Great video. We're only 2 days into 2023 and I already made my first RB sale. It's a great way to start off the year. Thank you for making these videos. I am hoping for a bigger year with better designs and higher sales.
I heard there are lots of the words/phrases we use so commonly and frequently in our day to day life are actually copyrighted for POD. I am sure you've already known some of them. It'd be nice if you could make a video about that, you know, a video like "the most shocking copyrighted words/phrases you never expected!!!!!" Again, thanks for all the fabulous videos you put out and Happy New Year!
That is a great idea. I think it is ridiculous that you can trademark words like colors, such as Pink, or months, such as October. I was shocked at " World's Greatest Dad," and "Girl Dad," and "Just A Girl."
@@MissMolly3377 They are like land mines for POD content creators and, unfortunately, they are everywhere! Not only is it a big No No to use in the designs, one could also get into trouble by having them in the descriptions. That's why I hope more experienced content creators can share what they have learned over the years, and I am sure they can increase their RUclips viewership for making videos like that as there is no similar video out there. Anyway, thanks for "Second That", and who knows, perhaps "Second That" might be also someone's copyrighted PROPERTY already!!
The great thing about these sites is that you don't need a mock up like you would on Etsy. I won't venture out yet outside of Etsy until I make sales. Placeit seems to be the main outlet in terms of value for mockups. Thanks Juna
Thank you, Juna, I love all of your content! They are all helpful, looking forward to a new Canva t-shirt design tutorial! It gives me so much inspiration and thought me so much!☺
I feel stupid having used Merch for over a year and not realizing that you could reduce the size and or move the design around the shirt! I always learn so much from you Juna!
Hey Juna, another great video! Can you buy your own shirts (walking billboard kinda thing) without being accused of false sales and compromising your account?
Hi Juna. Can u do please a video how u manage yours design. Where u keep all design, keywords, and description. Excel ? Notion? Maybe u already have made a video, sent a link. Thanks
Thank you Juna. Happy New Year! If you were rejected by Amazon, can you reapply? I am not sure if they had changed any rules about this or not. Thank you.
Hi Juna - all of your videos are so helpful. I have a really basic question. I know it is better to design for the darker colors but do you also upload the same design in colors for that would work for lighter color shirts?
No... you get paid a percentage when someone buys a product.... for example if a shirt sells on Amazon for $20 you will get about $5 for the sale and Amazon will keep the rest.
Detour Shirts Juna ? I uploaded 1 design on tee spring about 3-4 weeks ago and uploaded 3 on teepublic about a week ago with no advertisement or shared link. on teepublic I noticed that I don't see my designs publicly on teepublic website but only on my account. today I went back and changed main tag and supporting tag names.
Hi! Why nobody is talking about taxes? How to apply for a TIN or VAT number? Can you still sell without having one? For example, you are new and don't make sakes yet, should you still get it? Like it doesn't exist x)
Oh.... so true... I'll see if I can make a video about it... the tough part is that I have an international audience so taxes are different everywhere and I don't even know all the ins and outs of US tax laws.... it's very confusing
Juna, question... if you go onto Kittl, create a logo design, then upload to your three POD sites, is that logo/design protected as your own? Or can another POD seller go on there and "borrow, steal or take" your logo and sell it for themselves? Thanks!
If you use the designs on Kittl as is.....chances are that other people will do the same. I would suggest you use the Kittl templates as a starting point and make something different....yes someone could do the same with KIttl and use it too but chances are greater that the one you made is different and unique.
@@DetourShirts Ok, cool. Another reason I ask is because I create designs in Affinity and those can take time. I'd hate to do all the work and then someone else snatch my artwork after putting it on a POD site. But even in Kittl or Canva if I completely change a template, can someone take it?? Curious if TeePublic and RedBubble monitors that stuff??
Thanks Juna for your videos. I am a total beginner in this.I would like to make you a question. Can same design be updated in different print on demand shops?. My Redbubble's shop was cancelled and I still don´t know why. All designs I updated were created by me. Thanks!
Happy New Year! Thank you for the video, I find your video's very helpful. Out of interest, please could you tell me why you have a 9 to 5 job, can you not earn enough money with the T-shirt sales? Thank you.
You definitely can make enough.....I actually make more money with Print on Demand than I do with my 9-5 job... my 9-5 is for more for security, for being with friends, for the 401k, it's a different creative outlet and I have great insurance.
Hi, quick question for the t-shirt designs am I able to make two pngs and put them on one product. One png for my logo and one for my design. Or does it have to be one png to work.
Are you talking about a logo on the front and a design on the back? Most Print on Demand sites don't let you do that but you can do that with Printful or Printify I believe.
Thank you, Juna! I love watching your tutorials as they are more thorough than most of the other videos I find about POD. Was wondering if each POD platform has specific dimensions for each design? (For example, if you are using Canva to make your designs).
It's mainly based on luck.... but you can try at different times of the month...you could try building your portfolio of designs on RedBubble or TeePublic... you could try doing something different the next time you apply
Hi, just a doubt. We are creating designs putting all our efforts. Is chatgpt a problem for us? It is creating artworks within seconds and they are highly artistic. What we the real creators going to do? What is our value?😢
Chatgpt is still just a tool.... robots are not taking over our jobs in this sense.... it's like saying Procreate is taking away jobs from traditional painters... people still have to be creative and figure out what sell.... just because it can make art doesn't mean it is making the right art.... don't worry about chatgpt... worry on what you can do and focus on the positives
Hi Juna, i just would like to ask you about the dimensions to be used for all products as when i changed the greeting card as your last video for dimensions i received this message: Poster: Image is too small. Art Print: Image is too small. Canvas Print: Image is too small. Framed Print: Image is too small. Photographic Print: Image is too small. Metal Print: Image is too small. so what dimension to be used for post card and will be ok with the above? thanks in advance Rabab
@@DetourShirts im new to this but I did want to make a giant print on the back and a little logo on the top left corner. Quick question what is printful?
Printful is a print service you can connect to Etsy or Shopify to sell print on demand products...... you don't need that for RedBubble, TeePublic or Amazon merch on demand
detailed video on merch my amazon acceptance. I tried once and got rejected. Syep by step detailed video and what kind of artwork to share while applying on merch by amazon?
I have an amazon by merch, just didn't really make any sells, is there a way to level up quickly, or do you have a video that can help me, thanks Happy New Year btw.
Thank you for your amazing videos. Am a newbie. Signed up on redbubble uploaded my store and my account was ban in less than five days with no reason. I appealed yet no response. Can I reapply on redbubble. Kindly guide me on what to do. Thank you.

