I have seen so many small businesses complain about the TikTok shop 3 day policy. They should adjust that. That is so unfair. So excited for your success, though. ❤

They allow you to but quantity in your listings. You should only list what you can fulfill in the 3 days.

They shut my shop down because I stole my own trademark apparently. I sent all of my documentation and they still have the store up with a bunch of violations. Hours of communication got me nowhere. Just talking in circles.

You are so lucky to have a mom who is so willing to help. You go Mom.... and much-deserved congratulations on so many orders.

That 3 day turnaround is a big reason I haven't opened a tiktok shop haha. Sometimes life gets in the way or if you have a lot of orders that's an unrealistic turnaround. Small businesses are not Amazon with their next day shipping.

What kind of sweat shirts are you subbing on? Are they over 65%polyester?

Hey,, I just wanted to know about the printing style or Printing process, because you mention on the video as sublimation transfer, so are they Dtf or sublimation if it sublimation, how does it fit so well on the cotton fabrics

Awesome sweatshirts you have done

I’m 62 and now am an empty nester with plenty of time I had no idea tic tok had a store. I love the pink I think I will forever be a pink woman. Okay so do you get a website domain then get the machines and print the transfers and continue on with all the business aspect of it

What printer do to u use and transfers?

which printer you use for dft ? please

whats the name of your heatpress machine?

I just subscribed to your channel. I hope you do more videos they are great and informative. I do Etsy, Ebay, Mercari and I just started Faire last year. I started doing TikTok this year but I'm trying to figure out how you go viral. Is it all about ads and videos? Just listing product gets you nowhere it seems. Thank you.

Awesome! Do you make the sublimation transfer sheets yourself?

Congrats! Does your shipping software allow you to print one manifest of all shipments created for the day? The manifest will contain all tracking numbers and your postal carrier just scans the manifest vs. scanning each individual package. I’ve been considering a Tik Tok shop but this 3dy rule really makes me hesitate! Doesn’t seem like they are setting small shop owners up for success. But GREAT job to you and the fam for helping out! 🎉🎉🎉

Honestly, I understand the pros and the good of using tiktok shop. But if the turnaround time is not feasible, then I would not offer that as an option. It seems like to me (haven't started a business yet) that it could end up doing more harm than profit in the long run, especially if you are already tired. It seems like a quick recipe for burnout even more so than the usual holiday season.

@Laurenheath_

8 ай бұрын

So typically 1-3 business days is our turn around time. With Tik tok shop you can meet that time frame and pass of the package to usps but if usps doesn’t scan it in by the end of your 3 business days you could have the potential of Tik tok not paying you for your orders. So theoretically even if you sent it same day you could still lose your money. It’s a major flaw on their end and one a lot of small businesses are upset with.

Please help me! I must be doing something wrong and I have no idea! I opened up a TikTok shop a year ago. I have put so much work into it so many videos to promote my product which I think is gorgeous and there’s nothing else out thereand I have gotten one sale so I don’t understand what is it that I’m doing wrong. Please help me are you advertising?

Interestingly these type of sweatshirts must be an American thing. I’ve seen so many KZread videos on people creating a business printing them at home. It would not translate here in Australia. I just don’t think anyone would buy something like that here. Different demographic.
