Don't Miss The Biggest POD Opportunity in 2024 this Q4 with Amazon

Thank you so much, Juna! Could you please create a comprehensive tutorial video covering everything from A to Z about using Amazon and Printify for print-on-demand?

@@DetourShirts I signed up for the integration and already ran into their ASIN creation limit. I only published 9 items before I started getting "publishing error" on Printify, meaning that I had reached my limit. I've been trying to get some info from anyone and I am not having any luck. It seems that if I publish a t-shirt, for example, and that t-shirt has 5 colors, that is 6 of my ASIN creations already. They are probably also counting the different sizes as separate ASIN creations also, I don't know. I guess it doesn't matter to them, even tho I mentioned it to them (lol) that I've been a Amazon customer since 1998! Can you look into this and see what is true regarding as limits on colors and sizes?

A month ago, I set up an etsy shop, but they permanently suspended the shop before it was ever opened and charged me the 15.00 . They said I could not appeal again. I obviously filled something out wrong but they won't tell me what I did wrong! I am considering approaching the BBB and a couple other Entities. I was crushed!

Hello! Thank you for your video! It would be interesting to see a more detailed video specifically on setting up an Amazon seller center to work with Printify. How do I set it up correctly? What should I pay attention to? How do I add and edit a listing? Will I have my own page on Amazon like I do on Etsy? It is very difficult to figure out. I sell on Etsy, and now I have registered on Amazon, but everything here is very complicated. I watched a video on setting up Printify, which helped a little, but it talks more about registration. It would be interesting to see how to work directly inside the Amazon seller center!

[@DetourShirts]

Yes... I plan on signing up and finding out

[@marychapman3574]

Just so you all know amazon shuts your store down all the time, you have to link a credit or bank card, take a picture of your ID, wait three days for them to get your store live again. They do not let you upload very much. You have to go in and file for a GTIN exemption, which is hard. then you have to keep doing it. they don't let most products go through. you basically have to pay for advertising or they don't show your products, all the while your paying $40 a month, while making nothing. When they shut your store down until you get them your information resubmitted ...you are still paying their fee. anyway good luck. these channels make all of these videos how to get rich, but you put yourself in dept paying for canva, creative fabrica, etc, etc, etc.

[@MyrnaGomez]

Do you have to apply for Amazon pod like we did for Amazon merch or Amazon fba? Or do I just need to have a Printify account and a hellocustom account

[@DetourShirts]

You have to sign up. There a lot of steps and a fees but if you live in the US you most likely will get in. It’s different than trying to get on to Merch

[@seoverus7805]

UPDATE - Only available to US business. Yearly cost at least $468 on AZ costs ($39/month). Printify needs payment up front. So you'll be out of cash flow by about 6 weeks from start and will be needing to fund growth, this will need initial funding and I would estimate a min of $500 to start. All other costs are not included in this estimate. If you got Cash flow and are willing to put in the time = golden.

[@DetourShirts]

Thank you for that. Good to know

Thanks for sharing, this is great to know and especially the differences within Amazon....it seems for POD, that only personalized items will do well. I wish we could do both but no way can you compete with 2 day shipping.

Yes I agree. With HelloCustom automating the personalization, selling personalized POD products is now as easy as selling non-personalized products :)

[@Jo-AnneFord]

Hello thank you so much for the information. I can see that you have a lot of questions after this video. In my understanding I will sign up for hello custom and integrate my store, new store or Etsy store? with Amazon. Is that correct? Do I use the same store name as I have on Etsy to be sure that my designs from Etsy transfer over. Can I use my Designs on Printify that I have oh my Etsy store and transfer them to Amazon this is a little confusing but very exciting. Sounds like I asked some stupid questions but like I said this is a lot to take in.

[@DetourShirts]

It's a totally different store than Etsy. You will have to sign up with Amazon Seller Central. Follow the steps in the Printify video. You can use the same designs you have and same store name if you want but you will have to upload them to Amazon.

[@marcsoltau1442]

While checking the website I noticed that there is also a fee per sale, correct? That was not mentioned in the interview. I also noticed that this fee seems to be higher with the lifetime deal. Monthly subscription is 24,99$/month = 0,29$/sale and lifetime deal is 67$ + 0.49$ per sale. Did I get this right?

[@DetourShirts]

That sounds like a Stephen question but you are right I just notice the $0.29/sale on the website for the business plan.

[@nunosaavedra]

The fees are really quite high.

