Your video on Etsy automation is a game changer! You've got an awesome way of making things simpler and efficient. Keep those insightful videos coming, they're really lighting up the path for sellers. Good job, man!
This was the best explanation of MyDesigns that I've been able to find. Thank you! You made it easy to follow and I really appreciate your detailed explanation of each step. I was really discouraged before so this was a lifesaver! I'm excited to go check out your other videos and I'm definitely subscribing! :)
You sir are a GENIUS...Thank you for making this video. I have had MyDesigns since it launched but I struggled with the tutorials they had. I watched this video and I immediately understand. You are very good at explaining things. I have only watched this one video of yours so far but I liked it so much I subscribed and I think I will binge watch your other videos too. Thanks again!
If you keep making detailed, long-form videos like this about MyDesigns, Etsy, Midjourney, Photopea (smart objects mockups from Midjourney images) I will definitely subscribe. You are an EXCELLENT teacher. P.s I think your stickers said "Mentatlly," instead of "Mentally."
Hey, great detailed video. It was at the perfect pace (not too fast or too slow). I do have two questions. I see for stickers they have printful and printed simply. My Etsy account is connected to printify is there any way I can use printify for my Stickers? If so, how do I get it on my designs?
Thank you! This is a good question. I will check with the Mydesigns team and get back with you. (I know that they have a setting that manual fulfillment, so it would be some extra steps, but I believe it is still possible and worth it.) By the way, you might find the integrations with mydesigns are less expensive than Printify. I was using printify for a while before I switched to Mydesigns.
great job on the video, could i ask please if you could do a step by step video of how to create your own mock up and also how to get smart mocks up from places like creative fabrica and then get that into my designs using photpea, for those who don t have photoshop like me, thank you so much its appreciated
thank you for your discount code and the link i just brought ayear subscription, i did have monthly, but your video was so good , i decided to support you by giving you an affliate sale, you deserved it.
Hi, question can you add the price in bulk to all the itmes. Like create a variable, can you please create a quick video. thank you! i think they updated it and it needs a value, am super confused
Yes you absolutely can. If there isn’t already one, you can create a dataset, called inventory and pricing and make sure it has two fields one called pricing and one called quantity. My designs knows how to automatically pick up that it’s a pricing field. So at that point you just bulk edit, drop down and select your pricing field, then enter a price.
Now with vision AI it doesn't have the option to select from the keyword dataset before running it. There's a custom instruction section. Do you the correct prompt to essentially putt the tags, and titles from the keyword, similar to what you did in the video?
My pleasure! Yes! through the dream AI and the canvas tab. I’m not sure if they have added a Font/Text feature for designs yet. I’m looking into that soon…. I’ll make a video creating designs and posting products all done from the Mydesigns platform. Note: (My favorite tool for creating designs is Canva.com I also use Adobe illustrator. My next video will be about how I create over 300 different variations/designs in an hour or less using adobe illustrator and automation scripts that I’ll leave links for… definitely check back for that. Should be up in a week or less.)
Just an update…I just learned from mydesigns that they are coming out with a new “canvas” system very soon that supports text, fonts etc as well as images, overlays etc. You’ll be able to create designs very quickly all on the platform for all your POD needs as well as for selling digital files.
I am looking for an app that can bulk edit the complete etsy listing. It would be great to not have to "make final changes" under etsy such as "who made it?", and "would you like to advertise this listing?" Are there any options in My Designs to "fully" edit my etsy listings? Thank you for your input in advance.
Yes. That is exactly what Mydesigns is for. However they currently only let you create new listings. Soon you’ll be able to edit existing listings as well.
I am currently working on uploading some bundles on my digital shop. So yes haha. If it’s just one image, Mydesigns will let you choose to convert it to other formats and automatically send to the customer when purchased. If it’s multiple items like a bundle etc, you just upload a pdf for the main file that has a link to a google drive (or other), where people can download the bundle. Hopefully that makes sense. I have also heard they are adding support soon where you can do bundles entirely from the Mydesigns platform
Thanks for letting me know! The time goes in to creating the bundle mock ups etc hence I hoped they would have created a bundle solution. Hopefully they roll it out soon
I love the video!! I have a question. If I’ve already published to Etsy and I need to make a change to my listing, do I have to start over in MyDesigns and with the changes? They’re changes I would have to make in MyDesign not just Etsy? Does that make sense?
Hi thank you! Yes, unfortunately they have not added that feature yet, where you can edit listings you already sent to Etsy. But I’m told it is something they are working on. It’s been requested by a lot of us haha. Don’t know if you are aware of this: If you are just editing your description or title, or tags, however, Etsy has abilities to edit all the selected listings at once. But it’s definitely limited as to what you can do.
@@BSquish No, unfortunately my issue is I’ve not included the main/default option in my final selection prior to publishing 😝😝 I’m extremely new and I just didn’t do it. My huge mistake, but lesson learned. Thank you so much for your quick response and much appreciated help! You’re videos are great! Keep them coming🤗👍
Do you mean you didn’t include it in the mock-ups selection? Because I never do. That file is stored in Mydesigns and sent to the print provider with the order. It’s not necessarily meant to be visible on Etsy. Or am I misunderstanding? Thank you! I appreciate it! Will do
@@BSquish OMG!!!!!!! I’m so happy to hear that! I can’t tell you how you’ve made my day!! I was thinking of it like that, but always second guessed myself. Thank you thank you 🙏🤪🤗
Hi. When I opened my MyDesigns software, I noticed that my listings page was changed. I have no datasets and my Actions tab is missing, with a few more changes. Is this a software glitch or can I get my original set up back?? Noone seems to know the answer why. I need someone to help me figure it out. Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks. :)
Sorry to hear that. If the Actions tab is missing, I imagine it’s a glitch. Did you already reach out on the Mydesigns community page? Also I wonder if maybe you need to go into your “Home” files and re-open your listings. (Top right of the screen). Hopefully this helps.
I used canva, and AI for some of the images. But I just uploaded a video showing the technique I used to make them all in a matter of minutes…. I’ll share that link on the next comment
Hey, since you are using mydesigns i have a question for you. what should we do about the return address section in mydesigns. Aren't they supposed to handle the canceled and returned orders? I thought we should put the adress of the print company which is mydesigns in this case. If i choose swiftPOD which is printify shouldn't the return adress be that of printify?
That’s a great question. It’s super rare that an item gets returned, but unfortunately last I checked, it will return to your personal address so that you can find a way to get it taken care of with your customer. This may have changed since though. I recommend asking this question in the Mydesigns community page. I agree, though, it would be nice if swiftPod or Printful handled this. Totally makes sense.
@@hozukimaru My pleasure! Thank you for the comments, helps the channel! Did you already sign up for Mydesigns? If not, there is a link in my video description. Then you go to your dashboard and about halfway down on the left of your computer screen, you should see a button that says “community”. I believe you have to be a member to access the community page. But I’m not entirely sure.
@BSquish i didn't release there was an affiliate link that would get me a discount until i watched ur video 💔. Unfortunately i already have an account. Just signed up 4 days ago and got my first sale after 2 days.
@BSquish however, i'm facing a problem, i got this message on my email : There was an issue when attempting to process the charge for this order. Do u have any idea of how i can solve this problem?
I’ll check on that for you. I know they have a whole slew of mock-ups and mockup features coming soon. They are about to integrate wall art as well, but I don’t think they have yet.
So yes, on the paid plans you can do custom mockups, which you can upload yourself and create your own library. The file you upload is basically a PSD(photoshop) file with a “smart layer”. I’ll be making a video about that soon too.
Holy Cow! Dude, this is not beginner-friendly! Yeah, I got the jest of it, but give us a link to learn from scratch for (Dummy-Proof Friendly) before Beginner-Friendly. For example, for one listing, show us how to (A) publish one primary image to sell T-shirts, Long-Shirts, Sweats, and Hoodie. Then, this course would be easier to understand. Take it one step further before advancing to this one, add a second listing. Then, I am ready for this. (ok, asking a lot. Is it easier to figure out (A) first, and export it to an Excel sheet to see the title, description, pricing, etc.?)
I hear you. Yeah I’ve actually realized this since uploading. There needs to be an even more beginner friendly video that explains POD and where to start with everything. It’s actually on the list for my next video. 🙌🏼
To answer your question. I think it is easiest to upload the primary image straight to Mydesigns. Then add the titles and descriptions in. You can do a single listing if you like. They have many mock-ups available to use for the various t-shirts, sweatshirts etc. You just need to make sure your design image is high quality and 4500 width by 5400 height for clothing items and 72ppi or preferably higher. If your image is small they have an upscaler in the actions tab. I would play around with everything. There is so many features etc that it takes multiple videos to figure out. I have plenty of videos coming. But I plan to make a square-one beginner video next.
This was not user friendly more like a programmer friendly. You lost me with all the editing of templates. I think for beginners you should show how to upload, mockups, ....all the way to publish so people like me are not lost right away. I was very intimidated with all the template stuff. I would like to see a vid on real beginner friendly with none of the templates editing stuff.
That is a great idea. As a matter of fact, that is the plan for my next video. I had similar thoughts. This software can be overwhelming at first because of all the features and capabilities.
You definitely covered more than the other TH-camrs have on getting started on MyDesigns
Your video on Etsy automation is a game changer! You've got an awesome way of making things simpler and efficient. Keep those insightful videos coming, they're really lighting up the path for sellers. Good job, man!

