WE HAVE A HOMEOWNER!!!!!! Such amazing news - congratulations 🍾

Woohoo! So glad you are back! I love that you got your house and am interested in seeing your reno projects. So much going on in your life right now.

When do you sleep? Congratulations you deserve it.

Also... CONGRATS ON YOUR NEW HOME!

Welcome back. Great to see you again.

Yay! You're back! Dang! You had an awesome August! And you're almost at a 1000! I'm having a problem being motivated to make more product. I'm also SLAMMED with work right now at the university I work at. July was a SUPER dry month for me. June was okay but I think it was the state testing still happening in Texas. I am kind of sad I didn't make a ton of back to school stuff. If I am completely honest, I saw ALL the B2S stuff and was just OVERWHELMED.

FIRST COMMENT! (still watching--will provide a comment with more substance in a bit)

Congrats on all the earnings! Excited as I am for back-to-school?

The thumbnails should be updated now - and you shouldn't see the gray areas on the sides. Your storefront looks great!!

you guys have school in July. Wow

Congrats! As a teacher pay teacher store prepping for the fall and going through this youtube journey ... hoping to follow throughout your journey. Right now I am in a AP bio and SAT (digital) focus space.

Bruser?!!??! Do you bend.And SNAP!? hehehe

Hey Miss Fred! Glad to see you back. Your storefront looks great. You are right about the size of the thumbnails, they are definitely looking different. I can't see it on my own storefront anymore on the backend like you but I clicked your link since the new storefronts haven't gone live yet. Maybe it will be corrected or at least I hope it will! I was just sharing with my kids about house hacking too. So excited for your journey!

So glad you are back! I like your new store look and name. Congratulations on your first 6 months!

Your store looks cute. It is said on the TPT sellers blog that thumbnails will be square as before. Thank you for the video✨

Ms. Fred, I can't wait to see your new store and banner.🎉

Thanks cutie

Oh! You went with a second store! Cool! Ready Freddy! That’s great! I meant to comment on that video but I’ve been so busy, I just didn’t have it in me. I’m glad everything’s okay. That resource you made looks awesome. I love that it’s digital resource and the whole dog and record store-super cool. I’m so intimidated to make an escape room because there are some AMAZING biology ones already. I’m just not sure if I can make some to that caliber. Did you design the images yourself? How many hours did it take to make an escape room? I haven’t done many resources this month. I think I only uploaded one in May (which should only sell in August/September). So my May sales are lower but it’s interesting to see a fully passive income this month. With my May money, I wanna take my wife out to a dinner date or make a charcuterie-on-our-porch date. She likes stuff like that. So, not a lot of money in May for me, but enough to do something with me wife.

I was wondering where you went! I hope everything outside of teaching/ product creation is going as smoothly as possible.

Wow you are one busy lady. Good for you. Enjoy your weekly videos.

Hey you, Whoop! Whoop! People are recognizing your store! Congrats! (*thanks for the Shout-out) (**i love our little community)🎉🎉❤

Pride and Prejudice is the only book that I am hot and cold and hot and cold throughout. I start and think, “Why am I doing this again? This man is a jerk.” Then I think, “This is too relatable.” Then I think, “He isn’t really a jerk.” And I end feeling optimistic.

I say go with a second store!

Hi Christa, there is no "one right answer" for this. Some will combine stores and others will have 2 separate stores. Personally, since the two niches are quite different, I would create the 2nd store. Yes, there will now be double the marketing, emails, RUclips!, but you want people coming to your store, knowing exactly what they are coming for. Just my two cents...

Go for it with a new store if that is what you want. For me I like combining it all in one place. But I get that won't work for some. So I say go for it

Thanks for doing this. I am seriously considering making a second shop for clip art. I just hesitate because then I would have to market 2 shops instead of one. 2 email lists, separate social media posts, etc. I just am afraid that my clip art shop might cannibalize my main store.

Have one store but use custom categories to differentiate music and ELA. There is a good nbc resource for music on TPT.

Way to go! Congrats on your tpt success!

Thanks for sharing. Just be careful be will steal your ideas.

Sounds like you’re doing great! You never know, you might be making 10,000+ a month soon. You’re doing awesome. The main thing is you started!

