Have you ever wanted to sell „real products“ but without the hassle of storing, packaging and shipping them?  Then this class is for you! I’ll show you how to get the best of both worlds. You can sell physical products from the comfort of your home without storing them and without handling creating the products, packaging, shipping and refunding if necessary.

You take care of what you love most - designing unique products your customers will love!

You’ll learn

… what Print on Demand (POD) is and why it’s a great Business Model for Artists

… that you do not even need to draw yourself to have a great POD business

… how to set up your POD Shop and connect it to your own online store

… how to set up your products correctly and make them sync between your stores

… how to create Mock-ups to have unique product images in your store

… how to set up your advertising in a way that it lasts forever

Once you’ve learned how to set up your POD business you can take care of designing new products and adding them to your store.

Your fulfillment provider aka the POD site does the rest. You upload your products, sync them to  your store and your partner takes care of fulfilling your orders. Therefore your „real product business“ feels more like a digital product business because you don’t need to worry about anything but designing and adding the items to your store.

That’s not all what you learn in this class. You’ll also learn how you can stand out from the crowd and create your own preview images. Once done we’ll use these images to create Pins for Pinterests and Posts for Instagram - again in a unique way so you’ll also stand out on these platforms and provide your customers a great experience by providing a consistent, branded profile.

This class if for you if

… you love designing

… if you want a business hands of where you create on what you really love (being creative!)

… if you want to sell „real products“ but without the hassle of fulfilling the orders (aka producing, packaging, shipping and handling refunds)

… if you wanna do your advertising in a way that lasts forever and it doesn’t matter if you are on  a break for a few weeks

Here are the materials you need for this class but you always have the option to use something else. For example: You decide if you draw digitally on your iPad or if you use pen and pager. You can also decide if you purchase your digital graphics and maybe create mock-ups yourself.
