i've watched about 5 different videos about this but yours takes the cake. we're finally able to offer customization on our etsy shop thanks to you! really great video i appreciate you!!
Thank you so much! This clears up so many questions regarding personalized items. Hopefully, they make it a lot easier in the future for custom orders.
Thanks. I am avoiding starting Etsy though I hv shop set up. I just don't feel confident enough to actually start thinking about all the competition 😀 but I am regularly watching you for gaining knowledge 🙂
It took me longer than it should have to be comfortable and confident on Etsy. After coming from other types of POD sites it definitely can feel very different to master.
I am so glad I found this. I just started a etsy shop offering personalization and although I have it set in etsy....I had no clue you had to go in with a new design each time on printify. I was wondering how that matched the fonts to my example
Thank you so much for sharing this video, I was really searching how to find personalized products through print on demand and coudn't find anything. But this has made it way easier manage :D
@Hannah Ebeling Hannah, may I ask too please ur advice?,when making ur titles do u use the general keywords first then item specific or specific first? Ex= men's t-shirts, grandpa birthday.
Hi Hannah, love your videos. Can you pl tell us how you reached the page @7:51 in the video, where you say lets see how this item will look on etsy. Is it preview listing? Is it is the page looks very diifferent now and I don't see the listing tools menu that you see on the pg @ 7:51. Maybe etsy changed the interface but looking for your confirmation. thx!
Thank you for sharing this. Btw I want to ask if you know this. When I make a design, I want to use my own color palette, but on Printify they already set up a default color. I was wondering if there is a way to choose the color that we want for the design
Hey Hannah, thank you for this video! To confirm, I do NOT “publish” my custom prints on Printify? I just tag the printer (monster digital for example) in my Etsy listing?
Your video is so helpful!! What do you do if you don’t have shipping option already listed? How do I put in a shipping profile for a personalized item without having to publish through Printify?
Say you didn’t do anything to it or took a couple days until you got to it..would it just send out the “custom” shirt to the person or does it need you to manually do it in order for it to send?
Sometimes I’ll make a handful of unique designs, maybe 10+, and then if I get traction in even one of those, I’ll start uploading even more in that niche.
For custom shirts, do you have a specific shipping profile for that? since it may take you an additional day to make the order on top of the normal processing time?
I lean on the very safe side on estimating times, Printify typically adds quite a few more days than it actually takes, so I haven't adjusted anything, but I also check my accounts daily to manage things.
Hello! I have recently opened a shop and had gotten a few views, but no sales. I have created a new design (In Canva) but I am not sure if I should take the leap to sell it with a custom print. Do you really believe it is worth it? Thanks for the great channel & videos :)
Do you have to change the shipping/fulfillment to manual or anything like that or can we leave it as automatic and still be able to edit it before Printify makes it?
HELP!!! I get stuck at the point of your video 9:29. When I go back to Canva to change the design from the original design that shows up on Etsy ( ex. Mrs. Custom ) to my personalized order, I can't remove the "custom example" part and fill in the text that the customer wants! You just click on the text box with "custom" on it and fill in the ordered text. I can't do that. The text box for "custom" doesn't seperate from the whole design. What am I doing wrong????
Hi again hannah 😊 I started a week ago and so far I have published 102 designs on Typublic and 13 designs on Teesprin. Is there any advice you can give me and am I on the right path or not? And thanks for everything in advance ♥♥♥💓
I've done regular listings and Am leaping into personalized ones. Under Production partners, I have Printify listed. I noticed you have the actual printers... do I need to change my partners?
what is your canvas size for creating your design? I typically use 5000 pixels x 5000 pixels. I've never done that thing at the end where you increased the size 2.5 times, is that something you always do?
Thankfully with Printify, since you can adjust the canvas, it doesn't matter too much what size you start with. I started my POD journey on Amazon and got used to the t-shirt size they required, but 5000x5000 is great. Since Canva doesn't let you adjust the dpi, I typically will increase the size before downloading. However, I have also done it without too and the results are not bad either--just a little better quality the other way. If you are using a design tool like Kittl where you can change the dpi, you wouldn't have to do this.
@@hannahebeling If I wanted to do the same then I would make the canvas 5000 x 5000 and then once done designing I would do the 2.5 x and that should be more than sufficient, right? Just making sure I got it. I'm going to try kittl next week. Right now I use canva and picmonkey and picmonkey does export at 300 dpi and 5000 x 5000 but I notice depending on how big or small I make the design on the actual shirt, it changes the dpi in printify.
@@hannahebeling can you tell me I started a week ago and so far I have published 102 designs on Typublic and 13 designs on Teesprin. Is there any advice you can give me and am I on the right path or not? And thanks for everything in advance ♥♥♥💓
What if you have an item that is optional for personalization? I learned to remove the sku from printify on your Etsy listing and add your own sku so if the customer wants to buy without the customization how does that work? I’m still a bit confused after watching different videos on this. And what happens if you have hundreds of orders? I guess in that case you’d have to use Hello custom? Do you have your orders on manual or 24 hrs? Thanks.
I’m starting to get more into the personalized listing arena now and trying to find the best method. I noticed that you made your Etsy and Printify listing separate, which is pretty normal, but what I noticed is that Etsy wasn’t requiring a SKU of any kind. My questions are, does Etsy allow you to do this and still Publish the Listing? And is this what sends the order to the “Other Orders” tab on Printify, which prevents it from being auto submitted?
