Hey Alek, I love all these great videos you make but your making me want to switch my product all the time haha. Right now I’m doing Etsy images but eventually I will go into mugs and shirts once j have mastered this market
Love the video❤️ I just started my print-on-demand journey and found Crafted Threads. They have a ton of designs and it saved me so much time. They have something in every niche. And lifetime updates too!!
You must not be good at math. Tell me again how you sell a Mug for $11.69, have to deduct the cost of the printed Mug, and earn $12.20 in profit!? His math doesn't work, but he talks fast and uses nice graphics so apparently people aren't really listening.
Hi Alek! I’m in my fifties, single income lady, looking to starting my own POD shop for financial security. Currently in healthcare but it’s expensive to keep paying for professional dues, CEUs, and books for my job. I’ve decided to start investing more into myself than I do in organizations that aren’t all that beneficial for getting me to my goals. Recently found your channel and sub’d. Looking forward to purchasing your course. Thank you for being open and transparent. Most ppl I’ve watched focus on how successful they are without really being honest about the time it takes nor give helpful information. I’m now binging your videos and taking notes. Appreciate you so much!
Make sure you give your shop lots of time to develop. Be patient with it. I started my first Etsy shop as a side hustle but now Etsy is my full time income. I just helped my mom open an Etsy store to supplement her income now that my dad passed away too. It’s totally doable. I wish you the best of luck!
@@alexisidorou4334Hi it’s great to hear that your shop became successful. I’m 22 and looking to get into this. I don’t expect anything but at least start as a hide hustle. How did it become your fully time job. Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you
I subscribed about week ago and I followed your 'quick start' guide and got my shop created and linked to Printify. I SOOOO need a tutorial guide on Midjourney design creation, proper staging and then product description so that I can use your bulk uploader and actually get the shop up and running. Your content is amazing, I just need more nuts and bolts.
Hey xan you give me like just 10 steps how you got started like first. Like step 1 do this, I het a bit overwhelmed. If you're not to busy... did you start with getting Printify and such? Is what I mean
Wow! I just binge-watched this series. Awesome - thanks for the transparency! Still planning to start a shop on Etsy tomorrow - I've marked myself "unavailable" all day so I can get all the first steps (Etsy shop, Printify account, etc) all set up and get 30 designs loaded.
hey brotha love the content its helped a lot. can you do a video about the post order process? like what happens when someone orders something and how to make sure its fullfilled on both etsy and printify correctly including shipping settings and whatnot? Also, how custom products are completed after an order is sent in and how to edit the product on the printify side after. sorry if you have done a video like this before i just havent seen one anywhere from anyone or just didnt find it. thanks again for the help and content!
Alek, You sir, are what the internet needs more of. Thank you. 🙇♂️ Would love to see a mini series of vids on you working with a newbie and their new shop (mentor type thing) and giving feedback on how the newbie implements your ideas. Kind of looking over their shoulder type relationship so the internet sees what unforeseen issues a newbie runs into. Vids for example could be a weekly or bimonthly 10~15 min chat with the person discussing what they did right, did wrong, what's to next, etc... Thank you again. 👍
The internet needs more false hope peddling lairs, telling you waste countless hours in the most over saturated, low ticket hustles around. Lets see, meet back here week to week month to month. I absolutely know with 100% certainty none of you will get more than 5 sales in 6 months. And its so much work doing all these designs (That are that same trash products that 10000000000000000000000000000000 other people are also doing) Let's see. You will see I am 100% correct and this is weasel POS charlatan selling people false hopes while he farms you all for clicks and views. A
Just found your channel & was interested in getting into this "passive" income ecomm. I work 60+ hrs a week so I was just looking for another stream of income. My only hesistation with doing ai work on etsy is all the underlying fees & the legal aspects which seem to not get talked about a lot from all these gurus that make it seem so easy. Are there any realistic guided videos for a beginner like myself?
Exactly. It's never this simple, but also you need money before to make such money at a rate like that. That dude probably ran smooth ads with a good budget. You can't organically just quickly make more than half a million dollars in just half a year using only the algorithm. If this is true, which I leave some big room for, as there are a 1 in a million people out there, there's a lot he put to this than just organic sales.
If it was easy everyone would do it, his videos just show that you can do it. Take what has value and move on. At the end of the day its you that need to move, he isn’t going to do it for you.
Hey Alek, could you do a video about avoiding scammers when setting up Etsy shops? I was just scammed hundreds of $ by scammers pretending to be ETSY needing to verifying my account just as I freshly started my Etsy store … within mins/first hours of setting up my store.
This is a God Send. My career is ending due to health, and starting something new is a bit overwhelming. (the idea of sitting around doing nothing is insane to me) THANK YOU SO MUCH for showing us newbies how it's done. Having fun and learning AI techniques is a plus. THANK YOU Alek !
