Michael Essek

Hello! I’m Michael Essek. I’m a full-time T-Shirt Seller, Illustrator and Designer from the UK. In the summer of 2013, I began producing designs for T-Shirts, and uploading them to sites like Redbubble & Society6. Shortly after this, I began selling through my ‘own-brand’ t-shirt website. I have had designs featured on TeeFury, BustedTees, ShirtPunch, and other popular T-Shirt sites. By the end of the first year, my profits from such sites were averaging a minimum of $1000/month. After 3 years, my earnings are around $7000/month. This income is almost entirely passive, required very little upfront financial investment, and relies on no paid marketing. I don’t print T-Shirts myself and I don’t handle stock.
