We have asked experienced Spreadshop Owners exactly what it is that makes them successful. Having compiled their wisdom, we\u2019ve put together a guide for those who are new at Spreadshirt. Take note of these 10 very important tips as you\u2019re getting started with your Shop.<\/span><\/p>\n
- \n
- \n
Find inspiration everywhere<\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
Whether you’re out for a drink with your friends or spending time with your family, there’s always a bit of wisdom that\u2019s worth quoting. In situations like these, we suggest pulling out your smartphone and writing down what you\u2019ve just heard. It will serve as a foundation for creating your future designs.<\/p>\n
- \n
- \n
Stick to your trade<\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
Specialize in topics that you really like instead of fishing in muddy waters. You know your peers best, sticking to your interests will help your target group identify with your products. What\u2019s more, it\u2019ll help you spend more time on your designs and products and less time doing research.<\/p>\n
- \n
- \n
Blow your social media trumpets<\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
Being successful in the e-commerce business goes hand in hand with advertising on social media. It\u2019s the meat and potatoes for promoting your brand. Facebook and Instagram are the most important channels, meaning any cash invested in these promos is money well spent. These channels offer you numerous, easy-to-use tools that help you narrow down your target group, allowing you to run ads that find the right people.<\/p>\n
- \n
- \n
Keep your products in the current<\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
It should go without saying: some designs and products perform better than others. Take a good look at your sales statistics and say goodbye to those products that don’t sell well. It\u2019ll improve your Shop\u2019s overall appearance. Plus, bringing your product selection in line with seasonal events and holidays will work in your favor when people look for gifts.<\/p>\n
- \n
- \n
Put quality over quantity<\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
Instead of uploading several new designs a day and posting them on Facebook, you should consider exactly what your customers want. What kind of product would really capture their imagination?<\/p>\n
- \n
- \n
Know the devil in the detail<\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
Create your designs with great attention to detail. You don\u2019t want to offer run-of-the-mill streetwear, so be sure to set yourself apart from the masses by creating unique products with clever details.<\/p>\n
- \n
- \n
Invest in your Shop<\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
Once your Shop has been set up, it won’t start selling all by itself. It takes effort, maintenance and care to unlock the potential of your designs and products. Try thinking of new ways and ideas to lure your customers to your Shop.<\/p>\n
- \n
- \n
Be open to new ideas<\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
The more you try, the faster you\u2019ll understand what works and where you should spend most of your time and energy.<\/p>\n
- \n
- \n
Admit to mistakes and learn from them<\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
If something doesn’t work, you should also have the courage to bring it to a close. No matter how much heart and soul (or time) you have invested, you need to count your losses and move on.<\/p>\n
- \n
- \n
Listen to your customers<\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
When you get feedback from your customers, take it to heart and take it as motivation for new designs or products.<\/p>\n
We hope these tips will help you get your Shop off the ground. Is there anything else you would like to know or share? Let us know in the comments. <\/em><\/p>\n

What\u2019s Being Discussed?<\/h2>\n

- \n
- HTML\/CSS hacks<\/li>\n
- Design tutorials<\/li>\n
- Printing and color techniques<\/li>\n
- Website integration, SEO tactics, marketing strategies<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

It\u2019s the most wonderful time of the year\u2026 for making some money! To help you prepare your Shop for the holidays, we\u2019ve provide some useful tips below.<\/span><\/p>\n
Tip #1: Activate Top-Selling Accessories<\/h2>\n
Over the past three years, we\u2019ve been tracking the top-selling Christmas accessories:<\/p>\n
- \n
- Coffee\/Tea Mug (ID 31<\/a>)<\/li>\n
- Full Color Mug (ID 949<\/a>)<\/li>\n
- Adjustable Apron (ID 1186<\/a>)<\/li>\n
- Snap-back Baseball Cap (ID 803<\/a>)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
You should also consider activating our brand-new Camper Mug (ID 1313<\/a>), which has already proven to be very popular. You could also consider products like pillow case and<\/a>\u00a0smartphone cases<\/a>!<\/p>\n
When it comes to apparel, customers still tend to opt for the best-selling options, which you can explore here<\/a> and here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
Tip #2: Update Your Shop\u2019s Imagery<\/h2>\n
Everyone enjoys being in the Christmas spirit, and this includes your customers. To get them in a festive mood before they make a purchase, style your Shop so it\u2019s prepared for the holidays.<\/p>\n
First, you can change the color scheme of your Shop under General > Color scheme. Opting for a red and green theme will pair perfectly with the start page Christmas teaser, which we\u2019ve provided under Page Settings > Start Page > Teaser. You could also consider adding a Christmas-twist to your \u201cAbout the Shop\u201d section, and you could add a holiday flair to your Shop logo.<\/p>\n
You\u2019ll also want to update your imagery on your social media accounts. This includes your pictures and banners, and these images should reflect the joyous mood that\u2019s common during the holidays (specifically, sparkly\/colorful images or photos of families and friends).<\/p>\n
Unfortunately, Christmas doesn\u2019t last forever. Make sure you continue to update your Shop and profiles as the seasons change.<\/p>\n
Tip #3: Rely on Our Shop Promos<\/h2>\n
Between now and the end of the year, we\u2019ll be providing you with a number of promos that you can use in your Shop. While we\u2019re providing the discounts, it\u2019s up to you to do the promoting. Let your followers and customers know of the potential savings that will be happening over the next month or so, and continue pumping out engaging content so those individuals are always aware of the sales. This blog<\/a> post provides a thorough guide to planning your promotion plan, while this blog<\/a> adds some context and additional strategies.<\/p>\n
There are three major promotions that you should be keeping in mind as you prepare for the holidays:<\/p>\n
- \n
- Black Friday Weekend: November 23rd<\/sup> to 25th<\/sup>\n
- \n
- 15% off everything with code CYBER18<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
- Cyber Monday: November 26th<\/sup>\n
- \n
- 15% off everything AND free shipping with code CYBERSALE<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
- Christmas Promo: December 2nd<\/sup> to 4th<\/sup>\n
- \n
- Free shipping with code MERRY18<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Tip #4: Continue Being Creative<\/h2>\n
Even if there aren\u2019t ongoing promotions, there are still plenty of ways to lure customers to your Shop. These consumers are going to be hunting for gifts throughout December, and a clever marketing campaign could help to guide them directly to your products.<\/p>\n
For instance, a \u201c10 Days Until Christmas\u201d theme wouldn\u2019t only provide some brand familiarity, but it will also add a sense of urgency. Ultimately, such content is key, as it\u2019s one of the most effective ways to convince customers to make a purchase.<\/p>\n
