How To Sell On Society6 - (Print On Demand Review & Tutorial)| Society6 Review-Society6 Sales

About this video

A review and step-by-step tutorial for selling on Society6. Martinez explains Society6 is a print-on-demand marketplace where you upload artwork, enable products, and the platform handles printing, inventory, shipping and customer service — traffic is smaller than Merch by Amazon or Etsy and comparable to Redbubble and Spreadshirt. He walks through signing up honestly and completely (warning misleading info gets accounts shut down), researching the platform first in incognito mode: trending products include posters, mugs, shower curtains, tapestries, canvas prints, throw blankets/pillows, yoga mats and phone cases, and ‘hearts’ signal demand (some designs show thousands to over 20,000 hearts). He advises making your shop feel like a brand, never copying other artists, and bringing over niches that already sell elsewhere to be different rather than copy. He creates a simple ‘monkey see, monkey do’ design in Merch Informer’s designer, uploads it (PNG/JPG, RGB, size requirements per product), positions it on the chest, disables products he isn’t targeting, and builds up to 20 tags by spying on competitors’ tags in the monkey niche, plus a short description. Publishing can take up to 30 minutes to appear. On earnings, he cites Society6’s article: artists earn up to 10% of the retail price on all products except art prints, framed prints and canvas prints.

Key takeaways

  • Society6 handles printing, inventory, shipping and customer service; expect Redbubble/Spreadshirt-level traffic, not Amazon/Etsy levels
  • Research in incognito mode first: sort by popular/new and use heart counts as a demand signal for niches and products
  • Simple text-based designs do sell — don’t be intimidated by illustration-heavy top sellers, and never copy other artists
  • Spy on competitors’ tags to fill your 20 tags, write a niche-focused description, and check each product’s size requirements before enabling it
  • Artists earn up to 10% of retail price except on art prints, framed prints and canvas prints, per Society6’s earnings article
