What video should I make next?
I am the first, I Love YOUR content and your famely, I want to start an Etsy shop but I dont know how, what product, ...? So I will show your content every day inshallah, how find trending neach please.. digital products
Thanks so much for watching! It's up to you what you want to sell, but I teach on my channel how to sell Print on Demand. I have very thorough step-by-step tutorials that will help you get your shop up and running and to start making daily sales. I’ve had the most success selling t-shirts and sweatshirts.
I plan on making more digital product videos in the coming year! I will be sure to make more trend research ones as well. I hope this helps!
@@brenondopp happy for this comment sir thank you
I wish you a successful 2023!
hey! just found your channel! do you have a tutorial how
to make your own digital tarot/oracle decks?
You are the only UA-camr that tells the truth that Everbee's monthly revenue numbers DO NOT account for sales discounts. There are so many content creators pushing everbee that don't tell the truth about the accuracy of the monthly sales numbers. Your video shows the proper way to account for potential revenue. I will watch more of your videos just based on your honesty. Thank You.
Thanks so much for watching and for your support! I would love for them to be able to account for potential sales discounts, but it is tricky because seller's prices can always change and they could be running a sale for a few days vs several days so it’s a little more difficult to track. With that being said though, it is still an extremely valuable tool to be able to find top performing listings and trends! Thanks for your comment! I wish you the best this new year!
not so fast buddy. If this youtuber really knew of digital products that could generate 30k per month he would be doing it, instead of telling you to do it and use his link to purchase some extension. He's as honest as whatever bee you're all talking about
@@brenondopp você trabalha em produto digital?
@@avamaria8447 I can point out Warren Buffet's success in the stock market. It doesn't mean I know HOW to do it. Sooo, what's your point?
@@JonLundgren what?
Brenon, you're one of the hundreds of UA-camrs that has really stuck with me. You're authentic and honest. I'm a Canadian trying so hard to make a go of it in the US. You've lifted me up more than you know.
Hi Rachel! Thank you so much for taking the time out of your day to write such a kind comment! It means a lot to me! Honestly, it's people like you and comments like yours that make me want to keep creating content. Please let me know if you ever have any questions! I'm happy to help the best I can. How are sales going for you currently? Do you have any video requests you would like me to make?
@@brenondopp I kid you not, if I succeed at POD, it's from your tutorials.
@@racheldodds8837 You got this!
@@brenondopp thank you. Those all big questions about your content...I've been using Canva for years and learned from you that I can use the arrow keys to reposition slightly. (Head smack). Keep doing what you're doing.
@@brenondopp I do I want to sell digital art but what sizes to sell?
That last store is literally a 3 minute drive from me, and I never knew how popular they were on Etsy 🤣 To be clear, they're NOT POD, they make everything in-house, are VERY attentive to quality, and excellent with customer requests. They have a brick & mortar store, they work CRAZY hours, and have a small staff, so that's def not a model that would be run out of a home and they actually end up working more time than a normal 9-5.
Wow! How crazy! Thanks for sharing! There is still the same kind of opportunity with the print on demand business model, but it will be WAY less work. Thanks for watching!
Thanks mate ☝🏽☝🏽
No problem 👍 Thanks for watching!
seriously, I've watched SO MANY videos to learn POD and by far just one of yours I stumbled upon taught me so much more than any of the others! Clear, detailed, but straight to the point info is invaluable. Thank you so much! Here's hoping for success!
You’re very kind! Thanks so much for taking the time to write such a nice comment! It means a lot! I’m so glad you learned some new tips in this video. Thanks so much for watching and I wish you the best this new year!
Fake comment.
Thank you for all this wonderful information. I'm only 4 months in (Etsy) and have only sold a handful of items. Thanks to you, I'm changing my products! Going digital and POD. This information has been the best I've found yet, and I've done a lot of research. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
Hi! Thank you so much for watching! I’m glad you enjoyed this video. Congrats on the sales you have had! There is SO MUCH opportunity with digital products and print on demand. As long as you are willing to do your research, experiment, and put in the work, it can become very lucrative and passive after you have laid the groundwork. I wish you a happy and successful 2023! You will succeed!
