In this week’s episode we’re joined by Jeff from POD Insights.
Jeff is living proof that long-term investments, whether in money or time, pay off big. He made his first $100k in POD with Etsy and has amassed a vast knowledge when it comes to the do’s and don’ts in eCommerce, the tools available, as well as selling on various eCommerce platforms.
Now, his YouTube channel POD Insights is a treasure trove for anyone in the POD biz.
Should you sell only on Etsy or on multiple platforms? How can you leverage free SEO or design tools to the max? How to know whether you should keep paying for a tool? What tools, if any, are necessary for new online sellers to succeed?
Talish dives right in an episode filled with golden nuggets of wisdom.

In this week’s episode, we’re joined by a POD prodigy: Starla Moore. At the age of only 19, Starla opened her jewelry store on Etsy and went on to become a top 1% seller for five years straight.
Having earned more than $100k, she’s now a manager at eRank and has her own Handmade Alpha Academy, where she passes on her knowledge to others.
