YAY!! Perfect timing and Perfect content! Thank you SO much Shawna! Our precious dog's name was Mali. We had her 15 years and this past January she had been gone 1 year. I still look for her everyday. To say we miss her is such an understatement! Tucker is adorable! ENJOY!
Shawna. Girl. Thank you SO MUCH for putting this video together. I think it’s like the 4th one I’ve watched in group listings because I’m so afraid of screwing it up, but it’s the first one I’ve seen that shows different options on how to do it! And definitely the first I’ve seen to offer different variations on the same design/niche to get more visibility on those SEOs. Super smart. New subscriber here and loving your content, found you through Cassiy. My doggo’s name is Rudy!! Have a great day.
Hey there! I am so glad you enjoyed this one! I love love love Cassiy! I am so glad you found me through her! And give Rudy a big pat on the head from me!
My little Yorkie was named Coco. He was with us for 17 years and loved boating and girls. He thought he was 6 ft tall, 😅. We miss him! Thank you so much for your giving heart. This process for all the variations is a lot but you broke it down into smaller bits. I can do this! I especially appreciate your tip about processing as you get the orders....brilliant!!! Thanks again!
That is awesome! I am so glad you found this helpful! And I am sending your sweet Coco hugs, kisses and doggy pats in heaven! I bet your loving home made his life rich and full!
This made me laugh! The fourth grade teacher in me just loves exaggerative language!!! I am so glad you found this one helpful! I hope it saves you so much time!
Thanks Shawna! I’m diving in head first on group listings and this tutorial has been a huge help! I especially love that there are multiple ways to do this! ❤🤩💫
You are a real inspiration. I have been "starting" my pod budiness for months, learning everything i needed to know so it would be perfect. You have allowed me to see, failure is just a bump, nothing is ever perfect, and the only way to start is to start. Thank you
Oreo and Ice Omg, so much information!!! So grateful to have it!!! I'm going to take it very slowly. maybe 9 variations at a time until... well, we'll see. Thank you!!!
Hi Shawnna!!! My Cat's name is Nutmeg. I was afraid about Group Listings but now after watching this tutorial I am ready to start my first one. Great Teacher the one we have here with you! THANKS A LOT.
Thank you for this detailed tutorial ,Shawna! My dog’s name is Ty and he is the sweetest, bestest Yellow Lab! Thank you for all that you do to share your best tips and tricks with us!
So grateful for you channel! I haven’t been able to get on here to comment and idk if you remember me but I got my first 5 sales all within this last week! Officially I have 50 listings all summer focused and now I’m switching gears and spending sometime on back to school before I dive into Christmas 🎄thank you again for being willing to share so much knowledge and tips on getting better!! Hope I can shake your hand and give the biggest hug for changing my life!!
Tyler! What a great message!!! Whoo hoo! Congrats on getting those sales! You are off to the races! May it be the first of oh so many sales! I am so honored that I get to be a part of your Etsy journey!
Thank you so much Shawna. I would have not figured this out without you. I’ve spend days figuring it out until I saw your video. I think I have my phrase and size sku codes good to go! Thank you thank you thank you 🙏🏼.
Wow I’m brand new to Etsy and POD and I was wondering what that create design button was for for different color. I want to start doing group listings. Thank you so much for sharing these tips. I did subscribe to your channel about a week or so ago. Thank you for all your help and time to research.
I just did my fist group shirt last night and decided on only one color given how much work the sync process was. THIS makes so much sense! Offer more colors/design options, but sync as they sell. Love this!!
Thanks so much Shawna x I am using Printful (UK) and so I guess it's pretty much the same to do this with them...hope so 🤞Big kisses and cuddles to Tucker 🤗xxx
Hi Maddi! I will pass those cuddles along to Tucker! I am doing a group listing video soon for Printful! A little different there! I always like to duplicate in Etsy and sync as I go when I use Printful... Moe coming soon!
