This one is new, I have never head about displate before. Indeed it's kinda perticular this platform and intimidating. By the way how many Pod platforms are u using right now ? Something like 4 or 8 ? Haha! But now I understand that it's a game of quality and quantity which everyone can share the cake.

I am actively uploading on Displate, Merch by Amazon and Amazon KDP the most, and then I play around on Redbubble and others but I am not as regular with my uploads on RB and the others.

Can you make a video about how ai art can be approved on displate?

@bladechild2449 9 ай бұрын

AI stuff is gonna be filtered out so hard now and it's fairly obvious what is and isn't AI art. Tbh, and I mean no disrespect to Zen, none of his designs would've been accepted for new sellers wanting to get onto the platform. Low effort stuff is just gonna get ignored, but people that signed up in the early days don't get policed if they're still producing sales

@ravinarayanau692 3 ай бұрын

you can actually get AI art get approved in displate, but they need to be really good, and perfect to the last bit, now about 50% of the top selling stuff on displate are AI generated stuff(at least i think so, by seeing the bestselling section).and one thing you can observe is that there are no flaws in them, we have to manually put in a lot of effort to edit the Ai generated images using AI or photoshop and make it as perfect as possible,then they will get approved.

When would you start to upload Christmas designs? I have 120+ Christmas designs ready for upload, working as a digital artist for 20+ years, but just started my POD adventure, will it be too early to start uploading now, or should i wait a month or so?

@zenwatercooler 11 ай бұрын

I personally think there is no time like the present! The designs will be available for the next 40 Christmases (I regularly sell stuff i uploaded years ago). It takes a while for designs to get into the search algorythms too so there is no downside to getting them up! ☃️

@@zenwatercooler Thank you so much for taking the time to answer, just started out 6 weeks ago and had 3 sales so far so i think that is good for a start, will upload around 700-1000 designs every year from now on, and plan for a 1000 USD a month from late summer 2024, still far to that goal, but hey gotta try to reach it :).

You can use your own website, or you can use a third-party site like Redbubble, Displate, Merch by Amazon, Teepublic, etc.

Hey Man! Im an artist as well on Displate and im fairly skilled in graphical software but im unsure what niche to choose. I understand you want to find a niche with low competition, but how will i know if the demand is there?

@zenwatercooler 9 ай бұрын

It's a good question - I have a few niche research tools on this channel but really the strategy is to just make 10-50 designs and see if they sell. Pay attention to your sales - whatever you sell, make more of that thing (whether it is in that niche or in that style in another niche).

Congrats on 25,000 sales!!! Do you find that your newer designs get a higher percentage of sales now? I mean comparing each year do you find that you are slightly more locked in to what sells? I'm FINALLY actually putting my portfolio together for both Displate and Amazon Merch. I'm using Behance and debating on how many folders and designs I should show. Separating photos from graphics is easy enough. I'm debating mixing "graphic only" with "text and graphic" designs in another folder. And then "text only" in a third folder. Maybe 15-20 designs in each. If you think I should do this another way please let me know. I just started Behance so am learning on the fly. If you think this

@zenwatercooler 11 ай бұрын

I agree, Behance is what I use and I find it simple (and free). I have some best sellers on Displate but I just made a new design about 6 months ago that moved into my top 5 so it definitely is possible for new designs to crack into bestseller status 👍

Displate is not accepting new artists right now Only new customers so I don't know how this video will help us Is there any marketplace that serves as an alternative to Displate?

@zenwatercooler 10 ай бұрын

To answer your question, I get many requests from existing Displate sellers for advice so this video may help them more than people trying to get in. There is an alternative supplier of metal signs: kzbin.info/www/bejne/i6fNaZaMba-ohsUsi=IP1ouQSffCFsrFvo

Yes exactly, Black Friday is typically my best day on Displate (I made 400 sales in one day, that was my best day ever). I am hoping to get at least $2,000 per month in the autumn! Very grateful to Displate, I am always trying to grow!

Displate accepet IA designes ??

@zenwatercooler 11 ай бұрын

They can, provided that the auality meets their standards (300 dpi and larger than 2900 x 4060 pixels). It can be difficult getting AI sites to produce this level of design.

@2009R74 6 ай бұрын

I'm sorry but if I uploaded the kind of designs you show in this video, Displate would reject them. They have a design approval policy that no one understands. They accept AI designs, they accept designs made with Canva, but I've seen good illustrators complain that they don't accept their work. It doesn't make sense.
