Yes it does. Also, if you're using Photoshop, make sure to select 'Preserve Details 2.0.' The other upscaling options just don't match the quality-I’ve tested them all. I created a picture for my father a few weeks ago, and it came out perfect, even at 24x36.
I love your work. I have learned a lot from you being a new Etsy seller. And I watch every single video. I have mixed feelings about this video lol. On one hand I was jumping up and down that you showed my listing on your video...On the other hand, I hope that your viewers create their own original work and don't copy what you showed.
My reply is not appearing - I completely agree! I never condone copying other people's designs-only using them for inspiration. Even with the AI prompts I'm providing, I mentioned in both the video and my email that I want people to tweak them and make them their own.
My reply is not appearing - Email me; I'd love to know which piece is yours! I only showcase items I think look amazing, so now I'm super curious! Also, I found a company that helps protect original designs that I can share with you, just in case anyone does try to take your art.
Hi Geroge, thanks for this video, It gave me a lot of information about a project I'm developing right now. About resizing images, could you tell me if the resample option of Photopea works as the one in Photoshop? I use Photopea and I'd like to be sure that I am resizing my images without loosing quality.
I haven't personally used Photopea, so I don't want to steer you in the wrong direction. Could you send me a few screenshots (EtsyMentors@gmail) of the resizing options? That way, I can help you figure out the best way to maintain the resolution.
I know you are the Etsy Mentor but what about other platoforms as well? I think for people outside of Etsy the challenge is how to be found for the products you have.
I also sell on Amazon, Michaels, and Walmart, though I’m most familiar with Etsy. I've run my own websites too, but driving traffic can get expensive, which is why I prefer using platforms that are already established with active customers. So, if you have any questions about those, feel free to email me.
Another great video. Thank you so much. Question: When selling digital prints, what are your recommendations for file format options? For example, should I offer as many options as possible or just whichever I can offer through my own software. I offer transparent PNG & SVG, JPEG and PDF. I've noticed some of the big sellers offer just one, whilst others offer multiple. Thank you in advance.
What you are currently offering is perfect. It provides variety. I believe in offering as many options as possible since you never know which program someone might use.
@@EtsyMentor Thank you so much for your prompt reply. I really appreciate it 🙏🏾 I've been playing around with your free AI prompt. It's been hard trying to steer away from the aesthetic of your design, however I've now got something similar but different if that makes sense! 😂
That’s totally fine. The beauty of art is that you can have 50 different pieces of the same subject, like a tree, and each one will be unique. In the end, the buyer will choose the one that resonates with them the most.
George may I ask if u could do a "series of videos teaching us to research products and learning competition etc example after example till we really get it..this is most important..then one can let loose designing
@EtsyMentor maybe like maybe 6 to 8 general products and then under them 6 to 8 different niches in each and explain "why" this is good product/ niche and another is not. U know when we learned math, we did one after another until we understood.. what is too high in competition for example? I'm understanding we don't flip from product to product...makes sense. Then we research 1 product's cost and profit, then find trend niches in it. Maybe think like a student is on computer sitting in front of you on a Sunday afternoon trying to learn how to find a good product to invest time in, step by step.. and like u say tshirts are overdone. I want to sell 1 product for now, KNOW it in and out, competition of it, trends now on it and be tedious and consistant (can u tell I'm a research nut?) I was in advertising yrs ago, folks don't know 95% of selling a product is KNOWING that product, competition, trends of it, other uses for it, how to present it to targeted markets. So I and maybe others here would like to really learn how to get every bit of info from everbee and erank....like all the different columns monthly sales, monthly revenue, months selling etc ..1 to pick the initial product 2. Keep coming back combing for stats on it regularly. Advertising teaches time "researching"saves TONS of time for u by KNOWING that product BEFORE u invest time trying to sell it..researching is just "learning" about that product, competition and profit. If ud kindly teach us how to ANALYZE all sorts products one after another we'd learn... like those math problems over and over... for any product and niche we want to investigate Id be very grateful (i'm one of those burned out 9 to 5 folks in an extreme pressurer cooker job) Whew this is long..sorry, but so fundamental to learn "quickly" without days of bumbling and trail and error that takes up precious time causing give up even just to start. Love ya George, thank u so kindly...Tiger too 💓
@EtsyMentor ps don't pay any attention to the trolls...these are not people that would NEVER put in the hours and hours it takes to actually build a business..they mock ur suggesting make a million easily when in fact ur showing a potential ....with proof of stats....it can be done..u never ever say poof done easily...just with this product how you can try it. In fact, they clicked off here for they ARE looking for the easy way to make millions!
I’ll definitely figure out a way to include as many videos like that as I can for you! And thank you so much for your kind words, I truly appreciate them. I also know exactly what you mean with the trolls; everyone’s looking for an easy way to make millions, but if it were that simple, we’d all be rich. This video took a bit of heat because of the AI topic, but that’s the direction technology is headed. I just want to make sure people don’t get left behind as things evolve. Oh well, lol!
@EtsyMentor my art teach back in the day told us not to fear the computer..it's a tool that's all..creativity is in the mind...opps hummm maybe in the AIs mind now is what folks fear!..OK now that's scarey! Appreciate all ur help to us George even tho Tiger takes u for granted
ChatGPT uses DALL-E to generate images, it's integrated into the system. I was using version 4o in the video. The mini version does not allow you to create images.
Would you say it's worth to pay the $30 suscription to midjourney? I also used the canva AI but the size is always a problem, i resize everything in photoshop but it's not detailed enough, i've seen better quality and sizes on MDJ but $30.... I don't really know. Great video as always!
I haven’t tried out Midjourney since their latest update, so I can’t really say if it’s better or not. I do plan to test it out for a future video where I'll compare all the tools. As for Photoshop, make sure to select the 'Preserve Details 2.0' option when upscaling, otherwise it can make everything look grainy. This option uses AI to upscale and helps maintain the best possible resolution quality.
It’s absolutely possible, but it does take work. There’s a jewelry store that has grossed over $100 million. Not kidding. Here's a video I released where I break down how much I made in a month, and this is just from one shop: ua-cam.com/video/Vx6axMdCgs0/v-deo.html.
Nice video, but I'm sorry, at least from my experience and research: the Etsy marketplace is saturated with these AI designs because everyone is making the same video as this one. The only ones making money off of this are the people who create content like this video.
From being in this space I agree that you are right, its EXTREMELY competitive. And if you don't have a good eye for design or graphic designing experience I would say its very hard to make any sales. Yes everyone is making the same designs but not every design is the same and majority of them never make any sales. However, if you have talent, its a different story.
You could say the same when everyone’s showing you how to use Canva to make a design. Meanwhile, Canva has 130 million active users, all with access to the same free designs. At least with AI, what you create can vary widely depending on what you type, allowing you to make something truly unique. And what @fp4625-m8b says is spot on-everywhere you go will be competitive. That’s why some people make money and others don’t. Those looking for a handout will never succeed, but those who put in the work will.
Another UA-cam clickbait title! 😡 There's nothing 'easy' about making almost $10,000 per month with AI art. 99% of all people on Etsy make less than one tenth of this amount per month in all categories. Unsubscribed to ANOTHER channel, sigh!! 🤨

