Hi Jay! Thanks so much for this review! I have heard great things about Custom Cat. I did sign up already before seeing your video. Do you know if I can still use your affiliate link or is it too late?
The sweatshirt is great - i also ordered my own blue performance tee with the digisoft print and it's awesome and soft. Looks as good as day one after 5-6 washes. Definitely recommend digisoft for polyester if your design isn't a full artboard of design (meaning that there is a good amount of "negative space")
Jay how do I use your 2 months free link? when i click it, the page says connect your shop and it says I have custom cat lite for free but i don't see how to get the free 2 month pro subscription. thank you!
@Kim Andreano if you've ever known the struggle of sublimation on dark poly back in the day, you'll appreciate this even more - especially without the "plasticky" feel of DTF. Thanks for watching!
I’ll have to check, but I believe you need to sign up for the pro and then you get the 2 months free.. you can always cancel before the third month too.
Hey, Jay. Does your method of creating in Etsy first and then adding the design to the printer after first sale to the printer work with CustomCat? Basically, will it link future products that are the same, or will you have to manually do it each time? Thanks!
It's not MY method... it was THE method before all the big PODs changed the game ;) , but yes - it works with 99% of PODs out there, just a bit trickier with CustomCat because their website isn't as intuitive as the others.. You can just add your store, then it'll pull your products into the "My Products" tab on the left below "store dashboard".. and you can sync as you go there - i'll make a video on how if i ever get the time haha :)
@@jayswayworks I know you're busy, but if you get a chance, could you let me know about the editing listings question below? I'm getting ready to redo my catalog. I only have like 40 listings, so it shouldn't take too long, but I want to try to make sure I have all my stuff correct. 🙂
@@arkikali5632 In a nutshell, it depends: • If it's SELLING WELL: DO NOT TOUCH IT • If it's not selling well, go nuts since it can't really get much worse, right? I actually just uploaded a video on this topic! Check it out: th-cam.com/video/N5NM60Rx7XY/w-d-xo.html :)
@@jayswayworks I just saw--I'm sick to my stomach FOR you. That sucks eggs. And yeah--I totally get the if it ain't broke, don't fix it thing. None of them are selling though. I suspect it's lack of eyeballs on the products and not having enough stuff in my shop. So I'll go in and edit and see if I can't turn that around before I start doing more. Thank you so much for all your help--much appreciated!
Jay--off-topic, but while I'm thinking about it--I've heard people say to never edit your listing on Etsy after it's live, that it hurts your ranking. That sounds like BS to me, but I admit that I know nothing really. I'm green as grass to POD and Etsy. But I'd appreciate your thoughts. 🙂

@@jayswayworks yes I am aware that I could order my own. I watched this review to see if I wanted to do that. Seeing your own design would be more helpful to your audience.
Thank you!! I started using CustomCat in January because of the print quality and vibrant colors! Super crispy!!! 😁
Super crispy indeed! haha :D
how is it after wash?
@@babbanbabu7300 everything looks brand new on their 3rd wash

Glad it was helpful! No idea - i suppose you could ask them ;)

So glad you liked it! Thanks for watching!

I will be focusing on color change mugs. Will this work?
The Digisoft is not sublimation so it's not how mugs are printed - sorry!
@jayswayworks thanks for letting me know.
Jay how do I use your 2 months free link? when i click it, the page says connect your shop and it says I have custom cat lite for free but i don't see how to get the free 2 month pro subscription. thank you!
So when you sign up for the “pro” subscription, you’ll get the first 2 months (60 days) free.. you can also cancel anytime :)
Thanks for watching!

I used the link but it did not give me two months of pro, I’m still on lite.

@@jayswayworks Totally understand about the time thing. I feel like I'm running six ways to Sunday right now. Thank you!

I would rather see a garment printed not using their standard template. All of these review videos show that same print design.
I have a couple with my own design ls I’ll make a video review about, but you can also always just order your own to test if you want.

@@lady6164 I’ll have the review ready next week!
