# 9 is a profound, deep truth that cannot be escaped. Your ending wrap up shows a lot of wisdom gained at a young age, good for you!. I'm giving Etsy a shot at 70 years old. Putting past skills to use again can be fun financially, but , as you said, it's more boring than watching paint dry. Your friends will be even more bored than you once they understand how you spend your day.

I love the way you break down and explain your strategies. It makes it easy to understand.

These are legitimately the best KZread videos regarding Etsy. There are more experienced KZreadrs in the space that have great content, but yours is the best. Very useful and encouraging material brother

This video hits bullseye in many different condition of my business mind. Most of the the time I am over thinking many ideas and but contrary will put me in momentum break! It is so frustrating! I am so grateful tho that people like you, helps people like us, not only you are generous with sharing great tips and informations, you're also helping to turn off the momentum break and start to keep going. Once I finally figure this out, I promise my self to be helpful like you. Pls dont stop helping. More power!

This is by far the most informative video I have seen in this area! Extreme value in all your videos, thank you so much!

Seriously Alek, your videos are always pure value! 🔥 You strive to give high value in your videos, with no fluff, and you tell it like it is. I am going to watch this one a few times! Thanks!

Tip #9!!! 100%! Cheering you on for your dedication to the process. Thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge to give others the opportunity to add to their toolbox.

Wow this is the second video I watched on this channel and I have to say this is absolutely spectacular quality, both in content and production. Thanks a lot man!

I watched your video to check myself as I started a apparel brand a year ago. My journey hasn't been exactly the same (I started with a manufacturer and build an e-commerce website myself) but all your points are 100% true for your journey and similar ones. Keep up the great content Alek!

With the current financial and economic situation world wide, i strongly believe that as smart citizens we shouldn’t rely solely on our salaries, instead we should look for more innovative means to make money

But mainly I hope the people in the back heard who want passive income w/instant gratification from unreliable sources on KZread. It takes time, hard work, practice, and dedication.

@@danielsvids7325 Quick update: I created my own Python scripts back then to use Printify API and upload a lot of designs at once. But even with that I still had a lot of manual work to do. I ended up loading only about 350 designs to start and started making sales the 1st month. I started using Etsy Ads to get enough sales to try and get the star seller badge asap. Up till this point most months were in the red due to ads. But the holiday season I ended up selling quite a bit, at roughly 50% margin. I only did t-shirts, nothing else. I've since trimmed the listings down to 75 or so. Once I have more time I'm hoping to test out Alek's scripts to see if they are any better than what I created but this unfortunately has taken a back seat.

"Process will work, if you do" Wise words

Hi Alek! I must commend you and say that you definitely INSPIRED me to start with print on demand "challenge." Not so much because it might become lucrative opportunity (regardless what anybody says), more as a way of being disciplined and focused for one extra hour in a day without expecting any results. People don't understand that building momentum is really everything and that consistency (doing something 1 h every day indefinitely) will ALWAYS beat intensity of work. In addition to that, how would you compare Printify to Vistaprint as a platforms? I know that you are Printify "type of a guy" but do you have anything to say about selling on Vistaprint as well? Thanks!