I need to know how to do this!! :) Do you have a video on how to come up with these?
The cat on the chair is cracking me up!
The way she ended the night with her legs up had me cracking up when I turned around. There she was, relaxing while I kept on working! 😂
Another great video George. I'm surprised by the amount of negative comments it got. Please don't let them get you down too much!
Thank you! Not everyone likes change.
I came across your videos a few days ago love them very informative.
I'm glad you like them! If you ever have any questions, definitely let me know!
I just love your cat, so relaxed!!! Awwwww 🥰
She needs to get a job lol
Love watching your videos, always learn something. Would love to see a video about selling supplies on etsy.
I’ll add this to the list for you! It might take me a few weeks, but I’ll work on getting something out.
Thank you so much for these videos, is the upscale you did on that video work for the largest size offered?
Yes it does. Also, if you're using Photoshop, make sure to select 'Preserve Details 2.0.' The other upscaling options just don't match the quality-I’ve tested them all.
I created a picture for my father a few weeks ago, and it came out perfect, even at 24x36.

Great tips! Thanks!

@@EtsyMentor Just did, thanks!!
How do you make different mockups?
The ones in the video were made using real photos. I used Photoshop to crop them into the photo.
I know you are the Etsy Mentor but what about other platoforms as well? I think for people outside of Etsy the challenge is how to be found for the products you have.

Absolutely, I can add that to the list for you! Is there anything specific you want to see, or are you looking for a general overview of all products?

Hello , what AI system was used ?
In the video, I used ChatGPT, but the prompts I’m sending via email can work with any AI system that generates images.
@@EtsyMentor thanks , I got ChatGPT which provides information but do you have a link for the one that creates images ?
ChatGPT uses DALL-E to generate images, it's integrated into the system. I was using version 4o in the video. The mini version does not allow you to create images.
got a link to the Etsy shop?
Would you say it's worth to pay the $30 suscription to midjourney? I also used the canva AI but the size is always a problem, i resize everything in photoshop but it's not detailed enough, i've seen better quality and sizes on MDJ but $30.... I don't really know. Great video as always!

Thanks for the Nice video
You're welcome!
why is it when I do this its never this easy. I have a pc and Photoshop looks different... *mutters and goes back to it LOL
Which PS do you have? I’m using 2024.
This video upscaled with AI falls on the uncanny valley
Your link takes you to something unrecognizable.
Fixed it-the link works now. Sorry about that! I updating the domain and it broke the original link.
@@EtsyMentor thank you
Are people making this sort of money or pulling numbers outa thin air.?

It's just bullshit. You sell nothing on Etsy. They don't tell you that you need 100s or 1000s for ads!
Printify is meant to be terrible for printing
I’ve had no issues with Printify, and I’ve been using them for years. Which product or production partner were you working with?

The title is based on the company that hit that amount in just 3 months... I actually show them throughout the video.
While it is not easy by any means, it is possible for people who have talent and drive.
Lame, and bullshit.
Don't believe 1 word
