Thanks! Once again, super helpful info!
Hello Greg, Shimmy Morris did a review video on you. He wants to have an open discussion with you about print-on-demand. I think it is a great idea to share both opinions for the viewers to know.
I’ve been watching your videos for many years and this Spring I finely decided instead of just talking I was going to start a POD passive business and within a few weeks I made 2 sales!! I’m a legally blind designer so quite honestly if I can do this anybody can!! Thanks for the video.. I look forward to future videos to come!! :)
That is awesome! Thanks for sharing this, I think it's super helpful for others to see that it truly is a realistic business that works! As always, if you run into any questions at all just let me know!
Thanks so much. It really is easy to do and even before making any sales I was thoroughly enjoying the entire process of designing and uploading my designs. I do have a few questions. Are there any website recommendations for making and uploading digital artwork passively? And secondly, can you use place it to design and upload books to KDP publishing for books? These are just a few things I’ve been trying to sort out and would appreciate any advise you can give!:) thanks again!
I agree, it's a business that doesn't come with much stress, deadlines, or strict rules to follow (all the things I've hated about other jobs/businesses lol).. Great questions. My favorite passive POD sites are Amazon Merch On Demand, Redbubble, and Teepublic. Spreadshirt is another one worth mentioning too, smaller but just as good and easy to start selling on. As for placeit, I've never actually ventured into the POD books on their site. I know they do book mockups, but I'm not positive on the actual book contents. I would look into Canva as a potential good designing option for book layouts and such. I hope that helps!
That’s very helpful thanks!:)
Congratulations!!
Today is truly a thankful Thursday because I am so thankful that you shared this interesting informative video. Thank you very much. I needed to hear this today.
The information you provided in this video solved one of my biggest concerns. Thanks, and God bless you.
Glad it helped!
Greg, you are so thorough and as a brand new Print On Demand newbie, a channel like yours is EXTREMELY helpful! Thanks for sharing such helpful information. You make it not so scary lol 👍🏽
I appreciate that! Thank you! If you run into any questions just let me know 👍
Thank you so much for this video and the tips. I'm 19 years old and I have been trying to start something by myself in order to support me. I took notes of everything in the video, thank you.
Great video with valuable insights for anyone looking to start a Print On Demand business! The tips shared are really helpful, especially about the different ways to run a print-on-demand business and the importance of good designs. Thanks for sharing this informative content!
Yes l have been watching you since last year
Best POD TH-camr ❤
Thank you 🙌
Thanks for another great video!
Thank you! As always, if you run into any questions just let me know!
BRAVO!!💪🏾💪🏾
🙏🙌
I am so happy that I found you! Thank you for providing the valuable info. QUESTION. If I want to sell a few different niched Ts, do you recommend creating different accounts? Or is it okay to sell different niched Ts on the same account? For example, is it okay to have party Ts, golf Ts, cooking Ts, and gardening Ts on the same account? I appreciate your advice!
Hi Greg, just discovered your channel and am very excited to start. For the 3 sites you mention, if a customer returns their purchase, do the sites debit your account?
Hey Greg, I have an idea for a topic for a video - the dangers of infringing copyright. I think many people, especially beginners overlook the dangers of it, or are simply not aware something they use might be copyrighted. And there are also people who simply don't care because they think the worst thing that can happen is having their store shut down. Couldn't be further from the truth... I'm currently being sued for copyright infringement for a listing that I don't know if even made ANY sales at all. It feels like my entire life is going down the drain right now. The situation is so surreal that some moments I feel like it's a bad dream and I want to wake up out of it. The lawsuit seeks compensation in the MILLIONS of $. This is one of the so called "SAD scheme lawsuits" that mass-sue online sellers. In the lawsuit I am in there are hundreds of people being sued at once. Look up what "SAD scheme lawsuits" are and maybe make a video about the dangers of infringing copyright.
Thanks for the suggestion, I've just jotted it down in my video list notes. Dang, sorry to hear you're caught in that. It's frankly bad ethics law firms trying to make money by casting a huge net. The facts of the matter are thy aim for foreign copyright infringement cases and try to get lucky. In my opinion, if you inform them that your listing did not make money, or very little, and remove the listing from your account, I don't think there's much else for you to do. They would have to make the claim in your local court, which would cost them a lot of money to do, and if they know there's no money to be made from your listing, then it doesn't make any sense financially for them to move forward. I think they are trying to find the cases where the listing has made a ton of money and then push forward on those cases, but they cast a massive net to try to find those. I hope that's helpful to know!
