This calculator is a great starting point for anyone weighing the costs and benefits of launching a print-on-demand business on Etsy versus Amazon Merch. It clearly breaks down your upfront cash requirements—smartly separating your working capital reserve from actual sunk costs—and calculates exactly how many shirts you need to sell to break even on each platform. Keep in mind that the model assumes you'll use the same paid design and research tools regardless of which storefront you choose, and it bakes in a fixed $29 Etsy setup fee that might vary depending on your region.