@@shawnalynn2083 Oh that's great, thank you! I'm looking forward to it! It's a lovely sunny day here in the UK and although we don't get many, I'm being a good girl and am designing indoors today 😉hope you and Tucker have a smashing Sunday 🌞x
Dear Shawna...you are just so giving!! Thank you...this is overwhelming...but i will be following step by step. Hopefully get it right. Thanks a lot. X
Thank you, I suppose this is also possible to do with different types of products, like a baby shirt with the adult shirt, right? My golden retriever girl Jennifer says hi to you 😊
You're the best shawna thank you so much for what you do! Also, I'm sure you already know but just in case, make sure to pay off your fees on your youtube etsy store! Also, my dogs name is lily
Hey there jq! I noticed that the day I was filming this but tank you for watching out for me!!! I just went in to double check when I read your comment! Tucker is sending Lilly a doggy high five!
Sherri! I am giving you big hugs and sending JoJo kisses in heaven! Our fur babies should get to stay with us for so much longer than they do! I bet you gave Jojo a life full of love!
This is so great!! I want to start doing these. I have three simple custom shirts on right now just to get a feel for doing this. My chi mix is Cookie and my two cats are Thor and Loki. What I would love to see is how to quickly do mock-ups. That seems to be where I take the most time and keeps me from listing more items per day. Thank you so much for your videos!
My dogs name is Hunter!! 😂 Tucker gets cuter and cuter!! I want to give you a huge thank you for this video, with so much detail. I’ll definitely be watching it again. You honestly are the best ❤ Xxx
Wow! What a wealth of information in this video Shawna! Thank you SO very much for the information on how to create group listings. Just recently lost our Jessie, had her for 13 years, she is so very missed. Just getting my POD shop up and running, can't wait to put the information in this video to use for Q4!
thank you so much for addressing the issue of sync'd & unsync'd items on the same order. I would love to see a detailed tutorial on how you manage the orders when the whole shop is set to manual. I appreciate the explanation you gave on this video, but I always have questions with new processes. I love the way you teach, breaking processes down into manageable bites
I'm late to this video, but my dog's name is Duncan. He's a wheaten-colored Scottish Terrier. This listing strategy is intimidating me right now, but I may give it a go.
Hey girl its me the tarot card reader from your school lol! Love this video and you explained it perfectly! Going to try at some point the last way you did the listing:) Luna was my last pet, she was a German Shepard! Of course I stay to the end lol I always dooooo!
Thank you for doing this, Shawna! I will definitely have to watch this video at least 12 times, but at least now I have the resource! My dog's name is Daisy. :)
My toy yorkie was named Princess. I would love to adopt another though I have not found the right breeder yet. I do enjoy your videos and appreciate the effort you put into each and really love the tips from Tucker!!
Hey there JTHarvey! I am so glad you found this one helpful! Sweet Princess... I'm sure she has left paw prints on your heart that will last a lifetime! Tucker is sending you tail wags and puppy kisses!
Listen! I was ready to throw it all away and had to do it all over when etsy didn't let me save my work.😡 Thank you for confirming there isn't a easier way to do this.
You are so welcome! I am so glad you are enjoying the videos! And I am so sorry for your loss... "I still look for her every day." Is making me tear up! I am sending Mali kisses in heaven and I am sending you big hugs!!! I wish our fur babies could just live right up to our own last day!
Great info Shawna. My dog, Major, said he thinks he and Tucker could be friends. He's a medium size dog but likes smaller dogs better. Guess they're less of a threat.
Great stuff Shawna. I've only just opened by Etsy store and was trying to figure out how to list multiple designs, colors, and sizes for a Halloween Tee idea I have for couples. Looks like a lot of work ahead, but it'll be worth it. I also plan to use this process for my niche items as well. Thanks so much!! Rob
That was amazing!! Now I want to try multiple designs and colors in one listing. My dog's name is Lanie, she's an older girl and we have a kitten, her name is Moon.
