>>3085060Thanks a lot - I appreciate it!
>>3085286No need for the hostility. As
>>3085621 so eloquently pointed out - I can't help you in regards to taxes as I don't who you are, what country you're in, what you need to report and how, etc. Here in the US, I simply lump my passive income into my yearly earnings that I report. Pretty straight forward.
>>3087391I'm unaware of any reliable and smooth services that integrate into Etsy's API to connect Etsy to Printful. Maybe there are some now, but I just do everything manually. I thought it would end up being a hassle to do everything manually, but it's very, very easy. I spend ~5 minutes a day placing orders, and sending out shipping notifications. The process goes like this:
1. Customer orders something on Etsy (for example - something that costs $25.00)
2. Open up Printful (I usually have them open side by side), and use their interface to upload your design. You pick out what type of product, what size, what color and what design (they're all saved for easy access) the customer ordered.
3. On the next page, there's a way to copy/paste their shipping info in, and it automatically formats it. Super quick. Then you
4. Final page is to review and place the order. You get charged ($15)
5. You keep the $10.00 profit.
Whole process takes about 30 seconds. When the order goes out a few days later (you get an email when it does), you just copy/paste the tracking info and shoot the shipping notification over via the Etsy order page.
It takes longer to set things up on Etsy (gotta make all your own listings, product images, shipping policies, etc.), but once you do, all you have to do is quickly place orders. You also have to do any customer service too, which is probably the shittiest part of it, but it's still worth it.
Hope that helps!
