Thank you again Cassiy! I just added tshirts today as I’m in Australia and spring has sprung 🌼 😁 So happy to hear you love the Gildan 5000 as that is what I have chosen. I can only get B+C from USA print providers. It can be so confusing as I’ve seen reviews where customers mention “oh the tshirt was only a Gildan!” 🙄 like they have high expectations, but I also believe that tee gives the best oversized look. Thank you so much for sharing. Loving your videos. Your the best 💜🦋🌸😊

Another gold mine of information, Cassiy. “Mining” by watching your videos more than once and reading your replies to comments saves me TONS of time as a new seller. I can just put your advice in place and focus on design, design, design. There are so many things a new seller can’t fully understand until they actually try them. Finding out how the Etsy machine works as a whole only happens by putting the parts in place one at a time. Taking rapid action with your advice to simply build the “machine” has truly helped me make swift progress. Now I can begin to step back and review/analyze different parts one at a time and tweak changes as needed. Up to 30 listings now!!! 🎉Thank you as always!

Does anyone know if there is anyplace to get a shirt similar to the 3001 but where you can print front back and sleeves if I wanted to? And even a long sleeve one would be cool where I could print down the entire arm. I would also like to print my logo on the tag area. Any ideas?

First, thank you so much for your excellent videos. You pack so much value into each video. My question is about toddler and youth sizes of t-shirts and sweatshirts.

When you create a product shirt, do you get to keep the sample shirt they send?

Hi Cassy! Your videos have been SO helpful to me so thank you so much for providing so much value. One question I do have is about the oversized mockups. Is there a way to know what size those shirts typically are being shown in? For example, if a customer wants the oversized look with a Bella 3001 I'm selling, then how many sizes up would they need to go in general?

Hi Cassiy thanks for another great video. You mentioned that the neck of the Gilden 5000 was right up tight around your neck. Have you gotten any negative feedback about the neckline being awkward on an oversized shirt? I love the idea of trying to find a lower cost replacement for the comfort colors. Do you put a design in the pocket area on the front?

@CassiyJohnson

2 жыл бұрын

I am just starting to use them myself more recently and have not gotten that feedback. I would say though that I wear a size small normally and only ordered it in a medium. SO I didn't actually really get that oversized look. I'd recommend having wording in your listings to size up 2-3 sizes from your normal size for the oversized look. And when you do that, I think the neck hole would not be quite as tight.

Hi Cassidy, your videos are always so informative and are very appreciated. I’m planning on opening my shop in September and I’m feeling overwhelmed.

Hey it's super normal to feel overwhelmed in the beginning! I would recommend doing it this way. 1. Open your Etsy shop TODAY 2. sign up to Printify TODAY and connect to Etsy then these two seemingly big things are out of the way! Then as you are ready to take the next steps, it's just that much easier. 3. Brand your Etsy shop kzread.info/dash/bejne/aotq0ZaLhbKfiaw.html 4. Make one listing start to finish to make sure you understand how it all works, here's a full tutorial of how that would look kzread.info/dash/bejne/ooenktCGlrXXisY.html Then slowly add more designs as you feel like it between now and September to hopefully get a sale or two before you really get going. This simple start will help you feel so much more confident and ready once September gets here! Trust me, no one will be beating your door down with sales the day you open. It's a slow start so you might as well start a little early to just jump start the process!

Is the 1717 superior to the 5000 in terms of quality? I am looking for a heavy weight/oversized style t-shirt at the moment for my print on demand store. I see printify doesn't carry the 1717, however prihtful does... It's much more expensive too... Any other suppliers you recommend? Also, it is worth the extra money?

Hi Cassiy! Thank you for all the great tips for new Etsy sellers, I’m setting up my shop this weekend and am so excited to get started! I have a question about the design on the back of the shirt. I noticed that most of the ones I see selling on Etsy have a small left chest print on front as well as the large print on the back. This really seems to increase the price quite a bit with the print providers and lowering profit margins, how are you able to offset that increase? Are you printing on front and back or just doing the back print and leaving the front blank? Are you able to sell without a front left chest print? Sorry so many questions, thanks for all your advice so far I’m watching all your videos!

@CassiyJohnson

Жыл бұрын

It's up to you if you want to add a design to the front as well, I have tried to put it there and not put it there and have sold them both ways. You just raise the price for the listings with a design on front and back by about $6.00 to offset the price. You will not be overpricing them if you do this, that is a normal going rate for a double print shirt on Etsy!

I’m confused, in your video on t-shirts not sell you said to not use any smiley faces because they were all trademarked.

Hi Cassidy! When using printify their customer service states they do not recommend manually adding skus in order to add sweatshirts or hoodies to a listing with just tshirts as they cannot guarantee the integration of the order will process accurately. How do you add multiple options in your listing using printify?

@CassiyJohnson

I don't add multiple options to the same listing like that other than for matching family listings. I just make separate listings for each of the variations. The sku numbers do work fine for syncing your listings though, just have to make sure you do it correctly. Printify didn't even know that added the skus worked until last year.

Who would you recommend for north American sales? I have to believe the majority of your watchers are living in Canada and the States. Would you use one printer or two?

what about wear and tear though? Gildan 64000 had some wear and tear quicker than bella unfortunately

What about feel? I've heard the 5000 is not as nice to the touch as 3001 and sometimes it gets returned? Was curious how the 64000 compares to the 3001 also. Probably not as much in oversized.