Hello. Well the good thing about missing the premiere is that I can now watch the video at 1.75X speed, as I do most YooToob videos. Places to go and people to see and all that rot. Pip, pip, cheerio!
I have 2 mini-dachshunds, a 13 year old Male named Clifford and an 11 year old Female named Windy, they are rescues and I got them together 4 years ago.
Just so I am understanding, I create the listing in etsy with no sku, then create sku in printfy and then when someone places and order then I copy and paste the sku as they come in. Also if I see its selling then add sku slowly to etsy when I see it starts to sell
Excellent video, but we have a problem. Etsy is now flagging any thumbnails with what they call a collage, if shwing multiple products in one picture. 😢
Shawna, you are the teacher of the year! I have been doing group listing for a few months now but never knew (or realized) that designs could be a variation. I can see why these listings would make higher revenue and I can't wait to start doing this. I noticed you only offer 3 colors. Is this typically what you do? I offer 8 to 10, maybe that's a mistake? Thank you for everything you show us! You continue to be my absolute go-to for all things Etsy! My Golden Doodle is Bleu (6 yr old female) and we just lost our other Golden Doodle, Lily, 9 days ago but she will always live in our hearts 😢
Vivienne! Tucker and I are sending you and Bleu big big hugs! I am sure sweet Lily has left paw prints on your hearts that will last a lifetime! I am glad you found the video helpful! If I have just one design I often include 6 to 9 color options... but for a group listing with different designs available I usually do less just to keep it more manageable for me when/if it starts to sell! Hope this helps!
a GREAT video!! lots of information and definitely will be watching a few times over and over again! LOL Quick question: i was wondering if you could go into a little more detail on how you fulfill the order manually in Printify when a sale comes through from Etsy with no SKU, as you mentioned that you "sync as you go"....I would love to understand that process more! thank you!! :)
@@shawnalynn2083 oh another video request! 🥰 I would love to see a video about selling in the USA vs. Canada and how to set up shipping profiles, shipping costs and switching print providers if needed? I'm Canadian but sell only in the US market right now but would love to expand! Thanks so much!
My brain can only handle the first way lol Thank you for showing us :) Made it to the end so my 5 dogs names are Khalessi, Arya, Sansa, Xena and Willow ❤
Hi Shawna, thank you so much for the effort you put into your videos. They are very helpful for me. ❤ I have a question about the group listing methods 2 & 3: does I have to keep the listings on Printify on ‘draft’ all the time? I'm just wondering if the orders still go through. Sorry - I'm a beginner. My dog's name is ‘Flipper’ - that's the German name for pinball. And he behaves like this.
This video was SO helpful! Thank you so very much for walking us through this! I was very daunted by this and finally worked up the courage to give it a try and my group listing had 490 variations and a message pops up that Etsy only allows 400 variations, though your video showed examples of over a 1000+ variations. Is this maybe a recent change from Etsy?
Another fantastic video! I'm going to try adding a collection for the first time for some Halloween designs that are getting traction! 🤞🏾 Quick question: if I have already created the individual listings, could I use those SKU numbers in Printify to link it all vs. Re-creating them and saving as drafts? Thanks so much!
Hey there Samantha! Yes! No need to recreate them! Just use the skus you already have and both listings with those skus will be attached to that product and design! Hope this helps!
Shawna! Thanks for all your videos! Can you send me the link to the video where you did the bride & groom text withing a graphic? The one you did with the snowboarding goggles, I cant seem to find it! Thanks!!!
Hi shawna, this was an excellent tutorial. Tyvm. I'm wondering what you mean by sync later? If you have an order come through without a sku, what do you do on the order side and what do you do on the etsy side? Sorry, I'm new and have only made a few sales, all w skus.