When doing the listing in Printify, do you duplicate that listing each time you get a personalized order for that same shirt? Is it best to only offer one color shirt in that one listing?
Thanks so much for your interest! Right now I am not offering one on one meetings, but I am planning to have an intensive course on POD released in the next couple months. I will definitely keep you posted when this is available.
@@hannahebeling OK. thanks. But what I'm actually looking for, should you ever decide to do it, is the ability to ask you some very specific questions regarding my personal situation/work-flow that I wouldn't get in a course. If you ever change your mind and can offer this, please let me know!
If I have my order approval set to manual in printify is it okay if I create the listing in printify and sync it to etsy, rather than creating a new listing in etsy first? Then once I receive the order I could go edit the order in printify and import the customer's design before clicking "send to production"?
Hi, Great question, it seems easier listing on Printify first, then push it to Etsy, then personalize on Printify once an order comes in. A lot of the UA-cam Channels are doing it the same way you explained it though. Your explanation made it clearer, not sure which way I will do it once I get started on Etsy. Your video was very helpful, thanks!
but im wondering if for example you get 100 sales in one day. does that then mean that you have to personalize 100 designs? im afraid that i would not have enough time for that. or is there any other way to solve this?
hey just double checking, is there anything i must complete in settings to make sure that this order actually comes through to my printify or will it automatically come through cause my etsy store is connected with the printify
Thank you, this video helped so much. Do you also create group listing shirts on Etsy first and then push them through the same way in Printify. I created some group listing shirts with so many different phrases and it took forever to load the SKU numbers. Seems like this way would save so much time.
I discovered that you have to put in a custom sku number for the listing entire listing so it goes to Other Orders. That way when you go to fulfill the order you can replace the items as shown here. Keeping the the regular sku numbers will have it go to your normal orders and you won't be able to replace the item with the personalized option.
Some people just put printify as the provider instead of the actual manufacturer. I think it doesn’t really matter too much, I just like to get a little more specific.
I’m terrified to sell custom items, afraid to make mistakes since it takes a lot more steps. Hannah, what do you think about using “Hello Custom?” I’m considering using them but I can’t videos where regular Etsy shops use them and giving a reviews.
I am just wondering, If I want to sell personalised and non personalised items all through POD, will they print and ship the non personalised items before I get to complete the personalised order? Hope that makes sense, or if it has a personalised (draft) item they will wait for you to confirm the order before printing/shipping?
Hannah where are you finding the information for personalization? i didn't catch that spot in the video sorry ...is it under "Personal details" that's blurred out?
I actually published it for her to order, but now I need to personalize 23 shirt's I have everything ready but it' not in the other folder, I can still edit the shirt's right before they go to print tomorrow morning??? I'm freaking out..Thank you for the help 🥰
Please see my comment below, but I also want to ask, does custom orders show up on your Etsy dashboard as an order? I know that it doesn't go to regular orders on Printify until you complete the order. So how do you know that you have a custom order? Thanks Loubrooks
5:40 Isn't it enough to write printify as my production partner? thats what i've heard. you shouldnt have to put swiftPOD or Monster Digital or someone else? thats a whole other step/click, i dont have time for that :P
@@hannahebeling I got it figured out, was up until 11 lol but it got finished, I need to watch this again and see how you got the order to go into the other file LOL that was my mistake long story short! 23 Baseball parent's shirt's COMPLETED 🥰🥰🤪🤪🤪 THANK YOU AGAIN!-April🥰
Hannah this is very informational and thank you for all of your effort and teaching. No offense but you go way too fast for someone who has never done the variations and I would have liked to learn how to put the different sizes in and have you explain what you are doing and why. People who haven't done it like you need someone to walk through it slower. It's obvious you're very well practiced and it comes easily to you because you've done it over and over, but for those of us who haven't its like leaving my head spinning.
Loved this video,Hannah! How many listing does it normally take to start generating full-time income on Etsy?Going into 2023, I feel being successful on Etsy will be purely a numbers game( quantity + quality) and superior digital marketing skills with the amount of sellers joining every month in practically the same niches and using the same research tools(erank,everbee,merch informer,sales samurai etc.) so I am curious to know your thoughts on this, thanks.
That's a great question and it's hard to pinpoint exactly how many listings it would take one person. Even if you had 2000+ listings, but they were all in niches that didn't have demand, you might not make tons of sales. In my experience, going after low-comp, high-demand niches when I started getting into having 500+ listings, I started to actually make more of a sustainable amount every month. But there are people too who only have 50-100 listings but have marketed themselves and sell tons of a specific product every day that make more than a full time income.
@@hannahebeling Thank you for such a detailed response, Hannah! Going into 2023,Do you think it is better to build a niche store and thereby create a strong social media presence across various marketing channels like Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest and Tiktok compared to creating a general POD store on Etsy? I found many niche POD stores in various niches that are doing well on Etsy and also have a social media profile and Shopify store for diversification purposes but I am yet to find a single general POD store on Etsy that also has a Shopify store and social media channels For it. If you know of any such general POD store, I would really appreciate if you can let me know, I was just curious.Thanks!

