How to Promo Your Store When You're Lazy

Look, we know life can get busy. And when that happens, the first things to go are the tasks you know are important but are just a step beyond what you think you can accomplish at that moment.

If we had to guess, we'd bet that usually "promotion of your TeePublic shop" falls into that category, right?

Well, we have good news: It doesn't have to!

Here are three quick, easy, and fast ways to promote your store when you're lazy*

(*or just really busy!!!)

• Use our Ad Templates

No matter the platform you use, whether it be GIMP, Illustrator or Photoshop, we've got an ad template for you to post across your social media platforms in just a few clicks. Though the interface may take a few minutes of your time to learn, you'll end up with a clean, professional-looking ad that we know you'll be proud to share!

• Screenshot Your Design On Your Storefront

But say you don't have even five minutes to spare. We get it!! But real talk, you know you're already on your phone, so why not make that habit work for you?

It's simple:

1) Pull up your storefront.

2) Take a screenshot of your favorite design in your store.

3) Post that screenshot on your Instagram story (and if you REALLY wanna do it up, pretty that story up with some gifs, text, and filters!)

Your fans will love to see your work in the wild and hey, some promo is better than no promo, right? 

(If you've never screenshotted before, here are instructions on how to do that on an Apple phone and an Android phone.)

• Drop a Link on Social Media

Ok, ok! Say you have even less time than what's required to craft an Instagram story. Some days are like that! But that doesn't mean that you can't promote your shop.

Just copy and paste the link to your storefront and drop it on Twitter and Facebook to let your fans know that your work (yes, YOUR work!) is on sale. 

Don't forget that posting even once means creating buzz for your shop, which equals momentum, and down the line, could mean sales for you.

W - I - N ! 

So what's your wait? Get to promo'ing!