Thank you so much for this detailed lesson on group listings. I have a collection with about 40 looks and will have probably 4 colors in 6 sizes, so I appreciate this video so much. I question why you don't also publish each shirt to etsy and have a reinforcing listing? And you completely lost my with syncing ... i have no clue, Ive never heard of it but I think it is easier to just sync everything from the start if possible instead of reviewing and manually syncing but I'm so confused on it - I just don't know. Thank you. I also watch Cassiy and I recognized you from your videos with her - thank you for sharing your story
Shawna I love your videos. I just opened my shop 2 weeks ago and instantly got suspended. I filed an appeal but it’s ridiculous how long it takes for them to answer back. I’m dying everyday! I would love you to do a video on how to set up shipping on printify and in my shop for when the customer pays for their shipping. Thank you!
Oh no Sandy! Keep me posted! I am surprised it is taking 2 weeks! I would probably send a follow up email if I didn't hear something soon! Keep me posted! These initial suspensions happen to many people and usually result with your shop being restored! And thank you for the video suggestion! I am adding this to the list!
Hi Shawna! This is awesome! Thank you! If I have already created individual listings that are connected to my Etsy shop am I able to come back and pull those skus into a group listing? Or is it best to create a new listing in printify specifically for the group listing? Thanks again! 😊 Tina
If you are making a group and an individual listing with different color options would you publish it as it’s own listing and then use the same sku number that matches the color in the group listing?
Hun Bun (my cat). Excellent group listing tutorial Shawna! One question though. How do we handle a group custom listing if the customer orders 6 Most Likely To Camping shirts as an example, but on 1 or 2 of them, they want to choose their own saying. How do we add that option to our group listing, and what does that look like? Thanks a bunch for this very clear and easy to follow group listing tutorial!
Hey there BeKind! Love your Kitty's name! I need to make a video on this, but I will try to give you the quick answer! So I go into my listing on Etsy and in the drop down menu with the available phrases I add the word CUSTOM as an optoin. Be sure to toggle on personalization for that listing and make it optional for the buyer so they can let you know the custom phrase if that is what they chose. I have my shop set to manual so I can go through my orders before pushing them through for the day. That way I can add it to the order. You do that by creating a product in your shop with the custom design. I hope that makes sense!
Hi Shawna, how do you do on Canva, for your images to be the exact size for the dotted green box. I am having issues with low resolution images. I would like mines to be the exact size as yours with 300 dpi. Can you help me? Thanks!
All of these you left in draft status… my question is at the beginning of the video you showed your group listing performance next to the single listing. I want to make sure my thought process is right- I can publish the design and then use that as a singular listing and then take those skus and put them into the group listing? I don’t need to have a published and unpublished option in printify? Great video by the way! And my dogs name is Emmy
Cute! Love that name... Emmy! I think I understand the question! So if you published lets say a first grade listing and pushed it our from Printify with all its Skus and maybe did one for each grade level and then made a group listing with all the grades in that one listing... Yes! When it starts selling you could just take the skus from those single listings you already did and attach them in the group listing. Did that make sense?
Hi Shawna! Thank you so much for this video, I did have a question about how you handle the shipping prices for these group listings. Do you have each shirt be the same for shipping for example 4.99 or do you have it be the first shirt is 4.99 then each additional shirt be less like 3.99? Thank you!
Hey there! I actually have free shipping set up in my shop... Thinking about switching it! To make this decision I would find several top performing shops and see what they are doing and base my decision off that data! I will put this on the list to do a video about and share my findings after I do the research!
Hi shawna, it seems etsy has a variation limit of 400, so your teacher example could not actually be synched up with the printify skus. Would you treat these orders as a custom order? Can you explain how to do that in printify? Or if I'm not understanding something, please correct me. I did try this myself, and could not create that many variations with skus. Thank you for your guidance!!!!!