@@brenondopp Do you believe Marmalead is the best way to research SEO?
Your literally doing god’s work. Thank you for not talking to your viewers like idiots to get more views. You’re providing quality work.
I'm going to concentrate on my digital store next lol now that I'm happy with the sales from my clothing. I did run into an issue with not checking my pricing and took a loss on an item that sold a lot over the holiday but we live and learn! Can't let a big mistake get us down. Thanks for the great tips!
Hi Gloria! There is a lot of money in digital products! I also love that you don’t have to deal with any of the issues that come up with physical products like shipping delays and defective products. Selling digital products is definitely worth experimenting with! What type of digital product would you be most interested in selling? I’m still blown away by that digital planner example I shared! 🤯
Oh no! I’m sorry! This happened to us as well when we first opened our shop. Lesson learned for sure! Keep up the amazing work! I’m so proud of you and you should be extremely proud of yourself as well! Thanks for your continuous support! You’re one of the top commenters in our community and I greatly appreciate it!
@brenondopp I definitely am proud of myself but thank you! I've come a long way in the last year. You're a great support in this harsh etsy world.
As for the digital world I'm thinking of simple stuff like digital art from what I've already designed. Also the digital planners. I was into those before but my main store took off and I didn't have time to dedicate to the templates. They're definitely worth the trouble though. I wish you a great 2023! I know it's going to be so great. 👍
👍 Sounds like a good plan! That is a good problem to have! 😂 I wish you a wonderful and successful 2023 as well, Gloria! Have a great rest of your week!
Etsy fees SUCK.
plz i am a biggner can you help me ! can you giv me your instagra, count
Great video! I'm a digital seller on Etsy (for several years now) and your tips are spot on! Really takes a lot of work and research but potential is great!
Hi Olivia! Glad you enjoyed it! You’re smart for starting a digital product store years ago! I wish you a happy and successful 2023!
Teach me your secrets pls🙏🥺
When you start getting scammers you know your channel is doing something good ;) Thanks for the video - love Everbee
You’re awesome! Thanks so much for watching and for your support. I wish you the best!
I've just realized your channel. It will be useful my questions's answers about Etsy etc. Thanx from Turkiye, Ankara
Just a quick thank you note! Amazing numbers for the small effort - imagine if a bus driver or teacher or plumber could make the same money on REAL work that benefits society! 😱
Thank you and keep up the good work!
Straightforward video.. my easiest subscription on youtube so far.. pls make more videos like this❤❤❤
Thank you for your research - it saves us all time, so that's a BIG thank you. I wrote The Lincoln Clone and spent years on it with little revenue from it. So I'm plunging into digital, using my art background, and your honest comments are staffs. My husband has had two strokes so igniting extra income is up to me now. :)
Although the revenue numbers seem really high. I think some of the newer stores are using paid ads to bring in customers. They could have built a social media following or e-mail list and made organic sales but most likely they are doing paid ads somewhere bringing the total profit numbers much lower than what we are seeing in the revenue numbers.
Hi Lindsay! That is a great point; the total revenue I calculated did not account for potential ad spend. Showing if a seller is running ads or not would be an awesome feature Everbee should add in the future! Regardless if they are running ads or not, you know that those ads are converting and customers are buying the specific listing and categories I showed. I still think the examples I showed are great digital product recommendations that you could consider selling in the coming year as they have proven data that shows they're performing well. Thanks so much for your input and for watching! I wish you the best this new year!
Yeah, it’s the same old story, I’m afraid; it takes money to make money. I’ve been in POD for decades now (not really pushing as hard as I could have, though) and can still only dream of making this sort of money. What very little I’ve spent in online advertising in many markets has never brought in enough sales to cover the cost.
Exactly! marketing takes a lot of money so the profit is way smaller than those numbers.
