I’ve watched a ton of content on how to make money online - you are the ONLY person I’ve found so far who, in my opinion, is actually HONEST, genuine, AND truly interested in helping others succeed. THANK YOU!!!

You are a great tutor...I've seen more than thousands of videos on YT about make money online....actually in my opinion you are the most honest and real deal out there !!!
Greg, I glanced at the comments below just before I was about to add a comment and then I laughed. Looks like everyone is saying the same thing. Honest, straightforward, HUGE value content, and most importantly, NOT SCAMY like sooooo many others are doing. Was reluctant at first but have binge-watched about 20 of your videos now and can safely say, you are the real deal. Thank you for your integrity. You're still young but I suspect you will retire before the age of most of your viewing audience...AND YOU DESERVE ALL THE SUCCESS YOU GET. Cheers.
This channel is newly discovered for me but my early impressions are that you care about your viewers success more than selling something to us, and that is extremely refreshing to put time into watching informative videos with someone you can actually trust posting them, bravo!

THANK YOU Greg, all this content is helpful. I got sick of those “online marketing gurus” on UA-cam. Almost everyone is trying to sell you something. Even after I purchased their courses, it turned out to be crab and worthless, and they keep asking more money from me down the road. I already spent (or I would say lost) more than US$2,000 on courses, and many of them refused my request for refund. The last one was US$600 just “gone with the wind!” I lost trust in those online marketing gurus on UA-cam. I could start my own online marketing journey myself without help, but it would take me a long time to do so. My wish is to find a very honest mentor that has no drama, to provide me a step by step training program, regardless of the cost. Thank you again, Greg.
Have been loving your work Greg, also your emails. You have sincere honesty which is rare and seem you want us to succeed. I just made my first t shirt i rrally suprised myself so thank you for getting me off my poor ass and trying.

Your videos are so ‘to-the-point’, without all the usual BS and hype. Thank you soo much - only your down to earth, realistic videos have given me the confidence and belief that I too can do this.

Greg, gotta share... so I've been following you for a while and built about 60 TeeSpring designs so far, and have only done maybe 2 on Redbubble so far. Surprise, today I got a sale on Redbubble for an aviation-themed t-shirt. Pretty stoked. Baby steps...
That is so amazing to hear. This is my favorite kind of message to get! Thank you for taking the time to write this and for your support here on the channel. Nice job putting all the strategies into work :) As always, let me know if there is anything I can help with!
I have to watch this over and over... I have spent 5 weeks uploading. Teespring is out, can't do anything with their launcher, except 1 shirt at a time. I was really hoping the $1 a month was real, I have over 300 designs and have branched out to zazzle, spreadshirt and teepublic, far quicker than teespring. 270 designs on redbubble, love that site. 11 sales in 40 days, nowhere near the $1 a day, $289 shortfall there. I am not quitting, I have found something I love doing and I am addicted to it, thanks Greg. I do need more work on instagram. One more thing, I have been uploading happy and bright designs, people's photos too. I will try the niche designs once I reach the 500 mark. Great videos, a great business. People's favourite photos on bedspreads, pillows, shower curtains and coasters is a winner.
Seriously Greg, I am a UA-cam follower in search of great content on earning income online passively and that’s when I stumped upon you. So I know what I m talking. The content really is amazing and kudos to you for all the efforts and hard work. Thanks a lot. Stay blessed

Definitely think you contribute a massive amount of value. Thank you! I don't really see the $1 for each design up on a print on demand site, but I think im still figuring out niches. As a graphic designer it hurts a bit because I know my designs are decent, but I really think niches are why im not doing as great. I'll keep it up and do more niche research. Also starting an affiliate link website. Thanks again for all you do!
Thanks for taking the time to comment and I agree.. I think you're on the right path and in time, everything will work out. Having the Affiliate site going will definitely help long run while POD sorts itself out. The beginning of POD can be hard, but once you get your first few sales and the trust score kicks in and they start doing the marketing for you, the niches become a lot less important. I hope that helps and keep it up :)
I was sure you said $1/listing/site/day somewhere... Now I need to upload 1000... 985 to go. Wait, I have 2 sites (can't get into Merch yet) so that's 15 listings (so far) x 2 sites ($30 a month). I need $450 a month to live like a king here so, I need 225 listings on Teespring and 225 listings on Redbubble. That's doable. Keep it simple. Redbubble I can add a listing every 30 minutes, Teespring takes an hour+ per listing so, I will do the teespring listings first. Awesome stuff Greg, thank you for inspiring me.
Greg, you are the man. I love your content and how transparent and humble you are. I have a question, if I were to create as many designs as I wanted, would they all have to be the same niche, or could they be different from each other. I feel like it would be hard to create many designs in the same niche.
Hi Greg, thanks for all the great videos. I was wondering if you would do a new year update video, and maybe cover how the landscape has changed I'm the past couple years? Thanks again

Excellent video amen! I enjoy the way you explain and present the information. Just enough honest numbers and ballpark expectations. And I much appreciate the absense of dopamine overdose. I will look into Wix. I was a front end web developer for a tech company in Texas for three years. I built from scratch code, Wordpress and Adobe Dreamweaver for them. I'm a little new earning online but have had some early success on Redbubble but not Merch yet. My online POD has been in haitus for the winter while I do my winter job for Amazon Kindle Diagnostics in Kentucky each year but will resume my POD in two weeks and will definitely dive deeper yet into your videos etc! Thanks, James & rescue kitty 🐱
I appreciate your comments and it means a lot to hear that you are getting helpful information from the videos. I think you'll get a kick out of WIX seeing how much easier it is to put together great looking sites with it. Anyways, enjoy your day, and I hope you and your family are staying healthy and safe.
Greg just want to thank you for the great valuable content! and I recently started to watch your channel and I been trying to find ways to make money online and I came across your channel and you provide valuable content especially when you talk about how to take care of yourself while doing this kind of work, so please keep up the good work my friend!

