Hi Cassiy, I’ve found using a site like canva to create a new custom project..I personally use 4500 x 5500; I then take an image I’ve created or an image off creative fabrics and stretch it out as big as it goes, when I save it set it as a transparent background ,enlarge to x3 and save. When I upload to printify or printiful it loads as high resolution with a dpi between 900-1600 dpi. It’s really made a difference in print quality
note that due to global stock issues, Port Authority B150 of Monster Digital will be replaced with an equally-high quality tote bag from OAD (model OAD113). The replacement tote bag will be offered at the same price to avoid order issues
This may be a completely out of the norm video idea for you, but as a stay at home mom of 3, I’m having a hard time figuring out a good schedule to regulate work time towards this business. So I’d be very interested in a video going through how much time you spent towards your business at the beginning vs now! Thanks!
In the beginning I had lost my job and was home for quarantine so I probably spent at least 20 hours per week on my shop because there wasn't much else to do! But then 4 months later I went back to work working 40 hours per week. Even then I worked before work, on lunch and after work so I probably still worked 20 hours a week on it the whole time I was working full time. BUT to be fair, I only have one chid and they are 13 so a lot less hand holding, they are very self sufficient. Now this year as I am focussing on building my YT channel and coaching business, I spend probably 20-30 minutes per day on Etsy and have made the same amount of money this year as I did this time last year right now!
Hi Cassiy! Thank you so much for doing this video… I have been wondering about the tote bags. I would also be very interested in purchasing the spreadsheet! You are such a great help and much appreciated!
linktr.ee/Cassiy_johnson Here’s a link to purchase the spreadsheet early if you are interested! I’ll make a video soon showing how to use it but it should be super intuitive. So glad you enjoyed the video ❤️
Thank you again for another great video. Now you’ve got me wanting to go design some tote bags and pillows, but I have to sit here and get my work done instead. 😄
You do your work but definitely add some tote bags to your store later! Like I said, I mostly just add my t-shirt designs onto totes so its just a super simple upload!
Cassiy what a wonderful presentation. I would be interested in your profit calculator. I also watched your interview with Ryan. I'm definitely looking forward to my shop being critiqued by you as soon as I get a few more listings posted. Sandra 😁 Texas
Happy to help when you are ready Sandra!! Thanks for the support of my new channel, really appreciate you and hope you find so much success in your business!
Excellent review! I've got my designs well under way. I get great value out of every one of your videos and always find additional great info in your answers to the comments. Thanks so much.
Hi! I just found you on Ryan's channel. I'm new to POD. I'm watching all of Ryan and Life Hacker Couple's videos at the moment. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and I look forward to watching all of your videos.
Whoa. I’m so glad I found this video. I listed a few tote bags yesterday, both of the ones you talked about here. I have mine priced very low compared to your calculator. Snap.
Hi Cassiy. I found POD on The LHC’s RUclips channel and the first video was the one they did with you. I am so pumped you have your own channel. I originally started a POD store last August, but was all over the place with things, very unorganized, and burnt myself out. I am ready to re-launch. But I am wondering to start, would you suggest getting an EIN or opening an LLC beforehand? Business bank account? I want to treat this like a business so I take it seriously, but I also am hesitant doing all this just starting out with no revenue coming in.
Hi Danielle, congrats on getting back at it! Try to give yourself some grace and take it easy so you don't get burnt out again. I would recommend getting an LLC and putting the business under it but honestly it's not something you have to do before getting started. I'd recommend treating it like a business and setting times to work on it and having specific things to focus on in each session you sit down to work.
linktr.ee/Cassiy_johnson Here’s a link to buy it if you are interested!! I’ll make a video soon showing how to use it but feel free to buy it early and check it out! So glad you are enjoying my videos ❤️
Thanks for commenting Jackie, I'll look into the best way to share that! I know it can be hard in the beginning to even figure out how much profit you are making.
Hey Cassiy! Watching this now so I can list tote bags in my new store :) and I was wondering do you use the same size design 5000 x 5000 for the tote bags & mugs? Thanks for all the value you bring to the world.
I read that the cotton bag doesn’t print white ink. Have you experienced this? At one point there was a note: regarding the white color ink on the bag but it isn’t on the information anymore for the product so I wondered if you had experienced a change in the print where white is showing.
