The business world is now online. Here we’ll teach you how to start a print-on-demand business, so you can easily enter this world.
Anyone can create a website to sell a product online. You may be wondering, but what if I don't have products to offer and don't know how to start an online store? Fortunately, print-on-demand products are here to help you build your e-commerce business.
Let’s start from the beginning.
Print-on-demand (POD) business is about selling custom products, such as t-shirts, crewneck sweatshirts, hoodies, caps, beanies, phone cases, mugs, posters, and other products with your designs on your e-commerce site.
POD is perfect if you don’t have or don’t want to acquire inventory, because you can use a platform like Shopify to easily create an online store.
Here is where Fuel shines.

Before selling any custom product, it is important to have an idea of what you want to achieve.
Here are some things that you'll want to consider:
The advantage of using POD business is that you can create all the products you want. You need a fresh and eye-catching design for your site.
With Fuel, you can upload any design. We accept your designs in PNG, JPG, SVG, or GIF formats. However, you must think about your target market, what would they like to buy?
We give you a suggested sale price for the most profitable and popular items on the market. However, you decide the exact price to put on your products.
💡 Fuel tip: Don't forget the customers when choosing this!
If you already chose to create your own Shopify print-on-demand store, you need to set up a shipping option.
First of all, remember that you are about to create a store with no inventory, so the best option is to ally with a provider. So, set your store with Fuel POD App, create all your designs, and add them to your catalog. Once a customer buys a product from your store, the rest of the process is automated. All you need to do is double-check the information!
Remember that your business will depend entirely on the quality that your provider gives you. It means that you'll have to choose the best print-on-demand sites to achieve it.