Hi Greg, great video…again. When you create a new website for a product you want to market as an affiliate, do you also create a new email address so you can post on various social media platforms? Or do you use your personal email? Or is there another method? (ie: I was learning about Pinterest business accounts and they want a business email account). 2. Is it important to post on social media while you are creating your blog posts for the item you are affiliate marketing? 3. You mention that you are creating a WIX step by step affiliate marketing system for newbies. If I haven’t started creating a website on Wordpress yet, Would you advice waiting till you are ready to show people your new system? Thanks again for your help and knowledge! Cheers.
Thanks for the comment Keiron! You can market as many affiliate products as you want on your affiliate site (just keep all the products within the same niche). You do not need to make a new email address, you can just create a new site on your same WIX account and make a FB page from your personal FB account if you want a FB page. For Pinterest, yes you would need a new email for each account. Social media is not important, but it is a way to see quicker results. This video will explain in more detail ua-cam.com/video/r4KxIqfELkQ/v-deo.html WIX is definitely my recommendation for making the affiliate site, it's just so much easier than WordPress. I'm finalizing the WIX template now so it will likely be a week or so until it's released. If you are willing to wait another week or so, then I'd wait for it because it will be really easy to get started with. If you want to get started right away, then the video linked here will walk you through making a similar template on WIX that will still work just as well ua-cam.com/video/2FtzvcxFVRw/v-deo.html I hope that helps!
@@GregGottfried Thank you so much Greg. Yes, I will wait for your WIX template. And thanks for the info regarding social media. Again, I really appreciate all you do! Cheers!
Hi Greg! What is your take on the newly hyped Google's BERT Update? Do you think the 30+ articles formula is still going to work for a Niche Website? Or we need to update our strategy as well? If YES... what would you like to suggest? Thanks
Thanks for asking! Great question! Google s always making updates, it's only the ones that increase or decrease people income that get talked about mainstream. With that said, I think BERT is going to help us tremendously and work to our advantage big time. If anything, it will be increasing our income and help the 30 posts strategy. Essentially BERT allows us to focus on the overall topic of the site rather than the specific keyword phrases that have good opportunity to rank. This means for us, we can continue doing exactly what we've been doing, and since we are niche specific on our sites, Google will be very keen to show our articles. Great question :)
an extremely high value channel for sure! 👌 I'm getting into P.O.D. deeper and deeper and it turns out that it's something that I really enjoy doing, so...probably it's not gonna be long until some results start to show up Thanks Greg 🤝
Hello brother I am 18 year old boy from India and I got a lot of information to make money online and to learn new things from you . Thank you and keep making videos
Thank you so much Alex! I really wanted to get the content out to you guys so I'm really happy to hear that it was a good one! As always, thank you so much for the support and let me know if you have any questions at all!
I must say that you are excellent ! Everything from your simple, no nonsense presentation style to the easy to follow advice you provide. Thank you for your informative channel. Are you an artist?
Hi Greg, great video. When you suggest an income of $1,000 -$3,000 per month in 1-2 years is that off a 30 page website like you talk about in your affiliate marketing with wix video ie 10 product reviews, 10 top lists, and 10 educational posts? Or is this for larger sites. What kind of page views per month would that require? I know there is a lot of variables, I was just looking for a guide.
Great question! Yes, that is exactly right! You should be expecting about 1000 page views per article published by the year 1 mark, then more in time. Some articles may do better than others (some may average 500 per day, others may average 1500 per day) but the total should be about 30,000 views per month on a 30 article site in 1 year. I hope that helps!
@@GregGottfried Hi Greg, thanks for the reply. Did you mean average 1000 page views per month rather than per day per article? Is there a keyword search amount in kw finder that you generally aim for to get the average page views of 1000 per day per article? Do you also not use any backlinking like the guys over at Income School? Thanks for your assistance.
Nice Video, I have seen it over 5 times and hoping your logic just works for me, I have over 1000 Designs in Teespring , Redbubble and 200+ in MBA I am trying to full fill 500 slots in MBA ASAP, I barely get 20 Sells in am month, All the listings I optimized by your instruction. I really don't know why there is not sufficient traffic in my stores that generate sells.
Right on! Nice job on all those designs! The best recommendation I can give to you is to be sure you have a good graphic design tool like Placeit ua-cam.com/video/_iQnOSbMtc8/v-deo.html and a good niche research tool like merch informer ua-cam.com/video/2JI9VCIhPNI/v-deo.html Your strategy is spot on, and it should start snowballing.

Hi Greg, I heard your video that says it takes 35 weeks for affiliate marketing. Following your strategy to start a POD business, roughly about how long will it take for a POD t-shirt business to start generating sales?
Thanks for asking Mike! Yes, that's right for Affiliate Marketing. In regards to POD, it's much harder to say a standard length of time. My usual response is 'about 6 months' but that is in flux. 6 months has proven to be a good timeline for many of the students I've helped so that's my most general answer. However, with that said, I've seen sales pickup as soon as the first month! Definitely a wider spread for POD, but I hope that helps!
Thank you for taking the time to comment and for the support Laura! I really appreciate it and as always if you have any questions at all, feel free to reach out anytime!
Hi Greg, glad I found your channel, thanks for all the really great videos. You've inspired me to finally get my t-shirt business off the ground. I've followed your advice and set up several storefronts on TeeSpring (RedBubble and Merch by AMZN aren't far behind), but my question is: You emphasize that having too many color options can overwhelm people and that they are likely not to make any decision, but what is your feeling about offering the same t-shirt "saying" or "quote" but in a number of design variations (different fonts? Same saying with and without graphics? White on black? Black on white? Etc.) Is it the same idea, customers will get overwhelmed and end up choosing none? Really would appreciate your advice! RV
Great question! My plan for this is to make 1 of each in the beginning, then once you see that a design is selling very well, then make up to 5 variations of it. Black on white, vice versa, different color text, similar design same quote etc. Again, giving too many options will overwhelm but up to 5 variants on good selling designs works wonders. I hope that helps!
You can put 1k design/aff link put there, and without any type of marketing or promotion, you won't earn a single cent. Competition for traffic is harder than the Initial setup

