hi timothy - i am enjoying this video -however what would really be useful is to see your digital shops, would you share links to your etsy shops with your viewers?
I'm confused by something a lot of people say use etsy but a lot of others say etsy isn't good to use so do I use etsy or somewhere else. Also how do I know if the niche I'm thinking os a good one because I see a lot of stuff in the niche but I don't know if it's just always pooping up because I look at them or if it is over saturated
Hii brandon. Nice video as always.. I just wanna ask which category to select before uploading a digital planner on etsy. Lots of categories confusing me.
Hi Brandon. Thank you for taking the time to make these informative videos. Could you please help me with something? I cannot post a ZIP folder on my Etsy listing because it has more than 20MB (there are 20 pdf page). But I see similar listings in the same niche (printables) having more pages (at least 50 pdf pages) and posting everything as pdf files or ZIP. Is there a way to make my file smaller without loosing quality?
@@brandontimothy I can’t believe you replied to this,this is the first time someone has replied to me thanks for making these videos I have make a lot of money I am about to get my first 2k pc thanks Brandon and today is my bday
Unfortunately, you need a laptop or a computer. It would provide you with more flexibility and tools for designing and managing your products effectively.
Hello! Thank you for the information! I noticed you said that you had a 50 digital ideas ebook for free but could not find it. Can you please help with that?
Hi guys. I am a French Etsy seller and I had my Etsy account permanently blocked. I appealed but they refused. This means I lose my store but I can't create forever. Do you happen to have any contacts to resolve the situation?
Hi , i am based in france too , did you manage to solve your problem or you are banned forever?? Because i heard lately many users worldwide get blocked without any appeling reason? (Maybe search alternatives of etsy, or create your own website and promote with ads paid&organic)
As a beginner that I cant understand and what equipment need How can I talk to you? So I can understand it clearly? Do you have gmail or somewhere where I can communicate you?
Hi Brandon, I’m interested to sign up your coaching course but would like to know if the information and guide you provided in the course, are they sometimes back experience and are still useable at this point of time in ending 2024? I appreciate your time for my genuine query, thank you.
Hi! The coaching program stays up to date with the latest strategies and tips to ensure our students are informed with any new changes or algorithm changes from Etsy.
How do you leverage the flexibility and adaptability of online marketing to connect with your customers more effectively, and how do real-time analytics influence your marketing strategies to keep up with changing trends and behaviors?
Great video, Brandon! Besides canva, which softwares do you recommend for creating and designing digital products specificity that would set my products apart?
@@brandontimothy Thanks for your response, my bad. Let me rephrase the question- If you have to suggest 2 other software for creating templates and printables besides canva, which would those softwares be?
Etsy payment is currently unavailable in Sri Lanka. However, if you're able to open a bank account in another country that accepts Etsy payments, then you can certainly sell on Etsy. You can check the list of countries where Etsy payment is available here: help.etsy.com/hc/en-us/articles/115015710408-Countries-Eligible-for-Etsy-Payments?segment=selling.
@@brandontimothy this is a lie, you can only open etsy shop in the countries that accept etsy payments. They suspend anyone who is outside of these countries
Hi Brandon! Thank you very much for making all of these videos I'm watching all of them one by one. Can I ask? Do you already have a video about a Word File and Template and how to upload it on Esty? How do you make a resume template into Word File so that customers can have a Word file copy and edit that in Microsoft Word if they want without changing my original file and how to upload the Word File on Etsy as well together with the template? Thank you very much.
hey brandon, etsy suspended my account after making my shop? any idea why or how to get my account back?? I made an appeal but havent recieved any email back or anything, its been 11 days
Unfortunately, Etsy Payments is not available in Afghanistan at the moment. However, if you can create a bank account in a different country where Etsy Payments is allowed, you can still sell digital products on Etsy. For more details, you can check this help.etsy.com/hc/en-us/articles/115015710408-Countries-Eligible-for-Etsy-Payments?segment=selling.
Im wondering why someone would pay for a digital planner for example, when they can just download an app for free? Does this business model still work nowadays?
can i ask a question : I have a digital shop, but people said to me that : I only can access with one steady IP, wifi and laptop. If we change, etsy will suspend our shop. So can I still travel to another place and continue work in another site ??

Say you do market research and open a shop.... months down the road your shop is doing good with sales... you continue to stick with that niche right? If you see something else that you want to start or try open a different shop? Dont add to the existing. I know it depends on the digital product you are selling. Thanks
If your current shop is doing well, it's usually advisable to stick with that niche. However, if you're interested in trying something new, consider factors like relevance, audience, and brand consistency. If the new product aligns and has potential, you may either add it to your existing shop or, if significantly different, open a new one. Just ensure you have the time and resources to manage multiple shops effectively.