You should be able to keep your existing listings and just switch them over as you get sales. So if you get a sale on an item from Printful. 1. cancel the order with printful OR un connect your store 2. Add that png file to printify and instead of publishing it, save it as a draft. 3. go to your "other orders" tab on Printify and select the shirt you'd like to fulfill it with for that order. 4. Go back into the listing you saved as a draft on Printify, and copy and paste the SKU numbers next to the prices on the pricing page. Paste these into that Etsy listings (replacing the Printful sku numbers there now.) This will make any order for that listing automatically fulfill by Printify in the future. A little manual for sure but eventually when you get all your best sellers over there, then it will all just be set up.

So I guess I need to keep Canva 3001 for front designs and Gildan 5000 for back designs With 2 sizes up for oversize look If I do back design for can va 3001 . Does it worth it for oversize shirts????

You can totally just use the 3001 for back designs and oversized shirts as well! Just have to tell them to size up 2-3 sizes from their normal size for these as well. There are a few size charts out there that have an oversized shirt and recommends sizing up.

Are these shirts available in oversized options? Or are oversized options just XL & up?

Yes they are normal shirts so the customer would need to size up for an "oversized look", you can purchase oversized size charts on Etsy that give this advice to your customers, you can create one saying to size up 1-2 sizes from your normal size for an oversized look, and you can add this to the description!

I've seen you speak briefly a couple times about SKUs. I have a small digital shop, and have opted to not use SKUs. I assume you create your own, but what format, and for what purpose. I'm clueless about the SKUs.

So since I am selling Print On Demand t-shirts, this means that someone else (Printify.com) is printing my shirts and sending them to my customers for me. So these SKU numbers are something that they make. The SKUs are how Printify knows what shirt to make when I get orders!

@@CassiyJohnson Thanks for clearing that up for me. I've been going through your videos and taking lots of notes. My plan is to open a POD store before long.

Cassiy! Do you think men would like bella3001 shirts? Or should I choose a shirt with a thicker material like gildan64000 or 5000? I have a design that would be aimed for bachelor party or even a mixed gender group. What style shirt would you suggest?

Just wondering why you haven't mentioned Printful? You don't have to answer if you don't want to, I just want to make sure I don't get overwhelm with choosing multiple POD vendors. And thank you so much for your helpful videos!!

If I’m only offering 5 colors, do I need a color chart? How does that work?

@CassiyJohnson

Жыл бұрын

You either need to have a picture of each color in a mockup or offer a color chart showing the 5 colors. You can buy an editable color chart on Etsy for pretty cheap and that makes it really easy or you can create your own.

So we need to worry about trademark infringement (smiley face) with the graphics we get from Creative Fabrica? I thought we'd be safe with them.

Yes you do, CF is just a marketplace of everyday people like you and I. So it's still your job to check for any trademarks or copyrights for graphics from their site!

I've noticed Underground Threads and are actually the highest ranking for the U.S. on Printify and have loads of colors too but they are never mentioned. Is there a reason you do not use those? Just curious.

They are newer and not as vetted, I have personally just never tried them. I think most people list tons of stuff and you want all of your stuff to be ideally from the same print provider so that if people order multiple things, they all ship together. But you should try them and see how it goes if you want!

Do you think all of these colors are going to still be selling through fall?

Yes for sure!! I sell these generic colors all year round! White shirts were actually my best seller last year

I noticed you mentioned oversized Bella and canvas mock ups. But that shirt doesn’t come in oversized. Do people just size up? That shirt is more fitted so I would hate to mislead my customer

Yes you would make it very clear that they would need to size up. I’d buy a size chart that explains to size up 2-3 sizes from their normal size. I’d also include that in the description as well!

@@CassiyJohnson ok great! Thank you for your reply! I just started my shop and I’m learning so much from you. Your channel is gold 🙌

Thank you very much for all your videos. Unfortunately those of us in the uk are not soo lucky cos we pay a lot for shipping. And the price of tshirt are expensive. You would have to sell your tshirt for £25 to get a profit of £4. And even that u have to still pay etsy fees. Is there any advice you can give me. Thank you in advance.

My best advice to you Ruth would be to sell only in the US! Use Printify and sell in the US only. This is the biggest market shopping on Etsy and then you don't have to pay all the VAT fees and extra shipping. I just think it would be easier for you!

To be honest, I have been thinking of that lately. Just not sure how to operate that. Still looking for videos which can help. And also would you offer a discount on your coaching classes. As I can't afford the price at the minute 😭. I have made 15 sales so far and most of it I run at lose.

I just order 3 t-shirt from swift pro😢 all looked very cheap, old and faded. They were supposed to ne black. I was completely embarrassed and sad. The color of the print was also dull. She is a the black seller for a black t shirt

The shirts you are using to look at EVERBEE are happy face designs - I understand that the happy face is copyrighted and cannot be use. As its a covetted item but copyrighted these amounts will be high but how can we compare? So forgive me but how does this help us understand what WE can actually sell? Unless we pay major money for a license of a happy face - if that makes sense.

It's not the fact that these shirts all have smiley faces that is making them successful, focus more on the design aspects like the colors/fonts/types of graphics etc. The positive sayings on the back of a shirt are what is selling well. But you could take this same style and add it to any other niche and it would likely do well too!
