Tostadora Print on Demand Tutorial (UNDERRATED)

You should start selling on this side I’ll also go over what actually sells on there from my experience I’ll show you how to open a new store how to upload your designs and an option to automate the entire upload process to save yourself a lot of time

So why should he actually start selling or toss the drawer then I think one of the big reasons to consider this site is that there is a lack of competition which is very rare So if we look at a very massive print-on amount Niche anime on Redbubble and search for it on there

Then it gets 921 000 results obviously very oversaturated Niche if we type in the same search term on tostadora then we get 20 000 results back for anime now 20 000 is still a really big Niche but that just gives you an idea that a supermassive Niche on

Redbubble or Amazon could be a lot smaller on tostadora another example for a smaller Niche that still has a lot of potential would be skateboarding so on Redbubble we get 30 000 results for this search term however on tostadora there’s only 1800 search results for the term skateboarding so definitely easier to

Rank high or rank on the first page in a lot of these Evergreen niches which are hard to join on another platform like Redbubble this is I believe how I’ve managed to get a lot of sales in the gaming Niche on tostadora whilst on sites like Amazon and Redbubble I barely

Ever sell gaming designs another good reason to start selling a tostadora is that it’s actually English for toaster and that is just the best benefit of this website now all jokes aside they’ve got a funny name it’s free to start we don’t have to apply for a shoppie there

So very straightforward the support team is really really good so I’ve had issues in the past where my payouts didn’t really match the royalty report and they were really good at resolving that issue and paying me the difference then the uploading is fairly easy and straightforward the interface is quite

Old-fashioned not very modern however it is fairly quick and straightforward actually uploading designs which is a big benefit and they’ve got a great royalty structure you can change the prices of your products and it’s quite easy to get a four to five dollar royalty per sale on t-shirts which is

Also not always a given with other print-on-demand platforms oftentimes they’ve got really low royalties per sale and their support team isn’t really the greatest so those are two massive benefits of tostadoro foreign first of all I’ll go into the products then into the types of designs when I

Look through my sales history of some of my better performing shops than it is usually men’s t-shirts that sell best after that we also get some women’s and kids clothing hoodies so quite well and I occasionally get a poster sale too there is other Home related products as

Well but it’s mainly clothing that seems to sell for me personally in terms of the design Styles I have noticed that vintage sunsets can do quite well with and without text and scalable designs can do decently well so Evergreen scalables as well as simple text designs so very basic text print and demand

Designs the requirements here and like extreme that you don’t have to be very artistic just the very straightforward stuff that you often see selling well on Amazon to be honest can also do really well here on tostadoro so to start selling your designs on tostadora head

To their home page which I will link in the description of this video and a quick tip here is to scroll down on the home page of any printer demand platform really to get an idea as to what design Styles work really well on this platform because what they’re advertising on the

Home page is typically what sells really well so we see a lot of clothing a lot of t-shirts a lot of retro fonts retro color schemes there’s some more down here birthday theme designs simple text stuff just mixed with a graphic I’ve got a sort of groovy design style right here

So this gives you a good idea in terms of what tostadora sells and what they wanted to upload obviously ignore the Branded stuff like we’ve got Star Wars we’ve got Breaking Bad don’t copy any of those please but I think you get the idea in terms of what styles can do well

Right here on tostadoro so to open your first store head over to sell your designs right here in the menu and then click on start selling and this is where you’ll need to enter your email address create a password and then accept their terms to create your free

Account once that’s done tostadora will ask you to create a shop or the link of your shop essentially and a few things to note here tostadora shops have a limit in terms of how many products you can upload to them so the initial limit is 750 to my knowledge and then after a

Few weeks it jumps up to 2 000 maximum products now what I tend to do is open separate shops for the separate niches that I’m selling in so I will have a gaming shop an anime shop a skateboarding shop and that way it’s sort of separated out and if I ever hit

The limit that’s not a problem or I’m less likely to hit the limit that way but you can also do General stores and have them mixed just be aware of that When selecting the shop names Etc because if you make Niche specific shops you would want to include some of the

Niche keywords in the link in the title Etc so in this case let’s open a skateboarding shop right here let’s call it skater underscore gifts hit continue sometimes it might say that the link is taken but then just you know change it about a little bit and then you have to

Enter the title description Etc so let’s put skater gifts up here now you don’t have to be too creative by the way I don’t think too many people will actually read through all of this information before buying here’s a quick description so we’ve got that filled in

As well and we can upload a main Banner image in shop logo to sort of make your shop look more professional and make it more likely that tostadora might feature it at some point and sort of push it more but you don’t have to like I’ve got

Many many different shops on tostadora I don’t always select a banner image in a shop logo you can also enter your City Country and some Social Links down here if you have them make sure that the shop is set to active so it actually gets shown in the marketplace and then you

Can decide whether you want to get email notification when someone places a new order and once you’re done with this step click continue and now it’s time to add our first design to this so click on our design right here choose it from your device then accept the terms and hit upload now

This is going to take a few seconds if you want to add another design to the shop you would have to click this dark black button again so there we go now change the background color right here to whatever matches Your Design so in my case it’s optimized for dark t-shirts

