I love this idea I actually found a blanket in different stores same blanket but one store had more sells than the other one so I started doing some research and it was the mockup🙂🙂. It was a girl holding the blanket and I found the seller of this mockup I will start selling and I think the mockup does a lot of the job when it looks appealing

[@c.u.online]

Yes! That's why I always tell people to invest on great mockups. They make such a huge difference.

Hi, how big should the design be? (Not the blanket but the design that will be a pattern) thanks!

[@shackworks]

Very informative video. I think one needs some experience of using these tools to be able to do this and also probably a small team of people if you start getting a lot of sales. I was under the impression that the image and the name goes directly to the supplier and they would do the personalisation for an additional fee of course.

hi . i watch your videos all the time. you explains everything in a very simple and professional way! may be you can help me I'm a bit discouraged, I was blocked for no apparent reason and now I've been informed that it's forever and without any explanation.

Hey Christina, I love you channel. You're definitely one of the best POD channels on KZbin always dropping great tips with your videos. I wanted to ask, how do you save the pattern you created in Printify to use on your mock ups? Do you just download or screenshot the image they provide? Thanks in advance!

[@c.u.online]

Unfortunately, you cant download the actual pattern. The front preview works for the canva mockup, but its best if you just recreate the design or pattern on canva.

[@mariammohamed875]

Just recreate to avoid legal issues.

[@jarrodfrancis325]

[@hellalmohamadi9493]

Love the video! just a quick question, When you are uploading the file on printify, is it fine if the file area size is smaller then the print area size 7825 x 9325 px for the blanket. I assume as long as it shows high resolution dpi in green then the print quality won't be blurry or anything? Thanks!

[@c.u.online]

yea as long as its showing in green then its fine :) Id only worry if it was red and said low res

Hey, I just watched your video and I must say that it was really informative and well-made. I was wondering if I could help you edit your videos. turning into highly engaging.

[@dianeadinehzadeh5443]

COOl video. thank you. Question: my store is 2 months old mainly selling tshirts and sweatshirts with a few mugs. and I have sold one sale I have low traffic. Should I stay the course and focus on my niche designs to allow Etsy to understand the type of store i am or start selling desk mats and blankets and maybe telephone cases to add to my shop categories? BTW a future discussion on shop categories and how etsy ranks you is an over looked and confusing subject.

[@c.u.online]

Look at your stats and see how your listings are doing. If you have low traffic, you might need to update your SEO, or mockups. Follow through the ones that are getting clicks or views. I'd also recommend asking someone you know to buy from your shop and leave a review, to add credibility. It will be a long journey of testing and research so I'd suggest focusing on your niches first. Once you have selling designs and niches, you can then try adding other related products to your shop.

[@rachellewis3699]

Hi I cant seem to make a canva document bigger than 34 inches, it won't let me, how would I get around this for the larger blankets say 70 x 80 for example, 😊 thanks so much, your videos are just truly amazing! Xxx

[@c.u.online]

I'd use photopea to adjust the image size. Open the image on photopea click the image tab> image size> adjust measurements

[@Boogienight69]

[@jowaller69]

I did this for my wife for Christmas. I made her one that has her KZbin channel name on it. And because no one literally has my name and it’s spelling I now have a blanket that is uniquely my own! Jowancka that’s me

Blankets are not summer products but lots of people still buy blankets as gifts. I'd also try beach towels, which would be perfect for summer.

[@nkbmusic124]

My mockups do no look like realistic yours where your designs is apart of the mockup. It is either floating in front of the picture or when hit Layers and I send it to the back, it's behind the picture and you cant see it at all. What am I doing wrong?. 10:50

[@c.u.online]

The problem might be the mockup file itself. There should be a transparent space on the mockup so you can see the design when it is sent to the back.

[@tm-dietly-ck4qp]

Great video, really informative! 😊 Quick question though - I'm still getting the hang of Printify, and I was wondering if it's okay to upload a file with a smaller area size than the print area size? The blanket I'm working on has a print area of 7825 x 9325 px. If my file area is slightly smaller, will it affect the print quality as long as the resolution is in the green and showing high dpi? Just want to ensure everything turns out crisp and clear. Thanks a bunch! 🙌🎨

[@c.u.online]

It should be okay if it still shows high resolution. :)

[@pat4005]

If your file size AREA is smaller than the print area size on the blanket, then whatever area of the blanket that is not covered by the file size area, will show the plain blanket because there will be no printing on it. 😱

[@making-mindful-moments]

Thank you for this, so helpful. Is there a way to personalization because Printify automatically starts production and shipping once an order is placed?

