AI is becoming the biggest online scam in e-commerce. How many videos have been posted to KZread promoting the idea that all you need to do is plug a few words into an image generator, then take the output and put it on a T-Shirt and before you know it, you'll be making $10,381 a month.

There was a POD KZreadr I used to follow, and the moment he made an AI design video, I left my 2¢, gave my thumbs down, and unsubscribed. Right off the bat, invading artists spaces to spam AI in direct competition with artists when the models are trained on artists' work... Absolutely despicable, deplorable, abhorrent. Behavior that needs to be condemned. It needs to stop.

I put a lot of effort into starting a pod business 2 years ago then 3 things happens around the same time. Etsy suspended my shop the first day with no reason given. While watching a different youtuber show their real revenue it said something like $3500 HOWEVER it also said $2000 spent in ads. What!? They never even mentioned it. That's fine still a profit but of the hundreds of hours of videos i watched not one said anything about paying for ads or how high the competition actually was. I was also rejected for Amazon merch. I was told repeatedly by these people you can reapply for Amazon in a few months. No you can not!

Instead I have found one of the top channels when it comes to blending informative content that has real examples and explainations with hilarious entertainment. Your tone, your facial expressions, your reactions! You've got me laughing out loud with these exposing fake POD experts videos. SO glad I found your vids before I could accidentally choose a white shirt.

New subscriber! Excellent video. I’m 6 weeks in, 35 products on my Etsy store, zero sales, and several hundred spent on Canva Pro, Everbee, ordering samples and the list goes on. I’ve watched dozens of Josh’s videos, and while,like you said,they are well done he constantly over simplifies these businesses and side hustles. Also,the volume needed to even make $100/ month can be intimidating. Profit margins on apparel is skinny!

00:01 Exposing a KZreadr for making false claims in a print on demand video 02:07 Emphasizing the importance of understanding all aspects of a business 06:07 Starting a print-on-demand business may require laying out money upfront 08:07 Be open about costs in starting a print on demand business 12:16 Video reveals sponsored content deception 14:14 Importance of not solely relying on pre-made templates for success in Print on Demand business 18:00 Using KD's AI tools to generate designs 19:52 Using AI for designs has drawbacks 23:18 Designing for black garments sells better 25:06 Be cautious with using mockups from third-party providers on Etsy 28:36 Print on demand business misrepresented on KZread 30:13 Print on demand business is harder than it seems but can be rewarding.

I’m new to the POD business and I follow a lot of his videos, so I really appreciate you making this. Really helps put things into perspective.

Thank you for this! A KZreadr I’ve been watching as I consider starting my own POD business had said that she uses kittl to do the mockups for her Etsy store, so I was surprised to hear from you that that violates Etsy’s rules!

Loved the "little tangent"/ very pertinent illustration if the bs😂😂. High quality sarcasm👌

Thank you for posting, it’s so easy to fall into the trap from all these “finance” KZreadrs. I once heard “if there’s a gold rush, you’re gonna make the most money selling shovels”

Need more people to call out scams like this. I hate seeing ads that parade as not being a fucking ad

I love your sarcasm, seriously

Well done for the video, you have a new subscriber. I detest all the lies you find on KZread about POD, Etsy, Amazon etc. they are all valid methods to make money but they all require lots of hard work and determination. They won't make you rich in a month. I have watched some of these videos and even followed some of the advice BUT all the products I sold on my POD Etsy shop were my own ideas when I followed my own instinct rather than some paid tools. I don't want to find what is selling and copy other people's ideas. 1000s of other people are doing exactly the same.

thank you!!

I really have to side eye folks who are so seriously scammed. This so called guru has a scammy vibe but you need discernment to see it. Discernment and common sense will save you a lot of headaches when dealing with these snake oil types.

Thank you sir, for your service to the people! I have been suspicious of Josh Mayo since I started watching his videos because he says all online money making is so easy and he’s not the only one doing this!

I love it these videos... Bring Greg from your other video and i would love to see your guys together

I trust you and only you!