And as you can see right there it’s now updated the thumbnail image now you want to create a design name right here so let’s call this skate sunset skateboarding gift and save this title right here and then you want to add some tags to this as

Well there’s a limit of 10 and you also have an information button right here with some extra tips for you so I’m just quickly going to fill this out and then once you’re done hit create item and that’s going to bring up essentially the product catalog of tostadora where first

Of all we’ve got the men’s premium t-shirt as the default product and you can change the thumbnail color right here so I usually like to select black for these and you can also resize or reposition the design if you want to there’s a button right here to Center

The design on this side and yeah it says 1999 plus royalties this is what gets configured in The Next Step so I’m going to mention that in a bit this part of the process is just selecting different products to sell the design on so now that this is done let’s click create

Then we can move on to another product so let’s go to select product right here and as you can see you’ve got different categories of women’s pajamas hoodies kits Etc you’ve got wall art as well if you want to try out posters and let’s go ahead and select the woman’s t-shirt

Right here let’s just take this standard one change this while it’s already selected black as default that’s good so we can go ahead and click create for this continue and let’s do a kids t-shirt as well now one thing to mention here is that you don’t have to create

All of these products that will take way too long let’s say you were creating just a men’s t-shirt then in the search results on tostadora you will be found in the in the clothing category and when someone clicks onto your listing onto your design then all of the other

Products will also be available they can still choose them even if you haven’t pre-configured them here however in your shop like in the actual store you will only be seeing the products that you’ve added through this uploader but most people will be will be looking at your stuff through the actual search results

What I’m trying to say basically is you don’t have to go through and select all of these products individually as long as you add like per category that is going to be good enough to be found in Surge all the other products will still be available for purchase it’s just that

Your shop won’t fill up as quickly and won’t be as populated so once you’re done selecting and configuring all of the products right here click out of this window with the X in the top right corner and then it’s going to open up the separate listings and this is where

You essentially configure the price for each one of these it’s set to the default base price where you would make zero royalty right so you have to add something on top of this price in this case for the kids t-shirt let’s make this let’s say 20.99 and hit save then

It’s going to you know in European countries when it’s being shown in Euros it’ll probably show below 20 euros I love the sales on tostadora come from Spain by the way at least that’s what my experience says when a sale happens you can actually see the buyer’s location or

The city that they’ve purchased from and also their name and it does seem to be a lot of you know Barcelona Madrid Spanish off so I think your main target audience is going to be European but you can also get sales in the USA so next one women’s

T-shirt and the men’s t-shirt those I tend to prize around the 22 23 Mark right here and make sure to always hit save for it to actually carry that price over if you want to add more items you can click on this button you would have

To go ahead and select your design again which is saved in this section right here so you can click on your design it’ll be placed on any product again that you choose or if you want to add a completely new design then you have to head over to manage designs right here

And click add to bring up our original window where you choose the file and essentially you’re going to have a list of different designs in your shop where you can create multiple items per design to manage the individual items and the prices you can head back to manage items

Right here in the menu and this is what will open up if you want to open your store and take a look at it you can select your store from the drop down right here and then click this little symbol to open it up on the toaster Laura page so we’ve got

Three new items right here as you can see that looks pretty cool and now if anyone were to open this up then you can scroll down as you can see all of the other products are there too it’s just that they don’t show up in search results or on your store Page originally

You have to open up the design to get all of these other options so I hope that makes sense it’s a bit confusing this system with tostadora but you do definitely get used to it a few more things to note on the left hand side you’ve got sales and royalties this tab

You can essentially look through your sales and royalties on a monthly basis and what I like to use is the last 30 days here you will see the recent orders based on which store you have selected so that way you can tell which designs have been selling and how many or how

Much money you’ve made per sale you can also click on best selling designs to get a list of your best sellers if you wanted to and one thing to note with the royalty payouts is that with tostadora they actually work on a quarterly basis so usually you get paid monthly but here

For q1 which is is it January to match you would get paid in April for all of those sales same with Q4 October November December those sales won’t be paid out until the middle of January that’s one thing that was a bit confusing to me at first but it’s just a

Slightly different system here with tostadora but it’s not bad because then you get a bit of a bigger payout and it feels like you’ve been doing better on the platform and because it sort of gets saved up over three months so um I hope that’s given you a good overview of the

Dashboard right here and you would probably have to submit some bank and tax information as well to get paid which is all in the top row right here of these many items so make sure to check that out as well if you want to add a new store you’ve got this link at

The bottom that will bring you back to this step right here where you have to insert a link accept the terms and then enter the title and description so this next step is optional but I still wanted to mention it because it can save you massive amounts of time if

You want to automate your uploads to tosadora then flying upload has got you covered and I do recommend this especially if you’ve got a lot of designs to go through because rather than sit there and tediously upload everything one after after another you could be creating new designs you could

Be finding new niches and do way more productive stuff instead so flying upload will be linked in the description I’ve also got a custom coupon or discount code that you can use if you want to get some discount they do have a free version as well if you want to test

