Hey everybody, welcome into this new tutorial
0:02
In this video I'm going to show you how you can make dropshipping here into Etsy.com
0:07
So it's going to be really really simple. I'm going to be using a lot of basic tools
0:11
It's going to be helping us to make some dropshipping so you don't have to worry about having too
0:16
much experience on the online selling, merchandise and all that. So we will be covering the basics so you can start selling into Etsy.com
0:26
Take a look here into this example. Here's the customer right in here
0:30
So let's say this customer sees your store and wants to buy an item, let's say for example
0:36
of a phone of $200. So the customer pays you $200. We have a connection to the supplier and the supplier are the ones who have the items
0:48
they have the phone. So we need to pay the supplier for the item, for selling the item
0:54
So of those $200, we're going to give them $150 so the supplier can send directly the
1:02
item to the customer. So at the end of the day, you are keeping $50 of the $200 of the customer
1:10
So now that we know how this dropshipping works, how can we do this into Etsy
1:16
Well Etsy.com is just as many places we can buy and sell our stuff
1:22
Now if you have an Etsy.com account, you just need to sign in
1:25
If you don't, well, I'm going to leave you a link down below guys in the description so you can sign up totally for free
1:31
And once you sign up, you want to go into this section where you can go into the start selling
1:36
So now that we have an account here into Etsy and now we can start selling
1:41
Well if you select the option that says start selling, it's going to be popping up this new plan of the shop preferences
1:48
We have to name our shop. We have to stock our shop. We're going to get paid
1:52
We can set up our building and our shop security. Right. So before we dig into this, let's see a website where we're going to be getting our supplier. Right
2:02
How do you know what to sell? Well, speaking about creating dropshipping into Etsy, I do strongly recommend you guys
2:09
to go into this great website called Printful.com. I love to use this application because there are a bunch of ways that we can earn money
2:17
and they, of course, have the dropshipping section here on demand. So if you scroll down, you're going to see here how the print on demand dropshipping works
2:29
So the only thing that happens here, we connect our store to Printful
2:34
In our case, we connect our Etsy store to Printful and then we add our products
2:41
And in here into the Printful.com, we can set those products and put our own retail prices
2:48
So what happens in here is that the customer buys from our stores as we just saw before
2:54
they charge for the fulfillment and we keep the profit of the total price
2:59
Then they take care of the order and control of the whole fulfillment process
3:04
Then the customer receives the order with our brand attached to it
3:09
And we're good to go. As you can see, connect Printful to the platform and marketplace of your choice
3:14
So if you want to work here into Etsy, you can do that. If you want to work with other places like Amazon, TikTok, eBay, well, you're totally
3:23
good to go there. But in this tutorial, we're going to stick with Etsy
3:27
So if you click in here, it says sell on Etsy with print on demand shopping
3:32
So what I want to do is to connect my Etsy store into Printful
3:36
So if you already have here your store, as you can see, here is the shop preferences
3:41
name your shop, shop your stock. So I'm just going to go into shop my country, shop currency, I'm going to go to save and continue
3:49
Now here is connect your Etsy store to Printful. There's a video if you want to check out here
3:54
I'm going to just do it real quick. I'm going to look down here, connect to Etsy button
3:59
So I'm just going to click in here. We need to authorize that I'd like to connect to our account
4:04
So if you want to read this, you're free to do it. All right
4:08
So now that we've already linked our Etsy shop, it says add your first product to start MX
4:14
So you can go into add product. And in here is going to be a lot of new products, my product templates, warehouse items in here
4:22
So as you can see, there are a bunch of tools that we can use in order for selling here stuff
4:29
So this is the really interesting part, knowing what to sell. So in order for doing that, I'm going to go back into Etsy and I'm going to keep my
4:37
Pinterest account already opened. I'm going to tap some keywords, right? So for example, let's try to use the word cat, cat t-shirt, and showing results for
4:49
cat t-shirts. So if you go into all the filters, you have to stick with this option
4:55
It says all items delivered to the country they're currently living and any price
5:02
And after you go into apply, it's going to be showing me a bunch of ads, of course, items
5:07
that are currently like the most trending here into this page. So as you can see, it says meow shirt for cat lover
5:13
I'm going to change this just for a second. So as you can see, there are like a little some fun of them
5:19
This one has 900 reviews. So now what I do here is to go into the Pinterest account
5:27
And in here, I want to look for the keyword, which is search into Etsy so we can start
