Hi may I ask for some advice. I think I would like to try this in order to try and afford my daughter's equipment. I feel less shame in providing something for a small margin than a go fund me thing. Do you think a £2 margin would work or would it succumb to negative margin somehow. I can't figure another way to cover additional equipment needs without trading away my weekend I spend with her. Otherwise what's the point in a child right? Be a ruthless as you need. Thanks in advance David FB baby aria stroke survivor

Great video!!! I am 16 years old and have been thinking about creating a small clothing brand. The main problem for me is finding the manufacture, everything else is almost good. Is there a way to contact the manufacturer? I have watched many videos about how to find the right manufacturer and every single one of them said to actually FaceTime them to see their factories and if they are valid. Also, another important thing is if they do split payments. From the videos, they said it is better to pay the manufacturer into 3 different categories. Pay them once when they print, second when they pack, and third when they ship it out. I just want to make sure I find a trustful manufacturer and not get scammed or anything like that. But thanks for the great video!

I can place a small logo at the top back design areas of hoodies and sweatshirts but if I'm using both front and back to place my designs, it'll be impossible to place logo anywhere. I really wanted to place logo in the inner neck part of hoodies and sweatshirts like on tshirts 🙂

When shipping internationally (aka outside USA), how you setup a global pricing point?... when you start switching countries and currencies in pricing screen, production and shipping cost varies a lot.
@KerryEgeler 8 ай бұрын
You can setup specific shipping cost per country, but generally your pricing will need to stay the same. I just make sure I’m covering the higher shipping. If you’re using Gelato, shipping is similar no matter where you are selling, due to them having print partners locally around the world.

How about the orders, are they automatically paid to the gelato when the order is placed. I made an online store on shopify, downloaded the print on demand application (connected gelato with shopify), when I tested the first product, gelato only sends an order without this order being processed.
@KerryEgeler Ай бұрын
Your business pays the Print On Demand Company, and you get paid from Shopify typically 48 hours after the order is placed. The way around fronting the money for the order would be to set your order fulfillment to manual. This would allow you to wait until Shopify pays your business, and then you would manually begin processing through Gelato.
