Honestly, you are incredible! I was searching high and low for a video to give thorough steps and important information in regards to starting up. I felt so lost on where to begin but now I feel confident in going ahead. You explain everything in such detail which is very hard to find here on TH-cam. You are a hidden gem 💎 Keep being you 🤗 Thank you so much!
WOW!!! This was a great tutorial. So much valuable information. I will certainly be using this to make my first product. Most people will not/do not share information like this. Thank you.
This is the ultimate guide! I've been overwhelmed by the process of setting up an Etsy shop, but your tutorial made it so much clearer. Thank you for breaking it down step-by-step!
Sandra, I love your content. Can you please do a video on good sources to go to for outsourcing work to better focus on your main goals (i.e Video editing, etc.)? Thanks!
Hello, freelancer platforms like Upwork and fiverr have a large pool of talented professionals you can outsource work to. I am a freelancer myself. What would you need help with?
Thank you Sandra. I am going to watch this and take notes. I really love your videos because of their clarity and that they are full of great content. Thank you!
i learn a lot from your videos. im learning & trying to make some digital products before i create a shop on Etsy. Thank you so much for sharing valuable videos.♥♥♥
Hello @dailyme1111 may I ask you, have you create your Etsy shop? Did you pay the $15 fee? And did Etsy suspend your account or your account still good? I hope that you reply😢
Thank you for this video, it was beyond helpful. You mentioned assessing whether one has the skill to create a product or is willing to learn. Do you have any suggestions or resources for someone very interested in learning the design aspect?
Thank you for all this information. I would like to know if you have any tips on how I could sell artwork digitally for household items. I like the card ideas that were shown. I am a beginner here and not sure how you pick the size of the files for the customers to purchase. Thank you again for all the time you took to present this tutorial.
Hii! I base the sizes I choose on competitor research mainly! So if you have this particular digital product idea in mind, search it on Etsy and click on some of the listings on the first page. Read their description to see what sizes they are offering and that will give you an idea! Hope that helps :)
You did an excellent job Sandra. I know a lot of this information already because I have watched you before however, this one was much more detailed and I truly appreciate that. Online is changing at such a rapid pace that what worked last week may be already outdated 🤣 I know for a fact you are an excellent Mom because you are an excellent teacher. Quick question, how do we make icons in our description area?
Before investing in Etsy, it's crucial to research the reasons behind the frequent suspensions of many sellers and the lack of proper communication from Etsy. Building a brand on Etsy may not be worth the effort. Instead, I recommend focusing on developing your own brand. The time investment is similar, but the rewards of going the extra mile and creating a unique brand identity are much greater.
You have a very great point! I always recommend building your own brand as well. However I will say that Etsy is a great place to start when you have no digital marketing experience :). Since there is an existing audience to tap into. Both can be done at the same time. Personally when my shop got suspended, I appealed it and they were able to open it up in less than 10 days. It was an error on their end. I know it's annoying - it shouldn't happen at all in my opinion! But yes there are definitely pros and cons!
Does it cost money? O thought they take commission of the things that get sold but if im trying to make money how on Earth can i afford money to make it from scratch 😭

This was the best, most informative tutorial! Thanks so much for this. I'm wondering (as far as organization goes) where do you put your infographics/photo cards? Do you put them in the product folder or do you have a separate folder in the general Etsy folder? I'm pretty organized, but sometimes I tend to overthink. LOL Your process seems very close to how I would organize my files as well.
Super helpful video!! I've got a question about kittle, I researched a few different programs and was leaning towards corjl. Are you familiar with corjl? Would you still recommend kittle? Also do you know if you can sell using two different design programs from the same shop? Would appreciate your help!
Great video dear, it was very informative. I was especially impressed by your spreadsheet that you use for your idea generations. Is it available somewhere for download? On your website, or do you sell it on Etsy? If not you should consider doing so, I think it looks like a very powerful tool. I would love to get a copy of it somehow? Can you let me know where to find it? Keep up the great work!
I love all your videos, Sandra. I have a question, and hoping for your insight. I have 2 Etsy accounts for 2 different businesses (1x only three physical products; 1x POD). Would you suggest a new account for the printables, or can I replace the physical products with digital in the existing account? Thanks 😊
Thank you!! Amazing video! Do you have a video on how to create wall art in different sizes and create a listing? I attempted to make a listing for it before I found your video and wanted to make sure I created the file sizes correctly (I dont want my first reviews to be that the image printed blurry). Thanks for any guidance with this!
Hey thanks for the video! I sell digital images of beaches which I’ve targeted keywords for printing for wall art but I have discovered desktop backgrounds and iPhone wallpapers are great keywords too. Do I just changed my titles, keywords etc on my current listings or do I make new listings of the same products that just target the desktop wallpaper keywords?
hi, is there a video where you explain how to create sets of digital wall art to sell on etsy and above all how to upload them to the etsy shop? meaning, what measurements do you enter?
Have you opened an Etsy seller account and what measure have you put in place setting up your store? Those are the first thing needed to be done, then we can talk about Designing and listing of those products.
