Don't Buy It Until You Sell It

So how does this all work? Basically you create “virtual” products made up of your art or sayings placed on products, such as mugs, umbrellas, skateboards, posters, duffle bags, postage stamps, etc. I’m calling them “virtual” because these products won’t be physically produced until a customer actually BUYS them!

You place your virtual products on the virtual shelves of the MOD’s storefront, thus opening the door for customers to buy from the MOD. Then the MOD pays you a percentage of the revenue. And that’s where you make your money. If you have created a product that resonates with buyers, you could potentially make thousands of dollar. Even if you don’t have a mega hit, you can still make hundreds of dollars a year, all while working from home, working whatever hours you choose.

Can you tell I’m a huge fan of this business model? But in case you’re wondering – no, I do not work for any of the MODs. So why this blog? I’d like to hear from you about your successes and failures, lessons learned and unexpected surprises from your foray into the MOD world. Send me an e-mail and you may see your topic covered in an upcoming blog post.
