Good morning Sarah, thanks for another roll of knowledge. You are the only one who does this. I'm just starting out with side business and am blocked sharply by the use of AI. If I generate an image can I make money from it with impunity? How do you approach this? A big thank you for what you are doing for us.

[@WholesaleTed]

@Robert-fl6ei thank you! Ai Image Generators are legal, and so using them isn't illegal, I am not a lawyer, but I don't see how you would face any legal trouble unless you were using them for illegal purposes (such as defamation)

[@SpeedbirdHeavy]

​@Robert-fl6ei if you sell them on Etsy, e.g. if you put them out as wall art, you have to state that you made them with AI. As per Etsy policy.

@@TheGameCapsule added a lot of products , making adds on tiktok,youtube and instagram. I made people want the products with promo codes. I made big promocode giveaways so i got more people. I think I earned that much because one guy (i think he owns a store) bought a lot of products.

Hey Sarah! Really enjoy your content. For this video in particular, though I'm having a hard time finding information on how exactly to start the first business idea with Pick One KZbin shorts - could you please do a follow up video on this where you explain how to get started and the steps involved? Thank you ☺

[@JakeReehl]

The first idea is already way simpler the quiz niche you also kindly shared a few months ago (and which I gave up on due to TikTok suppressing views for a while). However, I might hop on and try again, as pick one videos sound much more fun and interesting to make. Less time wasted! Thanks for the wonderful content as always!

[@michaelreisinger4052]

Thanks for all the great info on Print-on-Demand! I’m curious, though: what about the legal side of things, like registering a business, taxes and bookkeeping once you start making money? I’ve noticed a lot of videos cover how to set up a business, but not so much on the administrative side. I’d love to hear your perspective on that! PS: Great video and I really appreciate what you are doing and learned a lot from you

[@WholesaleTed]

Those are great questions. Honestly, I do not answer specific legal questions because: 1) It changes country-to-country. Registering a business is a different process here in New Zealand to the USA. And within the USA, it is a different process depending on what state. It is a different process in Texas vs. California. Each individual will need to research and google how to open a business in their local jurisdiction, but it is usually not hard and is easier than they expect. 2) I am not a qualified accountant, bookkeeper or lawyer. I therefore cannot give qualified accounting, bookkeeping or legal advice. I do not want to provide advice on a topic that I am not qualified to give. I can provide my own opinion based on what I personally understand, but that is just my opinion, so I usually leave that stuff to people qualified to provide it. For example, if you'd like advice on tax stuff for ecommerce stores - Shopify & TaxJar have great resources and I recommend using them! 🙏

I’ve been made eligible to monetise my fb and my yt and I also have two print on demand platforms. However, the current farm work I am committed to takes me a minimum of 10-12 hours a day so I’ve been very limited in creating time for designing, filming, editing, uploading etc etc. And I’m still very amateur at making the algorithms work well for me. 😅.

Another fantastic & inspiring video from the beautiful Sarah with great ideas for making money. Love 🥰 the video and love ❤ Sarah.

[@silvereaglehere]

Hey Sarah, enjoyed the video as usual. BTW I saw one of your video's several years ago wherein you were showing how much better Printify was than Printful. Now your pushing Printful. What happen???

[@WholesaleTed]

Haha, I am not pushing Printful in this video - I am recommending Fourth Wall. Fourth Wall has a integration with Printful and they don't have an integration with Printify. I think that, as I said in that video you are referencing, both Printful and Printify are great, and I use both, as I said in that video too. If Fourth Wall has an integration with Printify that would be great, but they only have an integration with Printful. Which is fine - but that is no me favoring one over the other. I recommended Fourth Wall because it is, in my opinion, the best way to create a POD store for free if you are broke and can't afford to open an Etsy or Shopify store. If you haven't watched my video on it, I recommend doing so, it might help clear up any confusion!

[@WholesaleTed]

This is the video on Fourth Wall: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z5_aqauIoLuVnbM - as you'll see, this is not a review of Printful vs Printify, where I choose one over the other. It is a review of Fourth Wall, which happens to only use Printful. I like Fourth Wall, and I like Printful, so I think that it is a great platform. As I also discuss in that video, there are pros and cons to Fourth Wall, it is not right for everyone. But I think it is great for people that need to start a store for free and have no money to invest 🙏

[@silvereaglehere]

@@WholesaleTed Thanks Sarah for clearing that up. I guess I need to be more observant.

[@WholesaleTed]

I can't know for certain what specifically they are using, but a lot use Ai Video Generators. Ai Video Generators only generate short video clips right now, but it works well with Pick One videos, because each clip is only shown on-screen for a short amount of time.

WARNING: Microsoft Designer does NOT allow commercial use of images you create on it. (Quote from their terms & conditions: "You agree that your use of Designer is for personal use only and not for use in the course of trade or commerce.") So you cannot legally use the images for things like print on demand. I'm surprised, Sarah, usually you are so careful about this issue.

