the previous months to help you grow your business and help you give you a better understanding with
print on demand so check that out down below and let's get into the content all right so the first
one redbubble is probably one of the most popular platforms when it comes to selling your designs
on okay so it's really popular for artists and not only that it's popular for non-artists like
myself right i i'm not good at designing i'm not good at none of that stuff but i'm really good
at researching you know you know and i do have a team that i outsource personally myself and
i make sales over there right but also simple does sell like i've always said this in all my videos
simple designs do make sales but as you start to make sales you want to figure out how you
know how you're going to you know increase your sales by maybe creating a higher quality design
right so but simple sales right simple text based words on a on a product do make sales
i make sales with products where you know i have a two letter word or three-letter word on a product
and it sells consistently over and over and over right um so it all depends on what you're good at
okay if you know how to draw do that okay if you know how to make simple text-based designs do that
you know if you have some type of humor and you can put together a funny saying on a shirt
and use that to your advantage to make money to make sales right
so redbubble is basically what what it how it works is you put a design on a product
right and when you put a design on a product right the customer if they like that product
right let's say for example a t-shirt you put the design on on a t-shirt customer sees the t-shirt
they purchase it redbubble ships and prints it to the customer right or was it is it a print then
shipped to the customer right that's what they do so when it comes to that right there it's really
really awesome it's really amazing yes that's what it is it's called print on demand okay you don't
care no customer service to hold no inventory okay you go create an account on rebel it's free
okay once you create your account then you know you want to figure out you know
how you want to either you know create like a niche store or do you want to create like a um you
know like a general store where you have different categories and stuff like that different niches in
that store um from you know like a pineapple you know pineapple designs to you know uh a monkey
design right so that's what i mean by that and how you want to go about this right you know how
you want to put your designs on products and stuff like that and of course you want to customize your
whole store and make it look pretty which we'll get into that in this video and once you make a
sale right you basically collect that royalty from that sale okay so which is really cool
um redbubble is really really awesome when it comes to that because it's really no startup cost
okay you just have to learn how to create a design and put it on a product right so it's that simple
but you know of course this takes a little bit more work and knowing what your customer wants
all right so i uploaded the design already um i come over here so standard print clothing so
this is a you know a standard t-shirt so i'm gonna edit this i'm gonna make sure this is black um one
of the cool things you can see how i can position this okay um this is really cool because you can
add this to so many different products once you upload it it you know it makes it available on all
these products and what you're doing is you're just coming in here to make sure it's on there
there correctly and they keep adding more and more products okay you can see right
here caps for example let me edit this one you know check this out which is really cool so
you can you know you can just position the product how you want it let's come over back over here to
this t-shirt right here so if i could scale it out look it could scale it out um just you know
different mock-up colors right and the default color which is really cool then you go down what
i'm going to do you will basically would just make sure that it's all you know the correct size on
her shirt right you don't want it to be you know all the way like that you know you want to make
sure that you have the correct size on the shirt the way um you know it is uh as you go down you
can see you're going to see all these different products phone cases skins pillows totes and you
know like i said you would position them correctly size them to the correct um you know however you
want it on your product it's all up to you how you're going to put it on the product right okay
so um from pillows to shower curtains travel mugs um hardcover card cover journals right um which
is really really cool um there's just so many different products to you know that way you can
you know put it on there the way you want to put it on there right every and then you know you can
just there's so many different tools so you can center it you can you know set the background um
you can choose a pattern okay you know let's see what i did right there i can just mess with the
pattern you know front to back you see how i did that you know which is really cool okay so how the
way you want to do it clocks i've sold a few of these right here which is cool um really awesome
product to sell i would never even thought someone would buy my clock
right and some of the weirdest stuff sells so like don't be afraid like if you do it and you
come up with an idea don't be afraid to you know put it up up there and make it for sale
um but i would reposition all these like i said um but i just wanted to show you like different types
of products that are available on revolve that you can sell okay so what i would do is come in here
reposition all these make it all look all pretty and make sure that it makes sense this design
makes sense for that product and you have several different products that you can sell on here
okay this is powerful because it just you never know what someone's gonna buy okay and then the
product that you sell price points and stuff like that and the margins and all that stuff you know
every single product is going to be different some of these products have a higher margin and people
will buy them at that price point and some people will you know it's all about testing at the end
of the day when it comes to that too as well okay but the tools that they give you compared to other
platforms that you know i settle designs on this is cool because it gives you tools inside here
to help you you know resize the product reset i mean resize the design on the product and make
it sure that it looks good right so it's really cool it's really cool how they do all this stuff
for you but like i said from a t-shirt all the way down to a you know a phone wallet
floor pillow you know sleeveless tops aprons cotton totes pin pin buttons
see what it looks like right
okay boom boom did that apply boom there right so really awesome all right so i'm gonna blur
out some of this stuff but a cool thing too with a rebel redbubble you can you're selling your your
products like worldwide globally okay as you can see like these are all products that have sold
um but you can see in germany france united states united states united states united
kingdom australia and you see the power of this because you're pushing your products
you know to the world okay in your design and people are buying them okay so this is really
really cool um you see that when you see all these cells coming in you see the consistency coming in
it's like wow this this is cool this is amazing i literally sold my design to someone in germany
right and it's shipped to them and i don't have to worry about no customer service no no nothing but
someone bought my design okay my product okay in another country so that's the power of uploading
a design and putting it available online you never know who's going to buy your product right as you
