Everything You Need To Know About Selling Printables On Etsy For Passive Income!
So do you recommend selling your OWN trademark products on Etsy? I don't see any videos on youtube recommending that. I have a few trademarks for clothing and i want to just list them on ETSY.
Hey there! You can absolutely sell your own trademarked items on Etsy! However, to sell on Etsy, your items don't necessarily need to be trademarked, you just need to make sure you aren't infringing on other peoples trademarks :) I hope that helps! If you're interested in joining a business community, I'd love to talk to you more! You can jump on the waitlist here: www.atouchofla.com/community
THANK YOU!! I think you're the second person, among so many, who've said (in another post below) to follow our passion! I've heard so much "don't just make what you like but what other people like"... I'm going to make what I love making and I KNOW there are other people out there who love them too!
Hey girl. I am so glad this resonated with you. Yes! I think you need to start with your passion FIRST, and then start looking for what will sell :) I am wishing you all the luck with your business!!!
Thanks Lindsay. Will run through your guide.
Thanks for coming by friend! I also have a masterclass going on right now that you can check out: www.atouchofla.com/masterclass. xoxox
Does the Canon PIXMA PRO-200 Wireless Professional Inkjet Photo Printer Have duplex printing
I’m not sure what that means? Do you mean double sided? If so I can’t speak for the 200 but the 100 does not.
Love this ❤
so glad it resonated with you Aimee!
Very helpful video! I'm just learning some of this and I do have questio. I saw your article on paper and I'm wondering...can you make an actual invitation with 80 or 110 lb paper with a Cricut? Does it write well on the invite vs using a printer?
So glad it was helpful! To answer your question if you are using a Cricut to do writing then it doesn’t matter the weight of the paper because Cricut can write on any type of paper. :) the only time it really matters is when you’re doing a print then cut project so you’ll have to use the printer and then cut it but if you’re just using the writing capability with the cutting machine, then it really really doesn’t matter what weight of paper you use. Does that make sense?
@@atouchofla Thank you so much for answering. I’m so surprised to hear this. I guess I thought the pen may not write well on thicker paper. No one talks about making invites on a cricut only printers so this is great to know. I just got a cricut and want to try some cards and invites with just some simple font writing. I appreciate your time and answering. I also look forward to viewing more of your videos! 👍
@@mcharron4122yes you should experiment on different paper with your machine! You’ll learn a lot! ❤ thanks so much! Let me know what other videos you need 😊 xoxo
OMG!!! get to the point of the title!
Greetings! I recently stumbled upon your Udemy course and I must say, it's truly impressive! I am thrilled to have the opportunity to work with you and help you devise custom-made strategies to increase enrollments, generate positive reviews, and drive sales. It would be great to connect and discuss further details. Looking forward to hearing back from you! Best regards.
Can it take up to 300 gsm card and thanks for the info on the inks
Hey girl! I actually just wrote this blog to help with this question. I found a few that go a little bit higher in heaviness: atouchofla.com/the-best-printers-for-heavy-cardstock-paper/ Let me know if you have questions. I haven't gotten around to creating a RUclips video on it yet though! If you think it would be helpful, let me know :)
Thank you. For saying about the photo listings however then you may have customers say ‘’BUT IT DOES NOT LOOK LIKE THE PICTURES’’. Ok then what would be the response back??? I subscribed and I thank you for the tips
Hey Girl! Thanks for your question, and I am so glad this helped you! The way I would answer that question is that there are specific ways to list your photo without just straight up uploading your photos. For example, you could put your printable in a frame, you could have it sitting on a clipboard, or you could print it out and take actual pictures of it. I explain all of how to do this inside my signature course, The Abundant Girl's Guide to Passive Income with Printables on Etsy. :) You can get on the waitlist here: atouchofla.com/join - but if you are super interested now, just message me on Instagram and we can chat more (instagram.com/atouchofla_partydecorations) I hope this we helpful!
Just changing the title of a 2-year-old video to say 2024 doesn't fix the issue that it is two years old.
