How to Start Your Own POD and T-Shirt Business

 

 Although the Print on Demand model started with books it has now spread to many different types of products.


The POD business system is simply to put your own artwork designs onto any one of hundreds of available products from dozens of suppliers. 
 
The Print on Demand method is ideal for people that don't want to or can't afford to risk any money in starting a business. Many people want their own business, but are scared to take the risk. This is a business model that minimizes risk. If you don't have any money or don't want to risk borrowing money from a bank, then the POD business is one that you should seriously consider.
 
In traditional business models you generally must invest in stock if you are going to sell any sort of product, but in the Print on Demand business you do not need a speculative investment in stock. There is not any danger of investing in the wrong stock as you only pay for items that you have already sold. Many businesses make the mistake of buying badly and their profit sits in a box in the corner. Or they have to sell at a loss.
 
So, there are no premises to pay for, no staff to pay and no stock to pay for before any item sale.  The main expense is your time and possibly money spent on advertising to bring your customers to your sales platform.
 
Additionally, you will need some commercial use POD designs. You can either do this yourself if you feel you have artistic abilities, or you can find somebody to do your designs for you. There are plenty of places where you can find graphic artists, but these tend to be expensive. There are also plenty of places to find ideas for designs which are not too expensive. And finally, you will need at least one sales platform so that your great designs can be seen and purchased by the public.

 

Types of Products for Print on Demand


There are so many different types of products that can be used in this business model that it would be silly to list them all here. I will just list ten that I know can work well.
 
POD T-Shirt Designs  
The biggest selling Print on Demand product is the T Shirt. These can be simple slogans or a bit more elaborate designs.
 
Sweatshirts / Hoodies 
These provide a good opportunity particularly around Xmas to make a good profit margin as they are quite high value in comparison to the other items.
 
POD Coffee Mugs 
There are variations on size and color on this popular product.
 
Necklaces
This product is good for sentimental type messages and the more serious type of message.  It can earn you a nice profit margin. Super for Valentine’s Day or Anniversaries.
 
Bracelets
Not quite as popular as necklaces but still a good market with the right message.
 
Pillowcases / Cushion Covers 
These have good possibilities if you get the design right and catch people’s imagination.
 
Tote Bags
A very popular item with the ladies.  Very fashionable now. 
 
Phone Cases 
These make a great gift.  It is an item that most people could use. 
 
Caps 
Headwear is something that can be good particularly with sportsmen but can be adopted for special occasions as in this sample. 
 
Wall Art
Prints for the wall need to be more artistic than for clothing in general. It is a good market for the more talented artists and designers.
 
Socks
All over print socks can be very effective.  The all over print technique is used on other garments like T shirts and tights too.  Some suppliers have better software than others for easy creation of from design.  Research the suppliers to see which suits you best.
 
I hope the above selection has given you some ideas on niches, designs and products. Putting your own combination together can be fun.  This is just a small selection of Print on Demand ideas. There are plenty more
POD products to choose from.