My dog's names are Misty, Rhys, Dewi, Peaches, Lucus, and Buster. Yes there are 6 of them and they are miniature schnauzers. You can never have just one schnauzer. lol
Hey there! I feel like my orders with Printful have been a little slow. My orders with Printify are going out quicker so maybe I just haven't noticed it. My customers feel like they get their items quickly because they usually get them before the estimated window I have set in my shop. It always surprises me that even though I feel like things are slow I keep getting good reviews about arriving in time or early! LOL Hopefully the print providers are moving and grooving this Q4!
Does my group listing have to be in drafts for Etsy to know they’re active? My listing keeps going to “inactive” when I choose to hide it in my store😢. How do I make it go to my drafts folder on Etsy?
Hi Shawa - I'm just trying to figure out why 3 designs together - would sell better than each of them individually - when the customer is still purchasing an individual shirt. I offer multiple colors on all my shirts - I guess this is like offering multiple designs instead?? Anyway my little dog's name is Jasper.
Love that name! Jasper! So I think they start selling better sometimes because people click in and can kind of shop your listing rather than going back out to search results to find just the right thing. You have few more chances to get just the right thing in front of them! Offering more colors can also help with your conversion rate! Always love seeing you in the comments Cindy!
@@shawnalynn2083 Thanks Shawna. I always watch your videos! One of the shirts I grouped that was fairly new just sold, but it looks like they clicked on the individual listing. I grouped it with a shirt that is selling really well. I put 4 dog mom shirts together that are text only. It's always good to experiment. My customers don't seem to be overwhelmed by too many choices - I offer 9 colors on each design. Others have said that's too many - but often 1 customer will buy the same shirt in many colors. It seems to work for me.
Shawna, I am working on group lisitngs and offering multiple styles like t-shirts and hoodies in all my listings. Do you personally delete the draft of the item once it is listed or just leave it? Is there a way to organize the drafts in Printify and Etsy better? Thanks
YAY!! Perfect timing and Perfect content! Thank you SO much Shawna! Our precious dog's name was Mali. We had her 15 years and this past January she had been gone 1 year. I still look for her everyday. To say we miss her is such an understatement! Tucker is adorable! ENJOY!
Exactly!
I wish we could keep them forever. Titus was my little guy. I think of him everyday.

Listen! I was ready to throw it all away and had to do it all over when etsy didn't let me save my work.😡 Thank you for confirming there isn't a easier way to do this.
Thank you Shawna🌸 this was sOOO helpful!
I am so glad you found it helpful!
Thank you so much for all of this - such great information! And my Shih-tzu’s name is Miesha. Hugs to Tucker!
You are so welcome! I am so glad you are enjoying the videos! And I am so sorry for your loss... "I still look for her every day." Is making me tear up! I am sending Mali kisses in heaven and I am sending you big hugs!!! I wish our fur babies could just live right up to our own last day!
Great info Shawna. My dog, Major, said he thinks he and Tucker could be friends. He's a medium size dog but likes smaller dogs better. Guess they're less of a threat.
Hi Mike! So cute! Tell Major Tucker says Hi!
Great stuff Shawna. I've only just opened by Etsy store and was trying to figure out how to list multiple designs, colors, and sizes for a Halloween Tee idea I have for couples. Looks like a lot of work ahead, but it'll be worth it. I also plan to use this process for my niche items as well. Thanks so much!! Rob
fabulous. I'm doing this tomorrow.
I hope it was smooth sailing Carol!
This was so informative. Thank you from myself and my dog River
You are so welcome! Tucker is giving River a big HELLO!
We have granddogs...Abner, Daisy, Aldo and Polly...Great video, Shawna! Thanks!
I am so glad you enjoyed it! And sweet babies!
That was amazing!! Now I want to try multiple designs and colors in one listing. My dog's name is Lanie, she's an older girl and we have a kitten, her name is Moon.
I am so glad you enjoyed this one! So sweet! Lanie and Moon ❤❤❤
Hello. Well the good thing about missing the premiere is that I can now watch the video at 1.75X speed, as I do most YooToob videos. Places to go and people to see and all that rot. Pip, pip, cheerio!
