The Power of DTF: How to Start a Side Hustle with Jiffy Blanks
Have you ever thought about turning your crafting passion into a real business? As a crafter, I know that time is money, and traditional methods like heat transfer vinyl (HTV) can be a major time sink. That's why DTF transfers are the perfect solution for anyone looking to start a custom apparel side hustle.
I used to spend hours weeding intricate vinyl designs for just one shirt. Now, I can press a full-color DTF design in seconds. That means more products, less time, and more profit.
Why DTF is a Game-Changer for Small Businesses
- Low Cost, High Profit: Jiffy's DTF transfers start as low as $0.05 per square inch. There are no minimum order sizes and no set-up fees. You only pay for what you print, making it easy to create a single custom item or a large order without a huge investment.
- Fast Turnaround: Speed is key for a side hustle. Jiffy offers same-day shipping in select locations and a 100-day satisfaction guarantee, so you can fulfill orders as soon as tomorrow with confidence.
- Jiffy's Pricing Advantage: Jiffy offers bulk discounts on blanks at $59 and free shipping on transfers at $29. By bundling your blank and transfer purchases, you can increase your profit margin and pass the savings on to your customers.
My first order was for a local dance studio. I used a single Custom DTF Gang Sheet to create a variety of different designs for the instructors and students, including logos for the front, large designs for the back, and small ones for the sleeves.

You can also bundle your transfers with Jiffy's blank apparel, like the Gildan G500 Heavy Cotton™ T-Shirt or the Gildan G300 Light Cotton T-Shirt, which are perfect starting blanks for any project.
