[00:01] don't start an online business or a print on demand business in general is because it's overwhelming. All the things that you need to set up can feel And in today's video, I'm going to share with you how we can simplify [music]
[00:14] these steps, reduce the overwhelm, and utilize AI. Because with today's technology and being able to use AI not to replace us, but to help us make things more efficient and do things faster can be really beneficial. And if
[00:28] post videos talking about e-commerce, passive income, and different ways to to do with print on demand as that's the business model that I've been doing since I lost my bartending job in 2020. And it has completely changed my life.
[00:42] I'd love to have you a part of our community here on YouTube. So, subscribe if you are not already. Now, as I mentioned, AI can be something that people either love or hate. And me specifically, at first, I was not really
[00:55] an AI fan. But once I realized how many things it could help me with to again be more efficient rather than just replace me completely, I am now a fan and I use it a lot in day-to-day for my online businesses, including print on demand.
[01:08] you're wanting to get started, this video is definitely for you cuz I'm going to show you these steps that you can use AI to really just help you start this business from start to finish. We're going to go over how to figure out
[01:20] what to sell, how to create products with AI, and how to even create your own cool. So, I'm excited to share that with you. Then, how to create designs and mock-ups with AI and do your SEO and even [music] marketing. So, very cool
[01:34] today's video. And of course, everything is timestamped. Now, very first is sell. And I think that this is what stops a lot of people cuz they either have no idea or too many ideas that they just don't act on. And with print
[01:48] ondemand being one of the best business models, there are a lot of different sell because when you partner with a print on demand supplier like Printify, they have all these blank products for you to create designs and list and it
[02:02] can be a bit intimidating because there are so many. So what I recommend doing is go to your AI and type in a little bit about yourself or products that you want to sell and simply ask the AI for ideas. can also ask the AI to validate
[02:16] if these are products that people are searching for or niches that people are actively buying in. You can even ask the AI to do a search for you across Google or other sites like Etsy or Tik Tok shop to see again if people are buying in the
[02:29] specific niche. Now, once you've done that, the next step is figuring out Because there are a lot of different options [music] when we are going to be creating our products to sell. And recently I found an AI website builder
[02:42] [music] for you but also can create your store. Meaning you can choose the product and it will actually create niche specific designs for your store
[02:54] friendly and again utilizing AI to create something for us that we can moving. So what I'm talking about is called Opaop. Now, Office is a way that you can literally tell the AI exactly what you want to sell and what you want
[03:09] create it for you. All you have to do from the homepage [music] is click this exactly what you want to create your store around and it will do it using AI. And you may notice too that below there are some niche options as well. Now,
[03:24] this is cool because as I mentioned earlier, it will actually create designs somebody that's never created a print on completely brand new, this is a great option because you can choose from one
[03:37] of these niches and then once you hit to generate your store, it will begin generate your store, it will begin creating the store for you. And again, listing these pre-esigned products after you choose one of them. And there's a
[03:49] [music] it takes just a few moments to do this, as you can see. And then you have all these different products on your store for that specific niche that you chose. Now, this is great, too, because it's also very customizable. So,
[04:02] can change the fonts, and of course, switch out any photos. There are going in there, too. So, you don't have to change these. But, if I'm being honest, your store success, you really do want to put some time and energy to it. So,
[04:16] photos or your own mockups can be really beneficial to the success of your store. do later down the line. The main thing is actually getting your store set up Office and you list these products already, you're pretty much halfway
[04:32] is there's other features as well. There's everything you need for an a bunch of different other apps. And you can also connect your Printify account very seamlessly. And don't worry if you don't have a Printify account yet for
[04:45] set one up right through Opa. It walks you through step by step. And then you can actually start creating and listing products of your own or import them from another store if you're already active as a print-on-demand seller. and also
[04:58] helps you with your SEO. You can do email marketing and you can even do your store's overall credibility. [music] because when you have reviews on your store, it helps to have customers really
