Thanks a lot for sharing your Wisdom with us Ryan!🙌

Oh, snap oh, snap oh snap. Oh snap oh snap oh snap. These guys keep me glued to KZread and excited on a weekly basis.🙌🏽 Philip. Philip. Ryan. Ryan. Oh my goodness gentleman. 🔥🔥🔥 information. It was so nice seeing this side of Ryan, based on the questions that you asked and hearing more about his story because he shares so many good things. I absolutely love listening to you guys every single day during my long commute to work, or before I go to sleep, or while I’m working on designs. There are two people that I would want to thank first, in person, or online, during this print on demand journey, it would be both of you, gentlemen.

Loved the podcast! I have learned so much from both of you over the months of watching your videos! So true about that 12 month sales cycle. Last summer i made a bunch of teacher designs and none sold. I was so bummed. Well guess what, this summer when the back to school sales started I sold a couple hundred of them. Yay for previous labor compounding and bringing fruit months later.

So glad to hear that! It's a concept proven time and time again. So hard to realise as a Beginner though

What a great conversation! This gives a lot of insight about the differences between Ryan's perspective and yours. It's clear here that Ryan is all about turning time into money. A smart approach!

great interview, love the honesty from Ryan.

Couple of legends❤️❤️

Hi bro.. I have a big question. -when i am researching for good niches and I pick one, how many designs should l upload for that specific niche? . I know that to be successful on print on demand u need to upload several designs on several good niches. But the problems is that you end up with too much niches in your store about different topics.. is that ok or am I doing something wrong ..I hope you replied .thanks

Awesome 👏

@@PhilipAnders Thank you. I didn't notice that at first.

Boom first lol

You guys always have great advice, but when it comes to graphics, POD in general, devalue design in some way. Do you have to be a master, no, it does help to learn graphic programs instead of leaning solely on Canva, Kittle...etc. Create a pipeline for your production area so that you can edit, upscale...etc. There is enough out there that you can teach yourself. More than likely, the design will be the first element a customer will see. So maybe learn a thing or two about it, because with AI in the mix, you better bring a quality design that answers the design problem.

„You know what I mean“

I don't wanna work a day job neither...

Amazon merch is dead. Too many designs. Too many copycats. No sales.
