We\u2019ve made it super simple<\/span> to set up, so you can focus on the most important part: selling your merch!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Here\u2019s a quick step by step tutorial on how to set up your store with Vexels.\u00a0<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\n

Add Store Info<\/h2>\n

To start setting up your store, you’ll need to come up with a creative store name, domain and a description. If you\u2019re a little lost here, don\u2019t worry, we\u2019ll make sure to include some tips to help you out.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\n

Define your Store Brand<\/h2>\n

The last step to setting up your store information is setting up your Merch brand. You can do this by clicking on the logo placeholder and uploading your Merch logo, along with the Brand colors that\u2019ll be seen across your Merch store. If you don’t have a logo yet, you can create one easily using our Logo Maker.<\/a>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\n

Create Merch Products<\/h2>\n

Now you can go ahead and start adding the Merch Products you\u2019re going to be selling on your store. In the Create Products section of the Stores Dashboard, you\u2019ll find a list of Merch Items from our partner: Printful. They will take care of the actual production, shipping and handling of all Merch items sold on your store.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\n

Set Up Item Info & Prices<\/h2>\n

Set up the Item Name and Description, along with the Royalty %. Now, don\u2019t go crazy and try to sell a mug for $50 bucks. Be realistic with prices and keep in mind that these exclude Shipping and Taxes that your customer will have to pay. Investigate the market for your item. Browse the internet to find examples of what other people are selling similar items for, and decide on a competitive price.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\n

Edit Products<\/h2>\n

Once you\u2019re done setting up your item, you can edit some of its details on the My Products section, where you\u2019ll be able to check out all the products you\u2019ve added to your store. Our Stores team will have to review each item you try to add to your store, so you\u2019ll be able to check if your items are Active or being reviewed here.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\n

Wait for Approval<\/h2>\n

Once you\u2019ve requested your store, our Stores team will review your application and set everything up for you within 24 hours, guaranteed![\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\n

Start Selling<\/h2>\n

Now, it\u2019s time to sell! Create socials for your new merch brand, spread the word and market your products as you wish. Get creative and tackle the market to start earning.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\n

Review Sales<\/h2>\n

Once you\u2019ve made your first sale, you\u2019ll find a detailed list of all purchases made on the Sales tab of your Stores profile.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\n

Receive Monthly Payments<\/h2>\n

To start receiving your monthly payments, you\u2019ll need to add your PayPal email, so we can send over your part of the revenue made on merch purchases. If you don\u2019t have a PayPal account you can create one easily in just a few minutes on their website.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]And that\u2019s it! You\u2019ve got your Vexels Store set up and running.\u00a0<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” overlay_strength=”0.3″ shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_link_target=”_self” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”]
