@WholesaleTed How I sell my mug design on canva & upwork plz make video about this

[@hbracero14]

Thank you, Sarah, for this video. Is it possible to create this using only Canva? It is a bit overwhelming for a beginner like myself to learn all the tools you use in this video and also to cut down on cost because most of the tools you use cost money.

[@tiagoalexandre4691]

Thank you Sarah. Super useful! Quick question: how does one avoid similarities with other designs already on sale? I know it is a "long shot" for AI to recreate to exact designs, but still, is there an easier method than just browsing Etsy to check the designs? Thank you and keep posting that great content.

Can we sell POD on Amazon seller center?

[@maddogart5133]

Sara. Can u pls p.m. me I have a general but direct question for you Pls.

[@TheJanet4321]

You don't get the amount of money from Amazon that you're saying. You just get the profit beyond the cost of the t-shirt. For example, one month, I had a design that sold great - lucked out - sold about 70. I made about a $4/shirt profit above the cost of the shirt. You should give people that information, not MISINFORMATION. They will NOT get the entire $17.99 for a shirt that sells for that amount.

[@CindyWalsh-k2o]

I would like to think people understand that part.

[@JazzMaster01]

It should be obvious that you only make the profit lmao

[@archvaldor]

@@JazzMaster01 It may be obvious to you or I but if you are making a guide you need to say that. The assumption should be that your audience know nothing about it or they wouldn't be watching a guide.

[@queen_of_swords888]

It's logical, amazon is your partner. So you get a profit but not the full prize. But I agree they should say that honestly in video's. I can understand if ppl thought they would receive full amount it is a big dissappointment.

[@andyh6628]

These kinf of videos can be inspirational but also at the same time depressing if you are trying these ideas, trying to set up your own shops on Etsy, Amazon or wherever and you getting nowhere. It's so depressing to see it made out to be so easy and all these success stories of people making thousands and thousands each month and you are struggling to get 1 sale and feel like you are missing out and not able to be a part of that.

[@alicewondering4295]

The biggest problem is, she never did these, no real experience, just know the basic steps to create. (She leaves out so much). She is a real e-commerce guru

Actually, I do use this in my own stores and products and I even made another video on the cross idea formula I have been using here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/g2q9gJynrdqAqcksi=l-193i34YpiIWQo3 I do apply this also to ai art and I particularly like to use AI art if no clip art can fill the gap that I need, and I use chatgpt extensively for slogans like this, but still, people will come up with stuff about me that isn't true and I have come to peace with the fact that I can't stop it 🙏

[@richardlturnerjr7026]

Why not offer a Pay What You Want Workshop to create one of these projects for those who are curious about or currently struggling with how to use the A.I. tools in the way you demonstrated in this video? Collect testimonials from that and continue to serve and build. :) By the way, in my opinion, if anyone watching this isn't actively learning how to make A.I. work for them then they are missing out on claiming their share of a massive opportunity!

[@killmesoicanrespawn3775]

[@kimberlyreid2291]

Hey Sarah I really like everything you share with us on these videos. You are a true pro at it unlike myself who doesn't even have the confidence to get this going part of the reason is because the market right now is saturated with AI content and that is discouraging!

[@WholesaleTed]

Thank you. Something I think that is good to keep in mind though is the market is not "saturated" with ai products, because it can't be. It's impossible for it to be. Ai is simply a tool to help you create products. Saturation is a niche problem, it isn't an AI problem. Some niches are more "saturated" than others. Even then, all that means is that those niches are more competitive than others, not that they are saturated in the sense they can't be broken into. It just means the standard for product creation in those niches is higher. It just means in those niches customers have more choices so only sell in them if you think the products you create, with or without ai, are better than what exists. If you don't think you can create products better than the competition in competitive niches, pick less competitive niches. 🙏

[@MasalaMan]

You could've done background removal with your Photoshop clone app. It's called the magic wand tool and you just save it as a PNG. You could've also created that distress texture in Photoshop if you knew how to make brushes.

Remember that when you are a free user of the image generators that the company "owns" the image and is likely to make it public.

[@PronounsAreHerMajesty]

I want to say Midjourney gives you the option of creating images strictly for your own use even for selling as a digital image, which is the most restrictive license for most content creators. So, just make sure you are ensuring that the AI package you are using provides that license. It’s usually for a pretty penny, but worth it if you’re an active content creator.

Do u think POD is over saturated/played out right now for me to start?🤷🏾‍♂️

[@Azeltix]

Why don’t you remove the background directly in Canva as you use it then ? It’s faster than using 2 apps.

[@WholesaleTed]

Because I wanted to remove my background before upscaling, and its actually faster to remove the background in Adobe, rather than with Canva, as they didn't have an upscaler while filming this video. It's quicker to use Canva if you're already designing a picture in it, but since I needed to do more to the image, it was faster to use Adobe. Canva's background remover is actually fairly slow, my guess is it's just a server issue.

What if my credit card is maxed out for the upfront payment to printing company and couldn't handle a bunch of order from Etsy?

[@DanSpel]

Then either you pre-pay your credit card to have a positive balance anticipating your sales volume or request additional credit from your lending institution or bank. The printing company will not fulfill your order if not paid upfront. Etsy usually also holds customer payments for a certain time period before remitting them back to you so you really need a start up fund to operate your business until the transactions are running smoothly.

It’s great, but posting designs is not enough, it’s only a few more drops in an ocean of tees, no matter how beautiful they are, the most difficult thing is how to find buyers! With The AI, everyone can create tees, but what do we have to do to sell, then? Do you have tips about how to make money-magnet ads, how to handle social media?

[@WholesaleTed]

No, because "money magnet ads" are honestly, in my opinion, overrated as a traffic strategy for new stores. Instead, understanding the new product boost algorithm is the key to success on Etsy and other similar platforms which also now have it. And I have a dedicated video to they topic 🙏 kzbin.info/www/bejne/rGTNdmWng9lmf5osi=LrfRt6OxyHBAvDgo

[@WholesaleTed]

And also... who told you designs weren't enough? Designs ARE enough. They are the #1 best traffic strategy IMO for platforms with viral algorithm. Great designs sell because thanks to the new product boost, all products get given a chance. And because customers will always naturally gravitate towards great designs, coming up with unique designs is the best way IMO to stand out as a new seller.

Yes, this works. Yes, the same effect is applied to the transparent background as you have visually seen, but because the background is transparent already, it is irrelevant - there is no color to remove.
