[Music]
thanks for joining me on this video my

button right there
so in this video it's all about tea
public it's definitely one of my top
three print on demand sites you can see
up here redbubble merged by amazon t
public how do you do that that one right
there
um
so there's some differences between tea
public and redbubble but don't sleep on
t public i made more on t public in
december than i did on redbubble and i
have just a little bit less designs on
there so i'm going to teach you what i
know about t public why i think it's
definitely in the top three for me
and what kinds of things sell there i'm
going to go on there and show you step
by step on how to upload things what
kinds of things sell there how many
uploads you can make and just give you
all the things you need to know to get
started you can get started right away
you don't have to wait it's kind of like
redbubble you can sign up and start
uploading stuff right away i'm going to
show you what kinds of sizes you're
going to need and all the products that
they have that have ton of products and
a lot of cool things that other
print-on-demand shops don't do so stay
tuned to this we're just going to get
into tea public i'm going to go into the
internet right now and show you
everything i know about it so here i am
on t public you can see t public.com
that's how you get there you might want
to bookmark that um you can see the
things that they sell here mostly are
apparels number one let me just click on
these
t-shirts tank tops hoodies crew necks
baseball shirts all those same thing for
the kids
mass they sell mass home goods you can
see all these things a lot like
redbubble and cases phone cases stickers
and magnets so they have a lot of
products but they're mainly apparel or
t-shirts why that's the name t public
right that's how they started selling
t-shirts it started in 2013 and then
redbubble bought it in 2018 and now
redbubble owns it but it still works the
same way that it did back in the day so
i don't think redbubble made that many
changes
they have something good here that's a
little different so they stick with that
one of the things i like is they tell
you what the top sellers are right here
and if you scroll down you know they're
always changing this dashboard so you
can see what's current and they have
editors picked so you can see the types
of things that the editors think are
selling and the things that are selling
nice hand-drawn things right you can see
a lot of artwork not a lot of words
there are some graphics with words here
but not a lot you can see
mainly designs mainly hand drawn or
photography or kind of a mix of both
kind of mashups of things right mashups
of colors mashups of you know there's a
hat and a frog and things like that so
they do a lot of pop culture as well
we're gonna see that but you can see
these are the types of things and you
can hit more brows here and then they
have a lot of things here on the bottom
that can help you if you're a designer a
lot of things uh like this where you can
see featured designers and the tea
public blog and designer guide and
things like that that will help you i'm
gonna go look at some of the faqs just
so to answer some of the big facts but
you can go in here and
look at some of that too so first thing
i want to do is look at some hot sellers
so you can see the types of things that
people like to buy on redbubble so these
can be sorted by newest or most popular
so i'm going to do popular right here
and these are the things that are
popular on redbubble again hand-drawn
things kind of mash up look at this
mashup with the tiger and the flamingo
you can see more hand-drawn stuff not a
lot of tech stuff so if you're an artist
this is a great place to be just
original art kind of mashing things up
you see here's a pun
here's kind of more pixel drawings lots
of different types of artwork right art
styles and things
so let's keep a look at this here's
another mashup of a flamingo and a
camper right
uh send nudes a funny text
mashup of a godzilla riding a scooter so
those kinds of things
it can be more realistic it can be
fantasy i think a lot of fantasy stuff
does well anime stuff just
all over kind of kawaii stuff does well
too so look at that
so now that we know what kinds of things
sell well on t public let me show you
some other things about t public that
you might want to know about so first
let's go to the fax here
i'm going to click on fax
and designer fax right here
and these will answer a lot of your
questions but i'm going to go into some
of the top ones that i think
the first question you might want to
know is when you get started how many
designs can i upload at once so i think
on redbubble the limit is 60 on t public
it's 50. 50 designs per day which is a
lot if you can upload 50 designs a day
that's great and again they're going to
have to be those kind of style of
designs right you're not just uploading
text designs you're uploading hand-drawn
art design so it's going to take a
little bit longer to get you those kind
of designs
so the next thing you might want to know
about is what are the dimensions that
you can use the minimum dimensions here
are 1500 by 995 that's the minimum if
you're going to use the merch by amazon
size which i suggest you use if you're
already doing merch by amazon that's
going to work for most products but if
you want to put it on all products it's
5000 by 5500. again merch by amazon if
you just if you don't want to make
different sizes that will cover a lot of
it and you can see here um it's going to
cover all of these except for the giant
tapestry right here these big tapestries
if you're just going for t-shirts and
some of the smaller things iphone cases
and and stickers and things like that
you'll be fine with the merch by amazon
size but if you're only doing tea public
i would suggest just put it on all
products and do it this size so the next
question you might have is how much do
you get paid on t public if you sell an
item during a sale it you get less
because they drop the prices and this is
what
this chart will explain everything so
when you click here you can see
at a regular price for a t-shirt you can
make four dollars for a 20 shirt and on
a sale they'll drop the price and cut it
in half and you only get two dollars now
that's not a lot of money but it does
get more people to buy your stuff and
get your shop
more visits and so when people come back
you know they'll they'll get it at the
regular price so this this is the full
earnings for everything hoodies you make
eight dollars which is really nice um
tank tops still for
and you cannot change these prices not
like redbubble these prices are set
which is good and bad it's good because
everybody's selling at the same price so
you don't get people trying to lower the
price to get a sale and you're not
getting people who are raising the price
outrageous so this is
t publix model i think it works really
well i get a lot of sales anyway um four
dollars is okay i wish it was more five
and six but you know i can't complain
still getting a lot of sales and here's
a whole list uh you may not wanna know
