How I Set Up Print on Demand Etsy Listings in Kittl

[00:01] to get your designs to your print provider to Etsy, but you also need incredible [music] mockups to gain attention to get more clicks and get more sales. And I'm going to show you a workflow to do exactly that going from

[00:15] the design in Kittle to your print provider and then creating some incredible mockup imagery that can stand out amongst the rest. Now, the print provider I'm going to use in this example is Printful, but no matter what

[00:27] you're using, the process of connecting the print provider to your Etsy shop is resources down [music] in the description because we're not going to go into how to connect those. It's actually just as simple as clicking

[00:39] connect and then logging in with your Etsy credentials. We're focused here on getting incredible listing photos. And don't go anywhere because at the end I'm going to show you an amazing listing template workflow to maximize your time

[00:52] and efficiency and get as many products and designs done so that you can have and designs done so that you can have way more listings. be making a t-shirt. Actually, we're going to be using the Comfort Colors

[01:07] 1717. It is a best-seller. A ton of people are using this particular garment and a lot of print providers, including Printful, offer this. And Kittle even has mockups for this exact t-shirt, which I'm going to show you in just a

[01:20] little bit. But right now, we want to make sure we get our design from Kittle over into Printful and then over into Etsy. And that's what I'm going to walk design is ready to go, we're going to click on our artboard right here and

[01:33] what we want to do is export it, which we can do up here in the export settings. And we're going to go ahead and click remove background so we don't have any white on our design. We just want the design alone so that it comes

[01:45] through on top of the t-shirt color. And this will allow us to offer more t-shirt variety. And one amazing feature about Kittle is that you actually have DPI control built in right here. So, for example, we can go ahead and type in 300

[01:58] DPI so we're getting an extremely massive image to import. We're going to into Printful so that we can upload this may be thinking at this point we haven't made any mockups yet. That's okay. Bear

[02:12] with me. It's going to make a whole lot of sense in just a second. So, over here in Printful, I've already searched for the garment dyed heavyweight Comfort Colors 1717. And I'm just going to be going with this

[02:25] ivory color. I really like this tan color. It's also very popular color that goes with a lot of combination varieties. And I'm going to go ahead and click start designing. And then once you already have your store linked to a

[02:38] print provider like Printful, you can select the one that you want to upload to. Once we're here in the designer, we can click upload to upload our design from Kittle. And once it's uploaded, we can click

[02:52] apply, which will then show our design on the t-shirt. And you can even see a bounding area for where the safe zone is. And it looks like we have a little bit more room to make the design a little bit bigger. Then we can even

[03:06] switch over and see what it looks like on some mockups. And it's actually right here where some of the magic is going to happen utilizing a super neat Kittle template. So, what I'm going to actually do right now is right click. I'm going

[03:21] do right now is right click. I'm going to copy this image, pop back over into Kittle, and I'm just going to right click and paste to have this image ready to go. And I'm going to show you the magic here in just a second because

[03:33] some incredible listing photos. But for the moment, let's go along with making sure our listing is in Etsy so that we can edit it later. So, going back to the product details, you can see in the product area in Printful all of the

[03:47] different sizes that you're going to be allowing as well as all of the different shirt colors you want to be choosing. So, for the sake of this example, let's different colors. And we're going to stick with mainly the light colors.

[04:00] Maybe we want to throw in this blossom pink color. And then maybe we want to throw in this orchid color right here as well as the butter color because why not? All right. So, after we have all of the sizing, all of the colors that we

[04:13] want to provide as well as the printing method, which I think for this DTG is I'm going to go down here to where it says publish. Now, this is going to take us to this mockup page. And as you can

[04:25] us to this mockup page. And as you can see, many of these are very, very basic. And as I flip through a lot of these, a lot of different listings are probably going to look very similar because they are using all of the candid or basic

[04:38] you. For the time being, I'm just going to select this one cream-colored one because I'm going to edit all of these later using the magic from Kittle. So, continue. Now, this is going to bring us to our pricing page. And this is going

[04:53] to be totally up to you to go through and do some market research based on the niche or the style design you are selling along with the actual product type and what it costs to actually fulfill. So, for example, if I keep the

[05:05] retail price in their suggested area, the estimated earnings are between $4 and $6 based on the size that someone selects. You can also go over and click by variant to see which t-shirt is going to be at which price as well as the

[05:21] estimating earnings for each one. We have a ton of amazing collaborators selling on Etsy that I will link down in the description for you to go and check out some tips from them for how they made the most money calculating pricing.

