I’m removing our companies business since Printful supports Pedophilia & the exploitation of children. Would like to know when a formal apology to the gay community will be issued. We want nothing to do with your nightmare of a company.

[@vancuonghoang6871]

I'm not in the US and can I sell on printful?

[@Theafricanwhispers]

Do you print Digital Framed pictures . Can it be downloaded into a particular size and then framed and sent to customer.

[@KeijuMorioka]

Amazing video!👍👏 I just began my comic book collection and found Toon Haven. They have an incredible range of digital comics for every genre, including the hard to find ones. Lifetime updates too!

Super valuable video! I know u had all these information in other videos, but somehow this video sums it up better, so thanks for the effort of recreating older content in a better way! :) I also could imagine watching a mini-series where a person is filmed starting from scratch with his/her printful-store! This person would give additional feedback what you guys maybe couldn't think of because you already that deep into printful already :D

[@PrintfulCustomPrinting]

Thank you! 😊 We're glad you found the video valuable. And thanks for the idea!

7:16 so are you saying that we can order a sample of our products now without the customer purchasing it because back in 2020 in the pandemic it was taken away

[@PrintfulCustomPrinting]

Hey! 2020 was a wild ride, but our sample order policy has changed since then. 🚗 You can check out our current policy here - help.printful.com/hc/en-us/articles/360014067959-How-do-sample-orders-work-. Spoiler alert - yes, you can order samples. 😎

[@frankfaubert1927]

Great video. How are returns or customer dissatisfaction handled? I understand that the customer will contact me if they are dissatisfied but, what is my process with Printful or is there one? Obviously, I'm talking about manufacturing issues not someone saying that they don't like the item or they didn't mean to order it. Neither one of us is Walmart, lol

[@td6471]

Is it not possible to upload the design to several items at once? And can I save and duplicate one template and description and change only the design?

[@PrintfulCustomPrinting]

Hey! No, unfortunately, we don't have a way to upload the same design to several products at once, at this time. Maybe in the future! However, you can save and duplicate one template and edit the design. 😉

[@KaramBredee]

thats amazing, ty for sharing

How do you know how to set the right sales tax on the products you sell? Do you have forms to submit to Taxes?

[@PrintfulCustomPrinting]

Hey! It's always best to consult a tax advisor regarding such matters. Sales tax laws are different in every state, and they change frequently. You can find more info here ➡️ www.printful.com/blog/beginners-guide-to-drop-shipping-sales-tax

Can we do this business from Pakistan as well? Please make a video about the taxes as well if one decides to sell globally these prinntful products on their own website.

[@akj2387]

How do the templates work? It has prices under each template, so do we have to pay to buy a template before we make our design?

[@PrintfulCustomPrinting]

Hey! The process of creating product templates is free. The price you see under each product (03:09) is the product fulfillment price. 👍

[@akj2387]

@@PrintfulCustomPrinting Oh right okay, this is my first time looking into something like this, so will this be deducted from our profit along with tax if a product is sold?

[@PrintfulCustomPrinting]

Not quite. Printful price is what you need to add into your retail price and then calculate and add any other expenses like taxes. We don’t receive your customer’s payment at all. This is how our billing works. There are two separate transactions happening once an order is placed: 1) Your customer pays you for the order through the payment platform you have set up on your store 2) You pay us for the order through the billing method you have added in the “Billing” section of your Printful dashboard. Your customer pays you the retail price you have set up on your store, and you pay us Printful price for the product and fulfillment. Shipping costs and taxes (if applicable) come additionally. Here’s more information on how the Printful billing system works: www.printful.com/payments-guide

[@makosenichuuk7021]

Thank you so much for this video it’s helpful😊😊😊

[@maxchiassonart8869]

I'm an artist and I want to sell prints,posters and canvas. The problem with the templates is : they need to be combined into one template per design otherwise your store just looks like a Giant mess of templates. Is this something I'm not aware of that you can do? Is there a way to combine templates to one design and have for example, a drop down menu with all products that come with this design? Printique has it set up that way (what I loved about them) but their drawback is that they are too expensive for my needs atm. I'm linked up with Squarespace and that's how it's looking now. Maybe I can solve this problem in squarespace..:/

[@hankhillsdisappointedsigh]

What is the drawback of Printique? Your comment just cuts off.

[@maxchiassonart8869]

The drawbacks is this: the materials like the frames let's say that come with the print you sell are very expensive and great high quality stuff but from where I'm from most people cant afford those prices. Other places like "printify" offers cheaper options for frames meaning lower overhead and you can easily raise prices and get more from each sale.

[@trommelbiel]

Cool. Thanks. I'll soon come on board.

[@georginakautu4578]

Do I need to set up my location for posters on printful? It only says US but I'm in the UK. So if someone buys from the UK will they be getting the product from the US? Because I thought they had production in the UK too, thank you.

[@PrintfulCustomPrinting]

Hey! We automatically route orders to facilities that can fulfill them the most efficiently. If the poster variant you're eyeing is available in the US only, the order will be fulfilled there! The availability of all our product variants can be seen on our Product pages under the Availability tab.

Hi Great tutorial ❤ Connect your store to printful. Does this mean I can't simply have designs on printful and sell using just printful But have to connect it to etsy for example?

Is there any way to get better printing quality from you guys? I know there is an option between cold and hot pressed prints, but not sure if this impacts the quality/durability of the artwork?

[@PrintfulCustomPrinting]

Hey, sorry to hear that! When washing the garment, it's always recommended to follow the print care instructions listed here - help.printful.com/hc/en-us/articles/360014066579-Care-instructions. If the print is affected even when washing the garment by these instructions, please let us know by sending a message to [e-mail]! We'll look into that.

What is the Printful wallet to pay manually? You're vid is somewhat helpful but it's more like a very broad overview or refresher vid. You're assuming people know these terms and definitions. The moch-up? That's the models used to simulate how the design looks on people?

[@drvnlp6269]

Does Printful collect taxes from the end users and remit to the appropriate states?

Hey! No, Printful only collects tax from its customers (sellers). Collecting taxes from the end customer is the sellers responsibility. However, there are some marketplaces that charge taxes as well.

This is hardly print on demand. To much work with payment & website. Printful should have that built in. Waste of time.

[@PrintfulCustomPrinting]

@@CoryResilient we recently launched a Quick Stores and it has a built in payment system where you get paid in profit. Check out our content on that :) With ecommerce stores we are not able to connect to seller’s payment systems as we’re not the ones selling it and legally it wouldn’t make sense.

Company mislabeled a piece of merchandise and will not refund. Also the print is coming off due to poor print quality. Avoid at all costs. Extremely unprofessional. Customer service rep “Egija S.” was blunt, insincere and unprofessional.
