This is actually a compliment...
I'm glad to see how much you've changed your style from a few years ago (when I couldn't believe a lot of what you were saying.)
Thank you I think haha
from all the creator of POD you are the best of all, great content! thank you!!
Wow, thanks!
This month I had 2 bad days...only sold 2 shirts one day and yesterday..being Sunday..only sold 3...I know sales are down for a lot of shops but then I look at the other shops..they are doing 300+ sales per day 😩
don't compare yourself to others. Focus on yourself. Bad days happen to everyone. We had a very slow Sunday as well
Sunday was good for me... i sold my first tshirt :)
Just try to keep it going, 3 sales is better than nothing, i have a question, do you sell on a specific platform like etsy or do you run your own store ? like your own website ?
Like the vast majority of POD'ers, I only see 2 or 3 sales a year so... you know, personally I'd be totally ecstatic about 2 or 3 sales in a day! 😅
I'm honestly amazed people buy new stuff this way .... I was always a thrift shop dude
the most important thing in every business is honesty , that's why i love this channel shimmy and the truth without make up or lifting keep it real dude
Thank you so much
Thanks Shimmy! Love your content.. i just started my store couple of weeks back.. and boy it takes so much patience to find that winner :P
you've got this!!!
One thing I do know. You better tread slowly into ads if you don't know how they work. There are a lot of variables to keep track of, and if you don't know them, you'll be chasing your tail while flushing money.
Isn't it a sad state of affairs when honesty is seem as a "breath of fresh air"?
Love the honesty 👍
Thank you!
Great video with lots of good points!!
Thank you!!!
hi! i am from Bangladesh. i liked your video. they are full of truth. usually, people do not like harsh truths. they like sweet lies. don't give up. true will pay some day...
Thanks for your authentic honesty. I am going for the branding and hopefully my own multi vendor marketplace for custom POD products also. Exciting times :)
good luck!!
I'm a.powerful man and I. Self control and do what benefits and evolves me
Question,
How long do your products usually sell for? A month? A week? A year?? How often do ecom sellers keep a product up for do they have a spike in sales when the ads get seen and then eventually drop off? Are there some products that stay and some products are one hit wonders?
Thanks if you answer
I would like to have you talk about HOW some of these people make it to the thousands of dollar range. Do they market world wide? Do they market just to two countries? Do they sign-in to the Facebook groups in there countries and advertise? Do they advertise in each of the countries there selling too? I would love a more detailed conversation if possible. Thank you so much.
Sure thing. For those doing Amazon. They’re in a high enough tier where they’re able to have a large amount of designs and maybe even run Amazon ads. If it’s Shopify then they’d be running traffic via Facebook ads or organic social media
now the set gets more accurate... last thing is to fix the gap on the right side. Slide the table a little bit to your left / our right and you have a cool set. Cool Neon Sign by the way
Thanks 🙏
I get annoyed when people say its easy. I mean not only is it hard to get sales, it requires quite a lot of work and time to get prints finished and posted online, if you are putting any type of effort at all into making decent prints, and getting any type of meaningful volume out there. I have some friends with actual jobs that "work" remotely from home, somehow making good money while they are just sitting and chatting on discord all day long and posting memes. I work way harder than them with my print on demand "side hustle" and make way less money.
Anytime a popular seller says not to do something, its almost always to erase competition
Please make a video about marketing
I have one coming in t out Monday hopefully.
Growing on socials with POD without ads is extremely hard unless you are already an influencer.
Hello everyone, don't let this failure discourage you. Keep working hard and also watch other people who are successful. You will see the results in the future. Remember, Q4 is coming, so sales will be high. Take inspiration from successful people and let the losers talk.
really helpful video, instead of starting to try and sell merch, build a solid following, then try it.
Nah
Alongside social traffic I think newsletters are worthwhile as well
yes they're good. They come with emails... i have a video coming out about the pillars of marketing for print on demand
do you ever utilize kittl? I know you have a video about the various design products. I've been using it for a few months now and, perhaps i'm doing it wrong, but i'm seeing more success w/ just things from CF & various fonts I've downloaded.
Another great video thanks, and well edited.
thank you
What's your opinion on the Fourth Wall & Printful combination?
I have this design that I have reproduced in a mug, sticker, and tshirt. Etsy ads show me that absolutely no one wants it. While Facebook ads shows that it is performing well, people are sharing, liking it and clicking on it. i just got one sale though. I am definitely opening a Shopify store, Etsy is too limiting.
Thank you. ❤
You're welcome 😊
Hey mate. Love your channel. Heres a possible video topic. Ive made a bunch of designs, im making the site and next week ill be going live for the first time ever..... and thats so scary. Actually hitting the go button to the public.
How to go live for a new starter, what to expect. Eg, should i buy a sample of EVERY product ive created??
Then anpther topic... money. Separate account?
How do you deal with taxes in different countries? In australia we have a 10% goods tax on top (i assume your vat). But if im selling to us market i dont think wr cjarge that.
Etc etc
Hope this has given you some new topic ideas for your channel. :)
That is a cool idea. No you don't need to buy a sample of every single product. But thank you, lots of ideas. We cover a lot of this in the community as I try to keep videos more lighthearted on the channel.
Sometimes try showing us real shopify results while refreshing you're screen .How can we know if the 21 K .Honestly this is just my opinion when you have the real results everyone will be believe and listen . After all it is you're desire to see people succeed in their printvon demand stores
they are real results... you can follow my series where I break down this new store, go over all the costs, the profit, the ads, etc.... Sorry you don't believe me. Not much I can do there
Hey @@shimmymorris1 just a refresh wont harm you :)
How in the world can you make 17.20 profit?? Can you make a video about that?
@@DeutscheStrande-gl5xi sure!
I’ve spoken about it in past videos but can make more
In a video you said you would make a video about ai in POD, I would be very interested in that, because I built a nice ai system to make designs and listing. It would be interesting to see your opinion
I’ve got a few ai videos coming out in the next month ☺️☺️
Your ai system sounds very cool!
@@shimmymorris1 The basic idea is to train a ChatGPT Chat to create the perfect Prompt for a T-shirt Design
@@FrankfurtKnabe oh nice... we may be working on something like this too...
Gary linkov? 😮
Do you know any unique wood product supplier ?
Do you check Merchize? I saw they have a lot of wooden products
sorry i do not
Another one I hear, from the likes of Joe Robert: don't sell on Etsy because there's too much competition, how will anyone find your stuff among 9 million other sellers? Ignoring the fact that some 500 million shoppers visit Etsy every month! And as if there isn't a boatload of competition out there in the wild world of Meta ads! 😂😂
Haha 😂
@@shimmymorris1 he just loaded a typical example this morning! A couple of the points he makes are valid, but most of them are second-hand misinformation. He's never sold on Etsy in his life, as his videos show only too well. Can't tell a keyword from a niche even!
✔️
So you think having accounts on social media and promoting your shop is really effective?
for sure!! i don't think just posting pictures of your designs works though
@@shimmymorris1 i mean taking it like a serious content creation with some promotions here and there
Full of FAKE Gurus out there. Now that I see the true picture after watching your videos.
Could you PLEASE do a complete video on POD with any Printify and Etsy or Shopify from start to end? It would be really valuable to many of your viewers ...
it's in the works :D