Since a couple of days I got into etsy digital stuff and found your video right now. It might be 2 months old, but really appreciate your work and time. I already left a follow and will look up your channel. Thanks
Thanks for sharing , i'm about opening a store on Etsy and i was looking for ideas
That's so inspiring

Thank you!!! I am so glad that I found your video! Very helpful! Thank you!
You are so welcome! I’m so glad to hear that! Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much for this video man! Really appreciate it. I'm getting ready to open my shop this weekend to sell digital products. So happy to come across your channel. Time to wathc everythigng here. :)
Thanks for this info, it was really informative. I have a printable wall art store, but i was thinking of adding POD items to the store as well. Do you think thats smart? Or should i start another store to keep it niche specific ?
You are really good simple and effective. Won a new subscriber.
I’m so happy to hear that! Thanks so much for watching and welcome to the family!
This is a good video at 12:12 but I have to say, I will forever be indebted to you Gardner 😇you’ve changed my whole life I’ll continue to preach about your name for the world to hear you’ve saved me from a huge financial debt with just little investment in money market, thanks so much Ms Rose.
Hi there, I had little knowledge on predicting the stock market, but with Ms. Gardner weekly analysis and advise profits are guaranteed! I received three times my initial deposit in a week!!
very interesting stuff, 13:03 i felt a pause, Ms. Gardner gave me a wide option investing strategies, she introduced me to USD margin lending in which I was able to earn interest with no anticipated downside risk. She made my February a remarkable month!
I want to be financially free , I currently work 2 9-5 jobs and I’m struggling to pay bills along with my moms medical bills. I heard about forex a little while ago and was really interested and wanted to get into for the longest but I never had someone who could help. Can I get her contact? I need her assistance
@ROSEGARDNERBIS
I’ll try reach out to her after my work hours, with all the positive words I hear, this should be worth a try
i sell on etsy - craft supplies and jewelry
i've had over 5k sales and im working on adding some digital products (my main focus is digital stickers, possibly a planner and notebook to go along with them - i already sell some stickers on my ko-fi and people like them, but it has no reach compared to my etsy.., hoping eventually to add digital pet portraits like the one in my profile picture - just need to cut down my painting time! that one took about 12 hours.... far too long for a one-off commission, but that one was a gift for my best friend)
ive done print on demand (off etsy) for years already but i don't want to add that kind of thing to my existing etsy because i have 750+ physical products that i make myself and ship on my own, so it would be really confusing to customers
i think my biggest concern with digital products is just how etsy has a file limit (5 files, up to 20mb each..) and a lot of people aren't necessairly trusting of using google drive or dropbox :/
Thank you so much for all your information 🙏😊
I appreciate you sharing this information it open my eye to another level
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
You're an absolute BEAST!! My guy....this was perfect...first video ever watched of yours & u MADE me SUBSCRIBE... #BIGLOVE-PEACE&BLESSINGS 💯
Thank you so much for the kind comment and welcome to the family! It’s support from people like you that make me want to keep creating content. I wish you a happy and successful 2023! Thanks for watching!
Just found your channel through Heather Studio -- Great Content. One thing I would add -- is Affinity Photo and/or Affinity Designer as far as suggested tools. But I'd still probably use Canva.
Just getting started. You're soooo informative and helpful! Thank you. Just earned yourself a new subscriber 😊
So grateful I came across your channel! You have given me hope for a new career! Thank you so much.😊
Thank you Brenon for all the inspiring content. I think passive income may seem the biggest dream however personalized digital items are a better way to differentiate for new Etsy sellers. Otherwise i see many shops that purchase and list the same product over and over again. That is why you see a shop that sells 9 printable posters for 6 usd, that exact same design you show is in like hundreds of shops…
You’re right! Personalized products are a great way to stand out but won’t be nearly as passive. I still believe you can create a product that is not personalized and still stand out though! It's up to you what you would like to do. Thanks for sharing your thoughts! I wish you the best!
Very helpful video and straight to the point. Thank you!
Thank you! Great info ❤
Thank you very much Brenon !!!
