This Amazon program is awesome!
It affords anyone the opportunity to sell “print on demand” T-Shirts, hoodies, long-sleeved T-shirts, etc as well as some other items such as Pop-Sockets on their platform.
This program truly is a great opportunity for anyone who wants to sell online. You can sell shirts (and other items) with no upfront money. You could easily start a very lucrative business with this model. One simply uploads a T-Shirt design and Amazon does the rest. No cost at all to the seller. Your shirt will be printed and shipped usually within a day or so of receiving an order. Not only that, but Prime shipping is free! This can be a single shirt or multiple shirts.
This is a great way to design and sell shirts. Amazon has made a significant investment in printing machines which cost in the neighborhood of $500,000.00 each and they have a warehouse the size of a football field housing these huge printing machines which are the size of a car and takes several people to operate. And, Amazon lets us use their machines at no cost to print and sell T-Shirts. You set your own price as to what you want to sell the shirts for. The only stipulation to pricing is that you make at least 1 cent profit. Therefore, if you were so inclined, you could design and sell shirts to groups such as Little League, bowling leagues, church groups, etc. for just a penny over cost.
How great is that? Amazon lists these shirts and products on their site and another benefit is these items qualify for Prime Shipping. Amazon takes care of everything such as listing the items, selling them, shipping them and collecting the money and if there’s a customer service issue, Amazon takes care of that as well. Amazon then sends my profit to my bank account. It doesn’t get any better than that. I’ve been selling T-shirts with this program almost since it’s inception.
Again, this is an excellent way to make money on the road as all you need is an Internet connection and a good design.
