    I heard you talking about feeling bad if your videos don't immediately hit. Of course, understood, but you have a totally different slant to POD than almost everyone on yt. I would keep persevering and believe in what you have to offer. The ones that are different always rise to the top eventually. Thanks for your videoes. I personally really love them and learn a ton from a completely different perspective/outlook and appreciate the value of that and you. You have a great deal to offer and are succinct. You will be rewarded for it.

    Hey Shimmy, thank you for another great video! I watched the whole video and I have a question that you can add for your next video like this. When creating designs, especially a text design, is it a good idea to create a few different versions of that same text with different graphics/fonts? So that way when you run ads, if all of those text designs are duds, you can move on, but if one takes off you know that text is good, but future designs need to be more like the one that sold well?

    Hello,
    I have a question. Let's assume that I drew an existing device such as a car or a computer in vector graphics and when printing this graphic, on a T-shirt, for example, I signed it under the graphic, i.e. the object that I drew. So my graphic shows a Macintosh computer from 1984. Can I put the inscription 1984 - Apple Macintosh 128K under the graphic on the T-shirt?

  • @jayplays568
    @jayplays568 Місяць тому +1

    Thanks for making this, it was very helpful! I had a question, you mentioned that 100 designs is a good number to start with. Do you then keep creating new designs and if so, how many do you add to your store per week/month? Do you keep creating new designs so that as time goes on you will have 1000's of designs in your store and this will keep growing, or is there a maximum number you would recommend (and if so, what is the max)? Also, do you recommend offering personalization for some/all your t-shirts?
    Thanks again, keep up the great work!

    • @shimmymorris1
      @shimmymorris1  Місяць тому +1

      Thank you!
      Yes I keep adding. Each month is different. Maybe 30-50 a month. Sometimes we go wild and add 100 new designs in a month haha.
      We just started adding personalisation to our store. So we now have about 16 designs that can be personalised. Going to test that this Christmas season.
      I would say if you want to make more money keep adding. The more you add the more chances you have of finding winners and making more. Eventually
      You’ll keep them organised in collections

      One other question I had was about Facebook ads: is my understanding correct that if they cost, say, 0.50c per click, for $100 you would get 200 people clicking. Does that mean that with a, say, $10 per item profit margin, you would need a 5% conversion rate (with each person buying one item) in order to breakeven on the ad spend? Is that considered a high conversion rate (or what is a reasonable expectation)? And then what happens after that, do you have to keep up that rate of spending and hoping to achieve a conversion rate >5% in order to actually be profitable?

      Go back in his history, he’s actually very transparent compared to other UA-camrs on the subject. The vids are very informative and he almost strictly sticks to POD unlike others, if you want step by step there’s tons of content out there other than his. Chris Heckman did a 21hr step by step a few months ago. Shimmy’s YT is short but insanely informative and mostly to promote his Skool community which imo is insanely cheap for access to if you want to surround yourself with people in the space and at your same level. There are real asshats in the space that try to steal money from people, but try not to be too negative there are people truly trying to help people make their first dollars online and live a freer life, and I think its perfectly reasonable to make money whilst doing that.