@@GregGottfried awesome thanks. Saw you video on taxes. Great info. You have inspired me & I did actually get a license just to keep track of all the finances in one place. Thanks for all the good info you provide & helping us to weed out the truthful information from the myths.
Hey Greg I'm new to your channel so excuses my ignorance if you have mentioned this but if you pay for hosting with word or whicks can you make more than one website with the yearly fee or do you have to pay for each website you create? Thanks
No worries! Each plan is for a single site. The only exception to the is if you get the "unlimited" plan on Bluehost. Then you will just need to buy additional domains for the sites. I personally use WIX for my sites and pay $17/mo per site. I hope that helps!
Thanks for asking! These 2 business models are exactly what I would use. When I want to personally grow my income, I put more time into these as well. They can call as big as you'd like, and they are exactly how I would start from scratch too :)
If you only use Teespring, Merch by Amazon and Redbubble at $1 per site per month that means that you'd have to produce a thousand designs to make any livable passive income ($3000 a month). That's a lot of work and it seems almost insurmountable but I guess it's better to use this pessimistic figure instead of a more optimistic one in your projections. Time to get started on the thousand designs!

Great vids mate, really appreciate your advice. POD is going to be my first step with a view to move into AM. Have you got any tutorial vids on how to start AM? I'm thinking about the Dad niche specifically so would be good to know how I go about it 👍🏻 Cheers again dude!
Jennifer Schaffer Thank you so much for the support! I’ll see if I can tie it into one of the coming videos, but in the meantime I recommend always pricing your products a couple dollars below the suggested price. The rule of thumb should be that the product is priced what you would be willing to buy it for. They suggested prices are always far too high in my opinion. If you watch the print on demand tutorial linked from this video, it will refer to “video 1” and that video talks about pricing a little bit further. I hope that helps for now!

Hi, Greg! Another question. I know you who said we should set up separate T Spring stores for are different items depending on the subject, should we do the same thing on other sites like red bubble or and is on merge? Or should we just leave it in their general marketplace. Thank you again
Hi Greg. as usuall your videos are very helpful and straightforward to the point. I would like to thank you very much for your precious advice in how to get accepted in MBA . I followed your video to the T and it worked :). My problem now is I have 8 live designs on MBA, when I try to find them on Amazon I do not find them under their category . any advice my friend ?
Thanks for asking and for the support! It typically takes a while for the designs to start showing in the marketplace. There's not a whole lot we can do but give them time.. I would recommend just planning to give them up to 60 days to see if sales start coming in. If no sales within 60 days on MBA, then swap out your designs with new ones and try those for another 60 days. I hope that helps!
Hi @Greg Gottfried - I've been consuming your content for about a month now. I just made my first sale on my print on demand account yesterday! Very grateful for your advice. I have one questions - If I upload 500 designs by Jan 1, how long until I can expect to be making $500/month?
Great video yet again. I currently am running all my businesses on a custom built PC but want to start using a laptop. Which laptop would you recommend for a designer/blogger. I am constantly updating my sites so I want something that moves fast.
Thanks for asking! I am a HUGE fan of the MacBooks because they come with Preview which is a graphic design tool built into Apple computers. It saves a tremendous amount of time. Additionally, Apply computers allow you to drag and drop images from websites straight onto your desktop saving you a ton of time there as well. For POD and Affiliate Marketing, I highly recommend MacBooks. I hope that helps!
Greg, nice way to tie all that stuff up for us! So I have about 60 items on Teespring now, no sales yet. However, once I get people to my storefront via social media, how do they search for specific products in my store? Seems like search can only be done from the teespring front page and then odds of finding my stuff is slim without any sales yet.
The beginning is always going to be the hardest. Once you have your trust score, you'll be all set for the future, but in the beginning you have to really focus on the social media. There's no way to reach a storefront properly right now, so make sure that you are only putting in your best niche specific designs into the storefront where you are sending niche related traffic. This way every design will keep their attention as they scroll through your storefront. I hope this helps!
Hi you are really reliable and when I see your videos I know you really know what you are doing and fun to learn with you I want to open an affiliate marketing site you have recommended niches and I also do not want to write articles I want an Amazon style site but what do I do how people buy from me? Thanks!
Hi Greg, great video. Liked!! Question please. What if you find a course that is expensive ($1000+) which you believe is legit and it has everything in one place so that you don't have to keep hoping and jumping between various UA-cam channels. Would that be a good course for a complete beginner who is finding UA-cam University overwhelming?
Greta question! Yes, I agree with that. I'd just make sure the course has a good refund policy in case you find out that it was not worth the big price tag when compared to youtube. Good luck!

@@GregGottfried Will do brother, I'm a truck driver without a laptop, so it's a bit of a pain messing with the pod sites on a phone when away from home
Varthaer Fallen I totally understand that! Although it’s possible on a phone, everything being so small makes it a bit more difficult and time-consuming. A tablet can be the next progression before laptop if a laptop is too far out of reach right now. Once you do get your hands on a laptop, it will save a ton of time because the layouts on the sites are much easier to use than on mobile.
@@GregGottfried definitely my man. You give the motivation to atleast drive through the small print on mobile and how teespring does not like phones when creating listings, so I do appreciate that!
Hi Greg! Another great video, thanks! Question: If I create a niche-specific affiliate marketing website, won't I then have to drive viewers to the website? Otherwise, what would bring people there?
debbie herman Thanks for the comment and great question Debbie! The vast majority of your traffic for a niche specific website will come from Google. It takes on average 35 weeks from when you publish an article to your site until it is receiving nearly peak traffic from Google search results. This is the main traffic source, and it is completely free, it just takes time for your articles to show up in Google’s search results. My last video was about three ways you can drive traffic in the beginning, so that you can see quicker results while waiting to rank on Google.
@@GregGottfriedGot it, thanks! And regarding the niche of the niche-specific website, is there any need to do "niche checking" as you suggest we do for the first set of POD t-shirts we create for Teespring? And, can you give a few examples of niche-specific affiliate marketing sites, (to help generate ideas)?
Checking the niche is always a beneficial step, however I've begun going with my gut more often. What I mean by that, is thinking of a niche that I have interest in (so that I know I can keep focused) then checking Google to see if the niche is filled with really big reputable sites or if the search results are hit/miss. If the search results are hit/miss, then I go for it. That's my research now :) Check out www.dirtbikeplanet.com for a great example. I hope that helps!

