Thank you! This is exactly what I needed! I love your channel, you, and your content!!❤

[@mamabtinytreasures]

Wow finally someone who clearly made it much easier to understand. I live in Canada and I want to use monster digital for my print provider for USA and CDA. So I would put USA as my origin because most of my customers I want to sell to is in the USA. So I would put Free shipping for USA (put shipping into my price) then for CDA I would allow Printify to give me the shipping cost and leave it like that correct? Hope your answer is yes which would mean I understood your lesson today. You are a very good, clear and to the point KZbinr which I truly appreciate. Ty

[@InvestWithFFI]

Very thorough and detailed video. Super helpful!

[@jenandbob8424]

Super helpful! Thank you.

[@lynngamsky275]

THANK YOU so much for this video! Exactly what I was looking for. Someone to confirm my understanding of what I thought was happening with shipping on Etsy.

[@ladycroft69]

This was EXACTLY the video i needed, thank you! Been looking for a thorough vid on shipping profiles so I'm glad I found this one - very concise and easy to understand. Instant subscribe too!

[@lher85]

Thank you so much for explaining shipping profiles thoroughly. 🙏 Love watching all your videos! They’re so informative and have helped me so much when I opened my Etsy shop a few months ago.😊

[@williamnivala1478]

Thank you for the info. This was one thing I was unsure how to handle. Since I live in Germany but I wish to sell mostly in North America and Europe.

[@RealEstateDreaming.]

That was a really good video

[@lovetoyoutube5412]

Thank you so much!

[@wixpo1]

Hi, Can you make a video for shipping upgrade?

[@MariaLuluGarza]

Great video I wish I understood all this when I first tried to learn the shipping. I have a question in the video you said you would go back and explain the default shipping profile that is assigned from selecting assign new shipping profile. I have been editing that default profile to match the production days to Printify because it seems to always come up as 1-7 days and I don't know how it determines what the estimated day of delivery is but it seems to be up to 14 days when you see the Etsy listing and that's too many days. So how does it determine the delivery date so I can match it with what Printify says? Also how can I be sure that the shipping for the 2nd items will be what Printify will charge me? What really is inconvenient is when I go to do a pretend order Etsy tells me oops you can't purchase your own products so how can I test the orders one would make to be sure it will be charged correctly?

[@shakedshamir3057]

Thanks for the detailed information, super helpful! I was left with one question: if I have items in my store that I create & ship my self AND print on demand products - can I add two different countries of origin in two separate shipping profiles? Thanks in advance!

[@user-xz3nd2oi9z]

Great video very helpful!! I have a question - for international shipping costs you have suggested to use rate table from provider info, however that would not be solution you would use if you would select automatic order routing for international shipping. SO what solution would you use instead for this option? Thank you?

[@jodieshark8482]

Is there a way to put addon options in the cart, for example, an addon for another design Area that is not on the listing

[@LindaBlatchford]

Hi Jeff, I'm not sure which video I watched, but I downloaded the spreadsheet you use for POD. I'm not good with formulas and am wondering how I would add the 15% offsite ad fee to this spreadsheet. Can you please help me with this (if it won't take too much time)?

[@ruthvidal6466]

This was so good for me, ty! I have a question though. I have on my mugs, one listing showing 11oz and 15 oz, but only a profile for both so 15oz shows shipping price of 11oz? Still searching for that answer. Not sure how to list both profiles under one listing?? TY! keep on seaching, keep on searching, lol

[@TekkitsWorkshop]

How should I handle shipping profile, where I use single print provider, that has multiple fulfillment centers around the world and automatically uses the closest one? The only thing I could come up with is to create duplicate listings for different regions. Any better suggestions?

