And today we’re going to talk about how to make money selling shirts with $0 to low capital to get started, and basically we’re going to do an overview and tutorial of what print on demand is, if you’re new to this channel, welcome. I’m all about learning how to build passive income, become financially free, and design your best life. So if you are interested in that, be sure to subscribe and hit the bell button to be notified of my latest videos. So I’m sure many of you are interested in another side hustle idea where you can start making money with $0 to start and I’ve actually made money passively by printing on demand. And I want to share with you how it all works. Basically you can get into E-commerce and everything like that start selling products, start building your own store without having to have inventory. Now today’s video is sponsored by prenta phi. And I go into everything about what prenta Phi is and how it all works. I am super excited to share it with you. And now let’s go back to I’m going to actually screen share this presentation now. Okay, so now we’re going to talk about what print on demand is. So print on demand is a method in which you work with a supplier to customize products such as shirts, or bags with your own designs to sell them under your own brand. So with this you don’t have to pay for the product until you’ve sold it and there’s no need to both buy and hold inventory. So if you look at the image below, you can see that you end up uploading an image or design and you put that image on a product like those shirts, or those bags. And then you list that product for sale on, for example, one or another marketplace, or on your own website. And customers will start ordering your products. And when they order the products, the factory will print your design and ship your products for you. So you don’t actually need to keep that inventory. You don’t need to print those products, you don’t need to have like a printing press or things like that, to make these products, they will actually do everything for you, you just need to do the marketing, you need to build your brand to start selling . Now let’s go over the pros and cons. So the advantages are that it’s basically zero to small capital startup, it’s very low risk. If you buy a bunch of inventory, maybe you’re spending 1000s of dollars to hold a bunch of inventory and hope it all sells, it’s definitely riskier because you’re risking a lot of your own money. But this way you can actually have an online store or you can put it on a market. And it will be quite low risk, because you don’t have to spend a ton of money. In fact, you can spend $0, depending on how you will do things. Another pro is that you don’t have to ship the inventory. As I mentioned, the fulfillment company will do it for you, you just need to work with certain print-on-demand companies to do this. And you can easily create products, many of these companies like prenta phi have these drag and drop mock-up generators where you can drag the image to the garment and it will generate the mock for you. So it is very easy to create and customize your products. Now a con is that they will be lower margin. So if you actually have a printing press, and you can create these products and ship it over, it would actually cost you less than if you did it this way. But the idea is that you don’t actually pay for the products until you actually get a sale, right. So you don’t really have to spend money to get those products, but it will definitely be lower margins because they do everything for you. There are also perhaps less customizable options. For example, if you wanted to embroider your design on a part of the shirt, or something like that, that print-on-demand company doesn’t allow, you can’t do it that way. But many of these companies are doing more and more different kinds of products, different kinds of ways to customize. So there are actually a lot of options, as I’ll show you in the next slides. And there are print-on-demand companies that you can work with and actually create your own store to sell your own products. So we go more into printify in this video. And then there are other options here, as you can see in printify can also integrate into Etsy, Shopify, WooCommerce, eBay and Wix. I will go into that more later. Now we are on printify site, we will go into how it works. So there are five easy steps. So you can first choose from their catalog of more than 300 products such as T-shirts, mugs, socks and home accessories. And you can adjust it. And then you can start customizing with the mock-up generator I mentioned earlier. That includes really easy-to-use mock-up generator, put your designs on those products. And then you can also order samples to see if the product looks good on you. And then once you are happy with your product, you can automatically publish it on your online store and you can integrate with leading platforms like Shopify, Etsy and Wix. I will show more of that later. So essentially, if you integrate it with, say, your Etsy shop, you can update your shop accordingly with new ads from printify. And once it’s connected, when someone buys from your Etsy shop, they’ll fulfill your orders for you. And just like I mentioned, you can just relax and sit back because every time you make a sale, they’re going to put it through quality control, make sure it’s all looking good, then it’s sent to production and they ship it to your customer. You can track all of this in your printer fi account which allows you to kind of focus on your brand while they take care of the rest. Let me also quickly go over the prices. So if you can see here you can sign up completely for the free plan like I mentioned $0 to start so you can actually connect five stores to your account which is more than enough and have unlimited product design so you can run your business get started
At once. Now they offer other options. Basically, if you want to get a 20% discount on your products, you can essentially pay $25 a month. And this is when you start to make a bunch more sales, that it may make sense for you to start paying that monthly, so that you can get a discount, because maybe you would make more profit by doing it this way. Okay, so now we’re in my account, and I’m going to show you how to get started setting it up. So if you go into the catalog, you can go into the menswear T-shirts, because that’s where their unisex T-shirts are. And if you go for the lowest price, you can see that they have Gildan shirts for quite cheap from 655. And it’s not going to be 655 at all because you’re gonna drop your design on. And it can cost a little more than that. So we will check here. So when I choose this, they essentially work with a bunch of print providers, and some are from the US. Some are from Canada, if we enter the lowest price, if we want to get a lower price for it, they have it for 655 and 480 for shipping, and this looks like