that but i think uh i'll put a link in
the description to this earnings site
right here but what you need to know is
most t-shirts most apparel t-shirt size
you'll get four and hoodies you get
eight and on sale is half price
so it's really easy to create an account
all you have to do is go here if you're
not signed up hit create account and
fill in all of these things and hit
create account and it's easy as that so
you could also click here designer sign
up and this will tell you more about
what t public does how much you earn and
easy you can see
it also shows you the different products
we're going to i'm going to show you
those kinds of things but these are the
kind of their top products
and what they pay again like i said
um and it's just just that easy
so
let me sign in with my account and i'll
show you what my what a storefront looks
like and what you need to do so once
you're signed up you can get a
storefront and what you would need to do
if you want to make sure you want to
make sure to do all these things is to
upload your cover photo make sure you
have your icon here fill out everything
you need to so that your designs are
searchable on t public i think a lot of
people just upload their products and
forget to do their store and icons and
things like that and then their stuff
doesn't show up when when you search so
make sure you do everything you need to
make sure you have the banner the icon
make your own don't copy these but then
people can come here and look at your
stuff right and look at that so
so before i show you how to upload
something let me show you one more thing
about tea public
and we'll go we'll just go to all
designs here and browse one thing that t
public does here is gives you top tags
of things that are selling so these are
kind of old i think because you know
black friday was uh near thanksgiving
you got thanksgiving here squid game was
over a long time ago so um these aren't
really current but i think these still
kind of helped to let you know what
kinds of things are selling on t public
you know they they do a lot of pop
culture references and things like that
and you can see again a lot more artwork
kind of stuff a lot less words but just
be careful on t public not to do things
that are copyrighted stay away from
muppets and
things like that
so
unless you're doing fan art they do have
fan art
as well so you can go in here
so just like redbubble they do have fan
art programs so these are all of them
right here you just go to uh current
brand partnerships i'll put a link in
the description as well for these but
unless they're part of these right here
don't do any of the other fan art you
can't just put up those kinds of things
those may get taken down all right so
now let's upload something i'm going to
go back to t public
and hit upload a design
and i'm going to grab a design from my
desktop and put it on here
so i uploaded my design here and gave
myself a title i'm just using keywords
that i want the main thing you want to
do is make sure that the keywords in
your design title match what's on here
and make sure you get a main tag now
this is something different in
tea public that you have one main tag
and the nice thing about t public is it
will tell you if the main tag is better
or not than the tags you're using here
um and when you type in the tags it's
gonna give you suggestions down here so
you can see retro yeah it's retro
vintage yep it's vintage retro wave
perfect uh japanese i saw japanese there
i'm gonna do japanese
see how it fills it in so you can use up
to 15 tags here i'm not gonna do all of
them but just put in as many uh all 15
tags here and if it is better if it will
tell you if
one of these should be the main tag but
that main tag should be your strongest
tag what is somebody going to be
searching for
most of the time and that's that right
there all right and then does this
contain mature content no
and you can see
by default it just puts it on here and
it selects all the colors look at all
those colors you could do if it's a
something just for a light t-shirt you
can just hit light and it will just
it'll just do the light colors and if
it's dark you can do just the dark
colors you can see black or you could do
all
i think mine's going to do better on
dark because of the white text here so
i'm going to hit dark and then i'm going
to pick my default color this is
something nice too that you can pick
your default color i wish merch by
amazon had that
and you can pick black i want to do
black and you can see all of these are
black and then this one i can do black
as well
and you can just do that so pick all the
colors that you want and you can see
like a preview of what the colors are as
you scroll over here that's really cool
and then you here are some other the
other products so stickers you can see
it automatically flip that black
background
outside but if you didn't want that you
could turn that off but i like it
because
my white text here
and then you can size it if they're not
the right size it kind of sizes it
correctly but if you want to change the
size you can see i could make it bigger
smaller let's say i want to make it
bigger like that and size it and pillows
you can see that's a great size it does
a really good job of doing it so you
don't have to move it but you can and
you can make each of these different
colors if you if you don't want this
black you could change it to a different
color as well so that's how you do it
and you have to read and agree to all
the conditions and then just publish so
i'm going to publish it here
boom
and there you go
there's my t-shirt here by detour shirts
and then
people can pick the size and you can see
like i said it's on sale for the first
72 hours this is where you can um
send it out do some posts and say hey
look at my new t-shirt on t public and
people can get it for sale after 72
hours you'll go up to that 20 bucks but
for when it sells for that 14 you only
get two dollars per shirt
and then it goes up to
twenty dollars per shirt you can do the
hoodie as well let's look at the hoodie
again uh the hoodie is forty five
dollars which is
uh kind of expensive at least more
expensive than the merch by amazon ones
but you get a good royalty on that one
people still do buy the hoodies and you
can see the different colors on the
hoodies and things
so nice there
and if it's too big if it looks too big
you can always go back and and size it
down so you can see right here this is
the sale for 72 hours so
fun
so one last thing i wanted to show you
and that is watermark so if people come
in and look at your site
i'm looking at my own stuff but a lot of
times if someone comes in and looks at
it you can see these watermarks right
here and that's something you can turn
on this is kind of trying to stop the
copycats from taking your design so if
someone comes in here looks at the black
one
you can see that those watermarks right
there forty public so it's right here if
you go if you go to my account and go to
image security watermark and you can
turn that on right there instead of
having it like this so that is it for t
public if you want to learn anything
