      Hey Greg!
      What do you think about this strategy of using merch informer?
      Will it we effective also in other print on demand platform?
      1.Use Niche Hunter to find high search volume keywords
      2.Check specific keyword in "product search" for it's competition score
      Example:
      1. "dtg printer t-shirt" 305k search volume in Niche Hunter
      2. use Products Reserach to determine score for "dtg printer", which is "A"
      Using Niche Hunter we know exactly the ammount of searching for shirts products, not overall.

    I’m in the process of starting my own POD business, and I’m doing it (initially) through Shopify, with a mixture of Printful products and digital downloads.
    Interestingly, despite your comment about your channel being more focused on the passive side, I honestly found this really helpful. Some of the information can apply to both sides. Really enjoyed your grounded delivery. Subbed.

    Hi Greg, i'm new to POD and ive been watching your videos and want to thank you for the amazing quality in your content.I have two questions. ( If anyone on here can help it would be greatly appreciated) :)
    1) how many designs sould you be uploading each week to gain a good level of success and
    2) when uploading designs is it best sticking to one niche or is it bettere to just add multiple designs from all niches onto your page on each platform.
    Thanks in advance, Robert

    • @GregGottfried
      @GregGottfried  Рік тому

      Excellent question. I recommend covering as many sub-niches as you can. 20-40 designs in each is plenty. Some you may need even less, some you may end up doing more because you have more ideas. Hope that helps!

    @simonblandford6474 Рік тому +9

    Hello Greg. I really appreciate your tips. I just fell foul of your worst thing you can do. I used Typorama to generate a running slogan. It was an innocuous set of words from one of their standard Type faces / layouts. I assumed this was safe but did check the words for copyright. Nothing showed so I added my own little logo, also my own, and published it on 2 sites one after the other. For no apparent reason one of them took down the published design. The other took down my site and the design. This was very discouraging as I thought i had overcome both copyright and design issues before publishing. I then realised that my logo which appeared in both designs, may have resulted in them 'bouncing off each other' IE. that one may have seen the other through their automated checkers, and therefore assumed that they were breaching intellectual property. I have written to both sites to seek more feedback on what prompted their different actions, so that i could learn from the experience and not repeat it, but so far have received no reply. Any thoughts you may have would be greatly appreciated.

    • @ffstyle
      @ffstyle Рік тому

      If you are using the passive POD platforms as Greg mentioned, customer services are all handled by them, and for you as the seller has no control over their return policy. In that case, you just need to focus on creating more good designs for better potential sales.

    • @GregGottfried
      @GregGottfried  Рік тому

      Thanks for the comment Suze! The passive sites all handle the returns/exchanges/refunds for us. This is great because we don't have to worry about it, and it gives customers the peace of mind when ordering knowing that they can make a return if needed. Here's the video talking about which sites those are: ua-cam.com/video/y52g9pNY_38/v-deo.html

      Every POD websites have different rules, and the best way to find out which are the ones allowed for your country is to sign up an account and see if they let you.