It outburst and essentially once the launcher opens up you want to select the Pod upload tool right here then you need to head to the edit window where we’re going to configure our listings for the designs so let me drag and drop a bunch of skating designs into here so they’re

Going to open up in a list like this you can flick through you can see the preview on the right hand side side you can then also configure the title description tags Etc so let’s go ahead and enable all the different types first of all for men women and youth this is

So you can you know if you’ve got an adult humor design or something like that you can untick the youth option for example if you’ve got designs that are optimized for white you can also change that over here but in this case black works fine let’s go ahead and put a

Title description and tags in here and then I will get back to you and show you some some extra time saving features for creating the other listings so here we go the listing is filled out if you’re wondering how I found a lot of these related keywords I used merch Titans

Free Redbubble tag generator and which always helps me out a ton with writing these listings once you’re done you’ve got this all filled in you might notice that the other listings are still blank and a quick way to fix that is having the populated listing selected right

Here then heading to Features bulk copy clicking OK and yes to continue this and now all of these have been filled in with the same data now you don’t want them to all have the exact same data ideally and you will want to make changes a bit to the title and

Description swap out some keywords to hopefully Target some different people as well so if I wanted to make a change here to the title and maybe you could do something like vintage skating sunset for let’s let’s try a longboard I love it something like this and then you can

Copy the title and as you can see my description says design titled and so I’m going to swap this part out as well and once you’ve done that for the other listings a quick tip for the tags is you can head to features and then click

Shuffle all tags to place them in a different order essentially to once again perhaps be found in different search results and to also not be too spammy if you’ve got like hundreds of designs with the same tags then shuffling them might help you out and

The last tip I wanted to give you is in the features tab right here there’s also a bulk file name as title function so if you’ve got a long list of designs that have all been titled with the primary keywords you could click that button right here to quickly have a title for

Each design instantly that can be really really helpful if your file naming is on point it isn’t for these designs right here for me so that wouldn’t work but nevertheless now that all of these have been populated with listing data we can now go ahead and upload them to tosudora

And all of the other marketplaces that are available on flying upload you can see them by clicking on this back arrow right here and then clicking on upload as you can see there’s various different platforms you can now upload your designs to and the data is stored on

Your device for the listing which is really handy because anytime you want that listing data back you can just drag and drop the designs into this edit window and it will show back up so you don’t have to start from scratch so before you can start uploading to

Tostadora you need to configure some settings first for the platform itself but those settings you only really have to configure once and then you can leave them alone for the most part so head into the options tab go to settings then to templates next and choose tostadora

From this drop down right here this is where you choose which store you’re uploading to so this is the link of the store that we have to put in here in my case that was a relief skater underscore gift in your case just go back to

Sosadoria and copy and paste the link if you want to the marketplaces I’ve got all of them enabled right here then the royalty you can choose so minus set to five dollars by default I usually do five or four dollars for the royalty if you’re just starting out maybe you can

Price lower to make it easier to get a sale and then if something does get a sale you can still bump up the price later on that is a strategy that is definitely feasible and then we’ve got all of the different product types so I’ve got most of them enabled here and

We don’t have to do that as I mentioned but it helps with more products showing up in Search and on your store Page now if you do have a lot of designs and you don’t want your store to fill up too quickly then select less products right

Here because as I mentioned there’s a limit of 750 products per store and it takes a few weeks for that to be bumped up to 2000 Max products not designs products so if you’re uploading it’s like 20 products right here per design sometimes the stores can fill up very

Quickly so be aware of that and yeah once you’re done selecting everything in here hit save and then you can go ahead and click Start for your tostadora upload you might have to log into your store first for the upload to start but you can also make that process automated

Right here in the options tab under settings there is an auto Auto login Tab and we can essentially enter the login details for all of your platforms and then flying upload will do that step automatically so you don’t have to log in every single time you start and

Upload I do that and it’s been helping me a lot I would like to press start right now and show you how this how this actually looks in action but I think it’s going to log into my actual tostadora store and show off my designs

And Shop names so I’m not going to do that now but if you hit start it will open the window and do the entire process for you automatically in the background you can create designs meanwhile you can do research or whatever you want watch a YouTube video

Whilst flying upload is doing all of the uploading for you and please bear in mind if you do want to get a flying upload subscription please use my code Philippines because that will actually get you quite a lot of discount and it will also help me out

In return so I’d greatly appreciate that you get it monthly or annually there’s various different plans to suit everyone’s budget I was using the top plan right there with all the platforms unlocked but there’s also a beginner option where I think my discount code doesn’t work but with the beginner

Option you can just select One Singular platform like tostador for example and start testing it that way or just get the completely free version I’m not sure where the link to that is but there is definitely a free version that lets you try this out and there’s a 14 day money

Back guarantee so again if you don’t like it after a while it is quite a difficult tool to learn initially so if you can’t get used to it in the first two weeks you can also get your money back if that’s required here’s the free

Version by the way you can sign up to it there download the tool and it will give you a limited amount of uploads per month I think with the free version if this is the first time you’ve heard about flying or or you’re just unsure whether it’s worth it or not make sure
