00:00.050 --> 00:05.630
So, as I just said at the end of the last lecture in this lecture, we're going to install an app called

00:05.630 --> 00:06.500
Printify.

00:06.530 --> 00:08.210
So let's click on apps.

00:08.210 --> 00:14.300
And then in the search bar type in Printify where you might see it come up in the list here.

00:14.300 --> 00:18.830
Or perhaps you'll need to go and search for it directly on the App Store, but either way, just click

00:18.830 --> 00:24.680
on one of the results, which will take you to the home page for the Printify Print on Demand app,

00:24.890 --> 00:31.490
where you can see straight away that this is a very well respected app with almost 7000 reviews at the

00:31.490 --> 00:32.720
time of recording.

00:32.720 --> 00:39.440
And if I scroll down right to the bottom here, you can see that this app has been around for a very

00:39.440 --> 00:40.370
long time.

00:40.400 --> 00:40.880
Okay.

00:40.880 --> 00:43.460
So let's go ahead and actually install this.

00:43.460 --> 00:48.320
So of course scrolling back up to the top and clicking on the install button.

00:48.320 --> 00:50.270
And then on the install button.

00:50.270 --> 00:54.350
Once again the first thing I'll need to do is to sign up.

00:54.350 --> 00:59.630
So I'll put in my email which of course is info at BestBuy bargains.com.

00:59.630 --> 01:04.610
I'll then go ahead and select a password and then click on Sign up.

01:04.970 --> 01:07.490
It then presents me with a small questionnaire.

01:07.520 --> 01:10.700
Now don't worry if the questionnaire doesn't exactly look like this.

01:10.730 --> 01:12.500
It's going to change from time to time.

01:12.500 --> 01:18.110
And also it's really not that important because at the end of the day, it's simply for their internal

01:18.110 --> 01:19.400
marketing purposes.

01:19.400 --> 01:22.220
But nevertheless let's go through this process.

01:22.220 --> 01:24.140
So as you can see it says welcome.

01:24.140 --> 01:25.700
What brings you to Printify.

01:25.730 --> 01:29.660
So let me just select the first one, click on next.

01:29.660 --> 01:32.480
Then for what best describes you.

01:32.510 --> 01:38.060
Well of course we're building a business so I will select that click on next once again.

01:38.060 --> 01:43.490
Then in terms of what we already have experience with I'll just select I'm just starting out.

01:43.490 --> 01:45.020
You might want to click others.

01:45.020 --> 01:47.600
And then for where I would like to sell.

01:47.600 --> 01:50.930
Well ultimately of course we want to sell globally.

01:50.930 --> 01:53.750
So I'll check this box click on next.

01:53.750 --> 01:57.670
And then to the final question where it says how did you hear about us?

01:57.700 --> 02:05.320
Well, I suggest you simply click on Shopify and then on the complete button bringing you to the Printify

02:05.350 --> 02:06.520
app itself.

02:06.520 --> 02:11.080
Now, in this lecture, and in order for you to learn everything that you need to know in order to get

02:11.080 --> 02:18.130
started with Printify, I'm going to focus primarily on the catalog and my products because as you'll

02:18.130 --> 02:23.470
see in a minute, we're actually going to create our very first product and add it to the store.

02:23.470 --> 02:29.530
And then later on in the course, I'll show you what happens when somebody buys that product from your

02:29.530 --> 02:33.610
store and therefore how you go about actually making the order.

02:33.610 --> 02:36.190
And so let's get started with the catalog.

02:36.190 --> 02:41.170
So going up to the catalog I'll click on this little arrow where you can immediately see that there's

02:41.170 --> 02:46.810
a fantastic range of products to choose from, allowing you to create your completely unique design.

02:46.810 --> 02:51.400
And so that's what I'm going to do, because I'm going to create a t shirt.

02:51.400 --> 02:56.250
And on that t shirt, I'm going to put the logo for Best Bark Barque bargains.

02:56.280 --> 03:00.630
A completely unique design that also helps me build my brand.

03:00.660 --> 03:05.760
Now, the process that I'm going to show you is more or less the same for any product that you might

03:05.760 --> 03:11.400
want to create with Printify, meaning that once you understand how to create one product, it's really

03:11.400 --> 03:14.580
simple to create any other products that you may wish.

03:14.610 --> 03:16.290
Okay, so let's get started.

