PoD 1.4

So as this is a multi-stream approach of small and cost effective, in fact preferably free streams it’s time to report on the others. Cafepress and Zazzle the only 2 POD sites I’m currently on are ticking along. I shut the others down due to zero sales and it wasn’t worth the effort to maintain them. Cafepress and Zazzle I run now as entirely passive, Zazzle does do much in fact I think I have £10 or something like in there this year but being entirely passive it’s not worth shutting down as a tenner free is better than nothing! Cafepress I run as almost entirely passive, I do occasionally refresh the odd product. I simply re-list which then pushes them back into the limelight and seems to attract new sales. It’s still only generating about $50 (US site) per year but again as passive income it’s better than nought, plus there is always a chance I could latch onto something viral and make some real money

These I may shut down as with little to no income coming in plus with the fees that Cafepress charges and the US taxes applied to a foreign national its not worth it, even as passive income its dwindling fast and the paperwork and hassle is fast outweighing the effort. This I need to review but its becoming obvious its not working and I’d rather take my designs and use them where they’re appreciated and not dilute their appeal by simply blatting them over all PoD sites, a good tactic if you have the time and the correct product but I’d rather aim a little higher then the ‘worlds best dad’ and ‘go wildcats’ bumper sticker market
