I love the integration that you have with Etsy. It is truly a time-saver for me and has truly helped my business grow from a few thousand dollars a year to over 100k in sales this year. Also, it was a piece of cake to set up, and maintaining it is one of the easiest parts of my side-hustle.

Print-on-demand gave me a lot of room to experiment with different products and different designs. A big part of this business is being experimental and trying different things, and print-on-demand allows me to do that without a lot of the risks that maybe buying upfront would.
