The entire shipping system has practically run into a brick wall, and I've been fielding around 6-10 messages every day asking where a product is.  It's not hard to answer these, but they are annoying, a necessary irritation of the Christmas rush.  

In today's episode, I talk about how to deal with the customer questions, and how to manage the fact that many, many items are moving at a snails pace through the system, and yet, I'm still getting a decent number of sales every single day!

As always, you can get a free video when you sign up with my email list, and start learning how to make $100,000 a year in sales with the Print on Demand methods that I teach in my new course.

Two years ago, I bought the domain name "salesondemandshow.com" and thus, this is the second birthday of the show.  

A lot has changed since the beginning of the show, and a lot more changes are still on the horizon!  In today's episode, I talk about the future of the podcast, and a few of the big projects I'm working towards for the coming year.  

As always, I give selling tips in every episode of the show, to help you make the best decisions for your business right now.

If you are thirsting to grow your business, you should know that I teach everything I know in an expansive training program called "Print on Demand A-Z", available at a discount till the end of the year at

salesondemandshow.com/az.

This is it, the middle of the Christmas rush!  You should be seeing some sales by this time, if you have been diligent in listing your products on the platforms.  Remember, people can't buy products that don't exist, so if you are concerned that you aren't getting any sales, it's because you don't have enough listings!

Next week is the 2nd Anniversary of the Sales on Demand Show, so I will be eating a small piece of cake to celebrate that.  I'd share with all of you listeners, but it's really a very small cake, not enough to share...

I might offer one last discount on the training as a special gift, just before the end of the year.  Make sure you tune in next week!

Here we are, counting down the days to Black Friday, pushing orders out the door, and hoping that all the effort that we put in for the last 6 months is going to pay off with a nice rush of sales!

No one really knows exactly what is going to happen, except that we know the shoppers are out there!  Maybe they are "locked down" or maybe not, but they are shopping online, and you could be selling to them already!

I'm already seeing 40+ orders per day, and I'm expecting to see around 150+ per day by December.  It's going to get CRAZY, but this is where we make the big $$$!

In today's episode, I talk about your mindset.  Are you thinking big or are you thinking tiny?  

A tiny thinker can't risk spending money, they can't cope with long hard days, and they don't like learning new things.  The world is filled with these people, and most of them are wearing masks alone in their cars...

A big thinker knows that measured risk brings reward, and that saving is better than spending.  They put themselves around more successful people to try and pull themselves higher, and they dive into hard projects with energy and focus!

Which are you?

If you want to build a sustainable business that can grow 200 or 300% every single year, I can teach you!

What do new sellers do that costs them time and money?  Why are we locking down the economy AGAIN?  In today's episode, I go through this and more!

If I had a nickel every time I've heard this, I'd be retired on an island in the Bahamas.  Nevertheless, this election does indeed seem to be much more contentious than anything we've seen in the past, certainly anything I've seen in my lifetime.

The country is clearly divided, and each side believes that it holds the key to the future prosperity of the nation, and almost by proxy, the globe itself.

While I feel more inclined towards the conservative side, personally I feel that Donald Trump has failed to keep many of his important promises, the very things he ran on in 2016.  He failed to end the enormously destructive wars, and he presided over the largest federal budget deficit EVER, and that's not even counting the Pandemic spending, which has been absolutely unreal.  

The Office of the President has become a Monarchy in all but the name, with literally every word, action, and personality flaw of the person holding this office becoming exaggerated beyond comprehension.  It should really just be abolished, but that's probably not going to happen.

One of these two people is going to win the seat, and there will be some consequences, no matter who wins it!

In this episode, I talk about what I think might happen when the dust settles, not that the dust ever really settles from elections these days.  The truth is, the winner of this election really doesn't affect you as much as you might think, and you should continue to build your business regardless of these pointless (albeit entertaining) distractions!

Etsy once told me that over a quarter of the sales on their platform were customized items.  It might be even higher than that, judging by the success I've been having with customization!

A customized item is typically a template with part of a phrase that allows customers to insert their own text into it, or add an image or graphical element, or even all three.

The simplest type of customized item will just be someone's name added to the bottom or top, but even these are highly desirable items, and I have sold PLENTY of them!  

I first noticed that customized items were doing very well back in 2018, on Amazon.  I listed one customized item, which took some time, and it ended up making 85 sales over time.  That's just ONE listing!  I added several more, and they also made sales, and in 2020 I added some customizable items to Etsy for Mother and Father's Day.  These items were very very popular, and I ended up spending a lot of time sending these orders out, which was a little bit more annoying, but I've now discovered a method of shipping these orders that takes MUCH less time!

A very successful seller once told me that you could basically have a full time income with "90 highly targeted personalized listings" on Etsy.  Even if you needed twice that number of listings, it is still a very small number!  I have been seeing a dramatic increase in sales from about 20-25 listings that I've added just in the last two weeks, and I've set a goal of adding around 5 per day, along with any other non-customized listings I can manage.  In all likelihood, this could end up being almost overwhelming for me once November hits, but I have a couple of options to save myself time.

First, I will be using a program called "Orderdesk" that will handle the customer address and tracking numbers.  All I will need to do is create the design, and drop it into a folder!  

Second, I can actually hire someone to perform the artwork creation, and that will leave me free to focus on other things while the order pour in (which they have already begun to do!)  This could easily continue all year long, leaving me with a permanent income stream where most of the work is done by other people.  

In today's episode, I talk about 5 specific things you need to know about customization to get started!  Have a listen, and don't forget that I do teach all of these things in tremendous detail in my training program, which is still available right here. 

In today's episode, I give away a discount code that will get you $200 off the full price of this training.

Even though I am now full time working from home, I still have to manage my time quite carefully.  In fact, I need to be even more rigorous than ever before, since my livelihood now depends on my productivity!

Well, the dog and pony show that is 2020 continues without interruption, but while the rest of the world is debating which of the old senile men to elect as Supreme Chancellor of the World, you and I can actually improve our lives by making and selling products that people want to buy!

Today, I talk about how I'm going to dominate Amazon in 2020, and to be honest, there isn't a lot of time left to get moving on this.  If you have been sitting on the fence about selling online, or adding Amazon to your selling platforms, don't hesitate even one more second!  There is a lot of money to be made this quarter, and you could be a part of the elite group of people who will end 2020 with MORE money than you started with!

Find out how to do this, and more in my training program, POD A-Z, which you can join for less than $200 with the special discount code at