I’ve been doing a lot of research. My problem, and it’s a very, very big problem, Is that the print on demand companies charge an arm and a leg for their products. The products cost way more than things people can purchase on Amazon and also the shipping time is way longer. How can this business model be competitive?
nice ideea, but there are many factors that influence your revenue. there are cost to publish and hold the items on marketplace, transaction fees, payment processing fee and advertising fees that you have to pay. it's not impossible tho. no one spoke abot the fees and that you have to pay listing fees :))))
Thanks for letting us know how to make money. I’m going to look into doing this. More people like you should let more people know how to make money from businesses. I thank you sir!
Hey, I really like you're videos. One thing that would really interest me is how to start such a businesses and how to sell internationally, so the paperwork and the rules and where you would have to pay which amount of taxes, how to create such a company, what else you would need to take into account BEFORE selling stuff on the internet legally and how does that work. Thank you!
Etsy handles a lot of this on their end. While you should obviously do your own research, I've found it better to start selling and then get things figured out if any sales come in. Other wise you end up spending a ton of time trying to get things set up right, instead of actually selling.
Wow! Fantastic information! Question - would you mind creating a demo and/or clarifying how customization and POD work in more detail? Would that customized order be created manually by myself for the customer? Or...? I'm not sure I understand. Thank u!
Isn't there a LOT more involved if you personalize it? Don't you have to add the customizations in Canva first, then go over to Prinitfy and upload the image to the mug, then create the order for the customer?
Thank you as always for sharing your knowledge with us! Quick question - My mid journey prompt box STILL says “coming soon”. Any idea when they will be releasing to to others? TIA😊
Thank you for this video and your linked guide. I've been looking to jump into selling on Etsy for quite some time and this is helpful. FYI, your guide has an error which makes things a bit confusing where you say: "Doing this would could get your shop temporally shut shown" Obviously the sentence is not correct English and I'm not quite sure what you are referring to as you don't specify what it is that could get our shop shut down. If you could clarify that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Followed most of the proccess just to find out A. Etsy doesn't allow stores in my country B. Etsy does not allow you to receive payments in banks from my country C. Even if you have a bank in one of the countries they allow, you still cannot open a store without an actual address in an allowed country. That's the dumbest of the 3 limitations tbh.
trust me you just saved yourself from wasting countless hours for 5 sales over 6 months, selling the same trash AI design mugs that 10000000000000000000000000 others are doing, for ULTRA low tickets. This guy is a BS merchant of the highest order.
great video Alek thank you - can explain in more detail how the custom products work - after the customer makes the purchase and includes their custom info how do I get that info printed for them or is it done automatically?
Love Love Love this video! Thank you SO much, Alek! And PLEASE!! More help with Midjourney's prompts!!! I really appreciate you and your helpful nature!
If you choose to do the customized option for mug designs, do you have to manually edit all the designs yourself, or is this process automated in some way?
Does anyone else stopped seeing the actual results when you search for an item? It used to show me the amount of listings, but now it only shows 1000+ listings - no matter what I am searching for?!
Thanks for another great video and some much needed information. A little while after watching your previous video on this topic I started my own Etsy store selling mugs (through Printify). Admittedly, I only have 52 mug designs so far, but I've still not made a single sale, lots of views but that 's it. I don't have a budget for marketing, I do have a Placeit account and I do use AI for my designs. However, I do feel I am missing something, so the question is "Am I missing something?".
Great dude so your 50+ shitty AI images aren't selling. Want a hint? The market is saturated with this AI crap. People like you are making it hellish for real creatives. People probably aren't buying your stuff because it looks uncanny and it's soulless.
@@alekSheffy 54 tacky stolen pieces of art not enough? I noticed all the comments I've left about how unthetical this technology is have all been deleted. You realize in some areas is 9/10ths AI art on etsy right? The reason no one is buying your stuff is that the market is saturated already
I queried a number of these POD pre-made design bundles and they said not only were they not editable but they couldn't be used for commercial purposes.
Why would this guy welcome competition to a process that makes him revenue? Not to say he's being dishonest, but I'm sure there's far more to this process for it to be this profitable.
Anyone that's not an artist won't give a shit, but as a traditional artist it's pretty discouraging how anyone can now type a command into computer and have "art" produced for them. People making a living with no artistic talent and I'm over here barely able to sell my own work that I actually spend hours, months, and even years producing.
God bless you Alek, thanks for sharing this wonderful information. I am desperately seeking a change in my life and looking at ways to where I can have a good work-life balance. much love man and keep up the good work
Dude don't be fooled this is absolutely not a way out, this guy is absolute charlatan, I been down this road selling 100's a month + 100 of T-shirt sales they are such low ticket for the amount of effort you put in, you will have to sell ridiculous amounts to get anywhere close to changing your life with this. This area is so fkn saturated with others who thought of this long before this video, and even those that sell 1000's a month are still not making enough to change their life. at around $2 - $4 dollars per sale do you realise how many you need to sell in a completely red ocean over saturated market. Don't take this wrong way I am trying to help you. Don't get your hopes up and waste your time.