Looking for this type of video long time. Thanks dude.
No problem! Glad you liked it! Thanks so much for watching!
Brilliant content!! Thank you for sharing this information!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks so much for watching! I wish you great success this new year!
Thank you . This was a great video. Good information and insight.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks so much for watching!
Sorry for being a luddite… but what is a preset? Sure, I can go and google the answer, but your video is about digital products and I honestly think it’s worth explaining what each of these ideas are.
Thanks man . I'm from Morocco . Your UA-cam content is awesome.
Another one is colouring books. People will buy colouring pages for different design and niches. Check it out.
Enough said, subscribed! Thank you 😊
So lets say you want to make multiple digital products can you post them all in store
very informative video .... thanks for sharing your knowledge ... I am planning to open a shop on etsy and this video provide me very good information for listing .... thanks again
Can you show a video showing how to create and sell a digital print on etsy (for dummies).
I think you could totally rock a toga.
I’ll take that as a compliment! I wouldn’t mind wearing one! 😂 Thanks for watching!
Brilliant video! Many thanks.😃
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!
Hi Brenon, these ideas are really great, thank you for your insight and your great attitude as a UA-camr! I was just wondering what you think - I started using Everbee today, and the data is provides is great. However, the one thing it doesn't show is keyword / product competition, so using the extension, you have no way of knowing how much competition you are up against. I think that is pretty essential as something like Presets looks great on paper with a high volume of searches, but in reality it might be too difficult to get your product seen because of the competition. I was just wondering your thoughts on this when using the extension?
Hi Joe! I agree with you that going into a niche with high competition may be more difficult, however I’m a firm believer anyone can stand out in any niche if they can create something that is unique and different enough. There are other tools out there like Sale Samurai and e-Rank that can give you more data on competition, but at the end of the day, it all comes down to bringing something new to the table in order to have success. Find what is working and improve upon it to make it better or different and you will succeed. If you haven’t watched the intro to this video I did yet, I highly recommend it. I share how 3 businesses entered a saturated niche and had great success by being different. ua-cam.com/video/w5fGeDSxOt4/v-deo.html I hope this helps! Thanks so much for watching!
@@brenondopp Hi Brenon, thank you so much for getting back to me on this. I really appreciate it. What you have just said is very inspiring - you are absolutely right. Uniqueness and originality is the key. I have just subscribed to your channel and i will check out your video recommendation.Thanks again.👍
I agree, how flooded is the market is important to take in consideration.
The other important factor, how much is being spent with online advertising? It's foolish to think simply creating a product will sell itself. This is NOT the movie to Field of Dreams - Build it and they will come (LoL).
Advertising and Marketing is KEY to bring in paid customers. WHY is keywords, social media posting, paid ads on social media, etc not mentioned? These factors are just important (if not more important) to have a successful product.
I have followed your video step by step to get my store open. You are extremely thorough and that has helped me. Any tips on what to maybe change to get a sale. Should I just keep adding shirts to my store until one finally sells? I currently have 5 designs on there for about a month and haven't made one sale.
Thank youuuuu! This is sooooo great!!!!!!!
You’re welcome! I’m glad you liked it! Thanks so much for watching!
Looks like I need to diversify… great video! I love all the breakdowns
Money to be made with digital products! Thanks for watching! I wish you great success this coming year!
Thanks buddy for sharing good stuff
You bet! Thanks so much for watching!
Thank you for all your info! 😁
This is a great video showing which niches are killin' it on Etsy. I'm blown away by that digital planner example, WOW. I'm sure it's one to follow for sure. I have an Etsy store started back in 2019 but each listing is for a physical product that I paint on and ship it out myself. And as you can imagine, this takes a LOT of time to do, and the returns is not that great, though a small profit can be had.
I'm thinking of creating a new store selling digital products, and since my love for art is high, was wondering if digital art or planners is the way to go.
Hmm, some things to consider.
