I literally just found the best way to earn money by using AI to do most of the heavy lifting for you without you ever having to invest any money up front or hold any inventory. And I know it sounds crazy, but come with me and let me show you something. By using a spy tool called Allure, I was able to see that this Etsy store called Palisade generated over 68,000 sales and over $2.9 million in revenue since 2020 to 2025 doing exactly what I'm about to show you right now. Now, this business model here is called print on demand. And here's how you can basically automate the entire process using AI. The first thing you need to do is go to this website called Gelato and sign up for a completely free account. Now, once you've signed up to their platform, go through their products and choose either a t-shirt or a hoodie model for your clothing brand. And the next step is really important.
So, pay attention. You're going to be creating the designs for these clothes. But to make sure you have the most amount of chances of getting actual sales, you need to use proven designs. And to be able to do that, you can use a tool like Allura to see exactly what products are selling the most on their store. Now, to be able to create them, head over to ChatGpt and give it the following prompt. Give me 10 funny t-shirt ideas for cat lovers. Now, AI will give you ideas in seconds, and some of them are actually hilarious. Then, if you have absolutely no design experience to be able to create those designs, there's a platform you can use to get literally done for you templates and just customize them with your quotes.
And the name of this platform is Canva. Once you're in Canva, simply drop the quote on a clean layout that you actually like, and export the design. Now, simply head over to Etsy, create a new listing, and connect it to Gelato. When you do this, every single time someone buys something from your store, Gelato will literally print and ship this item to your customer without you ever having to see or hold the product yourself.