[@c.u.online]

Keep the skus blank on your etsy listing so that the order goes to printify's other orders tab. You can then import the custom product for the order. My personalized order video tutorial might help. :)

[@Trent-Woodhouse]

Thank you! Once we get the order is it hard to go in and edit with their name etc?

[@c.u.online]

Not at all! As long as you have the design file ready, all you need to do then is to add it on the product and import the order :)

[@blainemitchell]

[@kalioped-qe9gw]

Hi I started an Etsy store yesterday when you sell a blanket what are steps mock and variants how much profit do you make on this do you pay shipping or customer on print on demand

[@pat4005]

If you watch the video, you will see that she runs the blanket listing costs through a Etsy profit estimator, and after all costs the Seller incurs (including shipping if the seller gives free shipping), the Estimator shows the potential profit both as dollars, and as percentage of the total sales price.

[@rjkrjk8344]

Is this stuff sold as drop shipping or they carry actual merchandise. Just wondering 😊

[@debbierichins6722]

I would like to know if they are selling worldwide? Or are they just selling to USA or a combination? That would be nice to know.

[@c.u.online]

If you're using a canva mockup with the transparent product, you have to send the design file to the back of the mockup to that it shows up on the transparent space.

[@danielerogazzo4540]

@@c.u.online Thanks Christina. My difficulty is looking for the mockup with the transparent blanket on Canva. How can I look for it on Canva? In addition, at minute 9,39 of the video you see the Canva template with the 4 blankets attached to the hook. How can I search on Canva? In Mockup app I didn’t find them. I entered several keywords but without success. Thanks for your patience ❤

[@c.u.online]

So those are actually canva mockup files that are being sold on Etsy. You have to purchase the file from an etsy shop, upload it on canva and then you can make your own mockup, with your designs.

Do people get complaints that the mock-up image didn’t look like the real blanket that you’re selling?

[@c.u.online]

try to make your mockup match as much as possible! use the same HTML color code as the blanket, maybe take a screenshot of your listing and bring it into canva to copy the spacing and for all your orders use the same spacing as the last

The calculations miss the mandatory 12% offsite ads fee, easy to do though. It feels like there are 425 fees before you get your cut. 😂

[@c.u.online]

Maybe 1% of my sales come from offsite ads. So its 6.5% mandatory fees, drive your own traffic and you only pay 2.5% fees

[@c.u.online]

and you can turn off offsite ads when youre just starting out, but id rather get a sale for free and lose some profit than no sales at all when youre just getting started

This is why capitalism doesn’t breed innovation. You see the same type of listings over and over with very minimal changes. I respect it, genuinely, like make that money however you need to. I wish I could do this successfully. It just really perfectly illustrates the problem with money equaling life.

[@pat4005]

You are very confused. Capitalism has nothing to do with a person or company's personal CHOICE of what products to create and sell. That is their own choice to foolishly copy a product verbatim. If they choose to be lazy, and just copy some other person's or company's designs with minimal changes, then they will discover that their sales will suffer, (if they make any at all), and their copycat shop and/or products will not be able to compete with an already established and popular shop selling those original products. In fact, Capitalism encourages and exemplifies innovation! 😊 That is because the free market itself will let a seller know right away that they must be creative, resourceful, and innovative, as copied product designs only have a very short life-span until the "next thing" comes along. Blankets have always been around, and so has just about everything else. It is up to the seller to come up with fresh designs or 🎉marketing to drive potential buyers to their shop. Also, what makes no sense is your comment about "the problem with money equaling life". What does that have to do with Capitalism, if anything? Many other non-Capitalist societies use money! Money is the simplest way to trade between products, services, etc., and to save or set-aside savings in a portable form, for another day. If not for "Money", then we are stuck trying to barter, and haggling each day over the value of exchange between labor, products and services! Even ancient societies and cultures, thousands of year old, used "money" as currency for trade. Whether it be precious metal coins, beads, etc., there was some form of agreed-upon currency used to enable making exchanges between people, simplified, easy and portable. If you are stuck bartering, how would you make change for a person who had a goat with them at the market, but wanted to buy a loaf of bread? You can only offer them what you have. Maybe you have a few chickens and eggs from a previous barter that day, but that is not what the person wants as change for their goat anyway. How would you pay people for services that are not products? Money is part of life. It is interwoven with daily living but only harmful to people that focus their world around it. But even then, it is their choice, and nobody's business to be the world's thought police.
