I don't sell any shirts on redbubble. I have 1 design that made me almost $300 since Nov 1st. I sold so many throw blankets, a few phone cases and a few zipper pouches. I made the design a year ago ish, and it didn't start selling until like 6 months after I posted it. It definitely motivated me to keep adding designs because you never know!
@@DetourShirts Great video Juna. Ballpark do you remember your profit with those 500 designs? And was that from Amazon or Teepublic (still haven't gotten approve to sell on Amazon).
I uploaded 13 designs on redbubble 4 months ago. I didn't upload anything since and i got my first sale last month. And after a week i got 2 more. It motivated me to upload more designs. I have over 40 designs now. It takes time. The key is to be consistent and don't quit. Thanks Juna for your videos. These are so helpful.
Thank you so much for your transparency, Juna!!! It's amazing how many people claim they are making $100s of dollars and clearly, they are lying to get views!!!
Well, I believe some people do, but they have probably, either, been doing POD for many, many years, or they are great designers, or hire good designers, and they found a niche that exploded early. I believe it is possible, but you have to work at it! Also, if they have been accepted into Amazon, they have a leg up.
Great vid. Do more like these. We're sick of RU-vidrs only showing how much they make. We want to see the whole process. Big Thanks Juna. I learned a lot from this vid ❤
Wow! Thank you so much for this recap. It is very refreshing to see someone like you being honest about their numbers. So many POD sellers make it sound like people are making thousands of dollars a month, and the implication is that if we're not earning that, we're doing something wrong. Your 31 designs are FANTASTIC and the fact that they didn't sell better is surprising. However, this reality is encouraging because I feel like my designs are okay too (not as good as yours!) and they're not doing as well as I'd hoped. All that to say, thank you for being honest and truthful and not over-hyping your numbers. Your suggestions at the end of this video are great too. Thank you, Juna!
Thank you..... I just wanted to be clear you actually can make thousands of dollars a month but as you saw in this video it would take a lot more than 31 designs... if you uploaded 3100 designs instead of 31 your profit could be 100 times or in the example in the video $50x100 or $5000
Thanks Juna for always being so sincere with your students! it is within my expectation. It takes time to show the result, 45 days is too short. Like Julie Ward mentioned, it takes me 6 months to see the sales too, and is a slow process BUT once I get the sales, it is very encouraging! because people on the other side of the world saw my designs. Really appreciate your sharing, Juna!! Your videos are very educational.
Thank you so much Juna. your videos and facts make me motivated every time. you're doing a great job and keep going. I really love your transparency. 👍👍👍👍👍
I just found your channel and I wish you were my teacher in high school! I might have finished! hahhaa Nah, but you are such a good teacher, super chill and thorough! Thank you braddah!
Very good video. Thanks for sharing the info, and also for pointing out where to find the stats in the various platforms too (where to look for the data), and for comparing the platforms this way, with the same designs, and comparing results. That is helpful. I also appreciate the pacing of your video (slow enough to absorb the points you are making, and to watch the cursor moving to different points on the screen shots.
Awesome 😎. Good to see you do so well on Teepublic. I'm still very far from reaching where you are currently. But I'm thankful to you. Got to learn a lot about making designs using affinity designer. I do agree with Teepublic being your second best. My Redbubble sales are very slow as well.
Juna, Great work here man! I love what you did. Certain designs sell on different platforms because I think there are different audiences. For example designs I upload on Amazon Merch won't sell but they will on Redbubble.
Very interesting video again! I must remind you of the video about how to make a good MBA listing (how to find good keywords in a free way - no paid tools)! :) Merry Christmas to you and your family with health and peace!
31 designs! This is impressive. I've created a video on the strategy I've been using for creating designs on Redbubble to share the knowledge. Have learnt a lot from your content man, please keep it coming 👏
Happy to see you got sales from Shirtober! Hope you do it again next October. I only made a few shirts this year for Shirtober because it conflicted with something else. However, next year I will be more prepared & know what to expect from the challenge, because it sure was fun!