5:32
making some designs of our own and sell that into Etsy, right
5:36
So I'm going to go into cat retro t-shirts and here is going to be appearing lots of
5:41
ways, lots of things that we can use. So as you can see, these are cat t-shirts
5:47
The one that we just saw on Etsy, this one looks almost as the same of this design
5:52
So now that we took some inspiration here, we can now create our design
5:57
If you already have a design, it was really simple. You just need to import that into your product listing and print full
6:03
But in this case, we don't have a design. So that's a way that you can just create your design
6:09
You can go into Canva.com where this place is totally for free, or you can go into Feeba
6:14
or another place where you can contract a freelancer and you can pay them to create
6:18
you a design, in this case, a vintage cat for a t-shirt
6:24
And then let's say you invest like five or $10 or more than two designs
6:29
And actually it's going to be like an investment because you're going to be selling a lot of those t-shirts, right
6:34
But if you want to mess around and you want to do this on your own, you can always go
6:38
into Canva.com. I'm going to create a design. I'm going to go into custom size where I can start from scratch and let's see what the
6:47
Canva tools have to offer to me. So now as you can see, I just add like a few elements
6:57
So my picture looks a little bit more better. So I kind of like this file
7:03
So now what I want to do is to choose here the share section and try to download this
7:10
item as a PNG file. So now I'm going to go into download
7:16
And now that my image has been downloaded, what I want to do is to go here into my print
7:20
full section. And in our case, let's head into some t-shirts, right
7:26
So I'm going to go into, let's say women's clothing, because let's say that our target
7:31
for today is tourists. Alright, so now that we choose our item here, I'm going to select my product
7:38
And something to keep in mind, let's say for example, the page asks us to submit our image
7:44
our design in a different dimension. So if you go into share, and you're trying to download with different size is going to
7:52
be asking you for a premium subscription of Canva.com. But what you can try your seven free days trial with the link that I'm going to leave
8:00
you down below in the description, you'll be having three days totally for free
8:05
Or the second option that I actually use a lot is to just go into my home section, I'm
8:11
going to use a new tab. And I'm going to choose here into the pixels, let's say that they're asking me for 5000, right
8:21
So I'm going to use this, this side, I create a new project
8:26
And now, what I just need to do is to copy all my elements and paste it into this new template
8:33
So as you can see, here's our t shirt. So let's say this is the left chest, they want to choose if you want to choose a center
8:41
a large center, a bag, a label where you can import your this side, you can totally
8:47
do that. Now, as you can see, here's our design. So I want to make this a little bit more big on something like this, I kind of like this
8:55
the side. Now that we are okay with that, I think it looks pretty good for me
9:00
And the backside, if you want to add something, you can do that my case, I just won't do it
9:06
But if you want to add a backside, you can totally do that. Alright, so now here we have to put all our details of our product
9:14
Here's the main markup image. Try to put a product title here
9:18
Now I'm gonna scroll down all my way up. So once again, you have to set your revenue and the currency that your country supports
9:30
Now as you can see, here is my product, customer card, unisex premium KBPT
9:34
And as you can see, here's the item. If I want to see here is the status on Etsy as a draft
9:40
So I can go into I want to go into my listings
9:45
And lastly, what I need to do is to go once again, here, I'm going to go into edit in
9:50
Etsy, if I want to place that already. So I can go in here, as you can see here, has been imported already my photos, the just
10:00
thumbnail, if a video if you want to add a video, so all the information that I wanted
10:06
to add is now available in here. So actually Printful do everything for me, right
10:11
So here's the price, quantity, the Printful key chains, delivery options. So as you can, as you can see, there are a bunch of options that was already successfully
10:21
done by Printful. So I lastly want to add this photo because I just use that for advertising here, my design here
10:31
So I'm going to go back into Etsy. I'm going to choose this image and I'm going to put it in here, set it to primary
10:38
And this is my thumbnail, right? So if I checked on preview, here's my listing, here's my cosmic cat unisex premium KBYT
10:47
And we have done that. We've done that here into design into Canva, this is how it's going to be looking
10:53
So I'm going to go and see my item here. So as you can see, it looks pretty good for me
10:59
This is the size guys and everything. And we are already into Etsy
11:04
This has been already listed. And here are all the size. I can see the highlights and description, the delivery and return policies
11:11
