Hi
After plugging away at Facebook ads to Teespring for 4 months, I’ve decided to abandon my dream of ‘Teespring Riches.’ I’ve spent hundreds on Teespring training and tools. And of course hundreds more on the ads themselves, and paying for designers.

Apologies for the ‘negative vibe’ of this post, but I’d like to hear from others that either agree or don’t agree with me. Maybe it’s simply a case that I’m not cut out for this type of venture.

When I was speaking at a closed event with Gauher Chaudry (in 2008) I had a bunch of new comers (newbies sounds so downgrading) and I had an epiphany.
I told them the real “secret” to being successful is “find something you love and do that”.
Sounds like you lost the love with “Teespring” because you really didn’t have much in the first place. Maybe just a crush and the crush has worn off.
If you can take a step back and ask yourself if this is something you could really fall in love with long term (get married to it) I say stay with it. If the answer is no, then move on.
Be careful though that you don’t become the Affiliate Casanova (king of one-night stands) as we all are guilty of (me included, I’ve been that).
What I found was that I love Online Marketing. I married that (OM) and see the niche (Tee-spring) as only the vehicle I’m taking my date on to the movies.
If you can get that perspective and get yourself fully committed and passionate about it to the point of kicking ass and taking names (and phone numbers, pun intended) than stick with it.
I hope that helps…sounds a bit too philosophic, but I think I got the point across. 🙂
