in the next two weeks
all right so today we are talking fitted
masks on redbubble and before i show you
like how to create them how to enable
them on old products
and a tip to increase your sales i'm
gonna go through the
redbubble blog post that introduced
them so coming soon fitted masks back in
april we launched masks on redbubble
since then we've been listening to
artists and customer feedback
and working on adding more mask options
in september we launched a smaller mask
for kids and we're excited to announce
we're about to add new fitted masks
customers won't be able to purchase them
just yet but they're available in the
uploader now so you can add designs and
prepare your products for launch
here's everything you need to know about
our new masks so that means you can go
back into your existing listings
and enable the masks and i can show you
how to do that later
about fitted masks fitted masks have one
outer layer of soft brushed polyester
and two inner layers of 100 cotton
your design is printed on the outer
polyester layer they come in two sizes
regular for adults and small for
age 13 plus years fitted masks have
bead toggles on the ear loop straps so
the wearer can easily adjust the fit
they also come with glasses friendly
nose wire for a snug fit over the nose
and darts to cover the chin and face
securely they can be machine washed and
tumble dried after each use
so fitted masks are for ages 13 plus
only cloth masks are not designed for
medical use
or as personal protective equipment
against you know what
against the cerveza flu how to add
fitted masks
to your shop fitted masks have their own
uploader tile so it's easy to add them
to your shop just scroll down to the
tile
check you're happy with the positioning
of your artwork
and then tick enable if you'd like to
customize your design you can use the
replace image to upload a version
just for this product so you can replace
the image
just for this product within your
product creation screens
design template and tips we've created a
design template to give you more control
and help you place elements on specific
parts of the product your design
should fill the whole template and make
sure the most important parts of your
design are within the ti
the safe zone click on the image below
to save the fitted mass template as a
png or download the template here i'll
also put a link in the description of
the redbubble mask template so if you
guys just want to skip straight to
downloading it um you can do that just
from this video
to use the template open or import the
file into your editing software as a
separate layer so if you just drag and
drop that into photoshop
it's easy create a new layer for your
design and adjust the opacity
so you can see the template underneath
and this is what it looks like this is
just a flat png image
so when you move it into your graphic
design software of choice photopia
canva photoshop whatever it will just
exist as a transparent you know where
you don't see content will just be
transparent
are almost done when you're designing
fitted masks the most important thing to
consider is the darts
for the nose and chin those areas will
be sewn together to fit the face
more snugly so any design details that
cover that part of the template won't be
visible on the finished product
the examples below show how you can
place your design elements
you can choose to avoid the dart areas
altogether or position elements on
either side of the dart
so they're aligned on the finished
product and then you've got some
examples there from the
redbubble blog by the way you see how
they uploaded a picture of a rainbow but
then if you use that
tiling you can kind of scale it down and
it will repeat the pattern
so you've got options we're expecting
the holiday season to kick
off a little earlier this year so now is
a great time to add new fitted masks to
your shop
don't forget to check your tags and help
customers to help customers discover
your products in redbubble search
and if you've been working on any new
designs we'd love to see them
in the comments below alright that's at
the end of the blog post so
uh that i'll put a link to the blog post
too if you guys want i'll put links to
everything if you want to check out this
uh where i got this
content if you want to download the
template etc i'll put it all in the
description but here is what i did when
i was exploring the new fitted masks
you'll notice that it's marked in purple
it says new and by default if you go to
actually i think it's pretty much if you
go to new or old listings because i did
upload a couple
new designs as well they were not
enabled by default so
you'll have to go in and click the
little disabled button to enable it
as you can see i got like a fun little
cartoon pineapple pattern
i'll show you where i got that later and
then by default
you know since this is just an all-over
print pattern that's pretty much
optimized for things like phone cases
masks etc
i wasn't feeling like i needed to
reposition it i just kind of liked it as
is but by the way
uh i have like the tiling going on here
so i just scaled the image down
and i also actually did change it's not
visible but i went to choose pattern and
i chose the
kind of like the though i think it's the
bottom option for like the
four times uh pattern repeating
and then i scaled it down to 37 and now
you've got a bunch of like mini
pineapples all over the place so i just
want to let you guys know that's an
option
um it's one way if you're just uploading
and selling on masks like
you can take one image and you can make
at least two different
products from it you know you'd have to
upload it twice but like you can have
one where it's
the standard version of the image like
on the redbubble blog post it was just
one rainbow
then you can upload it again and use the
scale image and the
the tiling and make it a multi-rainbow
listing as well so you can get two
products out of it
now this is the for those of you guys
that stayed with me uh this is your
reward so
this is one way that you can increase
your sales for sure
the default price for these masks is
twenty dollars
twenty point zero zero if you just
change your markup
by the way all you have to do when
you're editing the mat the fitted mask
underneath the pencil icon there's a
gear icon the pencil is what you see by
default so you have to click the gear
and then uh change the markup the
default is twenty percent it takes it
the price to twenty dollars
just change it to nineteen point nine
percent that way you'll reduce that left
digit by one you go from twenty to
nineteen which
if you missed my video on pricing
psychology i can drop a link to it right
here
right here in the youtube cards and i
mean we used
data from the big e-commerce website
gumroad that confirmed that just doing
that
reducing that left digit by one even if
it's only dropping a penny off the price
can result in over a three percent
increase in conversion rates so that to
me is a no-brainer
although one thing uh to note is that
like redbubble does change the base
costs of their products all the time and
they don't like send out notifications
so this 19.9 markup if anybody's
watching this video in the future
this may not line up you may need to set
a different markup to get to a different
price point that that happens all the
time actually in my experience
so just letting you guys know those
those you guys watching it uh around the
time that i released this video you're
probably good with 19.9
now i promised i would show you where i
got some of these um
all over print optimized designs and
i've been using vexel's
personally i mean i know there's
probably a ton of places you can go
on my channel i'm gonna speak to my
personal experience
and there's no way for me to know every
single place to go for designs by the
way if you have good feedback about
places you can go for
all over print stuff and if they're free
or cheap or anywhere like that anything
like that
let us know in the comments below i'd
love to hear from you but vexels is what
i've been using for i've been using them
also for um
amazon merch phone cases i was thinking
i might do a video on that this week
but as you can see they work great for
masks as well
and you know it's as simple as just
downloading it and uploading it from
vexel so
they're also easy to edit by the way if
you wanted to customize it they give you
the raw design files as well as a part
of
joining vexels so i've got a link in the
description if you want to check that
out you can see
the pineapple design looks like that on
the website upload it to redbubble and i
played around with the tiling here's
another one i just grabbed a
halloween pattern all over print and
uploaded it to a mask and i think that
looks pretty nifty
for a halloween slash trick or treater
fitted mask if anybody wanted to buy one
and while we're on the topic of
halloween face masks did anybody take
my idea of a cheap halloween costume
bundle
of like a t-shirt plus face mask
combination and run with it if anybody
uh made any money doing that let me know
in the comments below i'd love to hear
from you
all right that's it for this video guys
i hope you enjoyed it i hope you make
some money selling those fitted face
masks
and uh wait there was one more thing i
wanted to mention what was it oh yeah
last thing i wanted to mention this is
why you stay till the end
don't forget if you upload a design
optimized for
a specific product type in this case
face masks don't forget to set your
primary
uh product thumbnail which is just a
little drop down
on the product creation prompt in
redbubble don't forget to set that to
the correct product type because that
can make a world of difference so that's
my last tip guys thank you for watching
till the end