I’m a real one 🙌 I stayed til the end. I was also pulling weeds and let it play to the end. It was a fun sesh and funny! I’m so glad you’re having a great April and that it’s all PASSIVE. Hard flex 💪 I didn’t even think about Mother’s Day for TPT. And now… I have to think about Mother’s Day for my mom. I’m not a fan of MJ but because you said it’s awesome, now I’m curious about the musical. I’m trying to make a full curriculum for biology and forgetting all the holidays. I’m trying to get ready for August and September. I really hope I’m not shooting myself in the foot missing the seasonal stuff. Making a full curriculum takes SO MUCH TIME. I haven’t uploaded anything in a while because of the amount of work I’m putting into these full lessons. I think… I see David in the Marble. My mom says-worse thing ya wanna do is shoot your foot after you shot your other foot. I just hope I’m not doin that. As for the Earth Day product-hey even though it’s late, you now have one for next year. ***continues to chisel at the Marble***

OMG I just finished filming my Q1 progress/income report and I mentioned all the channels I follow to support other teacher's journeys!! Yayyy!!!!

I've just got one word for you, ma'am: "WOW" 😅🎉

Hi, we started TPT at exactly at the same time so I enjoy following you. You’re doing so well! Our earnings our similar too but you’re a little ahead

The balloons were fun! I was like WOOOOOO! TPT TUESDAY PARTY!!! 🥳🙌 Thank you for sharing your routine--it gave me some ideas for my appointments. I enjoyed your story time. It inspired me to get focused. I have a ton of projects and I think I'm a bit all over the place from being disorganized. I think it's neat how busy of a person you are--people tell me slow down, but like... why? LOL if I want to do a million things, I am going to do a million things. What is your goal for TPT? I know you are working on owning a home but do you have an income goal for TPT? I want to make 100k per year but I always wonder how much top TPT sellers are REALLY making. I was 93rd percentile this past month with 234 dollars made and I always wonder if the the top earners aren't making AS much as I wish they'd make. I remember hearing about a top earner making 1.8 million in 2012 (I think) and I wonder how much she is making these days. She is CONSTANTLY pushing out product (I follow her), but I wonder how much top earners are truly making off TPT alone.

Loved hearing about your routine. I am recently divorced, also saving for a house while working from home can and totally relate to a lot of what you shared. So proud of you, you are one busy girl and I love it! I used to juggle a lot in my previous life but I am now a bit more reformed and have been trying to finally focus on myself. So far so good! 🙃 Thanks for sharing!

My semester ended today and I now have until late August to be a full-time Outschool teacher and TPT creator! Working to grow the shop before back to school so that when the term "budget cuts" come back around the university, I'm not concerned.

Love your sweater ❤

There are a lot of Spring Breaks in March so sales can be down. Don’t get discouraged! Good luck.

Congrats on your week on tpt! You seem to have a lot of projects going on... How do you keep up?

Woo hoo! Girl, you had an AMAZING week in sales! I taught regular sciences and AP sciences (AP biology and AP physics) and it is SO much more fun than regular classes. You get to really dig deep into content and skill. What summer training are you doing? College Board? NMSI? Independent? I don’t know how it is for AP lit and lang buuut AP biology’s best summer training for me was NMSI vs College Board, AP Physic’s best training was an independent company. My tip is ask people at your training if they have any files they can share. I guarantee there’s one veteran there that’s a AP Career Teacher (they only want to teach AP). That teacher will have a drive of resources.

Awesome stuff! ❤🎉 I usually start with Frankenstein, but I guess it depends on what your kids have read in earlier years. Some AP teachers do thematic units, some do genre units, some do author studies. Check out my store. Hopefully, you can find something helpful, as I anticipate your helping me too. 😊 Keep doing whatchibdo, ma'am!🎉

So proud of you!!! I finally had my FIRST $50 day this month!! ❤

Wow! Congratulations 🎉

Congrats 🎉 on your first 100 subscribers! I keep forgetting to add my store. 🤦🏾‍♀️ It’s Miss Tamara Online, I’ve been really nervous to start my YT journey but I’m getting there.

Thank you for your vulnerability…I am under a year selling…what a whirlwind!

Thank you for making these videos - I look forward to them every Tuesday! I also am fairly new (started October 2023). My store is A Fresh Take. How exciting about possibly getting a house quicker than you thought - I hope the whole process goes well for you!

Hey Miss Fred! I’m glad you’re bringing in a good amount for your house. That’s freakin awesome! I also cute-ify stuff at work. Today, I had a meeting with a director in another department and my director. The other director was like wooooow, this is gorgeous. What software helped you make it?! My boss was like-oh she was a teacher! She’s great at making things look better! Lol No y’all, it’s TPT. I wanted to say that but my director was so happy I didn’t want to correct her. I’m on the fence about making RUclips videos on TPT. Now that I am studying for the MCAT, I don’t know if I can squeeze in the time.
