Hello, I truly enjoyed your video. However, with Sassymaps, you work with PNG instead of vector files. I wonder what is the quality when the image is enlarged to poster size?
Hi there! Exactly, Snazzy only lets you download a PNG which means you do loose some quality when enlarging the image. To avoid that you must convert it to a smart object using Photoshop or Photopea, or you can always go the vector route which will give you higher quality maps. I've just uploaded a video on how to create vector maps for free! You can check it out here >> ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-1CAKnmgJlSE.html Hope it helps! 🙂
@@paulahawthorne7807 yes! You can try Inkscape which is a free alternative and also gives you great control over vector files! Even the steps and tools used in the video are pretty much the same! 🙂
On the video I showed my first attempt. You sometimes need to try a few times until you get the exact result that you want. But you can definitely get pretty accurate representations with these tools.
😂you are saying the revenue but the profit is way low. Printify is taking 20usd for each phone case and people are selling for 26usd. So if you see someone with 2000 revenue it means they only have 456 as profit and this is without the 15% of etsy fees on the total revenue. Etsy fees will be 300usd. So they are actually getting 156 profit in their pocket.
On 04:28 I go over the precise revenue and profit margins for these products, and they are calculated using one of the most accurate and reliable market research tools available. I'm not quite sure where you get your numbers from, but I'll be happy to clarify any doubts. Have you watched the video? 🙂
@@18thekingman Printify doesn’t have any fees. It’s completely free to use. You only pay for the product, packaging and shipping after you’ve sold it. 🙂
@@rodrigomedeiros4392 that’s a great question but unfortunately no because Canva is not a vector editing software. You can use Inkscape or other similar tools. I’m planning to put together a video on how to create maps using Canva but I’m still figuring it out 🤓
Amazing video! Nice job again! Question about selling maps on Etsy: Is there any disadvantage of offering both the print out physical version and the digital version at the same time on Etsy? Thanks again my friend!! 😊👍🏻👍🏻
@@BenjaminTemplar absolutely no disadvantage. In fact, some of the stores I showed in the video do exactly that, they sell both the physical and digital versions of the map. They both have different profit margins and the digital option is more passive, but still there’s no harm in covering both ends 🤓
@@SantiHustle Thank you very much brother!!! I’m a big fan of your content, you do such an amazing, professional job!! Cheers to your success!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
@@KT97379 Absolutely. In fact most sellers on Etsy sell digital versions of these maps and then the buyer takes care of printing and framing the map. Printify allows you to ship a finished product ready to hang on a wall. But the digital option is just as profitable and even more passive. In that case you simply upload the file to Etsy 🙂
@@SantiHustle ok Nice! Profit Margin will be more I guess ! Btw where can I sell digital versions beside Etsy? Because our country doesn't enable new Etsy sellers sadly !
@@KT97379 In that case I would set up a Shopify store which is available in almost every country. The downside though is that you have to direct your own traffic, but it’s a great way to build a scalable business, and it’s pretty affordable to start with since you don’t have to pay a listing fee for every product that you want to sell 🤓
Great video. I have a quick question- you mentioned about converting the uploaded PNG image to a smart object in PS. Would that suffice especially if we are printing complex maps in larger sizes or is it recommended to vectorize the image? For example, I want to print in 12x16" or 16x20" poster size. Would converting the PNG to a smart object be enough or do I need to do anything to maintain the image quality ?
@@MayurWCAM3 that’s a great question. The very best alternative is to have a vectorized map. That way you’ll never get a pixelated result. Converting a flat image to a smart object simply allows you some flexibility when enlarging it or shrinking it, but the end result will never be as high quality as a vector map. Right this moment I’m editing a new video precisely on how to create awesome high quality vectorized maps. I’ll be uploading it this Thursday so stay tuned! Hopefully it will help you achieve the best results possible. I’ll send you a notification when it’s up 🤓
Hey there! The new video on vectorized maps is now live! Check it out here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-1CAKnmgJlSE.html Using this method you can create much larger maps without worrying about them becoming pixelated or loosing quality. Please let me know if it helps and if you have any questions 🙂
You can get some cool mockups from Kittl itself, but if you are looking for a free alternative my go to choice is Pexels, where you can find some high quality picture frame mockups for free. You then need to place your designs on them using Photoshop or Photopea (free) and you are set. Please let me know if a video on the topic would be helpful for you! 🙂
And another creator telling us the same bla bla as others did in 2023 and before. What have changed in 2024? What makes your content stand out from the thousand of other creators that did the same tutorial? Wait, I have a great idea for your next video: Print on demand but with T-shirts.
