Cool T-shirts and Gifts - Chuck G Violin

So, not only am I a world class violinist and in-demand private teacher, but I also design and sell stuff through a print-on-demand company called Zazzle. I design lots of gifts, clothes, and other fun merchandise and get a small commission when people buy them. Zazzle takes care of the production and website, and I upload the images and make the products with their online design tool. It’s a pretty cool deal and real money can be made depending on how much effort you want to put into it.

The name of my store is Chords and Strings and I have about 200 different products using graphic designs and funny slogans that I created. I don’t spend nearly as much time designing as I should, but when I have put in some serious time, I have definitely seen an uptick in sales. You see, not only do you have to be a good designer, you also have to be a great online marketer and have a great niche store. When I have buckled down and done some marketing over the course of a few weeks, I always see some sales out of it.

So if you like what you see, hop by my store and check out some of the products there. I do mostly music-related gifts (duh) but I also do a lot of travel items like postcards (my best sellers), posters, and magnets.
