Designers, Get Ready: Pre-Holiday Checklist!
DESIGNERS!
Are. You. Ready????
Soon, your stockings will be hung by the chimney with care, so today, let's learn how to improve the way your store fares.
Basically, you want to sell during the holidays, and we want to help!
Here are the best tips to make sure you're ready:
1. Upload More!
We've crunched the numbers, and found that our most successful designers upload their entire back catalog to their storefronts (on average 22 designs).
2. Tag Your Designs!
Tag 'em, baby, tag 'em
3. Make Your Own Ads
Your fans love to see your self-expression in all forms. Tell them about your store in your own voice!
4. Refer a Friend
Did you know that you could make an extra $1000 bucks on TeePublic? Grab a friend and read this tip together!
Check this list and check it twice. Now you're on the right track! Niiiiiice.

While you're at it, now's the best time for you to check that your avatar and banner look good to welcome your visitors.
Finally, it's a great time to turn your attention to product timing, by which we mean aligning your promos with what sells best during a specific season: During the holidays, that means hoodies, stocking stuffers, and that perennial favorite, tees. Last holiday season our audience really dug our premium tees (now available in sizes up to 5XL).
When you make ads for yourself (see Tip #3 above), it's a great idea to feature seasonal faves prominently in them so your fans know that you offer what they're looking for.
Can't get enough of holiday prep? Don't worry, we have more tips where those came from!
Stay tuned, and, as always, happy selling!