I'll share this with the MyDesigns community this week.

Wow thank you for this comment! 🥂 Much appreciated. Also thank you for the subscribe! I have a lot of great stuff coming 🤙🏼
Thanks for sharing! Saw you're a smaller account like me, so I decided to use your affiliate code instead of the bigger channels
Thank you for sharing, very informative video 👏
About to watch this video and I can’t wait! Didn’t know I could upload multiple listings at one time!
Stoked for you! This changes the game for POD
Fantastico! Thank you for making this video, I have watched it multiple times and taken notes. This will be a game changer .
Thanks for the video. I have lots to learn!
Hey my pleasure! 🥂 thank you for watching. This software is a game changer!

P.s I think your stickers said "Mentatlly," instead of "Mentally."
Yea! Many great videos coming!
Wow, you are right 🤦♂️ I did spell that incorrectly. 😂 I better fix that.
@@BSquish 🙂👍
Thank you for pointing that out btw! 🙌🏼
This was really helpful, thank you. Please could you do a digital product video like tumblers soon?
Thank you. Yes, great suggestion. I’ll add to the list 🍻

hi
can i do the whole process and them just downloads the mockup to my desktop?
Yes. You can download anything. Under actions, download as zip. Sorry for the late response
Thank you so much, for all the info. Very much appreciated it 😀
It’s a pleasure! Thank thank you for this comment 🫶🏻
Now with vision AI it doesn't have the option to select from the keyword dataset before running it.
There's a custom instruction section.
Do you the correct prompt to essentially putt the tags, and titles from the keyword, similar to what you did in the video?
Vision AI is a separate tool that analyzes your design image etc and writes data for you. The Phraiser AI tool still exits in the actions drop down.
Can you use this without a print partner? Like handmade products
That’s a good question. I will get back to you on that. Just realized this comment is 3 months old. I don’t know why I didn’t see it before.
Great tutorial!! Thank you!! Can personalized/custom designs be done with this software?