Very true! No mockups means more time to design
Nice idea on the list of shirts to create. Downloading now! 🏃
Awesome! Thank you!
Thank you, Juna, I love all of your content! They are all helpful, looking forward to a new Canva t-shirt design tutorial! It gives me so much inspiration and thought me so much!☺
Coming soon! Thanks for the comment
I feel stupid having used Merch for over a year and not realizing that you could reduce the size and or move the design around the shirt! I always learn so much from you Juna!
It wasn't always like that... I believe they made the change last year.
how to put the image right on mugs? If you could explain in another video, it would be great. Thanks
Great suggestion! I'll do a mug video soon
Hey Juna, another great video! Can you buy your own shirts (walking billboard kinda thing) without being accused of false sales and compromising your account?
Yes... you can buy as many t-shirts from your own shop... the POD don't care... in fact they will probably like it.
Thank You Again, Juna! All your videos, are reasistic, Straight Up Front, Down to Earth and Practical! Much Appreciated, Sir! Cheers, Brad H
You are very welcome
Thanks for the great tips, Juno. I appreciate it!
My pleasure!
Hi Juna. Can u do please a video how u manage yours design. Where u keep all design, keywords, and description. Excel ? Notion? Maybe u already have made a video, sent a link. Thanks
Thanks for the idea! I keep it really simple but I can do a video.... I'm not the most organized person in that aspect
Happy New Year Juna, keep up the good work ! 👍👍
Thank you! You too!
Thank you Juna. Happy New Year! If you were rejected by Amazon, can you reapply? I am not sure if they had changed any rules about this or not. Thank you.
Yes you can!
Another great video...Thanks Juna!!... well can you please tell which app to use for transparent backgrounds which is free of cost.
You can use Photobpea.... I have a few videos about it
Hi Juna - all of your videos are so helpful. I have a really basic question. I know it is better to design for the darker colors but do you also upload the same design in colors for that would work for lighter color shirts?
Yes, definitely... if you have the space I would do it and I personally do it all the time.
Do you have to pay to get your product produced?
No... you get paid a percentage when someone buys a product.... for example if a shirt sells on Amazon for $20 you will get about $5 for the sale and Amazon will keep the rest.
Detour Shirts Juna ?