That's funny because it's still helping people even 2 years later.
GREAT!!! I needed this video. Thank You sez Billy O'Damit
Also I love how helpful you are. I love that you love creative things and made things like party designs. That seems so fun and fantastic. I love that you’re helping women to make money and create artistic products. It is so positive and encouraging. I’m just starting and don’t know much about business. I really hope to learn more and I am so hopeful. Thank you.
You are so welcome! I am so glad you are here and this is helping you! So honored you are here! xoxo
Hello A touch of LA I have been watching your videos And I’m grateful for information you share. I am wondering, would you be able to talk more about trademarking a brand and if you should compared to copyrights, and DBA? Do you always suggest getting a brand name or business trademarked? Can a dba or copyright of the brand name save a brand from getting into trouble from others that trademark a business under the same business name regardless of if it is the same type of brand? I am hoping to create a clothing brand. Thank you for all your videos.
Hey Savanna! I am so sorry I must have missed this comment! I am so glad that it resonated with you! I don't necessarily believe in trademarking your name, unless you think it's a big part of your brand. You can trademark anything in your business and that will help to protect you from other's stealing the name. What are you thinking of trademarking? Also! If you're interested, I am going to be launching a community of creative business owners soon, where we can talk about all this stuff! If you're interested, you can get on the waitlist here: www.atouchofla.com/community :) Hope to talk to you soon! xo
I think how having FEARS that stops me from trying at all. I have to start having FUN that I would enjoy from creating digital products/printables. If they sell, yes wonderful! If they don’t sell, it’s okay! Why? Because I’m having FUN making them, isn’t that what matters the most?? Right? 😊
It’s an amazing book! A perfect way to encourage an idea that a child has. It’s true children have greatest imaginations! But as adults, we do have great ideas, but are afraid to share because of ridicule. Even appear to be silly because we are adults! Really, it should never make us stop from trying out our ideas!
That is something I noticed the two times I took your masterclass, it's fully live. That was a pleasant surprise. 😁
Loved having you there Aimee!
IT WORK OMGG
Great book, simple but so true. All the books sound like a great read. Thanks for sharing.
would you recommend your printer for printing obituaries or a laser printer?
I love this! I have been a huge believer in manifestation, but the way you explained it, with the time travel and showing yourself a photo of you having accomplished it really hit home in a way that it never has before! Thank you. Love you content!
I love that you enjoyed it! Thanks so much for watching! If there is any other content you'd like, I'd love to hear ;) xo
What you were doing was research. It was a different kind of research than the keyword research - you were doing real world research. Old school style. lol
I appreciate you saying that!! 😊😊😊 yes that’s exactly right! 😘😘
Funny you should post this today. My Facebook group has been crickets since I opened it up a couple months ago and invited a handful of friends, But they didn't join and I just didn't do anything else, you probably know the feeling, and it wasn't until just this last Friday that one of my Facebook friends finally joined, and it was then that I thought "Oh! I should really go and invite a lot more friends," and now I have 19 people in my group. Literally, 3 days later and I have 19 people in my group. And they're talking and engaging. 🤯 And ironically, that first person that joined left the group sometime in the middle of the night. So, you're not wrong. I was waiting for permission. We are such creatures of habit and submissiveness, and we need to start standing up and taking the leap for ourselves without waiting for somebody else to say it's okay.
Do you have any recs for epson eco tank printers that prints 100+lb papers?🥹
Sadly I don't! I am so sorry!
What would you say the price per page is in terms of ink usage? )or how often do you have to change cartridges)
Hey there! I probably change one of the ink cartridges every few months. It is hard to say because there are so many of them, and it really depends on what you are printing. I used to use my printer a lot more for my business, but I don't use it as much any more for that. I typically use it for home projects and things of that nature. A good example is in December I decided to print out a bunch of 11 x 14 photos with the printer. I did about 5 of them and changed a few of the ink cartridges at the beginning of that project. It is March and I don't think I have changed them since. As mentioned, I recommend this knockoff ink: shrsl.com/3botx (I know they say that it isn't good, but I have been using it since I got this printer! and have had no problems :) I hope that helps!