Hi Stuart! There is a lot of money to be made in the digital product world! You do need to create something unique and different in order to stand out and succeed. The digital planner example I shared is extremely impressive! I almost didn’t want to share it, it's so good. 😂 That is so awesome you have your own handmade Etsy shop! Selling physical products that you create is definitely more work but can be very rewarding if you don’t mind the work or use it as a creative outlet. You need to make sure you're charging for the value you're bringing! I highly recommend doing your research and figuring out what type of digital product you can create and sell. It's definitely still work, but can become very passive after you do the upfront work! As for running with digital art or digital planners, why not try both? You can see which one does better for you and then go all in. You could also consider which one you enjoy making more so you can maintain it long-term. I wish you the best! This is your year! Thanks so much for watching!
@@brenondopp thank you sooo much for this feedback and advice. Do you have any specific videos that goes into more detail on researching a digital product. Yes, I do have Everbee, and that has helped me immensely.
@@brenondopp i happened upon you tonight while I was trying to sleep but still couldn’t get my head to stop thinking. I am a 58 year old woman who has recently been awarded custody of my two grandchildren, my girl is 4 months old and my boy is 4 years old. Their parents are not doing their job taking care of them so I have no choice but to take care of them and love them. They are just so special and you can’t help but feel so blessed to have them in my life and my heart. I can’t work out of the house anymore because I have to stay home with them so I have to find something to do but I don’t know how to do this process you have explained to me but I’m so confused. Oh did I forget to mention that I was served with an eviction notice last Friday and I have until Monday April 3rd to get out because my landlord has decided to sell my house and I’m going to be homeless with no money and I’m going to have to find a way to get my babies somewhere to live. I’m sorry if I’m being rude but I just found you to be a very nice person and seem easy to talk to. Thank you for listening. Maybe you can help me out with this and teach me how to make $ 😊
I think with Pod on etsy, u have to show that u are using third-party people for shipping and printing on shop policies, but these shops don't have anything like this on there? So I could be possible they are printing and shipping themselves, great idea tho if you can pull it off for sure!
Hi! That is correct, and after making this video, I realized that as well. With that being said though, it’s still the same type of business with the same kind of opportunity, just WAY less work if you partner with a print provider instead of doing it yourself! Thanks so much for watching! I wish you the best!
This is all amazing. I did start some app icon packs a while ago back in 2020 and I made a few sales here and there but not nearly as much as these ones have. My main question I guess is marketing? How would I get to this point because I don’t think you can get to this type of income simply by making them and uploading them?
Hi Lisa! You can consider running Etsy ads if you would like or external ads through Facebook or other sites. To be honest though, I would first focus on creating very high-quality listings with proven SEO to rank organically on Etsy. Once you have a listing that starts to gain some momentum and is already performing well, then you can consider running ads on it. I wish you the best! Thanks for watching!
great video! thanks a lot for sharing
Glad you liked it! Thanks so much for watching! I wish you a successful 2023!
Big Thanks for Making This Video.. You Are Awesome..
You’re welcome! Thank you for watching! I’m glad you enjoyed it. Are you currently selling any digital products?
thanks for this awesome info
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
I just got the Star Seller badge on my POD store.. good news but I’ve only made 49 sales in 1 year. And I probably make 10% profit per sale. So it’s not difficult to figure out I may as well just switch to digitals, without the hassle of print providers and customer service.
I started another store but I simply do not have time to work full time, be a dad and run 2 Etsy shops + other hustles. So my question is.. would you suggest I just phase out my clothing and bring in digitals?
Thanks again Brenon, I’m a fan.