Hey there Miley! We missed you but at least you got stuff done!
My son named our dog Boy Puppy. The dog I'd a German Shepherd Great Pyranese mix, so the name definitely contrasts his size.
Love it!!
Big Knowledge Transfer right here !
LOVE IT!
I have been waiting for this video!!!Group listing! Thanks Shawna.
I have 2 mini-dachshunds, a 13 year old Male named Clifford and an 11 year old Female named Windy, they are rescues and I got them together 4 years ago.
Just so I am understanding, I create the listing in etsy with no sku, then create sku in printfy and then when someone places and order then I copy and paste the sku as they come in. Also if I see its selling then add sku slowly to etsy when I see it starts to sell
Rosie, Sammy and Ybor! Furballs!
Furballs are the best!
Hi Shawna love your videos. They are very informative. My dog name is Kobe.
Glad you like them! A big hello to your little Kobe!
Excellent video, but we have a problem. Etsy is now flagging any thumbnails with what they call a collage, if shwing multiple products in one picture. 😢
Shawna, you are the teacher of the year! I have been doing group listing for a few months now but never knew (or realized) that designs could be a variation. I can see why these listings would make higher revenue and I can't wait to start doing this. I noticed you only offer 3 colors. Is this typically what you do? I offer 8 to 10, maybe that's a mistake? Thank you for everything you show us! You continue to be my absolute go-to for all things Etsy! My Golden Doodle is Bleu (6 yr old female) and we just lost our other Golden Doodle, Lily, 9 days ago but she will always live in our hearts 😢
Vivienne! Tucker and I are sending you and Bleu big big hugs! I am sure sweet Lily has left paw prints on your hearts that will last a lifetime!
I am glad you found the video helpful! If I have just one design I often include 6 to 9 color options... but for a group listing with different designs available I usually do less just to keep it more manageable for me when/if it starts to sell! Hope this helps!
a GREAT video!! lots of information and definitely will be watching a few times over and over again! LOL Quick question: i was wondering if you could go into a little more detail on how you fulfill the order manually in Printify when a sale comes through from Etsy with no SKU, as you mentioned that you "sync as you go"....I would love to understand that process more! thank you!! :)
I am so glad you enjoyed this one Samantha! I am putting this on the list!
@@shawnalynn2083 appreciate that! And all you do for us POD newbies!! LoL 🤗
@@shawnalynn2083 oh another video request! 🥰 I would love to see a video about selling in the USA vs. Canada and how to set up shipping profiles, shipping costs and switching print providers if needed? I'm Canadian but sell only in the US market right now but would love to expand! Thanks so much!
I have a Briard named Willow, two Chihuahuas named Benny and Lilly, and a Sphynx Cat named Raymond.
Sweet Fur Babies!
My brain can only handle the first way lol Thank you for showing us :) Made it to the end so my 5 dogs names are Khalessi, Arya, Sansa, Xena and Willow ❤
You have a full house with all those little pups! And YES! Group listings can be a lot! Just start there!
Hi Shawna, thank you so much for the effort you put into your videos. They are very helpful for me. ❤
I have a question about the group listing methods 2 & 3: does I have to keep the listings on Printify on ‘draft’ all the time? I'm just wondering if the orders still go through.
Sorry - I'm a beginner.
My dog's name is ‘Flipper’ - that's the German name for pinball. And he behaves like this.
Morning Y’all 👋🏻🤠
Good morning Jennifer!
This video was SO helpful! Thank you so very much for walking us through this! I was very daunted by this and finally worked up the courage to give it a try and my group listing had 490 variations and a message pops up that Etsy only allows 400 variations, though your video showed examples of over a 1000+ variations. Is this maybe a recent change from Etsy?