[05:34] For now, I'm going to keep everything as the main 30% increase benchmark and just click continue. This will then bring us to the details section, which is what's going to show up in Etsy. So, you're going to want to be a little bit more

[05:47] creative in your title. I'm just going to put Once Upon a Time Shirt, which is obviously not good for Etsy, but you can also check out some of our information title and description information from our collaborators. They're really,

[06:03] to keep the description the same because what we're trying to do is get to those listing photos as quick as possible. So, let me go ahead and click publish. And because we already selected our shop, this is going to go straight to it as a

[06:17] draft. You can see right here in my product area, it says right here it's waiting to be pushed to your store. It's actually going to be uploaded as a draft worry that things weren't completely done because we can go in and edit it

[06:30] before we publish it live in Etsy. And so, here we are. There's the Once Upon a Time Shirt. It looks like there are 35 synced variants, which is all of the to be providing as an option to buy in Etsy. So, now that that is ready to go

[06:45] in Etsy. Now, once we're in our Etsy shop manager, you can see in your draft are going to be the products that you sent over from Printful or wherever your print provider may be. All of them will give you the option to either hide or

[06:59] save as a draft before you publish it live on Etsy, which is super, super much recommend. So, what we're going to do is click on this draft of the Once Upon a Time Shirt. And this is going to open us to this area where we're going

[07:12] to enhance the photos and create a video. Now, the reason that's so section right here that says, "We found listings with video get twice as many orders as listings with just photos. Less than 28% of sellers have a video in

[07:28] their listing." So, this is a monumental way for stand out amongst others with can do that in Kittle. So, I'm going to show you exactly how. Now, remember, here is our main mockup of the basic

[07:41] Comfort Color shirt that is being provided exactly as it is from Printful. So, when someone buys this, that's the size of the design that's on that shirt by their bounding box that they're going to get in the mail. Now, remember, we

[07:54] copied and pasted this over into Kittle. But as I zoom out, what we're going to But as I zoom out, what we're going to see is a full listing template. And which I've linked down in the description for a variety of products,

[08:08] right here, this has already been set up with a different kind of t-shirt. But here's what's so great. If I delete that shirt and pop in this new one, because we have a workflow that's already set up for you and called Kittle Flows, which

[08:23] is just selecting this arrow and we can include a mockup, we can include a video board, which I'm about to show you as well as an AI image board. Once we have put our Etsy product in the template,

[08:35] all you have to do is go through and click regenerate on every single one of these. You can even see here some of the Comfort Colors are already selected. I'm going to leave this one as it is because it's actually already very close to the

[08:47] color of the shirt. Regenerate this, regenerate this, this one, and this one. all of these and you can pick and choose which ones you think are going to be good for your listing because your aesthetic might be different than mine,

[08:59] which is different than someone else's. But as we start to see some of these regenerate, now we can see the design in a brand new way. Isn't this super, super cool? We are ready to take this and

[09:12] PNG at three times the size, which I know is going to be way more than Etsy's requirements for 2,000 pixels, which we 2,000 pixels. Look at this amazing one right here. We're going to do the same

[09:25] thing. I'm going to select this one, quick export, three times the size, export that. And then look at these as they start to populate in. There's the pink one. There's the one mocked up on a person. Look at all how cool these are.

[09:39] So, maybe we want to do this lifestyle one. We'll go ahead and export this as well. And now after some of these are generated, what we can do is regenerate with the prompt that's already put inside for you is a video. And now after

[09:53] the product photos are generated, we can go into the AI video boards that are connected to them in this listing and using the prompt that's already in here, simply regenerate. It's already at 1x1. It's on claim three, which is great for

[10:08] video mock-ups. And we're just going to regenerate these so that we can decide which one we want to use or all of them for our Etsy listing template. So here, one was already a really, really close color to the one that was there before.

[10:23] bit of time to regenerate. So while that's regenerating, I'm going to show you over here in the right some more extremely important parts of your Etsy listing, which are the info cards. So for example, we have here the Gildan

[10:38] 5000, which this is not going to be correct for our size because we need to correct for our size because we need to do the Comfort Colors 1717. So these are super easy to click in and just edit the text. They're all ready to

[10:51] go for you. And of course, we would want to change the design in the background to our initial one. So for example, I can grab this photo and we're going to would want to make sure that we grab the actual sizing from Printful's website.