Hi! Congrats on receiving the Star Seller badge and congrats on your 49 sales! How much time would you say you have been putting into your POD store? I personally would recommend sticking with your POD store and opening a separate shop for digital products, but I do understand you are extremely busy and why you may not want to do that. I just have seen how much opportunity and potential there is with POD so that’s why I would recommend sticking with it. At the same time though, if digital products are more appealing to you because of the reasons you mentioned, then go for it! As you saw in this video, there is a TON of money to be made with digital products. This is a hard question for me to answer because both have the opportunity to be extremely lucrative but I totally understand if you don’t have the time for both. If you feel like you have given your POD store as much attention as needed and you’ve done everything you can and still feel like you’re running uphill, then I would consider switching 100% over to digital products. From what I've experienced, most people's biggest issue if their shop is struggling is not creating relevant designs that people want and are searching for. The recipe for having a successful POD shop is to create trending designs that someone wants to buy, using high-quality mockups, and using proven SEO. If you can master these three things, you will see your store start to take off. Ultimately, I believe that the business model that pays but also gives you the most freedom and flexibility to honor your priorities is the most valuable. Let me know what you decide to do! I'm rooting for you! You got this!
@@brenondopp thanks for the super helpful comment, I’ll let you know what I decide…
I accept I’ve probably not given it 100% but I had 100 listings at one point
It’s hard to get evergreen designs and find listings that are selling, but it can be done… Christmas jumpers get lots of views and sales
I want a mock-up store eventually.. I’ve already set up a digital store but hardly touched it
Thanks again
I didn't know a thing about presets, people can nowadays monetize everything, lol. Defyingly I'll keep this in mind.
The options are endless! 🤣 Thanks for watching!
Can you please make a video on the item size and weight while creating the listing on Etsy I am so confused what to write in those sections.
Would you say Etsy is better than Shopify or would it be better to do both?
Love your channel, keep it up

Hi Susy! Great video recommendation! Thanks for sharing!
Good hint but I have not made sales on Etsy despite having most of these items. Just spending money.
You have to keep experimenting and creating new digital products to sell until you find a product or niche that works! Sometimes it take a fair amount of trial and error before you see success, but I think you can minimize that period with strategy and proper research. Keep with it and good things will happen! Thanks for watching!
@@brenondopp Thanks
Please honest guide .which is better print on demand or digital products for newbies ?
love it man
Thank youuuuuuu 🎉❤
I wouldn't be surprised if that print shop is acused of not respecting copyright in selling those museum prints of matisse, picasso and so on...
Would you recommend a POD shop to also sell the design as a digital download?
Hi! I personally wouldn’t sell my own designs I sell in my POD shop as digital items. Reason being is if I create a design in my POD shop that takes off for me and becomes a best seller for me, the last thing I would want is to sell it to hundreds of other POD sellers to sell in their store. That's my personal opinion though, so choose what you would like to do! Thanks so much for watching! I wish you the best!
@@brenondopp I'm going to be opening a wall art store, so as I mentioned in another comment I'm considering offering both digital download and print options. I considered the point you make regarding someone buying the download and then reselling, but can't that be taken care of in regard to stating the digital download can't be used commercially? As the copyright holder you get to set the terms of that transaction.
@@flickwtchr Yeah, you can! I think it's important to state your terms in the listing. I also think wall art is a little different than selling your POD designs in the same listing because it's pretty typical to offer both a digital download option they can print themselves or a physical copy option, but you won't really be able to regulate whether they share or re-sell the file or not. Hopefully most people will honor the terms you set!
I was shocked with how much Etsy take per sale, sold my first digital item for 4.50 only to receive 0.70 after all the deductions
Hi! Etsy charges a $0.20 listing fee any time your listing sells, a 6.5% Transaction Fee, and a 3% + $0.25 payment processing fee. It’s important to know your total fees before deciding on what you want to charge to ensure you are making the profit that you want. There are a few great profit calculators you can use that will account for all Etsy fees to help you price your products correctly. I've been using Everbee's calculator if you want to check it out! Here's a link: www.everbee.io/?via=brenon You'll be required to make a free account in order to use it, but the calculator is free to use and very useful. All things considered, I think it is well worth the fees to be able to sell on a massive market place with 40 million + buyers. I hope this helps! Thanks so much for watching!
Digital products on etsy quite interesting
Thanks alot bro ❤❤❤🌸
You’re welcome! Thanks for watching!