I concur Kristine. All the other UA-cam channels want us to view their bs content. Gregg, on the other hand, tells like it is with honesty.
Thank you so much :)
Tell us in a year how much you made ....... Lol
I wholeheartedly agree with you!
Maaaan...
Your channel is highly undervalued!🔥
Keep going, my prediction is 500K subs in 2020😉
Wirp Thank you so much for the comment and they support! I’ve got a lot more coming for you guys, a couple big projects and a lot more videos! As always if there’s anything I can help you with, feel free to reach out anytime!
Think the same 🙌🏻
Cosmin Vințeler You guys are awesome!
He needs a million Subs 😄👏
You are a great tutor...I've seen more than thousands of videos on YT about make money online....actually in my opinion you are the most honest and real deal out there !!!
Thank you so much for taking the time to write this.. I really appreciate it, and as always let me know if there's anything I can help you with!
Greg, I glanced at the comments below just before I was about to add a comment and then I laughed. Looks like everyone is saying the same thing. Honest, straightforward, HUGE value content, and most importantly, NOT SCAMY like sooooo many others are doing. Was reluctant at first but have binge-watched about 20 of your videos now and can safely say, you are the real deal. Thank you for your integrity. You're still young but I suspect you will retire before the age of most of your viewing audience...AND YOU DESERVE ALL THE SUCCESS YOU GET. Cheers.
This channel is newly discovered for me but my early impressions are that you care about your viewers success more than selling something to us, and that is extremely refreshing to put time into watching informative videos with someone you can actually trust posting them, bravo!
Thank you for taking the time to comment and for the support Devin! I really appreciate it and as always if you have any questions at all, feel free to reach out anytime!
I started this yesterday and will be back in 2 weeks for feedback!
waiting for an update. best of luck :)
Hey me too
THANK YOU Greg, all this content is helpful.
I got sick of those “online marketing gurus” on UA-cam. Almost everyone is trying to sell you something. Even after I purchased their courses, it turned out to be crab and worthless, and they keep asking more money from me down the road.
I already spent (or I would say lost) more than US$2,000 on courses, and many of them refused my request for refund. The last one was US$600 just “gone with the wind!”
I lost trust in those online marketing gurus on UA-cam. I could start my own online marketing journey myself without help, but it would take me a long time to do so.
My wish is to find a very honest mentor that has no drama, to provide me a step by step training program, regardless of the cost.
Thank you again, Greg.
Have been loving your work Greg, also your emails. You have sincere honesty which is rare and seem you want us to succeed. I just made my first t shirt i rrally suprised myself so thank you for getting me off my poor ass and trying.
Antonia Delgado thank you so much for taking the time to write this and for the support! I’m glad to hear that all this content is helpful, and that you are starting! As you go along, feel free to reach out to me anytime you have questions!

Greg,
I began at last. Email you on other videos but I have it.
Know which paid platforms to use, download and send to Teespring and Redbubble!! My confidence is soaring! So proud of myself, thanks to You!!!!!!
Excellent! I'm excited for you. Let me know if you have any questions along the way!
I dont know why i feel you are the best fella on earth while learning and teaching
Greg, I have been ‘listening’ to so called gurus and experts online for ages. I don’t recall what made me decide to listen to one of your UA-cam vids but I am so glad I did. Your videos are so ‘to-the-point’, without all the usual BS and hype. Thank you soo much - only your down to earth, realistic videos have given me the confidence and belief that I too can do this. I’m not after a massive following or world domination, just a simple living wage online that allows me to work from home. I about to purchase your WIX affiliate website and look forward to moving forward.
Once again - thank you so much.
Charmain

Thank you for this video.
A few days ago I decided to apply for Merch by Amazon.
I followed your advice and got my acceptance notice today.
Thats awesome Stephanie!!! Congrats! You're very welcome :)
You look honest and sound honest !! Seen a lot of similar videos. Always had a gut feeling they are scams!!💕
Greg, gotta share... so I've been following you for a while and built about 60 TeeSpring designs so far, and have only done maybe 2 on Redbubble so far. Surprise, today I got a sale on Redbubble for an aviation-themed t-shirt. Pretty stoked. Baby steps...
That is so amazing to hear. This is my favorite kind of message to get! Thank you for taking the time to write this and for your support here on the channel. Nice job putting all the strategies into work :) As always, let me know if there is anything I can help with!
I have to watch this over and over... I have spent 5 weeks uploading. Teespring is out, can't do anything with their launcher, except 1 shirt at a time. I was really hoping the $1 a month was real, I have over 300 designs and have branched out to zazzle, spreadshirt and teepublic, far quicker than teespring. 270 designs on redbubble, love that site. 11 sales in 40 days, nowhere near the $1 a day, $289 shortfall there. I am not quitting, I have found something I love doing and I am addicted to it, thanks Greg. I do need more work on instagram. One more thing, I have been uploading happy and bright designs, people's photos too. I will try the niche designs once I reach the 500 mark. Great videos, a great business. People's favourite photos on bedspreads, pillows, shower curtains and coasters is a winner.
Keep going Michael! Come back and tell us when you reach your goal... and you WILL reach it, I predict. Key words: you found what you love to do!
Seriously Greg, I am a UA-cam follower in search of great content on earning income online passively and that’s when I stumped upon you.
So I know what I m talking. The content really is amazing and kudos to you for all the efforts and hard work. Thanks a lot. Stay blessed

