Thank you Greg for such a great video you've shared. The best is yet to come this 2024.
Thank you !
I want to make a video. Do you make a video?
Hello Greg,
what's the startup cost for these two business separately?
Hey Greg, is there a trust score for each storefront I make on Teespring?
Hey Greg, Can we do this from Pakistan?
I tried POD 2020 after listining to you & I made money not much but it does work
Do you have to have a YouTube to do affiliate marketing?
So to recap, your course is to teach individuals how to be profitable YT creators?
Good evening Greg and Happy Bew Year. I really enjoy your video and the way you speak politely to everyone. I am looking for a good passive business and understand anything worth doing is worth doing properly and diligently. I'd like to know if there are testimonials tonyour online courses as I i want to do this properly and of course we have all been taken advantage of in the past.
I am not in anyway saying you are not being honest, just want to make an informed decision and i greatly appreciate your time and hope to see a response. Thank you very much and respectfully salute your success.
I so want to believe you. I have Tried so many businesses over the past few years. 99% have been scams. It seems like the way to make money is to sell people a dream and them get them to purchase a course.
Hi Greg, I am based in Papua New Guinea in the Pacific, will this work for me?..can I still participate?
Honestly speaking i have invested so many momey on online earnings but nothing worked so far. 🙁
Glad to see the video performing so well ♥️
I think I'm gonna give the affiliate marketing a shot. I am a creator the specializes in digital art and graphic design. While I was watching this, I quickly thought about things that I use on a daily basis that I know a ton about in regards to my creating. I use Adobe products for design. I use Clip Studio Paint for design, and I use an XP Pen Artist 24 Pro graphics tablet to work on. All three companies have affiliate programs.
I feel like it would be easier and genuine to market for products and services that I use.
I tried print-on-demand. That didn't work out for me. Over three years, Red Bubble, TeeSpring, and TeePublic just didn't happen for me. It's no biggie. Everything is not for everybody.
Intrasted sir please translate Hindi this video
Sir please this video translation in Hindi
Namaste sir kya aapki video Hindi me aa sakti hai
I really like your idea but I'm from Pakistan so . Can i also do this online work or not . Tell me asap
Wow you awsome
POD is highly competitive it's very hard to get order organically on any POD sites and if you run ads then forget about the profit
Man, I've been having major success with affiliate marketing from tiktok, amazon my life definitely have been easier and am willing to share the knowledge
❤❤❤
Hi Greg thank you for your instruction! If it is possible to wear out a video, I wore yours out playing over and over. PLEASE HELP. I followed each step to the point of uploading in TEEPUBLIC. But on my designs the background is dark and image colored? I selected the transparent checker box before downloading the design to my computer. What am I doing wrong? Thanks
Thanks for this! Great content.
I have scanned 20k online job by those people called shein
Print on demand is HIGHLY competitive. Learn what sells and improve upon that. Good luck.
Don’t you need to kinda have a popular-ish YouTube channel to start affiliate marketing?
Thank you, Greg. Happy 2024! I have been looking for a business I can start. This was very inspiring!
Some honest feedback for anyone starting POD. I started in Nov following Greg's tutorial. I've uploaded nearly 300 designs to RB and I've made 2 sales so far. I tried Teepublic but was told my account would not be considered for the artisan tier which meant my designs would not show on the marketplace so I shut it down and will start a new one. I didn't get accepted to MBA which seems to be the only place people are making sales. I'm considering Etsy now but really didn't want to as there is tons of bad reviews from sellers getting accounts shut down and the same for RB too. The accounts that do well on POD seem to be artist accounts with specific styles and one niche – stores that people can follow and be fans of. I also think your design skills need to be really good to make work that stands out and that takes a lot of time and paying for good design software. I'm down $40 bucks so far after paying for Placeit and Merchinformer and not getting the sales I'd hoped for. Placeit btw is not great for designing, Kittl is better. No shade on Greg, I still love this channel but just putting my experience out there in case anyone has done better and can offer some helpful advice.
Hi Greg, Happy New Year! I have begun creating designs and uploading. I've watched your info on Amazon Merch., before I apply do you have any additional tips/secrets to getting accepted? I'm currently on Redbubble, TeePublic, Zazzle, and Teespring, though TeeSpring has me perplexed, doesn't seem to present the same as the other three. Anyway, Thank you in advance. Cheers
PS, do you offer any critique on designs/offerings?
Hi Greg, how to get approve Merch by Amazon in 2024 ?
Very nice ❤❤❤
the name Greg Gottfried is credible enough to me in the youtube space,,,long time sub of yours. great take Greg!! cheers and happy new year from the City of Knowledge @ the Panama Canal
How many do you make a day and how much time do you use per day?
Hey Greg,
Could you remove a new video about how to market your t-shirt design through social media?
How to start from scratch, build an audience, create content or post T-shirt images, and How they can access it through the link in the bio on Instagram, TikTok or any other marketing platform.
Thanks.
hey greg, for your own youtube channels do you create them faceless or you hire someone or you do them yourself? Also how much of the progress can you outsource? How much are you outsourcing ? I am considering buying your course and starting this business, but I want to know if it will work if I do it faceless, and how it will work?
A nice video for anyone wanting a strong start to build an online business in 2024, thanks as always Greg!
I am really struggling on how to put my designs on both sides of a mug on teepublic. I saw you doing it once and I couldn't figure out which video it was. Can you please help a sister out? TIA.
Awesome video Greg. This course will be my very first big investment. I have never bought courses from other people on YouTube because I know they are likely snake oil salesmen haha. But I can tell you’re a genuine person and I know for a fact that affiliate marketing is a legit way to make money.
Hi Greg, so I am starting off with the print on demand and I had sent teepublic an email basically just asking them if my store was set up correctly. The last thing they said in their email which I thought was a pretty horrible thing to say to a new person on their platform was " unfortunately, your storefront and Designs will not show up in search, or on the new or browse areas of the site." And then, "at this time we do not have any further information to provide, nor will your storefront be considered for re-review. Although we will not answer any other questions related to the search function, please do let us know if you have any other questions unrelated to search and we will be happy to help" first of all, I don't even remember asking them anything about the search function I was literally just seeing if my store was set up correctly. Should I not waste my time putting any more items in my store with teepublic?
Anyone watching and considering Greg’s course I HIGHLY recommend it! I have purchased it and am a student. It will give detailed you detailed step by step instructions on how you can be successful. I never thought I would start or even try this business but Greg has made it so easy to understand. He will also answer any questions after your enrolled so you don’t feel like your alone in this new venture.