[@WholesaleTed]

I am careful. Which is why in this video, if you rewatch it, you will see I recommend it for video creation, not for the selling of images directly. Those are two different things. Please rewatch the video again 🙏

These are great, Sarah! I like the print on demand with Fourthwall idea, so does this mean you don't need fulfillment funds to start? Like paying out of your pocket (credit card) before getting paid? I can't seem to find any info on their site talking about that feature, but I like it! By the way, you only filled out half of the links under 'free apps & websites discussed in this video' :)

[@WholesaleTed]

If you opened a store legally in the USA, then you'd now have tax obligations to the USA government. Instead, open your store legally in Canada but use USA suppliers. Your store having a Canadian bank account attached to it instead of a USA bank account won't impact your Etsy performance in my experience 🙏

I am wondering about the trademarks regarding the Linkin Park lyrics? Is this ok?

[@WholesaleTed]

I'm not a lawyer, so I can't give legal advice. But my personal understanding is that as this does not use the actual lyrics to the song, it could not attract any trademark complaints. You cannot copyright small phrases usually, but you can trademark them. However, trademarks are very specific to the exact phrase/images trademarked.

hi, love your videos bab, but for me, there is a problem or 2 with this for me anyway! how is anyone going to get paid if paypal insiste on me proving my ID before i start earning money? i can not prove my id?

But don 't you need an existing business to match the merch to? - or, can you make the merch the business itself?

[@WholesaleTed]

Most merch stores start as a store, with no pre-existing brand to piggy back off of, and get sales from their cool designs they showcase on platforms like TikTok or Instagram or Etsy. It is less common to do it in reverse.

Telling others about business ideas is the only business that works! Why would you need to tell us about these ideas when you could do them yourself and make $14,000 a month?

[@WholesaleTed]

LOL! I literally posted a video that answered this question. "Why would you post videos about online businesses, if you are earning money yourself" - the answer is that it is an easy way to take the money from one successful business, and then use it to start another. Why would I not do that? Why would I not leverage my pre-existing assets to make more money? I like making money, I enjoy starting businesses, this is another business/income source I can create, of course I'm going to create it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oHTUenqudpqGY80 As that video explained, the way I built up multiple income sources was by leveraging pre-existing assets/skills. I started with ecommerce. Then I moved into credit cards, and then KZbin, and then affiliate marketing... it all built on each other. That is like asking Jeff Bezos, "if selling products made you so much money, why did you start a streaming service too to sell content." If you asked him, he would be baffled. He would say, "because I have a pre-existing customer base. Why would I not sell people a new service I know they want - content?"

[@stark0036]

She is a KZbinr who is making money from Adsense by you watching this. She also know only a small percentage of if people will actually go through the pain of starting one of these business to the point of profitability, so she could spill the beans on literally anything and still have very little competition from her audience. She makes money because she is smarter and can apply herself better than most of us

[@TheGameCapsule]

She never tells her audience what her business is which I always found suspicious. If you have followers on social you would turn them into customers but she says she doesn't because of safety? What? SUS

The only problem I have with such business, is that they are worthless.

SARAH I BEG YOU please stop promoting pexels videos for us to use in youtube videos ! You tube gave me 6 violations because pexels content contributors complained ! My youtube channel is done for !

[@WholesaleTed]

Pexels explicitly allows KZbinrs to use their videos as part of their own videos. The only rule is you cannot upload them or repost them individually as-is without any modification. You are welcome to use them as faceless b-roll video clips. This will not cause a content creator to be given a copyright strike, something else must have occurred to receive 6 strikes. This is outlined in their license, but they also created a FAQ page specifically to address this question and clarify that you are allowed to use Pexels videos in your own videos: help.pexels.com/hc/en-us/articles/360042827333-Can-I-upload-Pexels-images-and-videos-to-KZbin "Yes, you can upload Pexels images and videos to KZbin as long as they are used to create your own video. What is not permitted is simply uploading Pexels content to your own channel with no modification." You can receive a violation if you upload a video and do not modify it. But, if you turn it into a series of faceless b-roll clips & add your own voice over, script and captions to them to create a montage - this is well within the license rules of Pexels and is explicitly allowed 🙏

[@Dorianpasian]

[@WholesaleTed]

My thumbnails often preview a part of the video I'll cover, like a teaser. That number is teasing Online Business #4 - a business I do that yes, earns me over $14k USD per month. It is a business I absolutely believe in, because well before my channel blew up and I was just a small creator, I was earning even MORE than that per month, because of my focus on doing it back then. Now it's just a side part to what I do. I know multiple people that started with 0 subscribers who do this, and now have 6-figure incomes. It is, IMHO, one of the most underrated online businesses that there is. I would absolutely 100% include it in a list like this again. I absolutely understand if you do not like the teaser thumbnails. But they get far more clicks than ones that don't. Therefore - I have to go with what most people like - but I appreciate your perspective and I think it is absolutely fair 🙏