Wonderful job Hannah. I was a bit apprehensive, but this video helped a lot.

What are the names of the fonts you used for the personalized design?
Thank you for sharing this. Btw I want to ask if you know this. When I make a design, I want to use my own color palette, but on Printify they already set up a default color. I was wondering if there is a way to choose the color that we want for the design

Love all your content and emails. When you decide on a niche to target, say book worms ..how many listing do you put for that one niche ?
Sometimes I’ll make a handful of unique designs, maybe 10+, and then if I get traction in even one of those, I’ll start uploading even more in that niche.

If you integrate with Printify, they auto-populate all that info for you.

Do you include shipping in the 25.99 ?
I typically charge shipping on my products!
Lost Me 🤪 I’ll watch rerun !
When I do regular listings on Etsy..it's already marked for printify..doing the swift pod instead of printify is only for customized shirts???
Some people just put printify as the provider instead of the actual manufacturer. I think it doesn’t really matter too much, I just like to get a little more specific.
The only thing is navigating on Etsy but it will get better lm still nervous but as l watch your videos you make it easy 💜
Thanks so much!

Hello Hanna, I have tried today to follow this video but its not the same on my Etsy Dashboard!! Help!!$
If there are areas that have changed, let me know what they are and I can make an updated video eventually.

Hello,
how do I set up payment with Etsy. I tried adding the routing and account number from CashApp and Paypal and none worked.
I have a tutorial on how to set up your Etsy account here on my channel that walks through setting up payment. I’m not sure that Etsy allows cash app.
Hannah where are you finding the information for personalization? i didn't catch that spot in the video sorry ...is it under "Personal details" that's blurred out?
This will show up in the order details section as well as you can see what personalization was chosen on Etsy in your orders tab.
This will show up in the order details section as well as you can see what personalization was chosen on Etsy in your orders tab.
what if someone asks for something that's trademarked? not like in your product in the video with names obviously, but as a custom quote or saying?
You can message them and let them know the situation and allow them a chance to change what they say or cancel the order.
How do I change the order in printify to reflect that a customer orders more than one of the same custom design with different customizations?
You will manually have to create two orders and push them through.
I received a custom order on Etsy but it’s not showing up in printify. What can I do to fix this issue?
It can sometimes take multiple hours for an order to come through. Try checking again later.
I actually published it for her to order, but now I need to personalize 23 shirt's I have everything ready but it' not in the other folder, I can still edit the shirt's right before they go to print tomorrow morning??? I'm freaking out..Thank you for the help 🥰
Yes, you should be able to edit them. Make sure you have your orders set to manual review so they don’t go through without you letting them.
I wish I found your channel sooner!
Please see my comment below, but I also want to ask, does custom orders show up on your Etsy dashboard as an order? I know that it doesn't go to regular orders on Printify until you complete the order. So how do you know that you have a custom order? Thanks Loubrooks
5:40 Isn't it enough to write printify as my production partner? thats what i've heard. you shouldnt have to put swiftPOD or Monster Digital or someone else? thats a whole other step/click, i dont have time for that :P

It can be tricky in competitive niches, that's why I typically suggest going for smaller niches that have low-competition.

But there are people too who only have 50-100 listings but have marketed themselves and sell tons of a specific product every day that make more than a full time income.
@@hannahebeling Thank you for such a detailed response, Hannah! Going into 2023,Do you think it is better to build a niche store and thereby create a strong social media presence across various marketing channels like Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest and Tiktok compared to creating a general POD store on Etsy? I found many niche POD stores in various niches that are doing well on Etsy and also have a social media profile and Shopify store for diversification purposes but I am yet to find a single general POD store on Etsy that also has a Shopify store and social media channels For it. If you know of any such general POD store, I would really appreciate if you can let me know, I was just curious.Thanks!
How does the listing get sent to "other"? You didn't go through that. Do you have to change the SKU to fiction?
wow, great video. thanks so much