[05:11] trust you and actually buy from you. So, if you've been wanting to create a want to try out something that is with AI that will actually create your products for you, your descriptions, your photos, and really help to get you
[05:24] started. I highly recommend OpaOp. Of course, I will leave a link for you in notice when signing up to this, too, that it is having an Everbe logo. That's because it is also created by the Everbe team, which is how we know that this is
[05:38] because if you're new to my channel or if you've seen my channel before, you a Chrome extension for searching. So, if you in the description below so you can
[05:50] works. And again, this is perfect for somebody that really wants to start and to have everything optimized for you. Now, with this too, when you're listing your products, something that I mentioned briefly that's very important
[06:04] is your SEO. And I'm somebody that highly uses AI [music] for my SEO. If you're not familiar with SEO, this is called search engine optimization. The way that SEO works is essentially what someone types into Google and Google
[06:19] shows them what they typed in, right? [music] So, if you're selling a t-shirt with a dog on it, those key are key words that need to be included so that someone can find that t-shirt when they search for it. And so, by using relevant
[06:32] keywords and different things in our titles and descriptions, we can really help to gain more traffic and potentially get more sales through SEO. So, I really love to use different apps like Chachi PT and Claude to do this as
[06:45] well. And I just find it to be extremely helpful because I like to take a photo it directly into [music] this AI, and ask it for an optimized create for me. And I think that this is
[07:00] platform you're selling on. Like I said, if you're using something like a shop, in case you want to add additional keywords or make a description more of recommend doing. This is something that I do across all the board and platforms
[07:15] that I sell on and I have seen really great results with it. I'm not really sure why. I don't know if AI just knows more about search engine optimization than I do. I've been doing it for years on my own. But by utilizing this AI, it
[07:27] can make it more userfriendly and a little bit more easy to understand when you are a beginner and don't really know exactly how SEO works yet. And SEO can be a free traffic source that can help you if your SEO is really good rather
[07:41] than having to spend a ton of more money on advertisements. Now, next, let's talk something that has completely transformed for me after using AI. Now, I used to make all my designs completely on my [music] own, which is great and if
[07:55] you can do so, I highly recommend it. However, I know that a lot of people starting out with print on demand may not be super comfortable with designing. So, I love AI designing because of a platform that I've used for years.
[08:07] Launched the absolute coolest AI I have seen when it comes to designs. This is you've heard me talk [music] about them because you can create the most insane things just by using a prompt. And it works similarly to if you were to use a
[08:20] chat GPT or Claude, but essentially you're just asking it to make you an though is that you can choose from multiple different AI image generators all under one platform rather than having to set up for Google Gemini or
[08:34] Nano Banana. You can do it all within KD's AI and just select which one you'd like to generate with. KD also has a ton of templates that you can use and start with as well [music] and then create what's called an AI smartboard to
[08:48] continue the design and make it your [music] own. I have made so many amazing cool things utilizing this method. especially using the art boards to create multiple designs because once I already have one design, I can [music]
[09:00] make five to 10 more or 100. There's really no limit just by creating an AI have to do is [music] start with your image, select artboard, hit AI image board, and then just type [music] the changes. So I can say change the text to
[09:15] say western [music] girl, add sparkles girl, add sparkles and [music] make the colors pink and and [music] make the colors pink and purple. Add in a longhorn. And then once
[09:30] I hit generate, it'll start creating another version of this with the changes unlimited opportunities [music] with this of how many different designs you can make. and the AI will just keep changing it for you. So, see, in just a
[09:43] few seconds, [music] I now have this design. I can convert it to an image, that, we can place this on a product [music] to start selling. And then, if creations too for different artboards, you can just go under [music] my
[09:57] you've made with AI. So, here's an example of all the ones that I've made with this AI, doing patterns, [music] different mockups, videos. There's so many things that I've created doing this and [music] it's saved me so much time
