Designs on T-shirts and goods
Publishing your designs on Redbubble or Spreadshirt, which print and ship T-shirts, mugs and posters for each order.
How to get started
- Open a free artist account on Redbubble (redbubble.com) or a designer account on Spreadshirt (spreadshirt.fr).
- Upload your designs in high resolution and choose the products they appear on.
- Write precise titles and keywords (theme, humour, job, hobby).
- Share your designs on your social networks: the platform alone brings few sales at first.
Skills needed
- Creative
Tools and equipment needed
- Computer
Good tips
- Niche themes (a job, a sport, an animal) sell better than general designs.
- Publish regularly: a catalogue of several dozen designs sells more than a single one.
Watch out for
- You only get a small share per sale (artist margin on Redbubble, design price on Spreadshirt).
- Never use brands, characters or celebrities: designs are removed and the account can be closed.
