My secret (and FREE) hack for accurate mockups for print on demand shirts

Published 2023-06-30
If you've ever scrolled through Etsy and wondered which shirt mockups were the most accurate (even though they're supposed to be for the same exact shirt) - you're not alone! I'm sharing my easy (and totally free) hack for making sure my mockups are accurate to avoid customer service issues.

    Thanks for this info, Mandy. Nobody ever covers this important info in their videos. I’ll get to those websites and order my search catalogs TODAY. (PS: Love your wavy hair today!)
  • @moonlitmockups
    Hi Mandy!! Moonlit Mockups here! :) You shared some great tips on how to color correct images. I just would like to also add that I highly recommend always reaching out to the mockup seller if you have a discrepancy over the color of the product. :) Speaking for my shop personally, since I have access to the original raw files, I am able to easily go in and tweak any images if need be and I'm always happy to assist. I'm pretty sad I made it to the thumbnail of this video lol, but as I've grown in this space I do my very best to check for color accuracy before listing. Wishing you nothing but success!! Alina 💖

  • @vickyosborn1481
    Excellent video! I followed along and ordered my color swatches. Your channel is SO helpful for this newbie and I am extremely grateful for you and your material!!
  • @victoriarivera3455
    Thank you so much for addressing this! I AGONIZE over color discrepancies and I'm so paranoid about it. Super appreciate your detailed info <3
  • Thank you so much, Mandy! I ordered the catalogs! Totally appreciate this tip!
  • @PreetiS777
    You are officially my favorite mentor and guide for a new Etsy Store owner!
  • @favourqueen2014
    Hi Mandy, thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge with us. We are really grateful. I got my color charts booklets last week. As a new POD seller all the guidance given is greatly appreciated. Thanks again. God Bless you.
  • @rachdeer
    This is AMAZING info! Thank you for sharing!! I always want consistency in my mock-up colors.
  • @vane19148
    Great info as always. Thank you, Mandy🙌🏼
  • Something nobody has mentioned before, great new info Mandy👍🏻thanks
  • @user-yb8by9ot9b
    Thanks for sharing your tip. I've been going to the company websites to view colors, but your tip is even better.
  • I'm kind of late to the party, but your channel is a hidden gem--hopefully not for long though. Thank you for all of the helpful tips that'll actually make a difference in my stores!
  • @AngieBaby666
    Thanks for this valuable information. I am new to POD and the issues covered in the video are some I've never even thought of. Every little detail seems to count when becoming successful in Etsy so I'm really glad I came across your video. I've subscribed to your channel and will be ordering the color catalogues right away. Thanks!
  • Your videos are awesome! Stuff that may be talked about briefly on other youtube channels, but you go in to detail! love it!
  • @katieserra6492
    Really useful video. Thanks, I haven't heard anybody else talking about this.
  • Thank you for this! I have to say, you provide a lot of POD information that I have not seen elsewhere and I have watched a lot of YouTube videos about POD haha! I appreciate it and I have been slowly following along with your course series and implementing changes to my shop :)
  • Why isn't this more widely talked about? Thank you so much! I knew about the Bella Canvas and already have the swatch chart. I didn't know about the Comfort Colors or Gildan swatches. Got them ordered. Thank you so much!
