Start a print-on-demand store

Start a print-on-demand store: You sell designs on shirts and mugs with no stock: the printer only makes what is sold. 1) Choose a narrow audience with a strong identity, like a sport, a job or a hobby. 2) Make 10 designs that this group would wear with pride, and that do not copy anyone's brand or artwork. 3) Connect a print-on-demand service to a simple store, and order one sample.

The steps

  1. Choose a narrow audience with a strong identity, like a sport, a job or a hobby.
  2. Make 10 designs that this group would wear with pride, and that do not copy anyone's brand or artwork.
  3. Connect a print-on-demand service to a simple store, and order one sample.
  4. Check the sample and the shipping times yourself.
  5. Post your designs where that audience already spends time.
  6. Make more of what sells, and drop the rest.
