Anybody here doing Print on Demand? or thinking about it?
Nation03:
My main question on this topic - Is this one of those adapt or be left behind situations? The few stores I've run have been a PITA. I don't like doing fulfillment. It's too time consuming for smaller shops with less employees IMO and I don't want to expand just for POD. I've also run into issues with clients not telling me how much they'd like to make per shirt so I'm left to my own guess and then when it comes time to pay commission to the client, they want more money all of the sudden. This is definitely one of those things I'd also like to pay to learn more about since I'm so green to this style of business. It's a completely different beast. If trade shows are done for another year or so, someone should do an online course or something lol. I'd pay for it.

I am taking a different approach for dealing with clients. Instead of paying them out we are starting to bill them monthly. We are not doing the printavo merch anymore or ordermygear. Instead we are just connecting to customers existing stores with our shipstation. Anytime an order sells we receive the info and ship.
We are working out a tiered system for pricing that they can reference on pricing an all customers will have an upfront charge they pay to get started. this weeds out some people and also starts of the store with merch.
It's a work in progress. I am shooting to be ready for spring.

I'm looking into this as well but on a smaller level, the DTF looks to be promising to get those 1 to 12 shirt orders with high colors in and out fast.

so here's a question, what is your definition of Print on Demand? How do you see the process going?