@@muimuhadresh3986 Hi there! Thank you for your feedback, I’ll do my best to make the next video stand out even more. Is there any particular topic or issue you would like me to make a video about, that could help you with your business or projects? Please let me know, maybe I can help 🤓
@@SantiHustle Will do. I loved your video about monochromatic maps. I subscribed after that one. Maybe a video about how to re-use a Kittl design you made for a hoodie let’s say onto a sticker both for print on demand (not as a digital product) and your opinion about if that is profitable and/or worth your time. Thank you friend!! 😊
@@BenjaminTemplar I just uploaded a new video on how to create even cooler maps, so if you're interested check it out here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-1CAKnmgJlSE.html Also, yes! I'll be creating a Kittl video shortly so i'll make sure to include your suggestion! In the meantime, yes, repurposing designs to use on hoodies as well as shirts, stickers, or even mugs is a totally viable option and many stores do it. In fact, I talk about exactly that on this video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-G5SGSQb6RK4.html Thanks again for your support! 🙂
Kittl is way, way, way, way better than Canva just for the high quality templates alone. I am a paid subscriber and I couldn’t be happier. Even Canva’s paid templates are not even close to Kittl’s. Highly recommended service and platform!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Maybe just kill the freaking clickbait, considering your numbers are not just made up out of thin air, ridiculously high and the monthly doesn't match the supposed annual. I think all creators should be DEMONETIZED for advertising these supposed revenue numbers that are all, 100% manufactured out of thin air to get views.
@@jolonbankey4146 Hey there! Thank you so much for your comment! The revenue numbers shown in the video come from Alura, which is a highly regarded and highly accurate source for estimating Etsy Shops revenue streams. Similar tools are what most professional sellers use to calculate potential profit margins. Hope that clears it! 🙂 Please let me know if you have any further doubts! Have a fantastic day!
@@SantiHustle my point is there are you are telling people they can make $6k+ per month by simply throwing up some underwhelming products. They will need to compete with the other 30k listings posted by people who done nothing but grind their way to the top. Talk about the grind not the easy money which is out of reach for casual viewers.
@@jolonbankey4146 You are absolutely right. Success comes mostly from hard work and consistency, and the successful shops I showed in the video check both boxes. But I can’t really teach consistency and hard work in a 10 minute video. I try to teach how to create the product from scratch, and then the viewer has to do the hard part, which is put in the work. Point taken though. I’ll make sure to put further emphasis on the consistency aspect of the equation in future videos 🤓
£6000 a month don’t talk so much shit 😂 who are buying these idiots 😂 if you sold them at £7 which is what they are worth you would have to sell nearly 1000 every month! You are making £6000 a month off the views on this video 😂 I see through you!
Hi there! Whenever you want to create an image for a given item, you should check the exact dimensions on your print on demand provider. With those dimensions I calculate the image ratio. For example. 2000px x 1000px is a 2/1 image ratio. And so when I create the image on midjourney I make sure to specify that ratio in the prompt "--ar 2:1". Then, once I have the image from Midjourney i go into Photoshop or Photopea, and create a canvas with the item dimensions (2000px x 1000px). I drop my image on that canvas and then convert it to a smart object. I then fit it to the canvas and export the image with the new dimensions. That's the image that I import on my print on demand provider to create the product! Hope it helps, I'll be glad to give you some extra tips if you need to!
I’m getting so much heat because of this 😂 I was planning to show a map of Interlaken but ended up going for Bern and forgot to update the script. Point taken! But it was an honest mistake 😅
