It actually inspires me to see content creators fail at things! Why? It just shows that it’s not as easy as everything seems like when you’re an influencer or content creator. Thanks for sharing, Daniel!
yea but this is supposed to be a realistic view of this niche hustle. 99% of people do not have a youtube channel with such a large fanbase as this one, so that wouldn't be realistic if he took advantage of that
If you ever do this again one tip. NEVER run FB ads with the goal of get website visitors. Always run with conversions as the objective, optimizing towards purchase. Web visitor optimization floods your site with a poor quality audience.
Facebook ads are like billboards in the street as you drive. They're there, they may catch your attention, but they are NOT why you are there. Zero buyers intent
Might depend on different geographic with the Facebook ads. Ofc in the Western where TikTok, UA-cam, IG, Twitter and Reddit are the dominating platform. In the Asia, especially in my country, Vietnam, FB is the most used social media channel and most of the businesses here run fb ads
What i love most about these experiments is that you aren't using your own established platforms for marketing. If you told us "HEY I started print on a demand and you can buy tshirts!" You'd get some sales for sure (I like the buy the F* dip one!). But it seems that you are starting as 'one of us', which is rad. Also, i thought your reddit ads were brilliant. It's such a pity they were sticky about it.
Only true hustlers will understand the value of this video. Well done! The best thing besides being completely transparent and humble, is that you showed a side of the process that not many dare to explore.
With what you are saying at the end about maybe having someone make better ads, I think that could make difference, only because when I had to study online marketing and that sort of thing, I was surprised at how small changes to ads, ad targets, and a website made a huge difference. One of the biggest things was consistent imagery across platforms. If people click on an ad, they expect to see a site that essentially looks the same as the colours in the ad, or have similar phrases etcetera. This consistency seems to make a big difference in my experience
The mug looks super good! Love it :). Since you mentioned Gildan being the brand that the print on demand was using, I just wanted to add that when I was working as a Buyer for a company that printed shirts and many other things, we used Gildan as well. We could bulk order for about $1.05 Canadian per shirt. Knowing that, it always sort of irks me seeing these print on demand places charge anything for samples that they send to creators. I understand that it is likely where they get a large portion of their revenue from, but it has always left a bad taste in my mouth
I went through this process in 2016 with a similar experience. Didn’t really know what I was doing but was great fun learning. I kept learning and eventually picked up a good bit of web design experience. Then realised the business was in actually building the websites. Set up in Feb 2020 and now looking to take on my first employee (after hiring a few freelancers). It’s surprising where the journey can take you. Absolutely got my sub for this video - would love to have an update on how many sales have been made due to this video!
Love your channel I always tried things for a side hustle, love your honesty and the most realistic outcomes for start up hustles. That's why my side hustle is painting houses, I paint for a couple people that flip houses. My side hustle makes more then my fulltime job now.
Daniel is one of the best creators in this finance and money making niche on youtube . I have probably been watching him since he was at around 10k - 20k subs . Keep growing daniel 🔥
The intrnet is filled with so many success stories. This is very entertaining to watch a real story. I will keep watching your chanel with great interest.
Your .22 is right on the money for conversion. It’s pretty well know in display advertising that you can expect 2 per 1000. The more targeted the ad the higher the conversion. Hence the value of user data.
I love these videos man, they are so realistic keep doing them! (You don't have to spend $1000 every experiment haha). I always wanted to have my own POD store as an extra form of income so I find this video and your last one very insightful as all the other videos by POD gurus feel too good to be true or their methods seem spammy/sketchy. Anyone idea for you is to set up a new UA-cam channel using voiceovers + script writers + video editors from Fiverr. I saw it done elsewhere and I thought it was an interesting concept
Thank you for the notes it's not easy starting a project. I'm amazed at what you accomplished and hopefully one day I can get my project off the ground. I learned a lot from this.
love the vids. so the lesson to be learned is stop jumping on bandwagons and build a brand you are willing to stand behind and build up at a loss over years because you believe in it/& you know its cool in the long run?
First time watching your videos. Really great quality of editing and high value content.💪 The info us pretty good and the ads in reddit are pretty high.
Hahaha I love your videos because you are basically doing everything that I’ve tried as well 😂 What I’ve learned during at least 10 years of different projects and businesses: I’m not really in it for success, I just really like learning new stuff and try them out.
