I’ve used 50+ different online money making methods and most of them are a pain in the ass.
But there are some amazing and easy to use methods, like making money by selling shirts on Teespring. I will explain it in a few easy steps so everyone can understand it.
How did I start Making Money using Teespring?
I was always into dropshipping and reselling things. A few months ago I started selling some printed t-shirts on eBay, and I sold only 3 Shirts during 60 days of selling on eBay, and my profit was almost $0 after eBay and Paypal took their fees. I had to print and ship all my shirts, so I even lost some money on my eBay sales.
This was not profitable, and I always hated those sites where you basically have to pay to sell things, they take 10-20% fee of your price, so I contacted few people who work with t-shirts and a friend of mine, from Paris told me about Teespring (visit Teespring homepage).
I visited their site and I realized that this website is one of the best ways to make money online.
This website is a money generator that basically pays you to sell T-shirts on their site, unlike eBay and others who just charge you huge amounts of money for selling on their platform.
What is a Teespring?
Teespring (visit their website) is one of the best T-Shirt design websites you can find. I’m serious, this website will pay you to sell T-shirts through their website, with a $0 investment.
That’s not even the best part, you won’t even need to print or ship these t-shirts, they will do it for you.
You just create a Teespring account, design your t-shirt, and publish it.
Once you create your t-shirt they will publish it on their website Teespring.com and everyone will be able to buy it, and you will get a commission from each sale.
How to Start with This Teespring
First, you need to click here and register your Teespring account, it’s free and you won’t have to wait for their approval, you can start creating shirt designs right away.
Designing T-shirt is really easy, it’s a simple process and everything is done using the Teespring dashboard, just write some text and add some design, make it look fancy.
You can upload some photo design too, like a logo or some funny meme, because people are buying those types of shirts. I will show you a step by step on how to create your first t-shirt.
1. T-Shirt Design and Price Tag
The first step is to create your t-shirt design, you can add some letters, quotes, some stylish fonts, and creative add-ons. You can add a photo design from your desktop, or you can choose some art from the Teespring library.
The more creative you are the more sales you get, keep this in your mind.
You can choose among 16+ T-shirt colors. You can also choose between 3 quality standards:
- Budget-friendly – This one is the cheapest one, and you should never use this one because a low price is always equal to bad quality.
- Top of the Line – This one is way too expensive, and you can order this one only if you are buying a t-shirt for yourself. If you use Top of the line quality, your price will be too high and you will get fewer sales.
- Premium Materials – You should use this one. This one will get you high-quality shirts with a long lifetime and affordable price.
You can choose your Fulfillment location in the upper right corner of your website.
If you are planning to sell to the US or Canadian customers, choose the US (as default).
If you are expecting more sales from Europe you can choose Europe as your fulfillment location.
You can print the front of your T-shirt, the back of your T-shirt, or both sides, it’s up to you.
2. Set your T-Shirt Price
Teespring will redirect you to this setup page. Here you can choose your Sales goal, number of T-shirts you think you can sell in 10 days.
You can choose any number from 1 up to 1000. (choose 100)
Once you choose your Sales goal you will be able to check your Estimated profit for that Sales goal.
You can choose your T-shirt price tag underneath.
Teespring will set your default price and you should leave it like that, you can change your T-shirt price, but if you make it cheaper you will get less commission, and if you make it more expensive you will get more commission but fewer sales.
Your average commission per T-shirt should be $5 to $10 per sale.
If you can sell 20 t-shirts per day you can easily make $100 every day, and that’s a really nice passive income. Once you complete this step you can click on the Next button.
3. Publish your T-Shirt Design
This is the last step in this process, now you just need to create your Campaign Title.
If you create a T-Shirt about Porsche cars, name it ‘Cool Porsche 911 T-Shirt – High Quality ‘, be creative and you will attract more potential buyers.
You should put a long description of this shirt, quality, color, and other stuff in the Description box.
You should add 5-10 tags fr each product, so if you create Porsche T-shirt, add some related tags like:
‘Porsche911’ ‘CarTShirt’ ‘PorscheFans’ ‘PorscheClub’ ‘Cars’…
You can choose your campaign length (3, 5, 8, 10.. days), you should choose 10+ days.
Don’t touch any other buttons, and click on the green Launch Button.
That’s it, your campaign is online.