Good luck... keep adding more and more designs... you may see some sales after 3-6 months

Yes you can if those designs are yours. You can add your designs to all of the different POD sites. Not sure why your RedBubble account was canceled.
How do you organize your designs? To have each one in a certain size for each website is complicated hehe
Easy.... I just make one size for t-shirts for every platform... it is 4500 px x 5400 px

Thank You for the video, can you go over the new features for the updated Affinity 2
Yes... I'm planning on it
great video. just wondering do u have to stay with a nich or do all? thanks
You can pick different niches each time if you want
Let's go was your signature. Should stick with it.
I was trying to see if anyone noticed.... thanks for the comment... I might put it back in
@@DetourShirts yeh. Again think it become a signature thing for you.
I'll try it on the next one
Hi Juna, how are you? Do you have any tips on how to come up with a good name for beginners? all the cool names are already in use 😅
Names for your shop? A mashup is always fun... two words that don't normally go together can be fun
Thank you for helping us in pod.
Can you just till me why tepublic doesn't show my designs.
Sorry I wish I knew but I would just keep trying they may show up later
Do you recommend using printify or printful and linked to an Etsy account for POD?
I don't do Etsy anymore... but when I did I used Printful and it was great.... I never tried printify so I can't tell you the difference... sorry
Curious why you don’t sell on Etsy anymore? Fewer sales than the other three platforms?
I’m new here. Why did you leave Etsy?
Should I use a different bank account for selling on Redbubble and Amazon? Or is it okay to just use my personal account?
Use the same.... I don't think it matters
Right on ya,all
Right on... thanks for the comment
I cant understand how can i sell tshirt design in etsy . If we want to print that or not.? I want to learn but yt members doesnt tell full 💔🥺😒
When I was on Etsy I had to connect Printful to Etsy so that when an order came in Printful would print my shirt
@@DetourShirts thank a lot
After checking the trademark, if my phrase is not already trademarked, do I need to trademark my phrase?
You can but I wouldn't
Thank you, Juna! I love watching your tutorials as they are more thorough than most of the other videos I find about POD. Was wondering if each POD platform has specific dimensions for each design? (For example, if you are using Canva to make your designs).
Yes they suggest different dimensions but 4500px x 5400px will work for all tshirt sizes on all platforms
@@DetourShirts Thank you so much!! 😊
loving your awesome content! for the absolute beginner..... should I try redbubble or teepublic first? or does it not matter? thank you
Depends on your content.... take a while to look at what each site shows as their top sellers and see which on fits your style best.
Please provide tips for reapplying to merch by amazon if you were rejected:(
It's mainly based on luck.... but you can try at different times of the month...you could try building your portfolio of designs on RedBubble or TeePublic... you could try doing something different the next time you apply
Great. Thank you sir.
Most welcome!

@@DetourShirts Thank you sir. It is highly motivating. I will focus on my positives.
do you have a video on how to get accepted on merch amazon. how to fill the form. What it is good to write and not to do
I don't... it's more of a matter of luck...keep trying
Please add back in "Letss Go!" and the little intro animation. It's not the same without it.
Thanks for the comment.... I was trying something different.... I'll try it with the new intro
Hi Juna,
i just would like to ask you about the dimensions to be used for all products as when i changed the greeting card as your last video for dimensions i received this message: Poster: Image is too small.
Art Print: Image is too small.
Canvas Print: Image is too small.
Framed Print: Image is too small.
Photographic Print: Image is too small.
Metal Print: Image is too small.
so what dimension to be used for post card and will be ok with the above?
thanks in advance
Rabab
So if you want it to fit on all products on RedBubble than RedBubble suggests using 7632x6480
Can either of them do a design in the front and back if the shirt?
Great question... I typically only do the front or back.... if you sell on Shopify or Etsy with Printful I believe you can do front and back
@@DetourShirts im new to this but I did want to make a giant print on the back and a little logo on the top left corner. Quick question what is printful?
Printful is a print service you can connect to Etsy or Shopify to sell print on demand products...... you don't need that for RedBubble, TeePublic or Amazon merch on demand
Planning of 2023 is good for tier 1000 and above but for tier 10 and 25 is not good because all the niches are satisfied.
It gets harder to be in tier 10 every year but I think you can still get 10 sales by being creative and standing out
Very usefull vedio 👍👍
Thanks a lot... I'm glad it's useful
detailed video on merch my amazon acceptance. I tried once and got rejected. Syep by step detailed video and what kind of artwork to share while applying on merch by amazon?

I have an amazon by merch, just didn't really make any sells, is there a way to level up quickly, or do you have a video that can help me, thanks Happy New Year btw.
You can always buy your own shirts.... then give them away as gifts.... Valentine's Day is coming up
nice
Thanks
Great video! Is that a new intro?
Yes, it is! Thank for noticing
My merch on demand got rejected 2 or 3 time what can I do I am from india
Keep trying... try different time of the month... try designing more stuff on RedBubble for references... change it up
@@DetourShirts yeah I will try my best for sure. thankyou
