How Can I Use Print on Demand in My Creative Business?

Welcome to the second season of Lissa Talks Print on Demand! A professional photographer since 2011 and a print on demand shop owner since 2022, I have so much to share with you!

Today, we are talking all about using print on demand as a way to expand your creative business. Here's a few things we'll address!

  • More About My Print on Demand Background
  • What Kind of Items Would You Like to See Your Work On?
  • Focus on Your Designs + Your Art
  • It's Okay if Your Designs Come in Waves!
  • Building a Print on Demand Shop is Going to Take Time
  • Remember! There's No One Right Way to Do Anything


Want to Know This Episode in One Quote? You Know I've Always Got You!

"Often, we see print on demand recommended as a side hustle or a way to leave your desk job. What if you want something different? As a longtime photographer, I knew two things:


  1. I Wanted to Diversify My Income
  2. I Didn’t Want to Stop Shooting


Yes! I wanted to diversify but I also didn’t want to leave my career. While I’ve never had a traditional desk job, leaving my job was never something I wanted. Instead, I wanted to supplement my income in a different way. Personally, I set out to design a few photographer shirts. Instead, I ended up with two enormous Etsy shops. And it’s been fantastic! I feel so strongly that any creative - a designer, a painter, an illustrator, a photographer, a writer - can take print on demand and use it an a way to fit into their career. 

Maybe for one person that’s creating tote bags with your paintings. Maybe for another it’s a huge shop full of items with witty phrases. For me, it’s a bunch of fun collages that spiraled into a brand new genre of photography. Remember, there’s no one right way to do anything. And the way print on demand is set up? The sky is really the limit!"