How to Sell my T-Shirt?
Your T-shirt is now active in the Teespring store, when someone buys it from Teespring, you will get your commission. Problem is, you will get only 1-5 sales per month from the Teespring traffic alone, so you need to promote your Shirt on your own.
How to do it?
You will promote it on Facebook! Create a new Facebook page, name it something like Cool T-Shirt Designs, BMW T-Shirts, Cat T-Shirt Designs…
Publish all your product on your Facebook page, and now create a new Ad for your Teespring product.
I initially spent $5 on my Facebook ads, and I sold my first T-shirt on the first day.
The next day, I spent $10 on my ads, and my sales went up, so I gradually scaled my ads until I got to 15-20 sales per day.
Your Facebook page will start getting more and more likes and once you create some new T-Shirt designs, you can just publish them on your page and some of your followers will buy them.
You can promote your T-Shirts on some other sites like Twitter, forums, Adwords ads, Bing ads, Reddit… I’ve tried most of them and most of my sales came from Facebook ads.
Teespring will send you your commission payments to your Bank account, Paypal, or by Check…
How much money can I make from this method?
It’s up to you, the more you promote your products more money you make.
Also, try creating interesting T-Shirts, people will buy weird and unusual designs. Your average profit per sale will be around $5 $8, if you can sell 5 shirts per day you can easily make $25 – $40 in profit.
Let’s say you spend $15 per day promoting your items using Facebook ads, and you sell 5 shirts per day, your profit would be 25 – 40$ per day. Once you pay $15 for your ads you will still take $10 – $25 in profit and you don’t even need to print or ship these shirts, Teespring will do everything for you.
Don’t wait, click here and Start selling on Teespring.
Facebook Ads are expensive to start with if you want your targeted customer to be precise. It’s good for established business investing in a longer campaign run. Do you think selling the Tees on shopping sites like Ebay, Amazon and Shopify would yield more customers in a short run?
Fb ads would be better, try IG, Pinterest and Google ads too
What if I don’t sold any t-shirt? What if I don’t sold minimum?
You will get you payment no matter how many items you sell
And what if no one buys my t-shirt?
Try other design
great, keep working!
Thanks Adrian for all the great ideas bro but i need you help can you please tell me your private email?
Hi Adrian,
My question is about Facebook ads, should one use Promote My Page option, Promote a product catalogue, promote the Teespring link to the t-shirt…?
Which the smartest and pocket-friendly way to go with?
Thanks in advance.
Promote a Teespring link (send visitors to my website) option.
hi i am stuck on the set a goal page pliz help me out.
Goal is just a random number you think you will sell your shirts in, so choose any number you like.
Teespring is definitely legit. I’ve been selling t-shirts there for around 7 months and have earned $80k, ad spend has been a bit over 20k. This is a good guide for someone who’s never heard of Teespring, but to be successful there’s a lot more to it that what is described here. But good introduction nevertheless!
Dan can you share some of your experience on my skype id please m.shahrukh123
Nice, will try
Da li mogu ljudi iz Srbije da kupuju majse ili samo USA Canada ?
Svi mogu kupovati. Objasnio sam u tekstu ako ces prodavati.u Evropi izaberes gore fullfilment Europa.
Thanks for all the great ideas bro. I’ve been an internet kid my whole life. Can’t wait until I start capitalizing on my ideas. Just a matter of time before I’m a big wig and start bringing business your way. Keep hustling my man
Thanks a lot dude. Good luck, if you need any help you can contact me. Cheers
I found Teespring about a month ago then I just forgot about it, so thanks for this reminder! What do you think, how general should be the campaigns? I guess it’s a better idea to make a brand in a specific niche and make all of my T-shirts in that topic.
Ps: Thank you for your blog! Making real money online is my absolute goal, I made two micro-niche sites and a (semi)adult blog and made a few bucks, but nothing significant yet. Your blog is a real motivation for me!
Thank you for your compliments.
You should make niche Shirts, Car niche, Jokes and Job niches are best ones to start with.
You can ass some arts, photos, create some retro shirts, people will buy almost anything.
Nice method. It’s not something new, but it’s definitely well explained. Keep up the good work 🙂
Thank you, cheers!
Wow man better after better, I made nice money with your clickbank method, i will invest some of that money in this for sure, jonas
Thank you, and good luck, if you need any help contact me.
