My Problems with Teechip Today October 25, 2018.

Like I said before, so far I have really enjoyed designing shirts to sell through Teechip.  Having said that, I am running into some issues that need to be addressed.  I bought my own domain name through Teechip but as of today, I would not recommend you do that.  It cost me $50 USD and so far I have just had problems with it.

There are quite a few glitches that need to be addressed and I have spent two days trying to get in touch with someone.  So, that is another problem.  Currently, it is very hard to get in touch with their customer service if you have an issue.  I just went ahead and ordered a couple shirts so that I could tell how efficient Teechip is when it comes to fulfilling orders and their print quality.

If they have problems doing this, I am probably going to be gone and I will start over with another tee shirt company.  The reason I am telling you this is so that you can avoid paying out money and save you lots of time and frustration.

I figured out that I lost a lot of my money when I advertised my storefront because of the top links on the page.  People were clicking on those links and going into another area of the Teechip store before probably even browsing my items.  That is where my paid clicks went.  I do not think that is fair to the storefront owner and is another issue that I don't like.  However, maybe in the long run that could actually benefit my storefront as my shirts will appear when people are searching for what they want at other storefronts.

So far I am undecided as to if this is a worthwhile venture.  If you decide to do it before I am done reviewing them, do not pay for your own domain until they work out the bugs.  You can get started for free and that is how most people do it I bet.  I am going to be making a video soon showing you the problems with my store on the Teechip domain.  I really do think they are trying to have a great system and they just need to work out the kinks.  I will let you know in a future post when the domain problems have been addressed.  If not, I'm out 50 bucks and won't do it again next year.

I have a really exciting opportunity to present to you in just a couple of months.  I have been waiting several years for this to come up and I can't wait to let you in on it.  I will tell you this about it.  It is not a pyramid scheme, MLM, or some other dishonest money making system.  This is an affiliate program that is going to make us a lot of money.  I am very familiar with the website designer's past projects and he gets an A plus.  So be sure and subscribe for this upcoming opportunity. Do me a favor and comment below if you are interested and you will be the first to know about it.

You will be able to do it anywhere, in any country, and it is 100% legit.  👍

Stay tuned for my next post on Teechip.  It might be awhile since I am waiting to have shirts delivered so I might post something else in between.

Teechip Campaign 4 Results

So I had a graphic designer design my latest graphic and I am very pleased with it.  I advertised it again on Facebook and had very poor results.  The ad was very targeted and either the people did not like the shirt or they just were not in a buying mood.

Nevertheless, today is October 25th and I still have no tee shirt sales.  I have decided to take a different approach with this business.  I will order shirts that have my designs on them and see if I can sell the physical product on eBay, Amazon, and Facebook groups.  If this does not work, I can always go to flea markets and see what I can get for them.  I like to go to flea markets to find items to sell on eBay so I have no problem doing this.

So today I am not going to advertise but I did place an order.  I am very pleased with Teechips order process.  It is simple, quick, and efficient.  Soon I will be able to comment concerning the product quality.

Everybody buys tee shirts but it is not a "must have now" item.  People will substitute for price and you have to make a really great design to catch your markets attention.  Maybe all of my designs sucked so far and nobody wants them.  That is why I decided to sell them myself.  I will use Teechip as my screen printer for now until my sales can justify paying for advertising.

I am also going to put more emphasis on my Facebook Tee shirt page, TiggsDiggs and boost some posts to get some likes.  I am a basic graphic designer so I can also make a few bucks doing this.  When I design hot selling shirts, I am going to start an affiliate program for individuals that would like to make money helping me sell my tee shirts.

I still have no problems with the Teechip tee shirt program.  I will keep you informed on such things as sales through their website (passive) and other things that may crop up over time.  Stay tuned to see if this is a profitable venture or if I recommend staying away from it.  It is still too early for me to tell but I will know within the next month or so.

The main problem appears to be driving enough traffic to my storefront to make any sales.  So what I am going to do is start making YouTube videos of my products and market that way also.

Currently, these are my results:  $50 for the website set-up (which you do not need), plus roughly $60 in Facebook ads that flopped.  I ordered two shirts today for another $18 and will see if I can make money on them.  I will be posting my progress soon.  I think that by now a lot of people are advertising Tee shirts and most people just don't click on the ads.

I learned a long time ago when it comes to Internet Marketing that it is much better to have a system in place that people can search for and find, then blasting ads at them.  People do not want to quit what they are doing to hop over to some ad.  That is mostly the truth.  And, my ad campaigns with the tee shirts once again verified that.

Anyway, if you want to see my designs and products that I offer, you can go to my teechip store TiggsDiggs or like my page on Facebook @TiggsDiggs.
