How I Got a Youtuber $82,252.02 Using Paper

(And how I could do the same for Kristin Made)

Case study

Sep 2024 - Present

I made monthly posters they sold to their audience.

We began the 1st wave of poster merch September of 2024.

I run 90% gross margins (that’s better than clothing ever could)

We’ve been splitting all profits 50/50

How It Worked:

Who: Morj’s audience
What: One Piece Travel Posters
When: Limited monthly bundles
Why: To connect with his audience and sell to them

How: Ad segments in every single video + livestream

Risks Involved:

To make the risks small to Morj I did the following:

No upfront $$$

All $$$ went directly into their bank (I am then paid monthly)
They could quit at anytime
Only need to talk to 1 person - me..

And that’s it! If this seems interesting, keep scrolling!

The Pitch

Why would this be a good partnership?

You developed an extremely cozy brand

As far as I can tell, you have not dabbled in producing your own home decor collections

I have a really cool idea that fits your brand

My Idea: Seasonal Cozy Decor

Cute gouache digital art prints
Make prints “room” specific (e.g. only for kitchens, only for living rooms, only for nurseries)
Make new drops each season

(Please note: Everything shown is a rough sketch, designed to show intent. It is no way representative of final, intended quality.)

How it works:

Step 1: I make everything

step 2: you approve when satisfied

Step 3: We make ads

Step 4: I do all the fulfillment

Conclusion:

One thing i’ve learned is this:

The larger the catalogue = the more money

Therefore the longer this goes, the more profitable it can be become!