[@keremoznacar34]

Hi, thanks for the explanation. I have an issue regarding duplicating a shipping profile. I have two t-shirts that have the same shipping profile and are from the same print provider. I want to set two different shipping profiles for them. I've tried to duplicate the common shipping profile since I want to set different shipping prices for each of them. But whenever I clicked duplicate, it did not work. Is that a common issue? Should I just create a new shipping profile from scratch and assign it to one of these t-shirts? And if I create, should I copy and paste every information other than shipping prices? I would be very happy if I solved this. **Update** : I encountered the same error (we could not update your profile) while I was creating a new profile but it worked when I set a shipping service other than "other".

[@listentotheanimalscreamsha1511]

Can you do video on printing TikTok Tok shop. I hopeI set mine I did the free shipping hope its right.

[@AliKhan-fo2jc]

Hi, have one question. If have to open my Etsy account heard that they will hold you money for 3 months. If yes then if have to sell my things through Printify have to pay for T-shirts and other things or it will detect my money from the order money. Hope so get the answer. If you don't get my point can explain it to you again. Thanks

[@alanchu4286]

I try to do a search on my manufacture in printify, I could not find their location and zip code. What should I do?

[@j348011]

You can find your print providers ZIP Code if you send a text file with your print providers information. It will be located in the automatic with the test file that is sent over for the listing. Because the way you're showing this in the video that ZIP Code could be that where the main office is and it's not the factory where it's being sent from. When I opened my Etsy shop, I called them and it's a different ZIP Code. Again, just send a text file to your Etsy shop with a profile.

[@teresuhhh]

If this is the second video, where is the first? Sorry, confused.

[@OptimisticDreamer1]

My god this guy is good lol

[@DOCSUNRAY]

Hi Jeff, can you use one shipping profile for Swiftpod and Monster if both the products shipped are tshirts. Or do you recommend keeping them separate due to zip codes being different? (all while offering free shipping)

[@Bekind95]

My question also.

[@PODinsights]

Yes, you can use one shipping profile in this situation and I do exactly that myself. Mine is based on Monster Digital's zip code but I have some listings set up with SwiftPOD t-shirts because they had a color or size I wanted that MD did not. Etsy uses the origin zip to estimate delivery time to the customer, but beyond that there seems to be no significant impact if the order ships from a different zip code than what is in the shipping profile.

[@davis_drive]

PLEASE make a video oh how to do free shipping for Printful.

[@user-tx8if5us6p]

Please help! I have my shipping set to 2-5 days and when I go to my Etsy Shop it still says est. delivery 20-27. I cannot get this down! My St.Patty shirts will not arrive in time. Also To be able to have express shipping I have to delete a color in order to get express shipping applied.. I only have white and green available. What am I doing wrong here??

[@PapandeNewmanGraphics]

I do not have what you show is this a premium account?

[@BlondieLou85]

I've created hundreds of designs and not yet posted them purely because of the shipping profile confusion.

[@SurvivaloftheSaints]

Thanks! It doesn't say "Shipping" in my ETSY store, it says "Delivery". It doesn't show any Printify providers there either, it just says "Delivery option" and it wants me to select a Delivery profile.

[@SurvivaloftheSaints]

It doesn't seem like I am able to manually select a different print provider for the four markets I am operating in: UK, USA, Canada, Australia. Is it correct that I will have to select 'one shipping profile' which will have 'One Print Provider' regardless of the customer's location? Normally, I would just create separate listings with separate print providers and update the product title and description with the market (e.g. UK - Schnauzer T-Shirt) (USA -Schnauzer T Shirt), but ETSY frowns upon creating Duplicate listings. So how then do ETSY sellers optimize their shops according to price, shipping cost, and profit margins, if we are forced to only select a single print provider that operates in multiple countries? This ultimately makes the cost of goods more expensive and less likely to convert sales

[@raf1717]

What if im in europe, and uses pod with many printing companies all over the world, but most of my customers will be from the US. WHAT SHOULD i set my countrynof origin?

[@danimotherofchickens479]

Why can't we just use printify shipping profile they give us

[@DgtlCustomSolutions]

the updated shiiping methods on Printify are just so bad.