Another fantastic video! I'm going to try adding a collection for the first time for some Halloween designs that are getting traction! 🤞🏾 Quick question: if I have already created the individual listings, could I use those SKU numbers in Printify to link it all vs. Re-creating them and saving as drafts? Thanks so much!
Hey there Samantha! Yes! No need to recreate them! Just use the skus you already have and both listings with those skus will be attached to that product and design! Hope this helps!
Shawna! Thanks for all your videos! Can you send me the link to the video where you did the bride & groom text withing a graphic? The one you did with the snowboarding goggles, I cant seem to find it! Thanks!!!
Hi shawna, this was an excellent tutorial. Tyvm. I'm wondering what you mean by sync later? If you have an order come through without a sku, what do you do on the order side and what do you do on the etsy side? Sorry, I'm new and have only made a few sales, all w skus.
Thank you so much for this detailed lesson on group listings. I have a collection with about 40 looks and will have probably 4 colors in 6 sizes, so I appreciate this video so much. I question why you don't also publish each shirt to etsy and have a reinforcing listing? And you completely lost my with syncing ... i have no clue, Ive never heard of it but I think it is easier to just sync everything from the start if possible instead of reviewing and manually syncing but I'm so confused on it - I just don't know. Thank you.
I also watch Cassiy and I recognized you from your videos with her - thank you for sharing your story
Shawna I love your videos. I just opened my shop 2 weeks ago and instantly got suspended. I filed an appeal but it’s ridiculous how long it takes for them to answer back. I’m dying everyday!
I would love you to do a video on how to set up shipping on printify and in my shop for when the customer pays for their shipping. Thank you!
Oh no Sandy! Keep me posted! I am surprised it is taking 2 weeks! I would probably send a follow up email if I didn't hear something soon! Keep me posted! These initial suspensions happen to many people and usually result with your shop being restored! And thank you for the video suggestion! I am adding this to the list!
Ok…never mind that other question I asked on your (Printify group listing) for Printify…and i assume this is OK with custom group designs. Ty!
Hi Shawna! This is awesome! Thank you!
If I have already created individual listings that are connected to my Etsy shop am I able to come back and pull those skus into a group listing? Or is it best to create a new listing in printify specifically for the group listing?
Thanks again! 😊
Tina
How would you do the seo for a listing like this say for example teachers. Would you use general teacher seo or mix in specific grades in the seo
Shawna FiiiiiNE!!!!!!!!!!
If you are making a group and an individual listing with different color options would you publish it as it’s own listing and then use the same sku number that matches the color in the group listing?
Hun Bun (my cat). Excellent group listing tutorial Shawna! One question though. How do we handle a group custom listing if the customer orders 6 Most Likely To Camping shirts as an example, but on 1 or 2 of them, they want to choose their own saying. How do we add that option to our group listing, and what does that look like? Thanks a bunch for this very clear and easy to follow group listing tutorial!
Hey there BeKind! Love your Kitty's name! I need to make a video on this, but I will try to give you the quick answer! So I go into my listing on Etsy and in the drop down menu with the available phrases I add the word CUSTOM as an optoin. Be sure to toggle on personalization for that listing and make it optional for the buyer so they can let you know the custom phrase if that is what they chose. I have my shop set to manual so I can go through my orders before pushing them through for the day. That way I can add it to the order. You do that by creating a product in your shop with the custom design. I hope that makes sense!
@@shawnalynn2083 Thank you Shawna! That does make sense.
Hi Shawna, how do you do on Canva, for your images to be the exact size for the dotted green box. I am having issues with low resolution images. I would like mines to be the exact size as yours with 300 dpi. Can you help me? Thanks!
All of these you left in draft status… my question is at the beginning of the video you showed your group listing performance next to the single listing. I want to make sure my thought process is right- I can publish the design and then use that as a singular listing and then take those skus and put them into the group listing? I don’t need to have a published and unpublished option in printify?
