Because it's a grift, just like these crypto youtubers, or course sellers. Most of these guys have never even done pod. They copy from other youtubers about pod, and share fake income screen shots. It's all fake

It drives me insane that people say Make $10,000 a month, but they never tell you what their net is. If you aren't making a profit after all expenses then you aren't making money. I'm also a Real Estate agent and the same thing there. I want to see a P&L!!! Great video thank you so much for shinning light on this!

Thank you Shimmy for your honesty! I watched quite a few videos that preach the passive income and almost a year ago opened a shop. I've worked most days, a couple of hours a day and had no sales. Then I watched some of yours and a couple of other true POD sellers. I even had you do a shop audit. I gleaned the truth, implemented some of your suggestions, started working on my shop for many hours a day, sometimes 12-15hrs and finally started seeing sales. Now my shop is making sales, getting 5 star reviews and Etsy is finally showing my listings without ads! It takes WORK! And anyone that tells you otherwise is lying.

Divide your days up and focus on one thing at a time. I also published 4-6 products a week and I put my designs on multiple products. That seemed to please the algorithm on Etsy and I started getting views. Main thing is, don't give up!! I almost did several times but now I see a future.

@@shimmymorris1 agreed. but its better then nothing. atleast someone ppl will know more now.

What drives me nuts is they always assume any one Etsy seller who is making even a conservative 5% profit at 4k net per month has no other overhead and it's just pure profit. We don't know how much of that profit goes to taxes or to paid ads. Just because a listing does not appear as sponsored this "guru" has zero clue if the seller is running Google ads, Facebook ads, Pinterest ads or any combination thereof. Many times when you see that volume of sales it's because you are either running ads and driving lots of traffic to your listings or you have built up a large audience over time through your own site and have collected tons of emails. After factoring in ad spend that 4k he calculated could be down to 1k or less. Nobody ever talks about the possibility of ad spend. 🤦‍♀️

Thank you being upfront about Gelato. I think it's better to just do your own website then using Etsy or Amazon if you are using POD. I don't believe in over saturating any platform with a bunch of garbage that wastes peoples time. Integrity is definitely one of the most important things in any business or life.

Mark immediately lost me when he said he's run/sold million-dollar companies, yet he makes videos about POD. I suppose many folks DO have million-dollar POD businesses. But for a man with that apparent level of business skill, POD seems like small potatoes and wouldn't be worth his time.

I promote on other SM platforms and I get very little if any traffic. At the moment paid traffic is out of the question.

You are the first and only KZreadr I have heard say honestly in plain language that these print on demand providers do not offer free as advertised. Yes, it is free to make listings but once you get a sale like you said, if you don’t have money in your bank to cover the sales you’ve made, then you’re up the creek. But as many people as I have watched, talk about print on demand and how much money they make, they never ever say this. I simply learned by experience and I wondered how come all of the people who talk about all these sales that they have never talk about what it actually takes to get into the business.

I think a major problem is also that the average person does not have a lot of business sense (I.e running a business, hidden costs, taxes, etc), simply because they aren’t exposed to how a business runs, and so they fall into the trap of these videos and think these methods are easy/passive. It’s very easy to fall into this trap, especially if someone is unhappy with their current job.

One other thing - the sites that show the data on each listing, don't take into account the store sale. So if the mug is on "sale" for 20% off, the actual sales price won't be the number they used to calculate profit for a listing - such as that mug. So that number can appear as much as 50% (or more) higher than the real amount of revenue.

I think this aspect of Mark's video actually wasn't misleading. He just said you don't need to order the product until you've made the sale. He didn't specifically say that you'll have the funds to pay your printer at that time. Maybe that didn't bother me because I already know how POD works. ? I think Mark was just implying that you don't need to carry stock and wonder if it will sell. You already know you have a sale when you purchase the goods. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt on that one.

I salute your transparency! I do agree, there are VERY many of these videos which are kind of misleading. You can make it big, but not as a side hustle.

you're welcome. his other content is really good

Hey loving your content! Some months back you kinda recommended Gelato. But now I think you are not. It would be very nice if you make an updated video on which pod company is best Printify / Printful / Gelato ! [taking into account 1) quality and pricing 2) environment friendly and sustainability 3)delivery time] Thanks !

You're welcome!

I'm having problems with Gelato, not directly with Gelato (they kindly reordered for free for the third time) but with the Italian courier GLS, that is one of the top player, very strange, my first order had no problems

I like aluminum posters

The first is do the foot work and set passive income as the end goal. I am very picky of the work I do and I’ll be putting pride on the product I’ll be selling. “No none would do job as you except to be done”

Thank you Shimmy for taking the time to debunk these myths around POD. I love your attention and depth of analysis.

Hey Shimmy! What is your opining on the Gildan 2000?

Hi Shimmy, I am a new subscriber and have only seen a couple of your videos so far but I like them a lot, Thanks! Can I please know the name of your Etsy & Shopify stores? I would love to see how you lay them out. Cheers.

I cannot understand why people can be so money motivated when they already have millions, his pod vid just seems like he's scraping the barrel

@@shimmymorris1 Yeah sure, it's not like the purpose is to appeal to his followers

Personally, when I watched his video, I didn't assume print on demand was one of his streams of income. However, hearing your perspective of his video was really helpful because of the large amount of misinformation in this side of social media.