You are such an honest young man. Thank you!
I appreciate that! Thank you so much!
DUUUUDDEE !I am so thankful I found your channel. Thanks for explaining things thoroughly with great break downs. This draws a great picture, Bravo! Many thanks again 🙌
Awesome, thank you Marco!!
@@GregGottfried Thank you Greg. You're really providing excellent value for those of us who are still in our starting/learning phase. I think I watched your video on how to not be lazy like 7xs as it really hit my emotions. I appreciate you brother. Thanks again 🙌
I can't believe this channel still having nearly 62K. I subscribed yesterday and I see numbers are growing. Also I really love the work doing by Greg. I feel like I can him trust 100%. He builds confident on us to get started. Thanks a lot and wish you all the very best!
i love how you do all of those tutorials for free you are seriously a legend
More than happy to share my knowledge with you all! Thank you for watching 👍🏼
Thanks Greg, I believe you have the most honest and straight forward videos out there for creating a real income online. I want you to know I am using your advice as a blueprint for starting my own internet business and I'm excited! I'll let you know how it goes.
Thank you for taking the time to comment and for the support...! I really appreciate it and as always if you have any questions at all, feel free to reach out anytime! I'm really glad you are going forward with these, I'm excited for you! Let me know if you need anything along the way!
Thanks for your honesty and guidance. Appreciate all your help 👍🏻👍🏻
I like your videos because it's straight to the point, no bla bla
Thanks Michael, I appreciate your comment.
Greg,
I am starting soon. What I like about your videos....
Transparecy!! No searching for answers.
Excellent! Let me know if you need anything along the way. Also, thank you for the kind words :)
Thanks Greg
I got approved by amazon merch in just 2 days and already uploaded my first two designs and promoting on quora
Right on!! Nice job and congrats! I would not suggest Quora for t-shirts, it will likely lead to banning on Quora. It's just not the right product-market fit. I hope that helps!
@@GregGottfried
Then I have one option left building a fan base on Instagram as you said in your Instagram marketing video
Focusing around one niche shirts
Hallo Greg, thanks for your Tutorial. I've just created mine first T-shirt Collection in Teespring and waiting for the first customers.
It's the first time that I've tried anything like this.
Your awesome thank you for the information and being completely honest with everything. I'm starting up my T-shirt business on Teesprings and then I will move over to affiliate marketing. I been watching a lot of your videos and you been very helpful and informative! Continue keep doing what your doing!
Thank you for taking the time to comment and for the support! I really appreciate it and as always if you have any questions at all, feel free to reach out anytime!
Thank you for this Greg, you really brought it home. I think this is what anyone new or who have been following you from the beginning needed. Thank you very much...
Markess A. Wilder It is so good to see your name Markess! I’m glad this video brought things together, and I hope it helps the more advanced viewers like yourself as well! Many more videos in the works, and a couple big projects for you guys coming soon!
Definitely think you contribute a massive amount of value. Thank you! I don't really see the $1 for each design up on a print on demand site, but I think im still figuring out niches. As a graphic designer it hurts a bit because I know my designs are decent, but I really think niches are why im not doing as great. I'll keep it up and do more niche research. Also starting an affiliate link website. Thanks again for all you do!
Thanks for taking the time to comment and I agree.. I think you're on the right path and in time, everything will work out. Having the Affiliate site going will definitely help long run while POD sorts itself out. The beginning of POD can be hard, but once you get your first few sales and the trust score kicks in and they start doing the marketing for you, the niches become a lot less important. I hope that helps and keep it up :)
I was sure you said $1/listing/site/day somewhere... Now I need to upload 1000... 985 to go. Wait, I have 2 sites (can't get into Merch yet) so that's 15 listings (so far) x 2 sites ($30 a month). I need $450 a month to live like a king here so, I need 225 listings on Teespring and 225 listings on Redbubble. That's doable. Keep it simple. Redbubble I can add a listing every 30 minutes, Teespring takes an hour+ per listing so, I will do the teespring listings first. Awesome stuff Greg, thank you for inspiring me.
Greg, you are the man. I love your content and how transparent and humble you are. I have a question, if I were to create as many designs as I wanted, would they all have to be the same niche, or could they be different from each other. I feel like it would be hard to create many designs in the same niche.
Hi Greg, thanks for all the great videos. I was wondering if you would do a new year update video, and maybe cover how the landscape has changed I'm the past couple years? Thanks again
Do you have an opinion on which does better for tees- text or graphic design?
Both do great. I've sold more text only designs that I predicted.
I have been subscribed to your channel for a while. I can't believe I missed a lot of content, I will put a structure to my learning experience here. Greg, amazing content and excellent teaching skills.
Greg, these videos are life-changing! Though I am just new to Tshirt design and has not been successful to sell yet, but your videos are pure gold. I am starting with my affiliate marketing website now. Ton of thanks! Would love to connect to you..
Greg, I stumbled upon your channel and you give such good, solid and user-friendly advice. It is much appreciated 💗
Thank you for taking the time to comment and for the support! I really appreciate it and as always if you have any questions at all, feel free to reach out anytime!
Excellent video amen!
I enjoy the way you explain and present the information. Just enough honest numbers and ballpark expectations. And I much appreciate the absense of dopamine overdose.
I will look into Wix. I was a front end web developer for a tech company in Texas for three years. I built from scratch code, Wordpress and Adobe Dreamweaver for them. I'm a little new earning online but have had some early success on Redbubble but not Merch yet. My online POD has been in haitus for the winter while I do my winter job for Amazon Kindle Diagnostics in Kentucky each year but will resume my POD in two weeks and will definitely dive deeper yet into your videos etc!
Thanks,
James & rescue kitty 🐱
I appreciate your comments and it means a lot to hear that you are getting helpful information from the videos. I think you'll get a kick out of WIX seeing how much easier it is to put together great looking sites with it. Anyways, enjoy your day, and I hope you and your family are staying healthy and safe.
Hi Greg, are Redbubble t-shirts fabric and print a good quality? What is your experience about that?
Excellent info! Looking forward to a Q and A!
Greg just want to thank you for the great valuable content! and I recently started to watch your channel and I been trying to find ways to make money online and I came across your channel and you provide valuable content especially when you talk about how to take care of yourself while doing this kind of work, so please keep up the good work my friend!