Great video by the way! And my dogs name is Emmy
Cute! Love that name... Emmy! I think I understand the question! So if you published lets say a first grade listing and pushed it our from Printify with all its Skus and maybe did one for each grade level and then made a group listing with all the grades in that one listing... Yes! When it starts selling you could just take the skus from those single listings you already did and attach them in the group listing. Did that make sense?
@@shawnalynn2083 That's what I thought! I just had this weird worry that if I used the sku in two listings it would mess things up!
Great video .Thank you. Rodger from South Africa 🎉1800 hrs here
Hi Shawna! Thank you so much for this video, I did have a question about how you handle the shipping prices for these group listings. Do you have each shirt be the same for shipping for example 4.99 or do you have it be the first shirt is 4.99 then each additional shirt be less like 3.99? Thank you!
Hey there! I actually have free shipping set up in my shop... Thinking about switching it! To make this decision I would find several top performing shops and see what they are doing and base my decision off that data! I will put this on the list to do a video about and share my findings after I do the research!
In the second example did you publish all three in printify or just save as a draft?
Hi shawna, it seems etsy has a variation limit of 400, so your teacher example could not actually be synched up with the printify skus. Would you treat these orders as a custom order? Can you explain how to do that in printify? Or if I'm not understanding something, please correct me. I did try this myself, and could not create that many variations with skus. Thank you for your guidance!!!!!
Roo, My little Yorkie!
Love that name! Sweet Roo!
So for the 2nd way, once we put the sku in and a customer purchases it'll go to Printify?
I have a question, Etsy won’t let me save my group listing without putting the sku numbers? But I wanted to do your last option?
My dog's names are Misty, Rhys, Dewi, Peaches, Lucus, and Buster. Yes there are 6 of them and they are miniature schnauzers. You can never have just one schnauzer. lol
Hahaha!!! I love it! You have a very full house!
My dogs are Bree & Finn!
Give Bree and Fin a pat on the head for me!
SwiftPod for me has the slowest turnaround time, are you experiencing same?
Hey there! I feel like my orders with Printful have been a little slow. My orders with Printify are going out quicker so maybe I just haven't noticed it. My customers feel like they get their items quickly because they usually get them before the estimated window I have set in my shop. It always surprises me that even though I feel like things are slow I keep getting good reviews about arriving in time or early! LOL Hopefully the print providers are moving and grooving this Q4!
Good morning 😃
With the listing example showing 1320 variations, how do I surpass the etsy listing max of 400 message?
Does my group listing have to be in drafts for Etsy to know they’re active? My listing keeps going to “inactive” when I choose to hide it in my store😢.
How do I make it go to my drafts folder on Etsy?

Great video Shawna! I really think group listings can help a shop blow up. My cats name is Buddy 🥰
Hi Shawa - I'm just trying to figure out why 3 designs together - would sell better than each of them individually - when the customer is still purchasing an individual shirt. I offer multiple colors on all my shirts - I guess this is like offering multiple designs instead?? Anyway my little dog's name is Jasper.
Love that name! Jasper! So I think they start selling better sometimes because people click in and can kind of shop your listing rather than going back out to search results to find just the right thing. You have few more chances to get just the right thing in front of them! Offering more colors can also help with your conversion rate! Always love seeing you in the comments Cindy!
@@shawnalynn2083 Thanks Shawna. I always watch your videos! One of the shirts I grouped that was fairly new just sold, but it looks like they clicked on the individual listing. I grouped it with a shirt that is selling really well. I put 4 dog mom shirts together that are text only. It's always good to experiment. My customers don't seem to be overwhelmed by too many choices - I offer 9 colors on each design. Others have said that's too many - but often 1 customer will buy the same shirt in many colors. It seems to work for me.
Shawna, I am working on group lisitngs and offering multiple styles like t-shirts and hoodies in all my listings. Do you personally delete the draft of the item once it is listed or just leave it? Is there a way to organize the drafts in Printify and Etsy better? Thanks