[11:07] But for the sake of consistency and time, I'm just going to size this to be a little bit closer to this, go to the center. And then of course, we would want to go and grab the actual size chart, paste it in, remove the

[11:21] background so that all this is exact. We can also grab all of those color going to set up and sell and put them as from having to put so many different colors as listing photos as well as

[11:35] doing that over here. So for example, if we wanted to take this photo and put this image right here, it's very easy to do so. We can do the same thing with the pink one for example. We can grab this pink photo. We're going to flatten it so

[11:48] that we can move it around, remove the background, and then we can delete this one, bring this one in, make it a little bit smaller, and even create an image remember we were going to sell a blue one, we were going to sell a purple one,

[12:02] or you could use this color chart as an example. Now here is an example of one of the videos that's ready to go. We're going to go ahead and click play, which is just zooming in and showing the design on the T-shirt.

[12:18] where it's just a slow zoom in on the T-shirt. And then here is the one that I would probably use, which is the design on a clothesline the one that I'm actually going to download and I can download it as an

[12:32] MP4, ready to go right into Etsy. And just for the sake of example, I'm going to download a couple of these so that we can show them in the Etsy listing feed. All right, so we're back in Etsy and all we need to do now is start uploading

[12:46] some images. And what I'm going to do is select multiple from here and I can is a really, really great feature. And now, I'm going to grab this one on the clothes pin and move it to the very front spot so that now that is my

[13:01] thumbnail. And I'm going to click on the video icon right here and then upload that 5-second clip that's going to loop when you hover over it in the feed. So this is already going to look so cool

[13:13] when this is happening in the feed. Just Oh, that's so nice. Now we can see all maybe we want to put them in a specific order. Like maybe we want to have the lifestyle one here, then we want to have it on grass, then we want to have this

[13:27] the one that's just on a white background here, or we could even delete that one. But now we can see all of our Etsy listing photos in order here that are going to appear when someone clicks into

[13:40] your listing. And isn't that so much cooler than having the basic mock-ups or having a basic T-shirt on a white background or a T-shirt on a model. Now of course, here in the rest of your Etsy listing area, I told you you can make

[13:54] updates to your pricing, you can talk about tags, you can select the materials, you can go over like a whole bunch of different things that you're make sure you have all together before you hit publish. Now before you go, I

[14:07] wanted to mention a couple of other extremely helpful things about Kittl because what I showed you was taking a product mock-up from Printful and embedding it into Kittl's Etsy listing templates, which is going to save you a

[14:20] more unique mock-ups, you could always select one of our versions of some of already have. So for example, the Comfort Colors 1717 is one of the

[14:32] products that we have already loaded into Kittl so that you can create more unique mock-ups for your brand. We even have some shots where we took outside on the streets of Berlin, which was fun. But even if you wanted to create various

[14:44] different backgrounds, you can add what's called an AI image board and change about the scenery in the back to give you even more unique mock-ups for your [music] products. Now the example I showed you in this video was for a

[14:57] T-shirt, but we have a lot of Etsy listing templates ready for you to edit in Kittl from products like a mug or a poster or a hat or other T-shirt and hoodie designs where you can even start with editing a design that's in the

[15:12] another design template, edit it, and then embed it into the workflow, or you can take your product images or product mock-ups straight from Printful, put them in Kittl, reiterate them with AI, and then upload them straight to Etsy.

[15:25] workflow I showed you for any of those products and replicate it and repeat that process for as many designs and as many products as you have. And if you're thinking I'm not the best with prompting to get more accurate descriptions or

[15:39] backgrounds, we have a full Notion prompting database that's free for you with [music] our models. And we also have a prompt builder down in our prompt section for you to build out different parts of your prompt so that you get

[15:54] exactly the styling, color, and lighting for your product photos. So now that you know how to go from design [music] to print provider to Etsy and then make even better Etsy listing photos, I'd like to know what you're selling down in

[16:08] selling T-shirts, I'd love to know that. If you're selling mugs, if you're selling journals, what is it that you're selling and what kind of style or niche are you selling for? I'd love to know more about how Kittl can best [music]

[16:20] fit your needs as an Etsy seller, especially if you're selling print-on-demand products. Because we want to help you capture more attention And if you have any other questions about how the listing templates work or

[16:34] general design questions for Kittl, let me know that as well. Don't forget to miss any helpful tutorials just like this one and we will see you in the next this one and we will see you in the next video.