Hi Greg, great video…again.
When you create a new website for a product you want to market as an affiliate, do you also create a new email address so you can post on various social media platforms? Or do you use your personal email? Or is there another method?
(ie: I was learning about Pinterest business accounts and they want a business email account).
2. Is it important to post on social media while you are creating your blog posts
for the item you are affiliate marketing?
3. You mention that you are creating a WIX step by step affiliate marketing system for newbies. If I haven’t started creating a website on Wordpress yet,
Would you advice waiting till you are ready to show people your new system?
Thanks again for your help and knowledge! Cheers.
Thanks for the comment Keiron! You can market as many affiliate products as you want on your affiliate site (just keep all the products within the same niche). You do not need to make a new email address, you can just create a new site on your same WIX account and make a FB page from your personal FB account if you want a FB page. For Pinterest, yes you would need a new email for each account. Social media is not important, but it is a way to see quicker results. This video will explain in more detail ua-cam.com/video/r4KxIqfELkQ/v-deo.html WIX is definitely my recommendation for making the affiliate site, it's just so much easier than WordPress. I'm finalizing the WIX template now so it will likely be a week or so until it's released. If you are willing to wait another week or so, then I'd wait for it because it will be really easy to get started with. If you want to get started right away, then the video linked here will walk you through making a similar template on WIX that will still work just as well ua-cam.com/video/2FtzvcxFVRw/v-deo.html I hope that helps!
@@GregGottfried Thank you so much Greg. Yes, I will wait for your WIX template. And thanks for the info regarding social media. Again, I really appreciate all you do! Cheers!
@@keironhogg5218 Right on, coming soon :)
Hi Greg! What is your take on the newly hyped Google's BERT Update? Do you think the 30+ articles formula is still going to work for a Niche Website? Or we need to update our strategy as well? If YES... what would you like to suggest? Thanks
Thanks for asking! Great question! Google s always making updates, it's only the ones that increase or decrease people income that get talked about mainstream. With that said, I think BERT is going to help us tremendously and work to our advantage big time. If anything, it will be increasing our income and help the 30 posts strategy. Essentially BERT allows us to focus on the overall topic of the site rather than the specific keyword phrases that have good opportunity to rank. This means for us, we can continue doing exactly what we've been doing, and since we are niche specific on our sites, Google will be very keen to show our articles. Great question :)
an extremely high value channel for sure! 👌
I'm getting into P.O.D. deeper and deeper and it turns out that it's something that I really enjoy doing, so...probably it's not gonna be long until some results start to show up
Thanks Greg 🤝
Welcome aboard! Thank you so much again for the kind words!
how long since you started POD? Its getting frustrating to me with no sales. Its been a month since I started.
I always wait for your videos.....keep up the good work .....💜I liked the video before watching ....
Thank you so much! I really appreciate it.. I've got more coming for you guys, a couple big projects as well :) Thank you for all the support!