@@GregGottfried Yes, your response is helpful. They are very unethical and their goal is to extract as much money from settlements as possible. They are aware in most cases judgements can't be enforced, but they rely on the people being sued not knowing their rights and being fearmongered by default judgements in order to make them agree on a settlement. I've already consulted lawyers in my home country and from what I understand I should be safe, however that law firm is very aggressive and keeps insisting on settlement (basically blackmailing me) claiming they will do everything possible to enforce the judgement. Very unpleasant and stressful situation. Even knowing I'm "Safe" their constant threats are very disruptive and cause me stress
Hi, can you elaborate on what kind of design this was? I'm a bit confused at this point as how to use canva in a safe way for t-shirt design.
@@ruthpospisil9768 Canva is safe to use as long as you use combinations of elements. But you can't simply take a single element from Canva and use it for commercial purposes. The design I'm being sued for is 100% custom and my own work, I didn't use Canva or other similar platforms, I designed it from scratch. And as far as I understand they don't even sue me for the design itself, but rather for using a specific word (which is the name of one of their products) in my listing's title. Totally ridiculous and shameless accusations.
@@ruthpospisil9768 The design is my custom artwork and I made it from scratch. When it comes to Canva, as long as you use combinations of elements to create your own design, it's fine. But you can't simply take a single element from Canva and use it for your work
Great video!
Hey Greg! Have watched a lot of videos on this channel.Gotta say they are extremely valuable!.I have a request for a very useful video idea-The DON'Ts of making a great T-shirt design
Great suggestion! I'll jot it down in my videos list!
@@GregGottfried Thanks Greg!
hi Greg, i watched alot of your videos, great videos, wanted to know how many designs you uploaded daily when you first started
Hi Greg, thanks for the video. I have a question, what is the best research tool, Merch Informer or USPTO?
Thank you for creating these videos. They are very helpful and I'm just getting started I know you said the names of the store dosen't matter but would it hurt to use the same name for all three? Thank you again.
Great video ‼️. How many business people give away tips, processes, encouragement, experience? Much appreciation ‼️
🙌 Thanks for showing appreciation, I'll keep them coming!
Thanks for the information. Come tax season how do you claim your earnings?
Do Amazon and the other POD services provide W9s?
Hello Greg, It's very informative . I wanna ask you how much potential money we can make through this passive business model
thanks Greg
No worries! If you run into any questions just let me know 👍
Hi Greg, I am planning start in POD and was expecting to learn about files and colors, meaning can I use image files ou just vector files? What about the black color over black shirt, should be removed from the file? Any more tips regarding this kind of production type questions? Thanks in advance.
Welcome to the world of POD! The best file is a PNG with a transparent background at least 72dpi. Also, I'd avoid putting black designs on black shirts, and the same for white on white. More info in this video: th-cam.com/video/-hV1199wN0k/w-d-xo.html
I watched your other passive POD Tshirts video…when I get to Tee Public…
I created an account
but going further, I’m unclear if I continue by “create a merch store” or under Artist header click “artist sign up” or just click “upload design”
Please advise which is the right path to start before uploading designs and selecting products?
Hey Greg , really nice video . I can do better editing in your videos which can help you to get more engagement in your videos . Pls lmk what do you think ?
hi, greg. do you also copyright or trademark your own designs in case someone uploads a similar design to yours at a later date and copyrights or trademarks it as theirs and sue you for your designs?
Please make a video on Zazzle print on demand marketplace 😊😊
Hey Greg, I am pregnant and started making more designs for POD than ever.. Have been following you for years.. I cant seem to believe anyone as no one is transparent like you. What are your thoughts on flipping websites? I guess I would like to give it a try... But would like some advice from your side...
Is there any other websites besides for the 3 you have mentioned that you can upload your work on
Those are the top performers but Spreadshirt is another good one worth mentioning 👍
@@GregGottfried What about Zazzle?
My only other issue is having to be 18 to sell on Amazon
Someone mentioned about the apprentice level that you start with which only allows for traffic if you promote on social media. Is this true and how do you get out of an apprentice account?
I’ll make a video this week explaining it 👍
For merch on demand do i have to change only email and phone number also do i have to change amazon account???
Could you kindly provide the names of the free tools utilized for checking trademarks?
How many trademarks can I check per month or per day with Merch Informer's Newbie Plan?
50 per day, resets daily, so in 30 days you can track 1500 👍
Great content as usual…stick to the plan 😎
Thanks 👍 More POD videos in the works coming soon
What about customizable stuff?
Hello sir,
I have an account in Kdp book, how will it work in accent print on demand?

Passive POD is the best..

Love from Indian 🇮🇳
How much potential we can get sale?
Bangladesh has been completely blocked by March on Demand by Amazon. what can i do now.
@help
Not true, u also need a telephone number for Amazon
That's correct for some regions
The Merch informer website for me doesn’t show the Amazon competition it shows the google results. How do I change that?