The shops that have been up for 2 months are using ads on social media and Google. Doing ad campaigns like this is not passive.
TWO questions. I am a commercial artist who wants to retire! Can I upload my hand drawn artwork and create a PNG in say, Canva or etc? 2. Do I have to create a separate etsy store for digital and pod ? Can I combine everything because I want to add digital wall art to my store....I can draw or paint anything! Portraits, animal portraits, etc. Thanks , I just found your video and have subscribed!!!
Yes, you can do that if you want to! I personally would recommend opening two separate shops: one for your digital products and one for POD products. This will allow it to be more cohesive for your customers and easier for you to manage. That is my personal opinion though. It’s up to you what you do! I wish you the best! Thanks for watching!
@@brenondopp what if you need it to go under one business name?
Finally, someone who says "niche" like me! Lol Great video! New subscriber here.
😂 Thanks so much for watching and for the sub! Welcome to the family!
It would be interesting to see revenue fluctuations per shop and the amount of no to low revenue
Hey I wanna start by saying thank you all ur videos past and present r so helpful...if I did apparel is it OK to do digital downloads on same store?
great video! very informative :)
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
Thank you!
You’re welcome! Thank you so much for watching! I wish you great success this new year, Melanie!
Very informative and useful. Could you please guide me on how to sale the oil/acrylic paintings digitally on Etsy? Who will be the fulfillment partner? Kindly guide and help.
Great video, Brennon! Going into 2023 and per your experience so far in POD, What are your thoughts on focussing on a single POD vertical like apparels(t-shirts, hoodies, socks) and then creating designs for multiple niches like sports and outdoor enthusiasts designs, dog dad and dog moms, baby & mom tees for this single POD vertical ? Or would you suggest sticking to only 1 niche rather like a POD store for dog owners and selling different POD items like tees,mugs,stickers, hoodies etc for multiple breeds and multiple designs on this store? I believe going into 2023 it will be extremely important as a store owner to go all in on presence on social media channel due to increased competition on Etsy so I am thinking if I focus only on 1 niche then it would be much better for my social media strategies but would like to hear your thoughts on the above since you have years of experience in this POD space, thanks ahead of time!
Hi! I 100% recommend creating a general store on Etsy and tapping into several different niches and products. It is so important to experiment to find what works. After doing so and you find something that sells really well for you, then you can consider niching down and doubling down on it. We first started out with a niche specific store but then we shifted to a general store, and that is when we started to see success and consistent sales. Don’t limit yourself to what you can sell is my personal opinion. I understand your concern with it being easier for social media and building a brand, but still I think it is smart to create a general store unless you already have a niche you are super familiar with and know will do well. If you're wanting to build a brand on social media, people connect with your brand if they connect with you. If you want to run with a niche you're passionate about and can connect to your following with, then maybe you can consider niching down from the start. This is my personal opinion though, so do whatever you think is best for you! The biggest perk of creating a general store is it enables you to have endless options of designs and products you can create. After several months of selling, we honed in on what was working for us and you will most likely end up doing the same, with which you can then consider really building your brand with if you'd like. I hope this helps! Thanks for watching!
@@brenondopp Thanks a lot Brenon you always give detailed responses and I respect you for that!Just 2 last questions,I have a goal of making 1000 listings within 1 month on Etsy since have time to work on my store full-Time, is this is a good goal to pursue? Also let’s say if you were to open an Apparel store, would you go about naming it as let’s say XYZ studio or XYZ Apparel? Just curious what you think would appeal the most to customers in a brand name whether studio or Apparel, thanks!
@@brenondopp hi, so after doing multiple items on a general store and finding out what worked for you did you turn that general store into a single niche store or did you end up making a separate account for that niche?
Not sure if you've done a video on it but how can a NEW person make it on Etsy? From what I've been seeing, seems like there is a LOT of competition and you need literally hundreds of listings just to make a few sales. Please correct me if I'm wrong. Thank you.