Hi! This is so helpful! Thanks for sharing your insights about printify! I am planning to start my own Tote Bag business, but I am torn between using Printify (or other supplier that offers same service), or if I should just do it myself (buying totes, ordering prints, and heat press). Using Printify - definitely saves time and effort in terms of manufacturing the products and shipping them DIY - time consuming, but will save a few dollars in cost Do you have any videos comparing both? Having a manufacturer do it for you, vs doing it by yourself? Thank you!!! :)
Hey Cassiy ! shop is still not open and I haven't heard back from them yet ! If you do another product review could you please do the mugs and maybe the two tones ones ? I'm super curious about them. Thanks again for all the help :)
Ugh that is so frustrating Dana, normally they aren't this slow! Try emailing them again and even try calling them. I know they hide their phone number pretty well but here it is 844-659-3879 I actually already ordered some mugs so happy to make that for you! By two tone, do you meant he color inside and color handle mugs?
@@CassiyJohnson Thanks for the phone number i am definitely going to call !! It is 7 days today but not business days so i am wondering if that is why. Hopefully i can get someone on the phone though. And yes by two toned i mean the ones on printify that have the colored inside as a choice as well. Thank you for everything and i cant wait for you to review my store !
Also fyi i tried the phone number and it says that they no longer use this number and its an automated message saying the number is no longer in use and it hangs up . ughhhhh . I will email them again !
This was so helpful, thank you! I’m just researching what products to sell as a new POD shop. Would you purchase additional mock ups for the canvas bags, and if so how would you find one that is the same as the Printify ones as they don’t seem to specify on Etsy? Thank you ❤
This is beautiful. Thank you Cassiy. Can I ask a question. I'm planning to open Esty shop print on demand tshirt, mug and tote bag. Do I need to open three stores for these products? Please I need your advice on this. Thank you again.
Great question Nissi! I sell all of these things within one Etsy shop all as one big general store! I also sell sweatshirts, those are great sellers as well. Congrats on getting started, I know it can feel like a lot in the beginning but try to take a baby step today towards your goal. Maybe set up a Canva account and practice designing, open your Etsy shop, open your printify account etc, that way getting started doesn't feel so hard if you do the tiny steps first. It makes it easier to keep moving
SUPER HELPFUL!! Thanks Cassiy :) I spend so much time drawing my art that I needed other ideas for how to repurpose my drawings and I think totes are the way to go! Excited to try these!
Hi Cassiy, Thank you so much for all the great videos I watch! You are simply a true inspiration and a pleasure to learn much from you! What is the name of your shops on Etsy? I would love to take a look. I also looked for the bag in Printify and it wasn't there...see you in the next videos
There are definitely some free ones out there you can use right now as well Andrea, I know Alura.com has one, I just like having my built in on my excel spreadsheet so its always right there. I'll look into how best to sell an excel sheet and will post it when I can! Thanks for commenting, it really helps support my new little channel
When I buy a graphic from Creative Fabrica it comes with a high resolution of 2048 x 2048 pixels and a 300 dpi. When I use this graphic to create a tote bag on Printify it says "high resolution." When I create a pillow it says "medium resolution." When I create a comforter is says "low resolution." Do you normally create these products with these different resolutions, and if so how do they look?
Quick question, thanks by the way, so it looks like you didn't change the image you got from Creative Fabrica. You know there has been that controversy, so we DON'T have to add elements to the design IF we're doing POD, is that correct? Thanks!
Thanks for another video full of insight, I appreciate them greatly. Would you be able to do a video on how to deal with customer complaints, return requests etc I have a “this was made especially for you, so no returns unless there is a manufacturing defect” sentence in my description. Is there a better way to do it? I haven’t come across it yet, but would love your advice x
Thank you for your products review, i live in israel and to order the product from USA can take time and this video solve my issue and it's time saver for me💖
I’d love to see reviews of any other items that are popular with customers, or even less popular items that aren’t as saturated and will likely make a profit 1:17
Great video! Have you had anyone complain about the smell of the AOP tote? I just got my sample a few days ago and the smell is STRONG when I unpacked it. It went away after a couple hours of airing out but I can see people complaining and leaving bad reviews over it so I’m trying to think of a way to give a heads up about it (without turning people away because it’s really not a big deal) and telling them that the smell will mostly go away. Thoughts/ideas? :)
I can’t see anyone spending that much for a canvas tote - even buying a limited design from a museum is about $15. Most Etsy canvas totes are about $12 or cheaper - making it impossible to make a profit! The all over totes are much higher quality and I agree with the prices you have, if not a bit higher (with slightly bigger difference between sizes).
