Mila Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 I have a few things I have made to sell on those tee-shirt websites where they print and sell the items and you make a portion of each sale. I have not made much lately and I would love to get it earning more. I am just not sure how to go about doing this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EagleEye Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 Do you mean you provide the art that is the printed on the t-shirts? Sort of like redbubble? If so does your art have a niche currently? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah the promotion methods are going to depend on niche. If you are targeting a female audience I would work on getting shout outs on Instagram and Pinterest and see if that can lead to a boost. Are you using any social marketing right now to promote your designs? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess, is that you're providing art and they are printing said art to clothes once a purchase is made. If it's something like redbubble, or any of those sites that print for you, it's really up to you to market yourself. Most of these sites will require you to market your products in order to get sales, because to my knowledge, these sites don't promote anything for you, so it really relies upon you to do all of that essentially. But yeah, key thing here is market your products to the world. That means, post to social media. My brother tried out redbubble, made some designs and such, but only sold a few things here and there, because he didn't advertise anything. Just made some stuff, set up and I think posted once to facebook and that was it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yonder Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 You could also work on building your personal brand and then selling merch for that, so people who follow you would buy it, and would open more revenue streams as well 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mila Posted July 13, 2021 Author Share Posted July 13, 2021 Yeah I was looking at different options and currently stuck it out with TeePublic since they seem to pay decent per item sold. If a shirt sells, for example, I make $3. I think I get $5 for hoodies. $0.50 for stickers and pins. I can't remember the rest but they sell mugs, phone cases, totes, and more. I thought that it was enough to put the items on there and using the right keywords but I guess not! I only have had maybe 7 sales thus far. So should I use social media to help boost this? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 Yeah sounds like some exposure could help. More promotion is never a bad a thing. I have been doing a lot of work on Pinterest and I notice tons of print on demand stuff there in the motivation niche. I do not know how many clicks these other pins are getting back to their stores but people would not do it if it didn't provide some kind of value. I have also been having some better luck boosting Facebook posts with the $1 a day method and getting traffic to click through to the destination.
