Their products are great, and they integrate seemlesy into Squarespace. Also orders are turnkey unlike Printify who makes you jump through hoops to get your order into production.
Shipping isn't quick which is frustrating for some customers who are all used to Amazon shipping now.
We use Printful for merch to rep our nonprofit.
I have been using Printful everyday for 4 years. Printful has several international locations to help your customers around the world get their products. They make it easy for you to start your own business without having to spend any money! It only takes a few simple clicks to sync it with your store. The customer service is absolutely wonderful. I have always spoken to a kind and patient person about my concerns.
I don't have anything about Printful that I dislike. I do, however, wish they made enamel pins.
I am able to create stickers, mugs and other products on demand without having to use a warehouse, carry stock or spend any money.
The things I find the most helpful when it comes to Printful. Is that they have a big selection of items to sell as merch. So sometimes it's hard to pick just one.
A few things I dislike about printful is there high shipping fees. And standards for buying in bulk. As well as no free shipping for in Canada and only the US. Which I find completely unfair.
They are helping me with printing and creating my metch with the designs and layouts I give them.
Printful offers a remarkably user-friendly and intuitive interface. The range of products available for selection is abundant, and their quality is exceptional. I particularly enjoy the flexibility of choosing the brand I wish to sell. Additionally, I value the convenience of utilizing other platforms for designing or leveraging Printful's existing template designs. However, my absolute favorite aspect is the branding component, which allows for the inclusion of personalized inserts bearing my own brand, adding a wonderful finishing touch.
While there are a couple of minor areas for improvement, they are by no means dealbreakers. One suggestion I have is enhancing the "saved template" feature to retain the settings applied during the design process. It can be a tad frustrating having to repeatedly modify identical wording.
Printful effectively addresses the typical expenses and logistical challenges that arise when launching a business and acquiring the necessary materials. By leveraging Printful, small and/or emerging business owners can save valuable time while sustainably bringing their creative ideas to fruition. As we are aware, a significant number of small businesses struggle due to the absence of a solid plan, an effective marketing strategy, and limited financial resources. However, Printful significantly enhances the chances of success by making it more achievable for these businesses to thrive.
Printful is a Print-on-Demand company that is the leader in the business with millions of sales worldwide. It is both online and an App where you can create print-on-demand (POD) products using either your original art or their art and text to create designs to place on their enormous amount of products. They have a design editor, and the ability to push your products to places like Amazon, eBay, Etsy, and so many more. You can in most cases also write all the text -- title, description, keywords, etc, and use their mockups, offer sales, create your own pricing for products and it goes on and on. What I like most is it is free and helps me make money across the globe.
Though they are the leader -- even if Amazon Merch n Demand is coming up alongside them, their prices are really the highest in the industry for us to purchase wholesale, have printed, and shipped. That means I have to charge more when I use them for a product but their print and product quality saves the day. It is just too pricey for most of us.
Aside from being the best place to upload my designs and do all I have to do to create a product and push it to my online store(s), you have to have product photos in specific sizes, resolutions, and more for every platform you sell on and that is always different. Printful supplies you with all of the mockups you specifically chose. It is absolutely a lifesaver because I do not have the physical products, they do.
I love the concept of just getting to do the fun stuff: designing! You don't have to worry about buying packaging supplies or making trips to the post office. Just creating!
I think the pricing could be better with some of their products. I also think there should be more color variations with the clothing and more products in general.
You can build a passive income with Printful. You don't have to spend hours packing orders or driving down to the post office. They create and package your orders for you, so all you have to worry about is collecting money.
I was blown away at how easy it was to brand the merchandise and sync it with our WooCommerce bookstore on our WordPress website. I tried five other vendors and nothing compared--we either had to buy items in bulk or take users to an external website to place orders. Thanks to Printful technology, we now have a custom Bookstore where members can buy our branded swag without leaving our website. Their transactions are recorded in their profiles on our site, and they can choose items they want to have print-on-demand. Take a look at the result. See a screenshot of our bookstore http://assets.1791delegates.org/v/0IHQ7Dpg4Sf8C3uvCwFg and see a screenshot of our branded products: http://assets.1791delegates.org/v/cY7tUfWpbBBXklq0ibsA Overall, it took me less than three hours to create 16 branded products, select the product images, and integrate everything into our WordPress site. The Printful website is a master class on how to use technology to optimize efficiency. I was also amazed by the shipping process. For other vendors, we had to wait for six to nine weeks for bulk orders. Printful had items on my doorstep within a few days. And for things that look longer, they were there within ten days. And each item came with clear tracking notifications, so I knew exactly where the order stood. And the quality, wow. The products are exceptional. Our intricate logo looked great on the gym bag, embroidered shirts, mouse pad, greeting cards, and stickers, and everyone kept commenting on my Columbia fleece vest. Overall, Printful created game-changing technology that exceeds our expectations. Their print-on-demand business model is brilliant, and their products are gorgeous. Thank you, Printful, for all your hard work and commitment to excellence.
Honestly, my biggest lament is that I wish I had known about Printful a year earlier. The printing on the stainless steel didn't keep very well but all the other products were superior.
Printful solves three main problems for us: (1) Having to pre-pay bulk orders in hopes members of our association buy them at our annual meeting; (2) Having our members go to some other website to buy our branded products; and (3) Having no way to track our members' purchases. Thanks to Printful's print-on-demand model, our members go to our WordPress website and use our WooCommerce integration to buy branded swag without leaving our website. Our members see a clear history of what they purchased, and the items sync with Quickbooks for our bookkeeping. It's a brilliant system that they've created.
Response time and shipping time frame. Receive the products in just a few short days.
It's very difficult communicating with the live chat. Sometimes you can't get your questions answered
By giving customers quality products. Benefits of not having to handle inventory
Ease of use and very helpful and quick support chat
Unfortunately, sometimes shipping can be high priced.
Solving not having to keep inventory on hand. It is much easier than ordering in bulk and managing stock.
Printful is very easy to use even if you are new to the print-on-demand business. I was able to set up - connect my store and sync my products in a matter of an hour.
The prices of some products are comparably high, but considering the quality, I think its ok
I am integrating print-on-demand products into my store to sell and Printful gave me a lot more than that. Printful gave me everything I need to lunch my print-on-demand business to the world.
