If you run a website, an online shop, or a growing social media brand, you’ve probably had this thought before: “I could sell branded t-shirts, caps, or mugs to my audience — if only I didn’t need to buy stock, own printing equipment, or figure out delivery.”
Over the last few months, our team at PI Printers has been quietly building exactly that solution. It’s called the PI Printers Affiliate Program, and it’s completely free to join.
This is the first post in a short series where we’ll walk you through exactly what it is, how it works, why it’s worth adding to your website, and how to get started. Let’s begin with the big picture.
The Problem With Selling Branded Products
Normally, if you want to sell branded merchandise, you’re faced with a list of expensive, time-consuming steps: buy blank stock, buy or rent printing equipment, learn how to print properly, store finished stock, and manage delivery — all before you’ve made a single sale.
For most website owners, side-hustlers, and small brands, that’s simply not worth the risk. So the idea gets shelved.
What We’ve Built Instead
The PI Printers Affiliate Program lets you add branded products to your own website without any of that. You choose the products, brand them with your own artwork, and set your own selling price. We handle production and delivery on our side, using the same in-house equipment we use for our own orders — DTF, UV-DTF, sublimation, silk screen, embroidery, and more, all under one roof in Lyndhurst, Johannesburg.
In short: your customers buy from your website, and we take care of everything that happens after the order is placed.
Who This Is For
- Website and online store owners who want to add a new product line without capital outlay.
- Influencers and content creators who want their own branded merchandise without managing production.
- Side-hustlers and entrepreneurs looking for a low-risk way to start a branded product business.
- Existing wholesale and corporate clients who want to offer branded merch to their own customers.
What’s Coming Next
Over the next few weeks, we’ll unpack this properly: how the program actually works from start to finish (using a t-shirt as a worked example), why it’s such a smart addition to your website, and exactly how to get set up. If you’d rather not wait, you’re welcome to reach out today.