can see right here in this screenshot that i'm sharing with all right and here's an example of
how i price my products from the markup i put is 55 and as i come down right here you're going to
see you know stickers all of my stickers are put at 200 okay what i recommend when i first started
doing this i started listing you know putting my margins like at 25 30 15 i was always testing out
just to see if it you know if i would make more sales and then it really really comes down to it
if you make it feel like if that customer is happy with that design and they want that design they
really don't mind paying the 55 percent markup or that 200 markup for stickers you can probably
even put it up more i haven't tested that yet but this seems to be like the sweet spot for me
i sell products sometimes and make like you know one product will make me like a 15
royalty 20 royalty and just that one product right and that's which is really really cool
now you know you sell two or three of those in one day you know that you can make anywhere between 50
to 100 bucks per day which is really awesome with red bubble right especially going into the busy
holidays like q4 and stuff like that you'll make sales and you'll see these high margins coming in
and people just buying multiple products multiple shirts multiple stickers and it just all adds up
right so it all depends at the end of the day it depends how you want to do it you can go anywhere
between you know 55 to 200 percent markup as you can see right here in the example that i'm
sharing with you guys and this is my personal account and exactly how i mark up my products
and just want to show you give you guys a better understanding of what's possible okay i'm not
going to tell you how to price your products it's all up to you you can test it but i'm going to
share an example with you rebel also has a partner program too as well okay so you can you know
you can actually design for some of these big brands on this platform which is really really
awesome um so it shows you you know how it works okay brand partnerships we partnered
with a few amazing brands so far and it keeps growing right and you so let's click right here
to check out the whole list let me pull that up so current band partnerships and it shows
you all the information here brand partnerships check the guideline make sure you obviously check
the guidelines with that brand to make sure that you know you follow within their role so you can
actually you know create a design it'll be live on the platform um and then tag your work and
stuff like that it shows you all that information but over here if you come over here it's going to
show you a list of the brands right this was last updated december 6 2021 which was you know today
as me making this video but you know look at they have johnny bravo jaws um they have some really
cool brands in here that you can design for and of course every single one is going to be different
so you want to make sure that you're following all the rules when it comes to the guidelines as
they said as they say and look back to the future one of my favorite movies of all time um but it's
really cool that you know a lot of these a lot of these platforms are kind of moving this way
you know and making it easier for us you know like if we want to make it more funner for us right
and if you want to design for some of these brands you know as long as we follow the guidelines we
can make make it a design for that brand which is freaking amazing right because back in the
day like you would have to go through all these loops and do all this stuff and you wouldn't even
know where to you know get a licensing uh from these brands right but you can do that on here
as long as you follow on the guidelines and you can have it live and next thing you know you
know you're getting your royalty making sales and you made a design for one of your favorite brands
right so very very cool this is you know redbubble partner program okay just follow all the rules and
you can actually create something for like i said one of your favorite brands really really awesome
also too redbubble has a really awesome blog as you can see right here uh redbubble tagging 101.
um they and and they just go into detail on this whole blog so they kind of built a community for
the sellers over here to help you out and stuff like that just getting started on red bubble you
can see right here um and self promotion right and that's something that's big too with print on
demand if you guys are unaware like when it comes to as we get more and more competition you have
to figure out how you're going to promote your products okay either that's going to go build a
like a presence on social media building your audience on social media building that brand
and then when you drop a product boom it makes sense so there's something like when it comes to
this you're getting more more competition so you have to think about okay how can i stand up from
everyone else how can i make more sales or how can i rank faster on that front page or whatever it is
right this is important so understanding that you know building an audience that you can promote to
is very important how to promote like you know look at all this these different types of topics
december uh yearly artist pa payment uh check your payment details just a lot of like top stories and
they're very consistent over here and then just get sharing a lot of tips and tips and tricks to
help you sell more products you know and then introducing new products and stuff like that
which is awesome so i would recommend you come over here check out this redbubble blog
that they actually provide for you guys which is amazing also one underrated
trick i'm gonna blur this out too as well because it's obviously my google analytics id
you can put your google analytics id in right here and it will show you like the traffic that's
coming over you know so if you're ranking let's say you're ranking on google and they're clicking
on google it'll show you like the traffic to that page and google analytics is very very powerful
okay um as far as tracking okay they it like shares like it's like one of the best tracking
systems out there or is the best tracking system out there so if you can see you know by looking at
the analytics from like what maybe one product page when you link this right here you would
go over to obviously google analytics created a tag boom you plug it into here
and you can basically what you're doing is go over to google analytics log in
and as you start to get traffic and stuff like that you're going to see what pages are getting
viewed from google and you know you're going to see that like okay obviously people are
searching for this and this is a getting amount of views that's a good sign it's kind of just showing
you that there's a demand for this product right and there's or there's a demand for this nation
people are searching for it so think about it that way i use it with my blog if you guys are
unaware of my blog i do have a blog down below in the in the description check it out i use
the google analytics for that in the google search console to you know see what traffic and see what
uh see what blogs are ranking and and where's my traffic coming from and i have this okay cool this
seems to be an interesting topic people like to talk about this i mean people like to search for
this and find this and i'll create more of this right so that's the idea behind that
and you can see you know if you're getting sales or or things or like you know get the traffic's
coming over there to your product obviously if you're getting sales consistently it's coming
from somewhere and you can track it that way and you want to create more of that product for
that niche okay i understand what that customer wants create more of it so this is a hidden gem
right here if you're not using that use it and as you can see redbubble is an awesome opportunity
okay and if you want to learn more about rebel check redbubble check this video out right here
