Choosing print-on-demand
Print-on-demand (or POD for short) is the sweet spot of ecommerce fulfillment.
Get all of the credit and profit without the trouble of:
- Juggling different suppliers and fulfillment locations
- Spending money on equipment and production employees
- Doing the actual work of printing, packing, and shipping
Companies like Printful and Spring (previously Teespring) do all of these and more.
Evaluating store options
When starting an online business, you should carefully research potential ecommerce platforms and marketplaces to host your store. Look into pricing details, features, policies, service quality, and customer reviews.
After finding the best ecommerce solution for your company, compare Printful integrations and Spring integrations to see if you can connect your store to the POD supplier.
