Spreadshirt’s Premium Account: Interview with HASENFARM

Henning from HASENFARM on his experiences with Spreadshirt’s Premium Account.

Who are you, and what do you do?

And when did you become a premium member?

If I remember correctly, we became premium members about half an hour after registering the shop with Spreadshirt.

What made you decide to upgrade your account to premium?

It was a practical decision more than anything. Being able to upload an unlimited number of designs is what makes a premium account quite exciting, but it was only later that we learned that a premium account also has quite a number of other advantages as well.

More Success with Pinterest #3 – Tracking & Analysis

The second part of our Pintertest tutorial was all about creating boards. But how can you find out whether your boards are successful or not? Do they actually generate the traffic you want them to create? Which pins are responsible for which amount of the traffic? And how successful is the competition? There are a number of approaches for tracking these questions. It is important to gather this information to optimise your Pintertest activities.
Here for a few means of analysis and tracking tools:
1. Repinly
Repinly offers you a selection of very interesting assessment options, which will help you effectively use your boards. Here you can see the most popular pin and board categories to help you find out which boards and users have most of the followers. Yet, so far it is not possible to sort these by countries. But it’s still well worth giving this site a go. Read more

Super Series September – Which is your favorite show?

Are you as excited as we are for the all the big series premiering their new seasons in the US this September? The great stories, the laughter, the tears – and best of all: the loveable characters with their witty lines? We have picked out our favourite How I Met Your Mother shirts, Big Bang Theory shirts and The Simpsons shirts for you.

“How I Met Your Mother” premieres its eighth season today. The show about 5 friends in New York is probably one of the best loved shows right now, winning the People’s Choice Award for Best TV Network Comedy and generally being awesome. Up top! It is fair to say that Barney is almost everyone’s favorite character as he has the most legendary lines, some of which you can also find on our shirts. It is not “suiting up”, but it is the next best thing!