Hey, Cassiy! Did you post the shirts of the 3 main different color thumbnail images to show off on the Etsy Platform with also doing the same designs on tank tops, or sweatshirts at once?
Hello! Yes sometimes I will just list them all at the same time. You can wait until something starts selling to add old designs to tanks, totes and mugs as well though.
Hi Cassiy, thanks for the tutorial, I see that canvas port authority tote bag is out of stock everywhere which I had it in my store and now I can’t find another supplier with the similar prices and I had to adjust my prices on my store which reduced my traffic :( . Do you know when they will be back ? Or any suggestions in this type of situations ? Can we order them in bulk once they are in stock again ? Thank you
I just found out about this as well, such a bummer about them being gone! I haven't heard anything from Printify as to why but I'm hoping they will be back soon. I don't think you can order them in bulk when they come back unfortunately unless you just paid for it out of pocket, but that's not really the business model we are trying to build. I'd just go ahead and post your designs on the AOP bag instead and charge the higher prices. Sorry I don't have a better answer for you!
Cassiy, thank you very much for another great video! I learn so much from you! I have one question re the AOP Tote Bag: i created a couple of bags and tried to find mockups for the AOP Tote Bag on Etsy and Placeit, but couldn't find any. There are only mockups for the Canvas Tote. Do you use mockups for the AOP Tote Bag and if so, where do you buy them? Or do you think it is sufficient to make listings for the AOP Tote Bag without a mockup?
I haven’t found any great mocks for sale for the AOP tote so I have just been using the Prinity mocks as is. I think it’s fine to do this for an item like that where they don’t need to imagine themselves wearing it but if you ever see better mocks for them come out, then I’d switch to those!
Hello. I remain appreciative of your content. Yes, please sell that Income & Expense 2022 workbook! I would also be willing to pay extra if you were to offer updates as they arise.
I definitely think the AOP bag will be for sure, I use that thing for everything! I think the canvas one is a little small for it but would probably hold up!
Cassiy I tried to find out information about a coaching session or shop review and both links are not working. Please advise about where I can get that information. Thank you
So sorry but I am no longer offering shop reviews or one on one coaching, I now have a course available for purchase with group coaching that comes along with it, if you want details check out my website Cassiyjohnson.com !
@@CassiyJohnson Rats! LOL Would love to join your course but, alas unable to due to finances. Just getting started. Do you know of any other coaches that would do a shop review?
I’m trying to make a pattern for the AOP tote bag, but it won’t let me make a separate pattern for the front and the back of the bag so the back pattern is upside down. Do you have a solution? I tried to find a way to crop the pattern smaller and duplicate it so I could flip it, but that doesn’t seem to be an option.
Hi Cassiy! What should the canvas size be when designing on Canva for the all over tote? I can't seem to get the graphic to get on both sides of the tote properly. The top graphic covers the bottom space when I upload to Printify. Also, when doing the patterns, do we have to change the Creative Fabrica pattern somehow in order to be able to continue selling once the Creative Fabrica membership is canceled?
You can drag the designs to be bigger or smaller when you are putting them on the bag so you'll just have to play around with it until you get them right! As for Creative Fabrica, you'll just have to check the license for the graphic you are choosing!
Hi CJ great video! Re AOP Tote can you tell the me exact width for the size medium tote. I have a design that measures 10" x 13" design and need to know if it would fit proerly. Thanks.
Hi Cassiy 🌸 I just wanted to ask: with regards to the fees/charges, does printify charge you personally before carrying out the order or does it take the fees from when the customer purchases the product and leaves you with your profit?
