Stickers and postcards are two of lowest cost items to build your inventory with. A lot of small art businesses, including yours truly, started our entire business with just stickers and postcards. 

GETTING STARTED WITH POSTCARDS

This is not sponsored but the link is a code that gives you 25% off your first order and I get a small Moo credit in return.

MOO

I have been printing ALL my postcards with MOO since 2018. After shopping around, Moo has been the only place that allows up to 25 designs for each batch order. That alone is a HUGE selling point for beginner sellers who have never sold any postcards before because you never know what is going to sell and what is not going to sell as well. Another thing I love about MOO is the printing quality is always amazing and consistent. The same design I printed few years back and this month turn out exactly the same, no change in color even the batches are few years apart. They know what they are doing with them printers. Very nice customer service too.

Tips:

- Include your name, website and one social media at the back of your designs (the side people write on.) People might be gifting your postcards to others, this is a way of free advertising opportunity that you don't want to miss out on.

- When you order your postcards on MOO, simply duplicate the designs you want to print more than other designs since you cannot manually change how many prints you want for each designs.

- Order ahead of the time to save on shipping. Time management is key. You want to remember each supplier's estimate lead time to give yourself enough time to prepare for you events. 

- Use postcards to as way to test out all your different designs. Study which postcard designs sell the best. The designs that sell well, you can then manufacture as larger and higher-cost items like prints, blankets, clothing items, etc.