Hello brother I am 18 year old boy from India and I got a lot of information to make money online and to learn new things from you . Thank you and keep making videos
Excellent! Thank you for taking the time to leave this comment too! I really appreciate it and if you have any questions along the way, let me know :)
One of your best videos Greg!
Thank you so much Alex! I really wanted to get the content out to you guys so I'm really happy to hear that it was a good one! As always, thank you so much for the support and let me know if you have any questions at all!
I must say that you are excellent ! Everything from your simple, no nonsense presentation style to the easy to follow advice you provide. Thank you for your informative channel. Are you an artist?
Thanks Danny! I'm not an artist per-say, but I definitely do my fair share of designing print on-demand designs.
Hi Greg can you show us where to find designs for the products to sell print on demand?
Great vid content Greg, my question though is as I already have Shopify do I still need Wix or and is Shopify SEO good enough?
I am loving your videos at the moment.
Thank you! Let me know if you have any questions I can help with as you're going along!
Hi Greg, great video. When you suggest an income of $1,000 -$3,000 per month in 1-2 years is that off a 30 page website like you talk about in your affiliate marketing with wix video ie 10 product reviews, 10 top lists, and 10 educational posts? Or is this for larger sites. What kind of page views per month would that require? I know there is a lot of variables, I was just looking for a guide.
Great question! Yes, that is exactly right! You should be expecting about 1000 page views per article published by the year 1 mark, then more in time. Some articles may do better than others (some may average 500 per day, others may average 1500 per day) but the total should be about 30,000 views per month on a 30 article site in 1 year. I hope that helps!
@@GregGottfried Hi Greg, thanks for the reply. Did you mean average 1000 page views per month rather than per day per article? Is there a keyword search amount in kw finder that you generally aim for to get the average page views of 1000 per day per article? Do you also not use any backlinking like the guys over at Income School? Thanks for your assistance.
Nice Video, I have seen it over 5 times and hoping your logic just works for me, I have over 1000 Designs in Teespring , Redbubble and 200+ in MBA I am trying to full fill 500 slots in MBA ASAP, I barely get 20 Sells in am month, All the listings I optimized by your instruction. I really don't know why there is not sufficient traffic in my stores that generate sells.
Right on! Nice job on all those designs! The best recommendation I can give to you is to be sure you have a good graphic design tool like Placeit ua-cam.com/video/_iQnOSbMtc8/v-deo.html and a good niche research tool like merch informer ua-cam.com/video/2JI9VCIhPNI/v-deo.html Your strategy is spot on, and it should start snowballing.
Just turned on my notification bell for this video. Great content!
Thank you for taking the time to comment and for the support! I really appreciate it and as always if you have any questions at all, feel free to reach out anytime!
Hi Greg, I heard your video that says it takes 35 weeks for affiliate marketing. Following your strategy to start a POD business, roughly about how long will it take for a POD t-shirt business to start generating sales?
Thanks for asking Mike! Yes, that's right for Affiliate Marketing. In regards to POD, it's much harder to say a standard length of time. My usual response is 'about 6 months' but that is in flux. 6 months has proven to be a good timeline for many of the students I've helped so that's my most general answer. However, with that said, I've seen sales pickup as soon as the first month! Definitely a wider spread for POD, but I hope that helps!
@@GregGottfried Thanks so much, Greg! It at least gives me an idea of what to expect.
Big thumbs UP Greg. Excellent job boss.
Big thanks to you! Happy you liked it🙂
I love your videos Greg! Your tips have been so helpful getting my business started. I hope you keep making videos like this.
Thank you for taking the time to comment and for the support Laura! I really appreciate it and as always if you have any questions at all, feel free to reach out anytime!
Hi Greg, glad I found your channel, thanks for all the really great videos. You've inspired me to finally get my t-shirt business off the ground. I've followed your advice and set up several storefronts on TeeSpring (RedBubble and Merch by AMZN aren't far behind), but my question is: You emphasize that having too many color options can overwhelm people and that they are likely not to make any decision, but what is your feeling about offering the same t-shirt "saying" or "quote" but in a number of design variations (different fonts? Same saying with and without graphics? White on black? Black on white? Etc.) Is it the same idea, customers will get overwhelmed and end up choosing none? Really would appreciate your advice! RV
Great question! My plan for this is to make 1 of each in the beginning, then once you see that a design is selling very well, then make up to 5 variations of it. Black on white, vice versa, different color text, similar design same quote etc. Again, giving too many options will overwhelm but up to 5 variants on good selling designs works wonders. I hope that helps!
Once again amazing content, I am definitely going to focus on Print on Demand and Affiliate Marketing
You can put 1k design/aff link put there, and without any type of marketing or promotion, you won't earn a single cent. Competition for traffic is harder than the Initial setup
I respect your opinion on this but I truly beg to differ. I've personally done this, successfully.
Super helpful! Thank you for cutting to the chase. Great content!
Awesome as always. Looking forward to seeing the new studio. Thanks!!
Thanks for the comment Rick! I always enjoy seeing your name in the comments :) Trying to get creative with the studio and make it functional for having words on the screen in the top left corner (like this video). Fun process! Talk soon!
This video is GOLD in 2020!
Haha glad you enjoyed it!!
@@GregGottfried I surely did. Thank you
I love the content of your channel, I bought a couple of your udemy courses and I really like the value you offer with your content and your honesty.

Hi Greg. Do you need a business license to be an affiliate marketer? Is it beneficial to credit a business entity for affiliate marketing?
Great question! Nope, none at all :) This video will help explain in more detail: ua-cam.com/video/WQTYTdsxEk0/v-deo.html
@@GregGottfried awesome thanks. Saw you video on taxes. Great info. You have inspired me & I did actually get a license just to keep track of all the finances in one place. Thanks for all the good info you provide & helping us to weed out the truthful information from the myths.
Hey Greg I'm new to your channel so excuses my ignorance if you have mentioned this but if you pay for hosting with word or whicks can you make more than one website with the yearly fee or do you have to pay for each website you create? Thanks
No worries! Each plan is for a single site. The only exception to the is if you get the "unlimited" plan on Bluehost. Then you will just need to buy additional domains for the sites. I personally use WIX for my sites and pay $17/mo per site. I hope that helps!
@@GregGottfried yes it does indeed thank you very much
Thanks for this video. If you were starting what steps would you take to get to 4-5k/Monthly income quickest?
Thanks for asking! These 2 business models are exactly what I would use. When I want to personally grow my income, I put more time into these as well. They can call as big as you'd like, and they are exactly how I would start from scratch too :)
Are there certain states where affiliate marketing is not allowed? What would you suggest we do in that case?
Thanks for asking! I don't believe there are any limitations at all on where you can do affiliate marketing.
If you only use Teespring, Merch by Amazon and Redbubble at $1 per site per month that means that you'd have to produce a thousand designs to make any livable passive income ($3000 a month). That's a lot of work and it seems almost insurmountable but I guess it's better to use this pessimistic figure instead of a more optimistic one in your projections.
Time to get started on the thousand designs!
Thank you for taking the time to comment and for the support! I really appreciate it and as always if you have any questions at all, feel free to reach out anytime! I really appreciate your mindset on this too! Many people will see that number and not start because of it! This works to the benefit of you, me, and people like us who are willing to put in the hard work ;)
Yes! Nothing good comes easy! Put in the work, get the results!
Great vids mate, really appreciate your advice. POD is going to be my first step with a view to move into AM. Have you got any tutorial vids on how to start AM? I'm thinking about the Dad niche specifically so would be good to know how I go about it 👍🏻 Cheers again dude!
Greg, can you talk about listing optimization and key words?
Your videos are gold👌 Any chance you could do a quick video on POD pricing strategies??
Jennifer Schaffer Thank you so much for the support! I’ll see if I can tie it into one of the coming videos, but in the meantime I recommend always pricing your products a couple dollars below the suggested price. The rule of thumb should be that the product is priced what you would be willing to buy it for. They suggested prices are always far too high in my opinion. If you watch the print on demand tutorial linked from this video, it will refer to “video 1” and that video talks about pricing a little bit further. I hope that helps for now!
Bro, I just came across your channel and I'm hooked! You put out solid content and it's helped me a ton so far! Thanks!