Hi! I recommend watching all of my videos because I teach you exactly how to “make it” on Etsy as a new seller. Also, here is a video where I talk about this exact topic: ua-cam.com/video/w5fGeDSxOt4/v-deo.html There is still just as much opportunity on Etsy as long as you are willing to create high-quality listings that are unique and different! Don’t miss out on the opportunity because you hear other people tell you Etsy is too saturated. I wish you the best! Thanks for watching!
Ty
I have a doubt, for print on demand you need to have funds to pay the order ? or you don't need ? thanks for your videos, soon I will start selling my art on etsy, your videos give confidence to start the adventure.
Hi! I explain how the payment process works in this video: ua-cam.com/video/x0XpnDJ9jMo/v-deo.html Start at 5:41! I hope this helps! I’m excited for you to get started and to hear about your future success! Thanks for watching!
I have the Premium Canva account and use if for my real estate career making flyers for my house listings. I'm definitely going to check out the Digital Marketing, I have 20 years experience in real estate. Also quick question, for the digital art, can I use my own photography I've taken over the years?
Wow! That is awesome! This would be the perfect niche for you to go into because you have so much experience with it already. Yes, you are allowed to use your own photos that you have taken. I wish you the best! Thanks so much for watching!
I need to quit my job and need a step by step to do all this stuff. Brenon, how do I start?
Is there a way to find out if an Etsy seller uses ads to promote their product and how much they spend on advertising?
Hi Lee! As of now, there is no way that I know of. This would be a great tool to create though! The only way you can know if they are running ads is if you see it in search results with the “Ad by Etsy seller” beneath the listing. This won’t tell you how much they are spending on ads though. I hope this helps! Thanks for watching!
Greetings from Pretoria, South Africa 🇿🇦
I have just now subscribed to your channel. Can you make a video showing how to create a digital planner, please?
Hi! Thanks for the sub and welcome to the family! That is a great video idea that I'll put on my list for the future. Thanks for the recommendation!
Digital planners are hyperlinked pdf files but these successful examples have so many pages that are linked. It is not so basic as it seems so you need to learn and use Adobe indesign or affinity publisher.
This was so good. My mind is brewing. There are so many opportunities to make $. sheesh.
Thank you for work, I was wondering if corel draw and corel draw photo work for creating digital products beside illustrator and canva.
Thank you
Hi! I’ve never personally used Corel draw but it looks like it is a more technical design tool like Illustrator. If that’s the case, then yes, it should work great! Thanks so much for watching! I wish you a successful 2023!
@@brenondopp thanks a lot 👍
so im going to be starting in etsy mainly starting with digital products but i was also thinking on doing something with printify and printful as well. do you think it would be best to have two seperate shops for both digital and printify products or maybe have it all in one shop just in different categories?
It's up to you! Personally, I would open a separate store specifically for print on demand to keep my two shops cohesive and make it easier/cleaner for me to run them both, but that's just my opinion. I hope this helps! Thanks for watching!
I hear the print on demand platforms are overwhelmed because of so many new people trying to get in in this.
Hi Denise! Print on Demand is definitely becoming more and more popular, but I think there's still a lot of opportunity. Thanks for watching!
I would like to know what t-shirts to sell and how to price them? Thanks
What the diference between Etsy and Printful?
Hi Brenon
Thank you very much for this insight.
I just want to restart my business on Etsy, because my previous shop was banned and closed permanently.
And today found your video here. Thank God.
One question. I noticed these Etsy sellers usually have one theme on their shop, such as specializing in custom illustration, POD, digital stickers & emote, digital planner, etc.
If I have several product categories to sell on Etsy, should I open 1 shop to serve everything, or open several shops specializing in one category? Thank you for your attention.
Same doubt here
It's good you are using the real price not the full one you see in everbee... But the amount of sold items is also far away from accuracy - I would say Everbee and Alura are showing results all sellers really wish to have 😂 For my now shop it was showing outstanding 1.1k (sold items * price with discount) when in reality it was... 600$ before fees and ads. With older items it gives more "fantasy like" data when it is trying to hit monthly numbers.