'Promo sm'
I have 20mm magnet paper to print on, do you think this or the 200 would handle it.
Hmm, I am not sure about that. I would need to know the weight of the paper.
Hello, thank you for making me look at th issue from a different perspective. İ think we should support affirmations with more practices.
Thank you. How many sheets of card stock can you load at one time?
Hey there! The rear tray of the Canon PIXMA PRO-100 can hold up to 50 sheets of paper, depending on the thickness of the paper. The printer can use plain paper, including recycled paper, and non-Canon genuine specialty paper up to 53 lb (200 g /m2). Heavier or lighter paper, except for Canon genuine paper, can cause jams. The manual feed tray can use paper from 4 to 23.6 mil (0.1 to 0.6 mm) (up to 93 lb (350 g /m2)), but paper thicker or heavier can cause jams.
Thank you so much for replying! That is so kind of you. In your research did you come across the Canon ts9521c craft printer? It has auto duplex, up to 12 x 12 paper (maybe even bigger) and excellent print resolution. I just can't find any hard facts about the weight of paper it will accommodate. Like you, I want to use heavy cardstock. At least 110 lb, but heavier if I can get it. Your video is gold. This is such an important topic that I can't believe there aren't more people talking about it! Thank you for sharing your research!
This is beyond helpful! I bought the 200 based on your great vid. Just received. I'm using Canva/ PDF and can't seem to figure out duplex double sided printing and am suddenly panicked that it doesn't print duplex 😱 Save my nerves (😂) and tell me it prints two sided??
Hey Susan! Sorry for the late reply. Unfortunately, I don't think it actually prints two sided. (At least not the 100.) I'm sorry about that! But you can always flip it over and print again ;) I know that doesn't help LOL
I got some money what do u lovee
huh. like what. like deez nuts?
👍 Great 🎉
Once you make a printable, and someone pays for, how do they get it. Do you have to send out orders each time or is it automatically done once they pay???
Good, but discontinued.
What about 130 pound cardstock
Hey girl! Unfortunately I don’t know about that! I’ll have to do some more research! Sorry about that.
So very true!
im glad you agree!!!
Thank you for a beautiful video❤Happy 2024!!
Aw thanks Ledys! So glad that it resonated with you!!! xoxo Happy New Year!
Curious to see your printables shop on Etsy. Could you share the shop name?

Hi Lindsay, just a quick follow-up. To clarify, your point was that these research tools are most helpful when I already have some decent design ideas in mind, right? They can then validate my choices and find the best keywords. But even if I'm stuck, competitor research can still be a lifesaver. I can analyze their top listings, draw inspiration, and create my own unique version with the help of these tools. Anything else we need to know? your advice would definitely help us a lot.
Made my day 🤣!!!
i mean, yeah, but this video then has the wrong title or äh keyword? I think uploading products that i'm passionate about, but never get viewed because i didn't do research, THAT is a recipe for burnout. if i can modify my products slightly to fit the market while still following my passion, i think this is much healthier. that said, if one can use free keyword research tools first, that might be recommendable if you don't have the budget. personally, i don't like to guess and i want to force success and not hope for the best.
That’s great! How’s it been working for you?
I was about to purchase an Epson ecotank photo printer but I'm so glad that I came across this video.... No disrespect to Epson, I'm sure that it prints great on photo paper but I need a printer that can print on heavy cardstock, something that my other printer wasn't able to do very well. I just purchased the Canon Pixma Pro-200 that you recommended...Do the inks that you recommend also work with the Canon 200, or are they only for the Canon 100?
thanks so much@@melissal7984 ! I am SO glad it helped you!!!
Great video, thank you!
Thank you! 😘😘
Thank you for this video. You are doing a great job guiding us with your experience. I appreciate it very much!
Ok now how do I do this with a cricut
Hey girl! I have a video about that here: ruclips.net/video/BX8B7gYtZD0/видео.htmlsi=xXIToKlkI7wLIRIZ