Hi, Greg!
Another question.
I know you who said we should set up separate T Spring stores for are different items depending on the subject, should we do the same thing on other sites like red bubble or and is on merge? Or should we just leave it in their general marketplace.
Thank you again
I was wondering the same thing 🤔
Hi Greg. as usuall your videos are very helpful and straightforward to the point. I would like to thank you very much for your precious advice in how to get accepted in MBA . I followed your video to the T and it worked :). My problem now is I have 8 live designs on MBA, when I try to find them on Amazon I do not find them under their category . any advice my friend ?
Thanks for asking and for the support! It typically takes a while for the designs to start showing in the marketplace. There's not a whole lot we can do but give them time.. I would recommend just planning to give them up to 60 days to see if sales start coming in. If no sales within 60 days on MBA, then swap out your designs with new ones and try those for another 60 days. I hope that helps!
@@GregGottfried Thank you , you are amazing as usual :)
Hi @Greg Gottfried - I've been consuming your content for about a month now. I just made my first sale on my print on demand account yesterday! Very grateful for your advice. I have one questions - If I upload 500 designs by Jan 1, how long until I can expect to be making $500/month?
Great video yet again. I currently am running all my businesses on a custom built PC but want to start using a laptop. Which laptop would you recommend for a designer/blogger. I am constantly updating my sites so I want something that moves fast.
Thanks for asking! I am a HUGE fan of the MacBooks because they come with Preview which is a graphic design tool built into Apple computers. It saves a tremendous amount of time. Additionally, Apply computers allow you to drag and drop images from websites straight onto your desktop saving you a ton of time there as well. For POD and Affiliate Marketing, I highly recommend MacBooks. I hope that helps!
Definitely earned that thumbs up
Thank you for that thumbs up, and for the comment! I really appreciate the comment and the support.. As always, if you have any questions let me know!
Greg, nice way to tie all that stuff up for us! So I have about 60 items on Teespring now, no sales yet. However, once I get people to my storefront via social media, how do they search for specific products in my store? Seems like search can only be done from the teespring front page and then odds of finding my stuff is slim without any sales yet.
The beginning is always going to be the hardest. Once you have your trust score, you'll be all set for the future, but in the beginning you have to really focus on the social media. There's no way to reach a storefront properly right now, so make sure that you are only putting in your best niche specific designs into the storefront where you are sending niche related traffic. This way every design will keep their attention as they scroll through your storefront. I hope this helps!
Hi you are really reliable and when I see your videos I know you really know what you are doing and fun to learn with you I want to open an affiliate marketing site you have recommended niches and I also do not want to write articles I want an Amazon style site but what do I do how people buy from me? Thanks!
Hi Greg, great video. Liked!! Question please. What if you find a course that is expensive ($1000+) which you believe is legit and it has everything in one place so that you don't have to keep hoping and jumping between various UA-cam channels. Would that be a good course for a complete beginner who is finding UA-cam University overwhelming?
Greta question! Yes, I agree with that. I'd just make sure the course has a good refund policy in case you find out that it was not worth the big price tag when compared to youtube. Good luck!
Thanks Greg. Transparent as per usual
Thank you so much for the comment! As always, if you have any questions as you're going along just let me know!
I'm still following him since he had less than 500 subs
Thank you so much for sticking around all this time! I hope my videos have been helpful to you over the time you've been subscribed. As always, if there's anything I can help with, feel free to let me know anytime at all! Again, thank you so much for all the support!!
Hey Greg can you make a video sharing your opinion on ecommerce, dropshipping etc. Have you done it and would you recommend it? Thanks
I've got one for you :) This video touches on it a bit and I think will be helpful for you: ua-cam.com/video/E4sjSoSeMZ0/v-deo.html
My boy! Keep up the good work man.

@@GregGottfried Will do brother, I'm a truck driver without a laptop, so it's a bit of a pain messing with the pod sites on a phone when away from home
Varthaer Fallen I totally understand that! Although it’s possible on a phone, everything being so small makes it a bit more difficult and time-consuming. A tablet can be the next progression before laptop if a laptop is too far out of reach right now. Once you do get your hands on a laptop, it will save a ton of time because the layouts on the sites are much easier to use than on mobile.
@@GregGottfried definitely my man. You give the motivation to atleast drive through the small print on mobile and how teespring does not like phones when creating listings, so I do appreciate that!
Bro ! Actually do you think we need to use shopify or other planform to sell our POD products
I'll link up a video that will give you my opinion :) ua-cam.com/video/ZbEVFRqICP8/v-deo.html
Hi Greg! Another great video, thanks! Question: If I create a niche-specific affiliate marketing website, won't I then have to drive viewers to the website? Otherwise, what would bring people there?
debbie herman Thanks for the comment and great question Debbie! The vast majority of your traffic for a niche specific website will come from Google. It takes on average 35 weeks from when you publish an article to your site until it is receiving nearly peak traffic from Google search results. This is the main traffic source, and it is completely free, it just takes time for your articles to show up in Google’s search results. My last video was about three ways you can drive traffic in the beginning, so that you can see quicker results while waiting to rank on Google.
@@GregGottfriedGot it, thanks! And regarding the niche of the niche-specific website, is there any need to do "niche checking" as you suggest we do for the first set of POD t-shirts we create for Teespring? And, can you give a few examples of niche-specific affiliate marketing sites, (to help generate ideas)?
Checking the niche is always a beneficial step, however I've begun going with my gut more often. What I mean by that, is thinking of a niche that I have interest in (so that I know I can keep focused) then checking Google to see if the niche is filled with really big reputable sites or if the search results are hit/miss. If the search results are hit/miss, then I go for it. That's my research now :) Check out www.dirtbikeplanet.com for a great example. I hope that helps!
@@GregGottfried That is a great example. Thanks.
