ones with people in them look kind of creepy and unrealistic.
