Thanks for putting this together Drew and thanks for showing in the video. Is POD saturated? I think it saturated with simple designs that everyone can make... but it's not saturated with really good unique content. That is the key. Create designs that no one else would that people will want to buy.

[@Kittldesign]

Great points, Juna. Sounds like the makings of another great conversation we can have for Coffee With Kittl. 🙏

[@Kateilz]

I loved that video coffee with Kittl it was great, as always you guys are very insightful

[@NiaLaLa_V]

On the other hand, I am one of those wreckless adhd shoppers, and I have a house FULL of stuff that is POD simple stupid designs that I thought were cute and I just had to have them. Market to me, you will sell it lol.

[@NiaLaLa_V]

I'm here because my grandma groomed me to be an artist, from the time I was a toddler she had paint brushes in my hand. But tremors runs in both sides of my family, and I got it so bad I gave up art when I was like 19, I was tired of my shaky hands betraying me and ruining everything I tried to do. (it's worse if you concentrate) I have always believed digital art would be too hard for me too, because photoshop melts my brain. But Kittl changed everything. I love all of you, thank you so much for what you are doing. I don't even have time for my usual video game obsession right now, it's all about designs and my husband is even getting into it because you make it so easy. Thank you.

[@Kittldesign]

So happy to hear this! We're so glad you found Kittl!

[@RVincents]

Kittl going above and beyond. I have been with you guys a while now. The second I tried Kittl I joined up. I have been with Adobe since they started and have been a beta tester for them and use and tried many other software and apps. I immediately saw the benefits and ease of use. I am excited for the new tools that are coming... But it's also videos like this that tell the truth. The gurus can do great harm in all the information they put out about how easy everything is. I have been selling on Amazon since 2009...the gurus made it sound so easy...it wasn't. Their money is made by affiliates classes products and monetizing their channels. I don't begrudge them their living and I appreciate what I learn But they have to stop telling people to copy best sellers and saying pod is passive..like you said it isn't. It requires work talent and education. Thank you for this video and the integrity to make it! I appreciate everything Kittl is about

[@Kittldesign]

Thank you so much for the kind words, and for the points made here. And thank you for watching and using Kittl!

[@RVincents]

@Kittldesign you have integrity. I appreciate that and it makes me want to support Kittl all the more

[@jayswayworks]

Great video man! When i hear "It's just over-saturated" in reference to POD, all i hear is, "I'm afraid of competition and don't want to put in the work". In all actuality there are sooo many research tools out there now so it's almost impossible not to find a winning niche or aesthetic, and there's AI for endless ideas, and design tools like Kittl give you such a head start from a design perspective that it's literally never been easier to start a POD business.

[@Kittldesign]

Great points here!

[@lic0250]

Thank you Drew and the whole Kittl Team for your work!!! It is amazing to see how much effort you put in this Thing!

You are most welcome!

Thanks man, I like your approach, I'll be checking out more of your videos.

[@Kittldesign]

So glad to hear that! Cheers!

[@helensolleconner9698]

Thank you, I wish I'd known these things before my first attempt at online t-shirt sales over 15 years ago. You give me hope for my next attempts

[@Kittldesign]

Go for it! With the right mindset, things will really come together.

[@sheliaslife]

Thank you 🙏🏾 I need to get started

Awesome Vid, So many youtubers I feel just put random numbers on thumbnails for views and make it look way easier than it is

[@londonstar3657]

Awesome video and truth. I haven't heard anyone say the truth about this topic of POD the way you explained in this video. What you said is very inspiring and the truth, very powerful.

[@Kittldesign]

Glad it was helpful!

[@markcurranjr7366]

I haved loved Kittl up to when you changed the artboards yesterday. Maybe I will get used to it, but it has set my production time back, things dont work like they did, and I really dont like that..

[@Kittldesign]

Hey there, we're not entirely sure why that would be the case, as you don't have to use the feature if you do not want to, and the logic works the same as with your previous projects, except now you can create, duplicate, or iterate multiple designs within the same project, however, you do not have to use it this way if you do not want to. We will work on more videos that make this clear.

