Photoshop and PSD Mockup

Believe it not, and I am sure most of them who are neck-deep in POD business would agree - generating mock-ups using photoshop can cost you several man-hours. It eats up your profits if you think.

What you do is open a Smart Object layer, replace a design, Save it as Jpeg. Multiply this number of products you have. 

You may hire a person to do so. But what about precision, accuracy. You cannot afford any slip-ups. Customers are fickle. A hint of poor quality and poof, they never come back.

You upload a design. Resize it. Save it. Export it. Multiply this at least by 100 and you get the enormity of the task. 

Imagine the room for error in such a tedious task!

Well, the good news is that you can revolutionize your POD business with POD Automation!

Hey, I’m Vikash the main guy behind Bulk Mockup. In the past, I ran an image editing agency - Putoos Graphics LLP, where I worked with hundreds of print on demand sellers to create mockups for their listing. While running the agency, I have seen mockups being a one of the most time consuming and boring task for Print on Demand Entrepreneurs. I have built Bulk Mockup to automate mockups productions for sellers and improve their productivity. In the few years of existence our Bulk Mockup tool has been used by hundreds of print on demand sellers. It has helped them save both money and time in their workflow.