Thank you so much! That means a lot. Glad you enjoy the channel
Hi Brandon! Can you explain more about trademark and copyright on etsy? To avoid being suspended without knowing. Thank you so much😊
@brandontimothy it's good to know. Thanks!
Yes this is what I'm worried about people get banned even when they 100% make them from scratch not even with templates
Great video. I'm a new seller on Etsy and still learning what to sell.
Best of luck! You got this.
I love it! Thank you for the information before starting to sell digital products
hi timothy - i am enjoying this video -however what would really be useful is to see your digital shops, would you share links to your etsy shops with your viewers?
I would love to know how he conducts his research before taking on that digital product to sell..
I've always heard about digital products but my problem is how do I get what to sell or create my digital product? I'm confused
That's the question they never answer
Heyy! Do you have a video on how to update products on Etsy? And if you covered that part in the video my bad I haven’t finished watching yet lol
I meant upload* not update
Thank you so much.
the info about research was quite useful here!
Always! 😊
I'm confused by something a lot of people say use etsy but a lot of others say etsy isn't good to use so do I use etsy or somewhere else. Also how do I know if the niche I'm thinking os a good one because I see a lot of stuff in the niche but I don't know if it's just always pooping up because I look at them or if it is over saturated
I love your videos!
Hii brandon. Nice video as always.. I just wanna ask which category to select before uploading a digital planner on etsy. Lots of categories confusing me.
im planning to become a digital product seller.. how can i research on-demand digital products?
Did you create the resume template yourself and then post pictures of it to make it a product of sale ?
Subscribed! Very helpful. Thank you so mich! 😊
Thank you, and you're welcome! 😊
this might be a dumb question, but when creating a resume to sell do you have to put your actual name in the place that says “your name?”
No you leave it as “your name" so the person buying knows to put their name there
Hii new subscriber here one question can i use an ipad air instead of a laptop to start ?
Any other platform you suggest, as per etsy is not now in Pakistan

Is it free version of erank enough to start?
does it need startup cost?
what is the best product to sell because I don't have any idea
There are many great products to sell, it just depends on what your skill sets and interests are
A product that solves a problem to your audience that provides value
Do I have to be good at math to sell cuz I struggled a bit with it
I love your videos they are easy understandable and actually help me
Thank you for watching!

Hii. Can I ask if you can start creating digital products and selling it using android phone? Thank you for answering 😊
Unfortunately, you need a laptop or a computer. It would provide you with more flexibility and tools for designing and managing your products effectively.
Is it possible to do this with only using mobile phones?
Thankyouuu so much, your video is very helpful ❤
Can this be done from Canada?
Hi
Can yiu provide an alternative for Etsy?
In Sri Lanka we cannot create etsy seller account
Hey brandon, if I hire outsourcers to create our digital products, do we still say "I made it " when completing our listing?
I asked this too
Yes, when you outsource designs, they are still a part of your shop's team.
Hello! Thank you for the information! I noticed you said that you had a 50 digital ideas ebook for free but could not find it. Can you please help with that?

Welcome!

Is it possible with just a smartphone?
Unfortunately, you'll need a laptop or computer for easy navigation of your shop and for product creation.
There's actually a way to sell digital products with your phone only!
Apart from Etsy
is there free guide? dont have money to enroll.
Yes! I do have a free Etsy masterclass, where I share my 4-phase Etsy framework. You can join here: www.brandontimothy.com/join
@@brandontimothy thanks i will check.
It's legal at usa ,and how you do to pay taxes
Set money aside from what you make 25% and pay IRS directly each quarter or at tax time
Great!😀
hii! can i still be lowkey as i earn using digital products?
Yes! You can absolutely keep a low profile while earning from digital products. It's all about finding your balance.
Does country location matters?
I'm in Afghanistan, can I create and sell digi products?
Unfortunately, Etsy Payments is not available in Afghanistan at the moment.

Im wondering why someone would pay for a digital planner for example, when they can just download an app for free?
Does this business model still work nowadays?
Maybe it has theming that caters to a specific niche, or your digital planner has a factor that makes it better than what's currently on the market.
Im 13 yrs/old, i want to learn but i do not have any money to buy the course😢
It's okay, feel free to watch my UA-cam videos. :)

Once you've created your digital products, you can sell them anywhere and anytime.

If you see something else that you want to start or try open a different shop? Dont add to the existing. I know it depends on the digital product you are selling. Thanks
