Thank you for doing this. I recently created my LLC, biz banking the whole nine yards to sell on Etsy and was immediately blocked. My long term goal was always to sell on Shopify and use the Etsy funds to smooth the educational glidepath anticipating I would have some bumps along the way (which always seem to cost money). I've immediately subbed here and am now working on that course. Unreal timing. Thank you Chris and thank you Philip for doing this interview.
Dear Chris! That was so valuable!! I also wish for a business start with a specific communication like you had with your 12 people. 💪🏻It was a huge start for you! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge, I just started my POD smart and true infos are what’ve need to get my biz successful. 😊 🙌🏻 you are amazing!
Awesome video! I just began watching Chris‘ 20+ h video, but don’t have the time rn to get through so I‘m gonna watch bit by bit. And then I saw that my fave POD YT creator has Chris in an interview, so this is double whammy super content. Thanks guys.
This interview was mindblowing because I am right now at the start with my POD business and am thankful for both of you to show paths what are achievable. No limits , just keep doing. Thank you so much! It is so much value inside and his conversation 🙌🏻🫶🏻
Very good tips for any entrepreneur especially those trying with the digital realm. Thank you both! Surprised at the negativity in the comments. But moving along!
thank you so much! please answer this: i can't creat a store on shopify because of payment getway. in my country i need stripe so i need LLC. BUT can creat a shop n zazzel and driving trafic to it through facebook ads. it is a good ideas to build a business or i have to use shopify?? thank you
You don't have to use shopify. Print on demand also works on other platforms like zazzle. Chris just recommends shopify for various reasons but it's not the only way
Think my previous reply was flagged cause I put a link to a google sheet profitability calculator. But great question and the TLDR is our CAC is ~$17 and we sell tees for $26.99 + shipping and our AOV is 1.7 shirts. (Which substantially lowers our COGS)
Thanks for having me on, Philip! Hope there’s some useful bits in here for people.
some? bro all of this is valueable, thank you and god bless you Chris! you both are awesome!
Thank you man, this is valuable!

I’m curious about his critique of Printful. I thought it was more consistent than Printify, but maybe not as cheap.
yeah good point I should have asked more follow up questions
thank you so much!

@@PhilipAnders thank you😄
The margin on POD products are so low. How are you able to maintain a profit or good return on ad spend with FB ads? @ChrisHeckman

@@ChrisHeckman Thanks for the video (and your channel), very informative! What percentage off the GM would you use for operational costs etc? Thx.
@@Ciaran-pc2lc Great question! We aim to keep our overhead costs around 2-4% of gross sales (i.e - $100k /month in sales = $2-$4K for overhead)
