When I first saw design pickle, I was a bit skeptical. I mean, Unlimited designs at the 370 price?

Either this is too good to be true, Or I just found a goldmine!
I went ahead and signed up. They give you 14 days free, So I figured it couldn't hurt.

Simple Interface

I was a bit confused when I saw the interface initially. It almost looks too easy, and empty. It took me a few minutes to navigate. But once I got to the point of sending in requests. This was when the magic started happening.

Send Lots Of Requests

For those of us who are busy, Or in the higher tiers. Sending requests for designs can seem like a seriously daunting task.
Especially when it needs to be done every day.
Or does it?
I love how Design Pickle will let you send in as many requests as you want. You can pile on the requests.

Note

Your designer will work from oldest, To newest. So be sure to plan your holidays and Niches accordingly.

The Delivery

I Love that I get a delivery every day. I usually send in 2-3 Shirt quotes for each request. Which gets me 4-8 Designs per day!

I received beautiful mockups in addition to the shirt designs, As well as light/dark colored versions (I didn't even have to ask for them. )

You can even send them scalable quotes so you can easily change a word or two and make hundreds of more designs on your own.

If you don't like the result, it's easy to get it revised. It's easy to send your designer a message, Right from your main email!

Some Designs

Here are two designs I got from Design Pickle.
I'm not going to show them all to you, For obvious reasons.

They have also made me some more elaborate designs in addition to more simple text designs.

I haven't had anything rejected yet. I've also reversed image searched all the designs I was sent, And they all came back good!
These are my designs, Please don't take them. For reference only

The Cons Of Design Pickle

I'm loving design pickle so far But as someone in the 4,000 tier. I see where it can have its limitations.

Of course with more effort, I could probably find someone cheaper to outsource to, After doing the math I probably pay around 2.40 per design. I also use other programs to edit the designs to help me reduce costs.
While the number of designs I'm getting each day helps. It won't cover my daily uploads of 80, Or the 160 I have at the moment. So I require extra help if I want to max out my uploads.

The Request Form Is A Bit Long

It can be a bit time to consume submitting the requests for designs. So I open multiple tabs and do a lot of copy and pasting for specific requirements that I have. It's not a HUGE deal. But it's another part of my week that is time-consuming. Of course, you can outsource this to a VA too.

Coming Up With Your Quotes!

You have to do your resaserch, Which is time-consuming. This is another thing that can be outsourced.
Finding the niches, and the things that will sell well is up to you.

I Plan to Stay Subscribed

I love that Design Pickle gives you a discount if you pay yearly! Which I'll be doing, Once I can get the 3,500 on hand. I plan to keep design pickle because of how easy it is to use, And in combination with my current two designers that I have, It will make running my Merch business a lot easier.
It's also a lot better priced than some of the other design services we see in the groups. I'm not bashing those services, But for those of us who are in higher tiers, Or simply on a budget. Paying 8-20 per design gets costly.
I'm glad Design Pickle is around to make my life a lot easier, So I can focus on uploading to other PODS.

I’m always skeptical when I see certain websites but it’s always good to get an opinion from somone who has already used it . I may just join the pickle :D

Interesting initiative there - The Design Pickle is wonderful for creating T-shirt designs, Banners, Fliers, brochures and even blog post graphics. It is truly a wonderful platform.

For the ones directed here from Facebook, this is the place to be. Do not post for free anymore. Here, you are challenged to do good research, you learn different tactics and you generally become a better enlightened person. Join the moving train.

Exactly! I love Design Pickle!
And this is a wonderful platform hehe :) Hopefully some people will join.

If the BSR is around # 2,000 you can expect that the shirt is selling 25-50 of that design daily. Around # 400,000 and the design is probably selling once or twice a week. The more you sell on Amazon and keep track of the BSR, the better idea you will get on the correlates to sales. Just remember that the lower number, the more popular the shirt is with consumers! Keep that in mind when doing research.

YES! Great way to add value.
that's so true! Many people do not know about BSR so that really helps :)

Thank you for this informative sharing and for your response to me later. :)

Seems like it's a great platform. I can't wait until I can get into something like this. I've had so many ideas for years just bouncing around in my head.

Good post!

I love that Design Pickle gives you a discount if you pay yearly! Which I'll be doing, Once I can get the 3,500 on hand.

Yea I think this will be a good idea coz it will save you the stress of having to pay Everytime. It will also save you lots of money.

Exactly! It's expensive upfront but can save you money overtime.

I'm loving the design pickle already. The designs are amazing and I'm glad I'm already here in steemit, for those who haven't signed up yet, you're missing a lot already but the Goodnews is that, it's never too late to sign up. Just do the needful

obviously we should go for Design Pickle by amazon,chris green lunch a good idea, number second i think that this cost reasonable.

I agree, The cost is reasonable for the value you get.

I think it’s all about the idea. Ideas are free, but to materialize it, it could become kind of expensive. However, if you belive in your idea, just like I do in Steemit, it always pays off. It’s like you have a lifetime goal. I hope I put you shirt design and steemit subject in one bucket of an answer.
BTW: I love the idea of you shirt design.

many of great idea in this article
