next to the giveaway link there should
be a link for my free
8 day print on demand mini course and my
print on demand facebook community if
you guys want to join love to have you
all right let's talk redbubble so right
off the bat by the way you can find this
graphic on your redbubble dashboard when
you log in then go to your dashboard
it's like the top thing that loads in
and you can see that from january 1 2020
to january 1 2021
i made 3784.99
of profit from selling on the platform
not bad
and it looks like uh december 2020 was
it's
kind of behind my chair right here but
december was my best month
now when i break down my products by
type and i don't really like this graph
so i actually split them out by product
and i'm going to show you that in a
second but
you get a glimpse of all of the various
product types that i sold redbubble
makes a ton of different products
available
and what i love about them is how easily
you can upload a single image
and make it available for sale on so
many different product types they even
let you go in and optimize
an image specifically for each product
type if you want to and you can
upload and replace the the global
you know initial image that you had
uploaded so if you upload something
um to create the initial listing but
then you want to upload something
different for a water bottle you can go
to
edit the water bottle product and
replace the image that you had uploaded
previously with something optimized for
just that water bottle
so i put these in order
the best selling product that i had in
2020
was the generic sticker i did 458
sales and i keep my profit margins on
stickers between 100 to i think 100 and
like 30
percent next was classic t-shirts 196
sales followed by essential t-shirts 150
for sales
transparent stickers 78 sales
classic mugs 49 sales
greeting cards which is surprising but
47 sales
glossy sticker 40 sales so redbubble has
multiple different types of stickers
and they probably if i had to guess
stickers and t-shirts are the two most
popular products that
sell on the website and it's no surprise
that stickers for me
sold so well even though honestly when i
upload a product to redbubble i make the
primary product that you see it
displayed on
t-shirts because i optimize my designs
for t-shirts
so masks i only made 38 sales and i'm
experimenting with some software that's
going to go back in time
and enable my older listings enable
masks on them because
masks did not exist as a redbubble
product prior to 2020
so i have a whole catalog of products
that i need to get it enabled on
and if it works i'll let you guys know
uh zipper pouches after masks
uh 29 sales spiral notebooks 27
sales pullover hoodie 22 sales
long sleeve t-shirts 16 sales
throw blankets 15 sales now
unfortunately that's not the duvet cover
that makes a little bit of a higher
margin
um the throw blankets i think range from
like 30 to 40
on average so uh there was additional
products but i didn't
go into the less than what less than 15
sales i didn't i didn't include them
uh so if i break down my royalty by
product the generic sticker was my most
profitable it looks like i've made
something around uh 800 between 800 and
850 dollars
from generic stickers followed by
classic t-shirts
then followed by essential t-shirts um
after that it's
pretty even it looks like my pullover
hoodies actually netted me about 200
bucks profit
so for me those were the big um cash
generators and again
i'm optimizing my designs primarily for
amazon merch i mean
amazon merch is my main focus because i
had 100 000 upload slots
to fill up and then i trickle down those
designs and get them listed
on as many products on as many
marketplaces as possible redbubble makes
that very easy to do
but since they're optimized for t-shirts
i you know create my um
default when at the bottom of creating a
listing where you can set the default
i always set it to t-shirt alright as
far as traffic sources
go i had 17 549 unique visitors
and it looks like organic traffic was my
primary
traffic generator and that is defined as
uh
visitors who land on your shop or
product listing from any search engine
such as google bing or yahoo
so most likely people went to google
they typed in whatever
sticker or whatever t-shirt and then
redbubble either
organically or through a paid ad brought
them to the site
and to my listing so the cool thing
about selling on redbubble guys is we
don't have to pay them to do that
they do it for us and then what's cool
is when they capture
a customer they also do these dynamic
emails based on customer interests
and they show them new products and try
to bring them back to the site to
become repeat buyers as far as my google
analytics you'll notice that
it fell off a cliff in december that's
because
i changed my i essentially updated my
google analytics property but
fortunately i was able to recreate a
separate property for all of my tracking
moving forward
so that was taken care of but yeah you
can also add google analytics tracking
to your redbubble account it's there in
the dashboard and um
you know i've got a video tutorial on my
youtube channel if you guys want to see
how to do that
customer locations as you can see here
the majority of my customers were in the
united states
also a decent amount in canada in
australia beyond that i had some in
mexico
some in well you know what i'm just
going to stop there some in europe
i'm going to embarrass myself trying to
do all the geography
but you can see a breakdown in the chart
here above my head
all right so my total sales again on the
year were 1410
sales the retail price of those products
says the money collected from the
customers was eighteen thousand
five hundred eighteen dollars and eighty
six cents
the manufacturing fees were fourteen
thousand six hundred fifty dollars
eighty nine cents and after you deduct
those you're left with the profit
three thousand seven hundred eighty four
dollars ninety nine cents
and i just wanted to shout out merch
titans automation i use
their tool every morning the first thing
i do turn on my computer
launch merch titans hit go and in
addition to redbubble
it also uploads to various other
print-on-demand marketplaces
like society6 teesprings dazzle t public
spreadshirt
and then printful to any of the
marketplaces supported by printful so if
you want to check that out guys
i'll put a link in the description i
know it's been popular with a lot of
people that have been watching my
channel
so merch titans automation that's the
application i use to upload to redbubble
each day because i don't sit here and
manually create
50 new products each day that would just
take too long i also just wanted to let
you know i launched a redbubble course
a few months ago it is very thorough and
i've received great feedback if you guys
want to check that out there's a link in
the description

print-on-demand course

video guys do me a quick favor if you
haven't already hit that like button let
the youtube algorithm know that you like
it

people that watch my videos that aren't
subscribed and you want to do so
that would be awesome and greatly
appreciated but thanks guys have a good
night
