Create a Printful account
The first step is easy. If you don’t have a Printful account, you need to create one. Just go to our page, click Sign up and fill in your info. It’s quick and completely free.
Find your business niche
Before you move on to store and product setup, you should have a good understanding of your business idea and your target audience. You know the old saying: “When you’re selling to everyone, you’re selling to no one.”
Create a product template
So you have your Printful account and you know your target audience. The next step is to create your first product template. A product template is a Printful product with your added design-like a ready-made item you can then quickly add to your store and sell.
Connect your store to Printful
If you don’t have an online store, you’ll need to create one to start selling with us. You can set up your store on an ecommerce platform or an online marketplace. With your Printful account, you have a lot of options to choose from.
Add products to store
The next thing on your list is adding a product to your store. Choose the Product templates tab again. Pick the product template you want to add to your store and click Add to store. Here you can choose the colors and sizes of the product, add mockups, write your product description, and set your price.
Set up pricing
Figuring out your product pricing is a real balancing act between two prices-the Printful price and your retail price. The Printful price is what you pay us for product fulfillment. The retail price is what your customers will see and pay you. Now you have to figure out how much profit you’ll want to earn per product and add that on top of the product fulfillment price.
Add payment methods
Another thing you need to set up is payment methods. Here’s what happens when a customer buys from your store:
Your customer pays you the retail price on your store’s platform
You pay Printful for fulfillment, shipping, and relevant taxes
The payments are not linked with each other. When your customer places an order in your shop, Printful does not have access to the money your customer pays for the order.
Place a sample order
This step isn’t mandatory, but I’d recommend that you order a sample of your products. Designs you see on the screen may look a little different when printed on fabric, so ordering samples will help you make sure that you’re satisfied with the final result.
Start marketing
Alright. You’ve got your store, your products, and your payment methods all set up. Now you can start selling. This is where your marketing skills come in.