[10:10] and they look so realistic and so good. So, I highly [music] recommend that. You can also use this to create beautiful mock-ups, which I also love to do. All you have to do is the same thing. Generate another AI image board and ask
[10:23] the AI for a mockup of literally whatever you want and it will create it for you. I've also been using this to [music] create videos and UGC for my products. And these are all things that you can then take and implement on the
[10:36] created. We have slowly left the state of where you would have to order samples to take your own photos and videos of your products. You can now do this all with AI. And it's realistic if you're starting out with what that product
[10:49] actually looks like with your design. I have a few tutorials on this [music] which I will leave in the description below cuz it is such a cool process and I would highly recommend trying this out. There's so many opportunities with
[11:02] this, too, through templates and through pre-built flows that they have. It's are a beginner or if you're somebody that's a designer already and uses other platforms, I would highly recommend checking this out cuz it is the best AI
[11:16] course, I will link it in the description for you if you have not about marketing. Because once you already have your product, you have your AI store built, you have your SEO,
[11:28] you've done your AI images and designs and photos, now we need to market your online store so that we can actually get sales. And marketing is a honestly very been doing this for a long time. And the thing that really tripped me up the most
[11:43] in the beginning was marketing cuz I had no idea how to do it. Now, there [music] are actually a lot of free ways to do marketing. I know a lot of people hear advertisements that are paid. And yes, that [music] is a very effective route
[11:57] if you know who you're selling to. But if you're just starting out, I actually don't tell people to spend all their money on ads. I think what works better [music] is going the free route through talking to people that you know and
[12:09] [music] reviews and then also using things like social media or Pinterest to my favorite ways to do this is actually through Pinterest because with Pinterest being a search engine, people are
[12:22] actively on there looking for ideas, inspiration, and a lot of like clothing, apparel, and different like types of print on demand products. And they're not actually in the sense to buy. They're in the sense to get inspired or
[12:35] save or create mood [music] boards, but it actually does convert pretty well. You can put a direct link to your product on a Pinterest pin [music] media where someone will have to comment
[12:48] for a link [music] or go to your bio, still effective, but by having that automatically can go directly to your product page and check out, those are it's less of a decision fatigue. [music] It's less of a step. And so, I've seen a
[13:04] lot of success with this. And what I really like to do to use AI is you can take one of your mockup photos that you have of your product and then you can ask the AI to create a Pinterest pin for you. You can ask it to create a title
[13:19] and description that is SEO driven for Pinterest so that you can already just copy and paste directly over to Pinterest. So on a Pinterest account, I for your business. All you have to do is upload your mockup photo and then copy
[13:34] and paste the title, description, and then add in relevant tags, add in the link to your product, and start posting these pins. Now, what I recommend for this, too, is you can schedule out pins in advance. So, spend a few hours doing
[13:47] this and [music] schedule out multiple pins for products in your store, and [music] marketing strategy through Pinterest. Now, I won't lie, this is a longer term play rather than if you were going to spend money on paid
[13:59] getting your products out there for free. You can also post the same photos or videos that I just showed you of making with AI on your social media accounts to really help people to see your products and get it going. And I
[14:12] I know that when you're in the beginning stages of things, as I said, it's overwhelming. I know that. But also, it can feel a bit defeating. It can feel this. there's no room in the market for [music] me. And I want you to take those
[14:26] thoughts and completely erase them cuz it's not true. There is so many people to sell products. It's not oversaturated. And half of the people that will tell you that or say that have never actually tried it themselves or at
[14:39] least tried hard enough [music] to launch an online business or to gain that attention. Most people will not start at all or start and give up after a few days because they can't put that consistency or see the vision. So, if
[14:52] video, you obviously have interest in it. And I fully believe that you can do it because I was in that position just a few years ago where I felt like, [music] I don't know if it's going to work. And had I given up, I would never even be
[15:06] close to where I'm at now. And with having all these AI tools that I wish I would have had when I got started, I know I would have been able to scale everything so much faster. So, I really hope that this video is helpful to you.
