Today – How to start your own online shop

 

Have you ever wondered how to start your own online shop?

I co- wrote a book last year called Create Your Own Happy which was published by Harper Collins and has been a success.and I have been considering ever since  then creating some products to go along side it.

 

How to start your own online shop

Have you heard of printful.com

I have been browsing Printful to explore drop- shipping products on demand. I do not have the time or space or inclination to store products here and so drop shipping (where they do it for you) would be a huge benefit to me. I also am a pretty risk-averse person and the thought of outlaying a lump sum to have items manufactured scares me a little, I have to say!

I absolutely love how you can generate mock-up images of the products you want to create and they really are lovely products. Here are a couple of ideas I have been playing with so far. I love this rose gold bracelet and it would be such a lovely reminder of central message form our book that you create you’re own happy.

 

 

Printful is a great way to start your own business and become your own boss with low risk and without investing money in expensive printing equipment, storage, or inventory.

 

And how about this for the kids who have read our book and want to be happiness ambassadors

 

Aren’t they great.?Products can be shipped to the UK  and prices are available in US dollars or Euros.  The product quality looks great and to date, they have shipped more than  11 million products so far. Products are printed and shipped on demand, under your brand so it totally is your business you are representing.

 

So the shipping and storage are sorted, products are designed by you and only printed to order. The designing bit is super simple too and they have clip art you can use or you can upload your images. You don’t have to outlay any money and they work with a multitude of e-commerce platforms which you can easily pop onto your website.

It’s all very simple and really what a very convenient way for you to earn money from home. You can do your designing. launch your platform and just wait for your orders to come ion in,

The actual products available for you to design from include everything from men´s and women clothing to tote bags and pillow cases and flip flops! It’s great and a really smart way to launch your own business from home with low risk.

You really can be your own boss
