The print-on-demand world is large and complex. It pulls aspects from both the business and art world together to create a whole new way to make money. It’s wonderful, but also full of technical terms that can confuse new sellers and veterans alike. We decided to create a list of general business and print-on-demand terms for you to keep nearby.

This is when you sell your products in more than one place. Like when you sell in online marketplaces or on social media.
A niche market is a small, specific part of a broader market. Sometimes going into niche markets is easier and more profitable than going for a broad market.
Let’s use pets as an example. Pets is a general term and therefore makes it a broad market. If you narrow it down to cats you’ll have a smaller market. If that’s still too big, you can be even more specific and focus on black cats.
An online marketplace is a place online, separate from your website, where you can sell things. Many different people can sell within this one space, think Etsy, Amazon, and eBay.
