What is Print on Demand?

Print on demand. The business model where you create designs, upload them to websites that have a marketplace, who will print and sell them for you on various products like t-shirts, sweaters, posters, stickers, face masks, and many, many more.

I could write endless stories and procedures about this, about how every single website works, how to create the designs, how to promote them, etc.. but for this article I will keep it broad and simple.

The article is based on my own experience.
I am going to tell you how I’ve been making $500 extra per month with Print on Demand (POD). And that number is only going up.

I have been creating designs and uploading them to existing Print on Demand websites since 2017.

Since then I have sold nearly 1500 designs and earned more than $15000 in commission/royalties. The start was slow, very slow. I didn’t earn anything in the first year, but I didn’t give up and kept on creating & uploading designs.

At the time of writing this article, I’m selling for around $550 a month. That’s a nice little extra, wouldn’t you agree?

How does it work?