[@markcurranjr7366]

I'm not sure what you mean. The entire workspace changed. The Art board disappears ( I found out where to turn it back on since). When you bring transparency down on the artboard to zero, the artboard also disappears and returns at 1%. Downloading doesn't retain the dimensions like before, I have to reset it every time.just all extra steps that weren't needed. So, no it's not like it was before. I'm sure I will.get used to it and I'll have to watch a tutorial, it was simple before, I liked it better. But that's just me, I guess many others are thrilled. I'm part cat, I don't like it when my environment is moved around and rearranged.

[@leuphoniemusic]

Thank you for the video. I think I can put together unique and quirky/funny designs if I put my mind to it - I already have some ideas. But what about the other aspects of POD? Of course the next step would be to open a shop/web-page and put them up, but how to truly nail marketing and all that other stuff? There's so many contradicting views on this whole POD thing that it's hard to truly understand if it's worth it, but I would really like to know and gain some insight.

[@Kittldesign]

Hey there, perhaps this video will help you gain some insights into what you want to do: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nWbFq3Vnd5uYjdUsi=6pZK1dXf8PJHck5R

[@bhautube]

Looking forward to video related to POD saturation. Thanks

[@Kittldesign]

We'll work on it.

[@neilpearce]

It's bloody hard work! You have to be good at market research, have an eye for a possible trend, have a good eye for design and some knowledge of graphic design principles, and then work, work work and more work.

[@Kittldesign]

All good points.

[@leuphoniemusic]

Is it naive to think that when your designs are truly good, they will sell? You make it sound like it's near-impossible to do. Then again, I wouldn't know, because I'm at the very early stages and just trying to figure out if it could work.

[@AChapin]

Great video! Would love to hear more ideas about how to do Instagram post etc for POD & what do you do to get traction/followers when you have no followers etc? 😂 Just a thought for a future video maybe. 😊 Thanks again!

[@Kittldesign]

Great! Thanks for the suggestion.

[@wilfredguiriba8509]

Thanks Kittl for another awesome video about Print on demand!

[@Kittldesign]

Most welcome!

[@josecreativeschannel]

Quick question awesome Wilson brothers: Can Kittl also be used for a wall mural design? Like for a coffee shop wall interior.

[@Kittldesign]

Sure thing! You will most likely need a projector of some sort to get that sorted out!

[@josecreativeschannel]

@@Kittldesign Thank you for the response! I am thinking of printing the design via a local large format printer service that does vinyl sticker wall murals. It's for a friend of mine who's about to open his coffee shop in his neighborhood.

[@ManuelHicks]

Great video

[@Kittldesign]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@MJavedVA]

It takes a lot of time and effort to get your designs seen without any paid ads. And, it’s really disturbing and demotivating when your shop is banned due to a design you uploaded a year or so ago even you have sold that design many times. I mean, sometimes, its experience that make things worthy and when your experience is not good, things surely go sideways.

[@Kittldesign]

We definitely recommend checking out some of our collaborators videos on POD that truly want to figure out the best first steps to ensure things like banning don't happen. It is absolutely frustrating, and sometimes unavoidable, but there are also alternatives to places like Etsy that might provide a better experience.

[@jonathanwilliams3846]

i've been in POD since 2010. Great business if you like earning 10 cents per hour.

[@Kittldesign]

There is certainly a lot of work needed to make it thrive the way the others perceive it.

[@rowenar7075]

Hi! Question? I have some designs that I made using ADOBE Illustration. Can I incorporate my design using Kittl?

[@Kittldesign]

You can incpororate Kittl into whatever workflow works best for you! However please note that if you ware uploading elements or assets from another program that you made to Kittl and publishing it as a live template, then everyone has the same creative license to use those uploaded elements. So if you do not wish for them to be used by the community, it is best not to publish designs with uploaded assets.

[@rowenar7075]

@@KittldesignThat's great! okay thank you very much=)

[@SamanthaFl]

It's only saturated when others copy each other.

[@Kittldesign]

Definitely important to stand out amongst the rest!

[@terryswenning9510]

If a person use AI for suggested design or my own, is there a way to verify image, font, etc to prevent copyright problems?

[@Kittldesign]

In terms of print on demand, this is going to largely depend on where you are selling, as in which marketplace or website. If it's a personal shop, like Shopify, then there should generally not be an issue if it was created by you. However there are a couple of sites you can check out to upload an image and see if there's something already close to it.

[@terryswenning9510]

@@Kittldesign Thank you for your feedback. can you offer names of the site to do this? Would appreciate.
