Hey everyone! I am about to turn my businesses all into passive mode (ua-cam.com/video/jCqIGxA5S-k/v-deo.html ) and go on vacation for 2 weeks. I am sorry I won't be around to answer as many comments as usual. I hope you are also having a great 2 weeks, wherever it is that you are in the world 🌞🌏
A lot of people are asking what app I used to design these. It is Canva 🌞 whenever I said what it was in the video, it probably sounded funny in my New Zealand accent, haha 😉
I didn't understand the "stickers" part at minute 04:55 ...I mean, office supply stores like home depot have been selling blank sticker sheets in a plethora of shapes & colors for decades, you simply insert them in your printer, and voilà! How are these any different/better? Are people buying a full 8.5"x11" sticker sheet and cutting by hand with scissors? 🤔 what about the ones at 06:35 that have irregular shapes?
Hey sarah! I followed your tutorial and build myself an etsy print on demand store. It’s been a month and I’ve already got 2 sales and I only uploaded 15 designs. So I’m so grateful and thankful for your videos. For people who are wondering if you can do it, just give it a go! I spent the first couple of weeks thinking that maybe it’s not for me and out of nowhere the sales just comes in. Just have a bit of patience and keep going and your future self will thank you later.
I wish schools would teach us this type of stuff while we were young. Many people fall for the trap of getting a 9 to 5 which keeps you earning a fixed rate that doesn't increase or decrease. You have the same amount of money and that amount never goes up or down, which means that you will never be able to get ahead and become financially free.
I would like to know more about stickers. 1) print on demand sticker base cost is quite high and doesn’t allow prices I have seen on Etsy if you want a profit. Where are these stickers being produced? 2) Are people buying pre-made stickers (arbitrage), breaking the packages and reselling them? And 3) For the people buying sticker files, how are they using them? Are they printing them on sticker paper, using print-on-demand, or are they using them as transparent GIF files for overlays on other things? I would love to sell these but before I do, would like to know more about this hustle! Love your work…it has influenced my life greatly!
I can't help it. I probably catch flies every time I watch one of your videos. Sticker layouts? Not even stickers. Wow... I learn so many new things and had no clue that this whole world was out there.
Found you recently.. and love how you deliver information. It's giving me confidence to begin this e-commerce journey. I also love that you are realistic about the hard work it takes to build a business.. no get rich quick stuff. Thank you!!
@Sarah -- As always, you present valuable content in your videos. In this video, you talked about digital product ideas I had not thought about. Thank you! There's another reason why I enjoy watching your videos. That reason is listening to you speak. I've loved the sound of the New Zealand, Australian, and British accents - in that order. Be safe. Stay healthy. And, most of all, enjoy your vacation!
Hi Sarah, your videos are really helpful! I think anyway that real problem about Etsy are tags and keywords. Even if I research my keywords for tags and titles, following example of best sellers and write specific descriptions, there's really few chances that potential customers will find just me out of the sea of shops. So problem is not really creating products, but piloting traffic on my store. I tried Etsy ads but had poor results. :/
I'm expecting a job loss soon, but your videos are giving me ideas for replacing my income. I love working in Photoshop and Publisher, so this sort of thing is right up my alley.
Not in order...I just like lists: poster/wall art sticker designs cards-inspiration and affirmations checklists greeting cards-celebrations games for events date night card ideas label templates scavenger hunt lunch box note cards
Scavenger hunts aren't just for kids. As an adult, you've not only got me wanting to create scavenger hunt cards; you've got me wanting to go on some!!!! 🧡😃
I'm one of creative community peoole, so I can't wait to get new lap-top (which will in about a week😁) and start my shop! Head is spinning with ideas right now 😆
Thank you thank you thank you Sarah! Once again you have inspired me! My hobby: I watch Sarah's videos on passive income for inspiration in doing something productive with my free time 👌🤑
I'm most excited about making greeting cards because I always have a hard time finding one quickly in a store that says what I want to say, plus I think I could make creative cards that might sell really well! Thank you for the ideas. Your channel is great!
Important Question - if you want to make several of these kind of things like posters plus quiz sheets + affirmation cards should you make several accounts doing several things or used one account for everything????
Another great video, Sarah! I had NO idea that you had 'a speech and hearing impairment...' when you were a kid. I guess you showed those bullies! Good for you! Much Love from Santa Cruz, California. 😊 (PS - I love your accent!) Have an awesome vacation.
Hey, i made a opened a Etsy store and they close it same day telling me i violated some rules. I didn't uploaded nothing, didn't nothing on this and they close it same day. Why ? I'm so frustrated.
