1. The Core Principle: You Are a Middleman (In a Good Way)

Part 5 • Crucial Financial Clarity - The Fulfillment Payment

In the print-on-demand model, you are fundamentally a go-between. You connect a customer who wants a product with a manufacturer who can make it. Your business's primary function is marketing and brand-building, not manufacturing or logistics. Your profit is the fee you charge for making this connection successfully. The system is specifically designed so that you are never "out of pocket"—you never spend your own money to buy inventory in the hopes that it will sell later.