Hi Sandra! Just curious on what you recommend if you have two slightly different target niches, do you recommend two separate shops or just one shop with multiple niches aka a general store? Does the algorithm care?
I know this is off topic, but for one of your future videos could you make one about how to create flash cards/ affirmation cards using Kittl? I know you made affirmation cards using Canva but can you make one using kittl
Can i use Ai generator to create everything and then post an etsy listing and Ai generate a shop policy on etsy ?? Its kind of confusing for me and Ai generator would help me to create everything perfectly.
Thanks for the video Sandra. I just created Etsy shop but I was asked to pay "one-time set-up fee" which is US$15. They said "this fee helps us invest in support for new sellers and enhanced security checks to protect our trusted marketplace". So how, should I pay it? But I'm confused because in many TH-cam no one mention about this. Please help me😭 It's in "share your billing info" section.
Ok! Now I see many sellers complaining about the $15 fee which they paid but later on the shop was PERMANENTLY SUSPENDED. Ouchh I'm scared. Do you hear anything anywhere Sandra? Please share
Hi! I know this has nothing to do with this video but you might know the answer. Im confused about the Canva Education account. I was about to buy it from Etsy because it's really cheap, but found out that I won't be able to sell printables made in Canva Education. I don't get it. I know others are doing it, but Im worried about copyrights.
Did anyone ever think to themselves...who cares about Etsy? What about just creating and selling on other platforms? I'm saying this because I dont like Etsy and the politics and I don't shop off that old site. Shopify, Printify, etc show some vids on that. And I been following you, your way to fast for beginners.
Have you ever encountered this Persona requirement upon opening an account on Etsy?I'm just wondering that you did not show it here in this video or because you already have a shop before that is why it didn't required you?please enlighten me with this thank you!
I just made my first bookmarks looking at your video, wish me luck ^_^ I couldn’t use the kittl template design in that video tho, it just said that it has been shared and showed me image but had no option to use. Are digital prints free for them to use to sell? As in, can they then make physical copies of it and sell on Amazon for ex ?
@@SandraDi TY ^_^ I mean the people who download it, I wish to print and try selling on ecommerce site as well, tried getting them printed and they turned out well. So if I sell digital copy, does the user then have right to create their own listing of physical copies of it ?
I'd like to know if you can tell me the difference between Kittl and Canva. I have little design experience or knowledge. I've ben using Canva for a couple years and it's been a slow-going process. One reason is that the elements in Canva are restricted. Any ideas I've tried to create to sell have been due to lack of artistic creativity and not understanding how to design from scratch. Is Kittl worth my time to try and learn from scratch, or should I continue using Canva? I absolutely love and cherish your work. I've digested much of it, but now it's time to get off the fence and do the real work: taking action. I once asked if you did consultations but you were pregnant and the timing wasn't right!
Hi Sandra, there might be something wrong with the link to the Free Digital Product Roadmap. I submitted my email but there's nothing come to my mailbox. Please check it again!
Btw, A4 is not an Imperial Page Size, it is an International Page size used around the world, therefore it is in millimetres. If you are going to sell an A4 page, especially sellers, they should know the International paper sizes and that format is not in inches. A smart seller understands or should learn both page size systems AND both measurement systems. Digital art is all about measurements and mathematics.
@@SP-free very good point!! When I looked it up, it showed me both in cm and in inches. I also noticed some sellers clarifying what the size is in inches so I decided to go with that. Your advice totally makes sense as well!
Hey I'm facing some problems in setting up my new shop. My country is not in the list of countries in the " How you'll get paid section" so I accidentally selected united states but now I am unable to change it. Please help 🙏
Hello I'm putting this comment here because I don't see your email listed. Last year I bought an ebook bundle from you where you collaborated with other women entrepreneurs. I lost where I had it stored. Can you tell me, the name, where it was sent or any verifiable information, so I can find it on my end, please and thanks.
And you should mention that if your camera on the computer is broke or their fraud check arrest selfie doesn't work on your phone either....there's something wrong that they won't give a person time to fix these issues and they just block you from the Ancient Etsys site all together. It's weird and scary
Thank you, Sandra. I have a digital product that's been incredibly useful for TH-cam channels, helping me significantly boost views despite having very few subscribers. However, I'm hesitant to sell it on Etsy because of the high risk of idea theft on the platform. While I want to attract traffic, I also want to protect my idea. Do you have any advice or a video on this topic, particularly concerning Etsy?
Hii! Have you done some research on Etsy to see if similar products are selling on there? The reason I ask is because I wonder if that specific target customer is looking on Etsy for what you are offering! :) If so, it is always a possibility that people will try to "steal" your idea or create something far too similar. But from my experience, if you are offering a quality product, regardless of new competitors coming in, you will still make sales if your listing is optimized and you are promoting it consistently. I hope that helps a bit!
Honestly, you are incredible! I was searching high and low for a video to give thorough steps and important information in regards to starting up. I felt so lost on where to begin but now I feel confident in going ahead. You explain everything in such detail which is very hard to find here on TH-cam.
