Anyone out here sell t shirts on teespring and make any money off it? All you do is upload a design and they produce the shirts for you once someone orders. Their cost for the shirt is around $11 so not a bad deal for someone starting out. I made a couple shirts last night, but need to start marketing them. Just curious if anyone else has done this as a side hustle?

Just a quick update I reached out a designer on fiverr.com and got a professional looking design for $5. I gave the designer the idea for what I was looking for and he even did a couple revisions. Very quick process. I uploaded the design to teespring and the shirts are now available. Biggest thing to work on now is marketing. Getting the shirts on the site is fairly easy even without a design background.
I've looked into it before but never pulled the trigger. As Bayoumonkey said, marketing is the tough part (you and only thousands [millions?] of others are marketing apparel) - it won't be cheap. But still nice that you don't need to carry inventory.
One thing I was curious about was whether you can create branded apparel on there?
Not sure exactly what you mean, but the platform isn't great at letting you design things other than simple words on a t shirt. Anything really branded would have to be created outside the program.
This marketing stuff is proving to be quite challenging. I got my second design from Fiverr for $5 again and have been focused on marketing the second design instead of the first design I got last week.
I have been using twitter & reddit with no luck thus far, but that is to be expected from what I can gather researching successful campaigns. Sounds like the real way to market the shirts is with paid FB ads, which I plan to try to put together this weekend.
My expectations are low. I only have $12 invested (two $5 designs + $2 in processing fees) so if it ends up failing no big deal.
Any update on how it has gone?
