Hi JOhn. all your videos are super super helpful. I am starting out this business. Have been following you since long time. Can't thanks you enough for all the inspiration and resources. I just wonder if you can tell me where can I get the SSL certificate if I create site from shopify? and is it important to activate that ssl certificate? Thanks in advance.

[@buddyandmissus]

John, what theme(s) will allow putting on design up and giving customers the chance to choose the product- say i have a design of an umbrella and the customer sees they cqn choose to have the umbrella design on a t-shirt, sweatshirt, hoodie or cap-the theme needs to integrate with printify or another POD provider? Do u know various options to achieve this layout? Whats the best way?

[@marbenmasnayon280]

Dude your the best give me a few months, i will show you what i achieved

[@johnxsantos]

Pumped to see it. Keep me updated!

[@Ace-wu4zm]

I have what I feel is a fairly important question, so you start selling your brand name and logo, how ever it is important to trademark any of it and at which point is that necessary?

[@kraken9189]

[@johnxsantos]

YES!!!

[@laciclement8832]

What about creating a domain through Shopify?

[@thermsen121]

Is it possible to have both my own products (that I create and ship from home) and also have some that come from a POD site in the same shopify store? If so, I'm assuming you would have to make it clear to the customer that the items will be shipped from two different locations and therefore have 2 different shipping charges (assuming you aren't offering free shipping)? Thanks for the tutorial!

[@johnxsantos]

Great question, and the answer to that is yes. Doing the shipping settings to have a location that you ship from, and then having the dropship location be a different one. Toward the end of the video in shipping settings I show how you would make adjustments. Dropshippers automatically plug into their product inventory, so you don't have to select those products manually from your store. You just have to manage the ones that aren't associated with dropshipping platforms. 44:00 area we talk about this

[@thermsen121]

Thank you!! Guess I should have finished the video before asking😂.

[@johnxsantos]

you're good! great question lol

[@8sun52]

How do I stage my four T-shirt designs so that shoppers can select any of the nineteen Gildan T-shirt (out of thirty) colors that the designs stand out on? So that they can click a color and click any of my four mockup T-shirt designs? Or however it's done...I connected My POD/drop shipper to shopify. Again, I only want the nineteen colors of the POD T-shirt color chart to be available for the shoppers to choose from. Like on Etsy. T-shirt colors shoppers can choose from a chart. Also, this particular Gildan T-shirt comes in nine sizes. I'll be using Dawn. I kind of understand the Variance section you explained as I did this on Etsy (which I cancelled). I understand that connecting my POD/drop shipper to shopify will bring them in sync. But I don't understand how or what I have to do so shoppers can select the nineteen color choices for my four T-shirt mockup designs. Also, can I export to shopify my four T-shirt designs as one listing? Or export them individually? Also, can I use Open Office to design the logo? I'm completely new to all this...

[@Erysx12]

I wanted to ask something can you have a shopify account if you sell print on demand?

[@johnxsantos]

Yes you can! Shopify plugs into print on demand. And you can also manage your products through it. 34:00 area we dive into that

[@DARIEN-MG]

the fortnite explanation. great vid

🙏 thank you for watching

[@atarikid7424]

whats the word on the Etsy app??

[@johnxsantos]

Can you expand on this question?

[@atarikid7424]

​@@johnxsantos My 2nd reply, 1st one got erased not sure why.. - Etsy integration/automation?? On the Apliiq website theres a section that explains an Etsy app is being developed, any idea on a time frame?? Also, in the meantime, a video on how to manually operate an Etsy/Apliiq store would be awesome! Private labeling, getting orders submitted,etc!!! Thank you