Man that mug is so cool I want one and I'm sure I'm not the only one. Right after writing that comment I'm gonna search for my credit card 😛 By the way it would be very interesting to see/know, if that video on UA-cam helped you generate more sales ! Could you talk about it maybe in another upcoming video ? That would be great and I'm sure your community would Looove to see that ! 🙂 We always, as a viewer, like to know or see if we can have an (even small) impact or ripple effect on one UA-camr's journey, and we love to follow, help them and most importantly be a part of that entire process 🙂 For that project, maybe tiktok and / or Instagram were the roads to follow here since Reddit was so strict with its advertisement on this one ! (Maybe it wouldn't have been approved neither tho, nothing is certain). I will definitely drink my morning coffee served in that mug anytime soon while watching you're next new video 🙂 Thanks for another great video full of informations and things to lean from ! Can't wait to see the next one 🙂
This was well done - appreciate the overview. I'm in the midst of setting up a POD shop so this came at a good time. It seems like to be successful with POD (and most things in life) you need to keep at it without sinking too much money into it. I was actually impressed you were able to make some sales, I think given you only spent $100+ on FB ads you might have had more luck sinking that entire ad budget into FB. I will keep watching for more content!
@@DanielInskeep Oh that's even more impressive as FB tends to be a high return channel, good job man! Obviously this was just an experiment for you, but do you get the sense that if you kept at it for a 6-12 months and were willing to operate at a loss for a bit - that this could eventually become a good business? Or is it too much of a volume game and the margins too thin?
I literally watched my process of opening my T-Shirt store. Went through the same stuff and it was a failure but learnt Shopify, FB Ads in the process so wouldn't say it was a complete failure.
Very interesting video! As someone who works in advertising - Reddit is definitely not the play. Completely understandable how you might think it’d make sense for this niche. But Reddit is really more of a top of funnel awareness play. Not so much for driving conversions. Loved the vid tho man, keep it up
Very informative! I think this is a great lesson in why content marketing matters. Had you become a thought leader, or the host of the subject driving those conversations you might have seen a huge demand in sales - without the need to advertise - because buying is seen as a way to be a part of the community or a way to support the creator. Example: You'll probably see more impact from this video series then the ads you ran because people are buying into 'you'
Never know what it takes until you try! Think of everything you learned, far more valuable. Keep going for it, you know what happens when preparation meets opportunity!!!!
I work for someone who has been successfully selling graphic tees online for the past 20 years and the biggest thing I've noticed is that the designs need to be something someone would buy as a gift for someone else. I would say 90% of shirt sales that we do are gifts for another person as a birthday gift, for father's day, mother's day, christmas, or an aspect of their identity (musician, motorcyclist, gun lover, UFO enthusiast, sasquatch lover, gardener, teacher, nurse, book lover). If you don't know where to start with designs, start with animals. Everyone has a favorite animal and it works for a variety of age ranges and genders. The best place to sell is through your own website which you will need to invest in google ads to get people to it. The other percentage of sales will be through Amazon and Etsy which you will want to run ads on too. We do the bare minimum when it comes to social media ads. It's just a quick slideshow video of some of our top sellers with our website listed at the bottom. We run this on Facebook and Instagram.
I am just starting my journey and it is certainly a lot more complex than the gurus make out. Followed a similar path to yours, but I am hoping for a different result. Anyway, I have not over capitalized, so I will move on to idea number 2 if this is a bomb. At least I have learned a lot on the way.
oh wow... seems I actually did more sales then you when I did my "I survived 2020" T-shirts at the beginning of this year... but I only sold like... 5 or so shirts... so yeah pretty much about the same in terms of results on my end.
btw my issue was I dropped the ball on properly advertising (as in I wasn't able to properly do it or anything so the only conversions I got were from friends and family...) and I also ran into a bit of a timing issue myself. If I were to do it again I'd want to build an audience with the brand first by doing some sort of media and then market to the audience of that media with merch afterwards.. a lot more work.. but hey I do more artwork primarily..
I started with one shirt as a test case... a whopping $0.00 in sales LOL... The idea is fun, but it is not going to allow me to quit my day job anytime soon haha. Great video! I appreciate the honesty!
Make a throw away reddit account and make posts on wsb about something like returns on your options trades, just wear the shirts in the pictures, and when they ask about them that’s when you share the link
Why use Printify as opposed to Amazon Merch and/or Threadless? You can choose the type of shirt, such as soft or premium. Amazon Merch is free to set up, and if you get some sales, you can move up in their rankings. They also can get you in their international stores, such as Amazon UK, ES, IT, FR, and JP. Even without a great design if you get someone's attention you will make sales. We sell a bunch of "You're Muted" t-shirts and never advertised.