[@HelloCustom]

Yes, we still have our fee per graphic personalized, but we waive the $29.99 per month subscription. For $67, you get access to HelloCustom lifetime and will never have to pay subscription fees again. For us to make this work on our end, we did have to raise the fee a little, but when a user starts getting high sales velocity, they can switch back to the Business plan for lower fees.

[@OctoKidsTV]

Found that as well. Did a simple calculation on that, and come out with a conclusion whereby it is good and affordable for beginners as the lifetime payment is just 67$ which is way much lower than the original price 300/year. Great for those who has limited initial capital to start a personalization business. Also, not much to lose if the business is not working for a beginner. you only get charged more if you start selling more, in that way which makes the lifetime plan become more expensive (0.49/sale) than the yearly plan at 300 + 0.29/sale. But it’s good if you start making more sales, and still a good tool to invest if your business is growing. Just my two cents

[@chadeki1]

My primary concern with content creators on KZbin is the tendency to overhype topics while only scratching the surface, ultimately leaving your audience feeling confused and uninformed. Take POD integration, for instance-it's not a groundbreaking concept; Printful was the pioneer in this arena. The major hurdle has always been making that crucial "add to cart" button visible on the product page. I even went so far as to create my own brand, yet encountered the same frustrating issue. Recently, I decided to give Printify a try, hoping that their newer platform would offer comprehensive guidance on product uploads and more. However, I'm still faced with the same lack of information and can't seem to get that add to cart button to appear. I’m sharing this message in hopes of receiving some clarity, as I know others will see it beneath various videos like this one.

I understand. This is just the first video to explain what it's about. I plan to do more videos that further explain the process and make it more helpful.

[@DetourShirts]

That's a great question I don't know the answer to. Sorry. I will test it out and when it happens to me I will let you know.

[@49Beatriz]

The return policy is the main reason I haven't started selling on Amazon yet. I've heard a lot of people say that the return policy kills the POD business, especially after Christmas when customers return items for no reason. Because most of the items are single-use, once Christmas is over and people no longer need the products, people take advantage of the return policy to return the items. So if the seller has a way to curb this behavior, then I will consider starting to sell on Amazon. The only way I can think of at the moment is to customize all items, then the seller can declare that it does not accept returns from customers.

[@MariasJournal__]

Thanks for this video it was very informative! I have a question and any help would be appreciated. I already have an Amazon store set up (used to sell products and it is still active). I also have an Etsy store connected to Printify for POD. I would love to sell on Amazon through Printify. Do I connect Printify with my existing Amazon Seller account? Or is it best to transfer what I am already selling through Printify on my Etsy store (thus opening a new Amazon Seller account with my Etsy store name). I am quite confused as to how to go about it? I hope my questions made sense! :D

[@DetourShirts]

If you already have a sellers account you can just connect Printify and HelloCustom and I would start with what you are selling already with Etsy

I think it needs to be made clear that selling products on Amazon using print on demand products is not the same as having an Amazon Merch on Demand account where you have to apply to join AMD and Amazon is responsible for creating and delivering the product.

[@DetourShirts]

That is true... Stephen made it clear in the video. They are separate things

I have been doing POD with printful X amazon for 2 years, I don't think this is new...

[@DetourShirts]

The new part is the personalization

Urgent Questions for you both. 1. Can this work If based in the UK but want to sell to US marketplace? 2. When is Shopify integration coming to HelloCustom 3. Is Lifetime LTD deal going to honour all future updates and are there any upsell funnels? (Hate these) Thanks.

[@DetourShirts]

Great question. I think Stephen knows more than me on these. I'm going to have to double check on which countries can do this but my guess is that those based in the UK would be okay

[@seoverus7805]

@@DetourShirts Thanks sir. Also its important for people to understand the Cash flow situation here as well. As far as Im aware UNLESS you use a POP shop (Only available in USA atm) you have to pay upfront for the prints to printify, please confirm as this will stop many going forward with tight budgets. Salamat !

@@DetourShirts Waiting on this, I am from India and want to know if I can do this from my country?

[@BlondieLou85]

so annoying being excluded from things because not in the usa. so frustrating. printify really dont like the uk

[@DetourShirts]

Yeah... they like to test everything with the US market first since it's the biggest. Sorry

[@reycaribe]

I don't see the big deal. Printful had an Amazon integration years ago. Aren't they better at fulfillment?

[@DetourShirts]

The difference is the personalization.... that couldn't be done with Printful

[@DetourShirts]

If you have a Seller Central account with FBM you should be able to do it.

[@letmeeeentertainyou]

This sounds like Amazon on steroids, lol… but seems to be cool, I might take a look into it

[@DetourShirts]

Good luck