03:16.290 --> 03:23.490
So under men's clothing I'm going to click on t shirts where there's a massive range of t shirt types

03:23.490 --> 03:24.510
to choose from.

03:24.510 --> 03:30.390
But just to keep things simple, I'm going to take this first one here, the unisex heavy cotton T.

03:30.420 --> 03:35.550
So I will click on this where it first gives me more details about the product itself.

03:35.550 --> 03:42.090
But crucially, I want to draw your attention to this part down here where it says choose a provider

03:42.090 --> 03:43.410
to start designing.

03:43.410 --> 03:47.490
And as you can see, there are absolutely loads of providers.

03:47.490 --> 03:51.840
So how do we go about choosing the best provider for our business?

03:51.870 --> 03:58.660
Well, good news because first of all, Printify makes this easy by sorting by their printify ranking,

03:58.660 --> 04:04.450
and so based on longevity and overall customer feedback and satisfaction, you're always going to see

04:04.450 --> 04:06.070
the best providers first.

04:06.070 --> 04:11.710
But then as you go down through the list where the overall ranking is going to drop due to the fact

04:11.710 --> 04:17.860
that it's sorted by popularity, just ensure that whatever provider you choose has a minimum ranking

04:17.860 --> 04:18.790
of eight.

04:18.790 --> 04:23.950
So now that you know how to easily select a reliable provider, the next thing you're going to want

04:23.950 --> 04:26.860
to pay attention to are the shipping times.

04:26.860 --> 04:32.950
And here, to ensure the best shipping times, you're going to want to choose a provider where the majority

04:32.950 --> 04:35.200
of your customers are going to be based.

04:35.200 --> 04:41.200
And so just to illustrate that if I take this first one, opt on demand, which is based in Europe,

04:41.200 --> 04:47.320
and then click on Provider Info and go to shipping, you can see first of all, that shipping to the

04:47.320 --> 04:51.010
United States is going to take around 5 to 15 days.

04:51.010 --> 04:56.570
But for customers in Germany and the Czech Republic, which is in fact where this provider is based.

04:56.600 --> 04:59.780
The delivery time could be as little as 1 or 2 days.

04:59.780 --> 05:04.460
And then as I scroll down further, all other European countries 5 to 8.

05:04.490 --> 05:06.320
Ireland 5 to 15.

05:06.320 --> 05:10.820
And then the same for the United Kingdom, Northern Europe and Canada.

05:10.820 --> 05:17.390
But for Australia it could be up to 30 days, or indeed for any other country in the rest of the world.

05:17.390 --> 05:24.290
So I hope you can clearly see why shipping times play a very important role in selecting your provider.

05:24.320 --> 05:28.880
Now, you already know that anything under 15 days generally is acceptable.

05:28.880 --> 05:35.150
Meaning in this example, if the majority of my customers were going to be in the United States and

05:35.150 --> 05:37.760
Europe, then this would be a great provider.

05:37.760 --> 05:42.890
But let's just imagine that instead, all of my customers are going to be in the United States, in

05:42.890 --> 05:48.830
which case it would be much better to choose a provider that's also based in the United States, because

05:48.830 --> 05:54.530
as you're going to see, the delivery times are going to be way shorter than the 5 to 15 business days

05:54.530 --> 05:55.400
offered here.

05:55.400 --> 05:56.570
So let me show you that.

05:56.570 --> 06:02.690
Let's come out of here and then scroll down a bit further where you can see this category.

06:02.690 --> 06:04.730
Other providers outside of Europe.

06:04.730 --> 06:08.780
And this first one here, monster Digital is based in the US.

06:08.780 --> 06:14.960
And so now when I click on Provider Info and go to shipping, suddenly my delivery times, my shipping

06:14.990 --> 06:17.150
times are massively reduced.

06:17.150 --> 06:23.060
And so just for demonstration purposes, I'm going to go ahead and actually choose Monster Digital for

06:23.060 --> 06:23.900
my provider.

06:23.900 --> 06:29.120
So coming out of here, I can now click on the start Designing button.

06:29.120 --> 06:35.780
And that takes us to the fun part, because using this editor I can actually design my product.

06:35.780 --> 06:40.430
And so in this example I can actually add my logo to the T-shirt.

06:40.430 --> 06:45.560
But just because this lecture is in danger of getting really quite long, I'm actually going to divide

06:45.560 --> 06:47.210
it into two parts.

06:47.210 --> 06:50.060
So I'll see you in a moment in part two.