Heyya just wanted to give a small tip never put black on black or white on white when doing t shirts, as it most likely will not show up at all. Also if you were to put black on a black mug it may turn out green. That is just from the experience i have had though its possible with different suppliers comes different ink and better quality
For facebook, always go for conversion as the goal which will target people who actually purchase through ads. I would have tried TikTok as it is free and can reach a larger audience.
I don't know why we're still holding onto the $20 for a t-shirt norm. I've been paying $20 for t-shirts since the 90s and I think it's long past time to normalize charging at least $5 or $10 more for shirts. Inflation is a reality... except in t-shirt land, I guess.
Thank you great video, I'm researching this whole thing generally, I notice Printify is mentioned a lot as the preferred vendor for POD. I was just researching some examples... they have bound notebooks... the pricing per unit seems reasonable but the shipping is an eye-watering 12 dollars for the first unit. Plus 3 more dollars for each additional notebook. That's $15 shipping on two little notebooks. I understand shipping cost is a decision to be made, but man that must cut deep into margins. If you do free shipping and they buy one unit, you are literally paying them to take it for free. Am I missing something? What are some strategies for managing shipping in overall price structure?
this is more like how I would think the majority of etsy/printify stores are like. Simply due to the oversaturation of these marketplaces, it might not be worth doing unless youre in it for fun or you want to wait months or years for your prominence in the algorithms to build. I've wanted to open my own shop, but realistically I'd probably end up getting a handful of sales over the span of months..
Hey man great video, just want to give you some pointers, to begin with tshirts just dont have the margins needed to run ads, you should have a minimum of 20$ margin per product to make money with ads which you didnt, when it comes to pod you have to be clever in what you sell and how you sell it, just taking a trendy design and slapping it on a tshirt wont work, try something like a custom made flag with the same design concept. But over all your attempt was good and you got on well with the ads but im sure you have some issues there which can be easy to solve, dont hire someone to do it just watch some dropshippin videos on yt on how to set up your campaigns and maybe give it another shot, love the videos and i hope you can make some more
The transparency behind this is so humbling. Thank you for not being afraid to learn in front of us Daniel.
It's not that deep bro
@@tobiasr.3385 it rlly is man
The approach and his voice are so soothing!
It actually inspires me to see content creators fail at things! Why? It just shows that it’s not as easy as everything seems like when you’re an influencer or content creator.
Thanks for sharing, Daniel!
Very inspiring. Most creators hide failure to the max even though it's part of everyone's experience.
I think this video will sell more shirts for you than those ads
my thoughts exactly. And $10 international shipping is not bad.
yea but this is supposed to be a realistic view of this niche hustle. 99% of people do not have a youtube channel with such a large fanbase as this one, so that wouldn't be realistic if he took advantage of that
If you ever do this again one tip. NEVER run FB ads with the goal of get website visitors. Always run with conversions as the objective, optimizing towards purchase.

Conversions are not always the best objective, it depends on your goals, resources you have and risks willing to take.

Nice to know I'm not the only person failing at POD
Great learning at setting it all up though! Think if it as paying for a course
The reason he failed is cause what he is selling has no identity, no meaning... the designs look something out of 2005, i'm surprised he made money.

Hey man great video, just want to give you some pointers, to begin with tshirts just dont have the margins needed to run ads, you should have a minimum of 20$ margin per product to make money with ads which you didnt, when it comes to pod you have to be clever in what you sell and how you sell it, just taking a trendy design and slapping it on a tshirt wont work, try something like a custom made flag with the same design concept. But over all your attempt was good and you got on well with the ads but im sure you have some issues there which can be easy to solve, dont hire someone to do it just watch some dropshippin videos on yt on how to set up your campaigns and maybe give it another shot, love the videos and i hope you can make some more
Daniel, have you applied for merch by Amazon? Question… what is that slider graphic called on your videos and where can I get it?
Great video and nice lessons
Great vid though with showing the RAW journey and showing us what actually happens when launching! Legend
were those models in the beginning mock ups? or real
Is there anyway I can pay to get the rocket stonkman as a computer background/wallpaper? Maybe help cover some of those costs
Can you make a similar video on Supliful please? It's like Printful but for supplements...could be interesting
Great video!