@@DetourShirts It was definitely fun, and I'm going to put it on my October page of your POD calendar. The thing I liked the best, was that you said to put something out, even if it's not "perfect" and that's a really valuable take-away as I'm sure I'm not the only one who tinkers for far too long!
Great content Juna, As you Know Tm is one of the most importtant topic, Please make a Video about Trademark, You Said Earlier You will do? Please Make a video, Appreciate your help
I honestly do not know how people get sales on Redbubble, I have had my shop for over a year with 0 sales, even removed all the older designs and added new ones, but still nothing and almost 0 traffic... I need advice on my shop so badly, I must be doing something wrong
Hi, can I ask you a question? I have great keyword research, a great title, bullets, and description, but somehow after my design went live, I'm not able to find them on Amazon. I can click on the product link from my Merch Dashboard, and I can see the product, but it is not available from the search bar. I know you may say that I could potentially be using a bad keyword combination or something, but when I copy and paste the entire listing title into the search bar, the listing should show no matter what keyword I have used. However, it doesn't. Is this normal? It has already been two days, and the situation has not changed.
It may take a while for Amazon to index it.... but if you wait a week and copy and paste your title into the amazon search bar you should find your design
@@DetourShirts I'm finally in tier 2000 now.. I've been starting prices at $14.99, and then raising them as they make a few sales and get (hopefully 5) star ratings. Sometimes the sale rate seems to slow once I get it a bit higher though. You have really high quality designs though, so that factors in as well I imagine. I'd like to boost the overall amount I make each month while I scale up. Ideally being able to make a full time living some day. Started experimenting with a lottery campaign as per Cameron Scot's recommendations as well. Would you recommend going $19.99 on most designs, even if relevant competition is priced lower? Or would it all depend? Thanks very much!
Thanks for detailed video it was great! I have a question can we use figures created with AI related with celebrities or famous TV shows. Will this cause copyright issues. Again pictures will be created with AI, but definetely they will look likle the actual characters in the TV
Hi Juna, love your video's. You mention at the beginning of your video's that you've been selling t-shirts since 2005. I was wondering if that's how long it took you to create and upload 1100 designs? Plus, you mentioned in this video that Redbubble sells lots of stickers. Do you have any information about designing specifically for stickers? I know you're a t-shirt designer, but I thought I'd ask anyway. I love how you always explain everything in clear, easy to understand language. You give away for free, more useful, actionable information than others provide in complete t-shirt courses. Thanks again, John
Yes. I have a bunch of sticker videos.... here is one..ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-E2NWOei9Zko.html and this one...ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-JqE0KFMeTMc.html.... I been selling online since 2005 but it only took me 3 or so years on RedBubble to get to 1100.... it's not too hard.... It also helped that I had a bunch from other POD sites already so I just transferred them over.
Please, when I upload a design in teepuplic, it tells me that the export failed and try again... And I make the size of the design exactly and in png format and transparent background and everything is correct? Why is this a reason!
Hi Juna! As always, love your videos. A Customer purchased a POD shirt from my Merch store and it doesn't fit. Does Amazon allow them to exchange for free even though it's a custom POD?
I wish there was something... it's pretty much luck at this point... try again next year... You can try at different times in the month... maybe that would help with the randomness
Thank you for helping us. I quit merch by Amazon couple years ago when I discovered they don't have an internal search engine. So you have to buy ads to make sales there?
None of these designs got a rejection but every so often if I forget to check trademarks I will get a rejection.... hasn't happened in a long time though
Detour Shirts Juna ? I like to see you make a youtube video trying out the printify and shopify with placeit, instragram and facebook business combination for like 6 months, and see if you gain a higher profit. Juna try using those designs that didn't sell on redbubble along with new ones and use them on printify on a Bella+Canvas 3001 style t-shirt. Wholesale Ted made her first million in her 20s. Juna I think you deserve more for your designs because I know for a fact that there is something wrong redbubble business practices.