Hi there! When someone purchases your item, their money goes to Etsy. Printify receives the order, then charges you credit or debit card. Depending on your Etsy settings, you receive payment from Etsy in a week or two. Hope that makes sense! Thanks for watching! :)
@@CassiyJohnson do you know of anyone thats having success just selling tote bags? I'm thinking of doing this for my shop specifically for book lovers? TIA
Hi Cassiy, I’ve found using a site like canva to create a new custom project..I personally use 4500 x 5500; I then take an image I’ve created or an image off creative fabrics and stretch it out as big as it goes, when I save it set it as a transparent background ,enlarge to x3 and save.

AWESOME it really helped me
A question. Do you need to create three different listings for AOP tote bags, small, medium, and large?
would love to have access to a blank expense/profit spreadsheet for the year - having something already built vs having to build ourselves is useful.
Where is the shipping cost factored in - or is that with free shipping?
If you did a black and white design could you use markers to color the fabric for the AOP bag?
I'm sure if you use fabric markers that it would work fine! You could always order a sample and see how it goes!

I just found out about this as well, such a bummer about them being gone! I haven't heard anything from Printify as to why but I'm hoping they will be back soon. I don't think you can order them in bulk when they come back unfortunately unless you just paid for it out of pocket, but that's not really the business model we are trying to build. I'd just go ahead and post your designs on the AOP bag instead and charge the higher prices. Sorry I don't have a better answer for you!
Cassiy, thank you very much for another great video! I learn so much from you! I have one question re the AOP Tote Bag: i created a couple of bags and tried to find mockups for the AOP Tote Bag on Etsy and Placeit, but couldn't find any. There are only mockups for the Canvas Tote. Do you use mockups for the AOP Tote Bag and if so, where do you buy them? Or do you think it is sufficient to make listings for the AOP Tote Bag without a mockup?
I haven’t found any great mocks for sale for the AOP tote so I have just been using the Prinity mocks as is. I think it’s fine to do this for an item like that where they don’t need to imagine themselves wearing it but if you ever see better mocks for them come out, then I’d switch to those!
Hello. I remain appreciative of your content.
Yes, please sell that Income & Expense 2022 workbook! I would also be willing to pay extra if you were to offer updates as they arise.
Thanks for the comment Barbara, So glad my videos are bringing you value!! I will definitely look into how to sell the document then!
Great video. Do you think the bags would be strong enough to use as Halloween bag?
I definitely think the AOP bag will be for sure, I use that thing for everything! I think the canvas one is a little small for it but would probably hold up!
Cassiy I tried to find out information about a coaching session or shop review and both links are not working. Please advise about where I can get that information. Thank you
So sorry but I am no longer offering shop reviews or one on one coaching, I now have a course available for purchase with group coaching that comes along with it, if you want details check out my website Cassiyjohnson.com !
@@CassiyJohnson Rats! LOL Would love to join your course but, alas unable to due to finances. Just getting started. Do you know of any other coaches that would do a shop review?
I’m trying to make a pattern for the AOP tote bag, but it won’t let me make a separate pattern for the front and the back of the bag so the back pattern is upside down. Do you have a solution? I tried to find a way to crop the pattern smaller and duplicate it so I could flip it, but that doesn’t seem to be an option.
Hi Cassiy! What should the canvas size be when designing on Canva for the all over tote? I can't seem to get the graphic to get on both sides of the tote properly. The top graphic covers the bottom space when I upload to Printify. Also, when doing the patterns, do we have to change the Creative Fabrica pattern somehow in order to be able to continue selling once the Creative Fabrica membership is canceled?
You can drag the designs to be bigger or smaller when you are putting them on the bag so you'll just have to play around with it until you get them right! As for Creative Fabrica, you'll just have to check the license for the graphic you are choosing!
Hi CJ great video! Re AOP Tote can you tell the me exact width for the size medium tote. I have a design that measures 10" x 13" design and need to know if it would fit proerly. Thanks.
So helpful! Ty
Hi Cassiy 🌸 I just wanted to ask: with regards to the fees/charges, does printify charge you personally before carrying out the order or does it take the fees from when the customer purchases the product and leaves you with your profit?
Hi there! When someone purchases your item, their money goes to Etsy. Printify receives the order, then charges you credit or debit card. Depending on your Etsy settings, you receive payment from Etsy in a week or two. Hope that makes sense! Thanks for watching! :)
@@CassiyJohnson do you know of anyone thats having success just selling tote bags? I'm thinking of doing this for my shop specifically for book lovers? TIA
