50% of MOD saes are text-only. Who knew?

Designs, cartoons, and amazing photos do well on MOD products, but what if you can't draw a straight line with a ruler?  Well take heart from this statistic from CafePress. A little more than 50% of products sold on CafePress have only text, no art, on them. These can be catchy slogans, funny sayings, or political statements.

How can you come up with text that will sell? First start with your theme, and then find a crowd around that theme.  Here's what I mean. If you sell dog-related products, go to a dog show. If you sell resort products, go to the beach. Then stand still in a crowded area and just listen to the people walking by you. You'll hear snippets of conversations that just might inspire you.