@@RoniBliss I appreciate all you have to say, but honestly I will try just about anything to make a change in my life. and if this works out, great. if it doesn’t, great, I’ll just go to the next thing. but thank you anyways
Careful buying the ready made PNG designs. A lot of them are stolen and you could get a copyright infringement claim from the author against your shop. A good clue is if the png shop has tons of super cheap designs in a wide variety of styles. Typically designers stick to one style or make series of designs in the same style. If a shop is only selling bestseller design pngs in vastly different styles they’re most likely stolen. Authors have a hard time getting them taken down since they’re obnoxious and counter claiming everything. Myself and another Etsy friend have been dealing with a thief like that.
They offer a free tier, but keep in mind that images generated with a free account cannot be sold due to usage rights. Only paid plans come with a commercial license, which grants you the right to sell the images you generate
Do you do images for both sides of the mug when not doing wrap around design? Are there any fonts/font packs that you would recommend for beginning designers?
The listing process on Etsy is what I find takes the longest. Even using your uploader , (thank you !) not every listing can have the same keywords , titles and descriptions. Can you make a video about this? 🙏
bro do you have completely separate shops by type of products or niche? like in your mug shop its just mugs that's it absolutely nothing else gets in the mix?
honestly, thank you so much for these videos, POD/E-commerce seems like a great option for increasing my income and not having it confined to 1 country and you've really done well to explain all the steps and more importantly give us the facts debunking the get rich quick schemes that are so prevalent in this space.
Have you made the video about creating designs with midjourney yet? I've looked through your videos but didn't see one. I may be blind and is usually the case, but wanted to ask anyways in case i really did miss it. Thanks a bunch!!
I tried this for a couple months and I know you said to try this for at least six months but I don't know. I've had nearly 2000 views of my products and not a single purchase. Also the only messages I get are from scammers.
Doing 1 jumping jack on the mars for every like this video gets 🙏
Are custom items the main way to successed on Etsy? Or can you without doing custom items?
This could be a good way to fund the trip! Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
Hey Alek, I love all these great videos you make but your making me want to switch my product all the time haha. Right now I’m doing Etsy images but eventually I will go into mugs and shirts once j have mastered this market
Would really like a video addressing how you manage the suspension issue, and why you think they suspend accounts?

This is a very solid and on point video I’ve seen in ages
No its an absolute lie, selling you false hopes in one of the most over saturated, low ticket niches around.

No he is BS false hope peddling charlatan.
It's nice that you show how to buy mockups in Etsy. But not how to combine the design with the mockup.
I have several videos on automated ways to do it. Other wise use canva to drag the design on top of the mockup.
Thanks for letting us know how to make money. I’m going to look into doing this. More people like you should let more people know how to make money from businesses. I thank you sir!

So I've never seen that midjourney screen.. midjourney alpha? is that an app? I like the settings for orientation and scale...
@alek - great vid. For the MJ Alpha, what's needed to get access. I couldn't find it on the site (it always links to discord)
love everything ....from video
Careful buying the ready made PNG designs. A lot of them are stolen and you could get a copyright infringement claim from the author against your shop.
A good clue is if the png shop has tons of super cheap designs in a wide variety of styles. Typically designers stick to one style or make series of designs in the same style. If a shop is only selling bestseller design pngs in vastly different styles they’re most likely stolen. Authors have a hard time getting them taken down since they’re obnoxious and counter claiming everything. Myself and another Etsy friend have been dealing with a thief like that.
youre the only real person in this comment section, all the others are this guys paid bot accounts
@@MousyTTR haha! I doubt it. His content is great.
Midjourney video guide would be GREAT.
Awesome video! Thank you for the content! Is mid journey copyright free?
Great vlog as usual Alek. I would love to see more Midjourny content.
Alek if you were to start today on Etsy selling what would you start with? I have watched your videos that say start with one product. Thanks Julie
They offer a free tier, but keep in mind that images generated with a free account cannot be sold due to usage rights. Only paid plans come with a commercial license, which grants you the right to sell the images you generate
I believe Leonardo states that the images you make is yours and free to use however you like. That was the case anyway a few months ago.
Do you do images for both sides of the mug when not doing wrap around design? Are there any fonts/font packs that you would recommend for beginning designers?
The listing process on Etsy is what I find takes the longest. Even using your uploader , (thank you !) not every listing can have the same keywords , titles and descriptions. Can you make a video about this? 🙏
bro do you have completely separate shops by type of products or niche? like in your mug shop its just mugs that's it absolutely nothing else gets in the mix?
If this has worked for anybody please let me know how much it’s made you
What you do is amazing and so kind. I'm excited to get started!
honestly, thank you so much for these videos, POD/E-commerce seems like a great option for increasing my income and not having it confined to 1 country and you've really done well to explain all the steps and more importantly give us the facts debunking the get rich quick schemes that are so prevalent in this space.
I honestly feel so sorry for you, you are about to waste so much time for nothing all because of this snakes BS
Have you made the video about creating designs with midjourney yet? I've looked through your videos but didn't see one. I may be blind and is usually the case, but wanted to ask anyways in case i really did miss it. Thanks a bunch!!
I tried this for a couple months and I know you said to try this for at least six months but I don't know. I've had nearly 2000 views of my products and not a single purchase. Also the only messages I get are from scammers.
Any follow up on this?