Thanks for sharing! Can I ask.. how do you upload so much and on multiple platforms??? I have an etsy shop and just started a new etsy shop both pod and I have merch that I had for a while and just started adding designs to it but I definitely don't go fast. My first etsy shop have over a 1000 lostings but that took a while. I'm going a little faster bc I finally developed a system that's helping. But are you using some type of bulk uploaded or something lol?
I don't bulk upload... but I do upload one after another manually.... that seem to help rather than designing 1 than uploading that 1 and then designing another one.... I design about 10 or more and then upload all 10
Yes you can... if you made the design it is yours to sell where you want... the only exception is if it's not tied to a fan art brand or something that is only on that POD site
Hey! Your channel is huge, helps thousands of people, but the video length is why you ain't getting enough views I hope you realize that. Make them 8-12 mins top. Cut off the stuff that isn't necessary or write better scripts. Thank you
No... Amazon gets the returns (if they even get returned)..... the only thing that happens to me is that I don't get the profit from the sale because now there isn't a sale ... 0 profit for a return.
Unless you are selling from your own website, customers are not buying from you. You are only the artist. The customers who buy from Redbubble, Teepublic, and other similar sites return the unwanted items to the company they bought them from--Redbubble, Amazon, etc. We are only artists. The companies we allow to use our designs are the ones who take care of order fulfillment, complaints, problems, and returns.
I have added 17 designs till now, will add more but to be honest I have no idea if my designs are good enough or not. In my country Amazon merch on demand is not working
@@DetourShirts I've put on hundreds of designs ofn TEEpublic, they don't show certain shops so no work shown. Christmas on Redbubble made $280 Teepublic maybe $4. Teepublic a waste of time. I'm not wasting time uploading to a group that doesnt promote me.
I've just made 6 sales on Redbubble, this demoted me to leave and stop designing and i have 800 designs, can you please tell me whats wrong with my store?
I've been active on redbubble for more than 2 months now, and it has always puzzled me watching videos like this.... how? On one of my stores despite more than 500 graphics, using appropriate tags, creating descriptions and titles and using niches I managed to sell only 2 things.......... for that the number of hearts is currently growing 2.4k. Do you advertise your products somewhere?
I didn't advertise for either RedBubble or TeePublic.... but as yo saw in the video I didn't make a sale on RedBubble... I really think it's the audience.... We are probably not creating designs that the RedBubble audience wants to buy.
Not sure what your question is.... but TeePublic and Merch by Amazon are separate.... Merch by Amazon or Amazon Merch on Demand is a lot better than TeePublic if you can get in
Hey bud. Im steve. I am merch by amazon designer. I only sold 99$ worth of revenue in december. It was a really crappy christmas for sales. I thought it would be way better. I dont think its your designs. i think its this horrible economy. Cause your designs are obviously real good. Thanks for the videos bud.
So, I’m assuming at that tier you are at the top level. Is that correct? Did it take long to jump up in the tiers? I know that to start with you can only upload a small amount, but as we know SCALE is where it’s at.
I'm not at the very top but I am up there... tier 100k... it took me about 3-4 years..... scale is where it's at for the higher tiers... don't scale at the beginning
Almost 2 years into print on demand, and i still dont know what to create, i spend all of my time looking for the perfect niche that doesnt exist, i see that you jumped into big niches with some great designs, is the quality of the design the most important factor ?, should i jump into big niches with creative designs ? I dont know what to do, what is your advice on making designs
There is no real perfect niche.... you will just have to create unique designs that people want to buy.... the trick is to find the audience and design for them.
Hi Juna..I have a quick question, do you think people like to buy if i do some other design other than tshirt? Like baby clothes, pillow case, blankets etc... Do you think i can earn from those instead of tshirt?
@@DetourShirts im starting to make a shirts that i learned from your videos...and im also want to try some new prodects to design. Thank you for all the videos .i learned a lot. Keep up the good work Juna 😊😊
