🔥Back in the saddle again....  with a new direction for our little podcast. We were really good at dropping all kinds of knowledge about the merch game, but now we're gonna drop knowledge ALL OVER THE DANG PLACE!!! Spreadshop podcast is now the BYOB Podcast, brought to you by Spreadhop.com. I'll be dropping tips and strategies you can use to help you build your own personal brand or even your own mega brand.  In my first swing at bat, I talk a little about my trip to eTail East 2019, where I was honored to speak on stage about "growth hacking" and building scrappy teams of experts. I could literally talk about this all day, and i did, for 4 whole days at eTail! It was a great time, full of big brands and fancy people. I recorded a piece of my talk to share with you all.  I hope you can use these few tips within your own journey of building your brand. And hey, if you need merch, I know a guy who knows a guy... spreadshop.com 🔥

In this episode the gang chats with Aleasha Monroe of West Overton Village and Museums to discuss how a non-profit can use merch to help raise funds and stock their gift shop. "With high quality products and printing, no big time commitment and zero overhead there really wasn't a reason not to do this. For small non-profits print on demand is the perfect solution for your merch." - Aleasha Monroe. Online merch isn't just for Youtube creators and famous personalities. There really IS a Spreadshop for any passion or project. We're thrilled so many great non-profits are choosing Spreadshop as their online merch solution.
In today's Merch Cast, Marketing Guru Saul Colt joins us to discuss how he uses his personal brand's merch not only for fantastic promotional purposes, but also to build a connection with his audience and how your merch can help you build your brand. Bonus story: We wanted to know how Saul knows Aaron Draplin (one of our favorite designers ever) and how he scored an awesome logo from Draplin! He also lets us in on the shocking story behind his trademark red glasses and fancy kicks! We're stealing this idea! (with permission of course!)
We have some breaking news from Spreadshop land as the gang talks about an awesome new Spreadshop feature, that's of course completely free to use! Moose doesn't know how this can even be free.... but we assure you it's 1000% free. Unlike other players out there in the custom merch game, Spreadshop never charges you for these awesome features. In fact, we love taking the feedback we receive, giving it to our Wizards so they can cook up some amazing magic to make your experience even more fantastic! ❓To answer Moose's question of "How is this even free??! The answer is simple! The better we make the custom shop experience for you, the more you'll want to sell, and when you sell we all make money. We then keep reinvesting that money on better products and tools for creators. 🧗 We're climbing this Merch mountain together!
This week the Merch Cast gang discusses their design tool journeys, favorite apps, tips, tricks and more. Whether you're an aspiring designer just starting out or a seasoned pro, bring your ears and listen to us discuss just how fortunate we are to live in this day and age of design technology!
This week the gang sits down with Mr. Bubz's owner, Lizze Gordon, (AKA the Motherwife!) to talk about the internet's new top dog, what it's like to be the mother of a viral hit, and why Mr. Bubz decided to go with Spreadshop for his custom merch shop! "Just looking at the site and how easy it is to manage as a creative myself. It was a no-brainer. It’s just so simple. You upload the image, you launch it, you design it yourself, or you can have someone design it for you, its too easy. And I’ve got other stuff going on in my life, the less I have to worry about, branding the dark prince, the better, you know? What I like about Spreadshop is my fans can go in there and pick the color of the shirt they want, we get inspired by their designs just as they do ours. And it’s so fun and I love they can go in there and make their own phrase." - Motherwife Insert your demonic hissing sounds here! And ALL HAIL MR. BUBZ!