I was loading the dishwasher while listening to your video… when I suddenly stopped and thought … “what the heck is a “chicklist”??? *mental picture of baby chicks 🐤 or very amourable young ladies*. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hi Sarah. You've probably covered what I'm about to ask, in one of your very informative videos, but I haven't gone through all of them yet. You have several businesses for passive income, and my question is: do they all have the same name or are they all different names? cheers, and thanks for inspiring all of us.
Hello Sarah! I am thinking of giving this a try and opening my own store. However, there is one aspect that I have no idea how it is handled (and perhaps other people are wondering too?). That is RETURNS when using print-on-demand services. How does this process work? (Do you handle the shipping process yourself (book a pick-up with a shipping company, etc)? Or is it an integrated service provided by the print-on-demand service? Do you transfer the money to the customer yourself, or is this also integrated? What happens to the returned product: does it get shipped to the warehouse and re-sold, or does it get shipped to your house and you do whatever you want with it?) I hope you can reply!
And here I am slowly adding digital downloads using design and artistic skills only to find a new store come out with similar items as I'm finalizing mine. Guess that's why it's a bad idea to take 2 weeks to finish one product. Ooof.
Can anyone explain me how to set the size on canva relating to the printed final product? For example she shows how to do the 2 inches layout sticker, how do we do that so the customer will print a 2 inch sticker?
Only problem ive had Sarah is they deleted my account randomly after only being on it for 2months and all the designs were mine (non copyrighted) so im not a big fan of etsy
Please make a video about selling digital file. I've been interested Bu still unsure. How does it work? Where do we put the file? What if our file cant be download? Etc.
Hey! So for the blank sticker template, does it matter what type of template we use? For example, should we use the poster template, the A4 document, something completely different, or maybe even a custom size? Also, what file size would you recommend when we download the file?
Ohh these are good ideas. Brilliant video. Thank you for sharing. And easy to do. I still find it hard to believe people buy things like this only because it is so easy to do.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE MAKE MORE VIDEOS ON HOW TO MAKE DIGITAL FILE BUSINESS (ESPECIALLY WITHOUT BEING DESIGNER OR OUTSOURCING). ALSO, HOW DO WE RESEARCH NICHES?
Here I am watching someone who had a speech and hearing impediment when she was a child, while me as an adult can't even make a a sensible comment to appreciate her as my inspiration for my video ideas. But thank you for your videos anyways.
I hv a question...if we post our digital product on etsy on printable poster section...how do we get paid...do we need to always check it to ship our product to the buyers or it is autopilot sell?? Sorry im not good in english😔
Hi Sarah, this is a great example. Does etsy charge 20 cents to start. Or does this work per design. I am not sure if you have to pay before you start selling.
Hi Sarah! I’d love to know where you go to learn more about business and marketing? Maybe one day you could do a video on your favorite resources for us? Favorite books, podcasts, mentors, etc? Love your channel!
Hi Sarah. Great video as usual! Everything makes sense, except for one thing. I have Canva and it's awesome! When you go to Canva to create a Date card or a Greeting Card or a Affirmation Card etc, how do you know what size they are when you create a blank project? Or are you typing Date Card or Affirmation Card into the Canva search bar and using templates?
Hello Sarah! If I were to have a print on demand store on etsy and and digital download store like the ones you have spoken about in this video.. should I create two separate Etsy stores? One for the print on demand T-shirts and one for the downloadable digital lables. Thank YOU :)
Hey Sarah, thanks for the video! If you are a non-US resident and formed a company in the US for e-commerce, do you use your business bank account to get paid on Etsy or personal? Thanks and Happy vacation!
I'd like to add on to your "You don't have to be an artist to make...." You can also purchase a commercial license to other's clip art, and then viola, you're now an artist as well lol
But how do u create the digital download after u create the design u want and whatever product the design is goin on such as an affirmation card or something what happens then....do u post it for sale and when someone buys it then u print each thing out urself and then ship them out or what? And I'm old school and I live in the country in a very small town so when it comes to computers, I don't have a clue so I don't know how to create a digital download or anything else so as much help as I can get would be greatly appreciated🙏🏼💞thank you so much

Kia Ora Sarah! 'Passive mode' haha I like that, should put that on a t-shirt!. Anyway have fun, stay safe and enjoy you're holiday.

Can you sell art from Canva? Isn't it illegal?
@@PigeoneerToy people who have cutting machines can print then cut them out
Perhaps you could try slowing down a little although I'm pretty sure that's not your personality type.
Multiple streams of income is the key to break out of poverty. I wish school would teach us more of this.
please advise
Bro if you have mobile, internet and food and can comment on this video, you are already out of poverty....
they dont teach because the teachers themselves have fallen into that trap.
The only ones who can teach are ourselves
