I have two questions that may seem like they have obvious answers but that I'd still like to ask; 1) why not use your personal gmail account to link the folder with the download files? and 2) if I have three jpg files that are too large to upload to Etsy that I want to link in a PDF for download would you still recommend zipping them and why/why not?

question: if i were making a daily appointment page do I need only one page of daily/weekly ? how will they end up with 30 days of the month of appointments? or 4 weeks of weekly? will they be just copying the daily page or deleting it daily to have a fresh page the next day??
@HeatherMichelleCo 5 күн бұрын
Hey! This would depend on the type of planner you want to create. If it is dated vs undated. Dated will typically have links in them to link. In this case you would want to add all of the pages so that you can add the hyperlinks. If you are creating a simpler planner, undated planner or one that you want your customer to be able to fully customize, then you can just have the page as a template that your customer can then just copy and paste where ever they want to add it. My planner for example has both types of pages. It has linked everyday pages and then a template section with one off pages that they can add in as needed, like maybe a fitness tracker or different notes pages.

Hi there. I am so glad that you found the video helpful. Unfortunately I am not sure what you mean by button. Anything created on the planner is just an object with a hyperlink attached to allow it to act like a button. Is that what you mean?

If the link is not working in goodnotes it could be that it was attached to something that is grouped. It will work in indesign and in the pdf itself but then not in goodnotes. Unless they have fixed this recently. So if you create an object like a box and then add text and then group those together, then adding a hyperlink to that group will not work. This is why I always recommend creating a placement holder box over the area you want to have a link and then adding the hyperlink to that. Just make sure that you do not group it. I hope that helps

Hi! Thank you so much for the video, it was very helpful. The only thing is now I get lots of emails a day with my customers asking to access the files usually because they want to access the files with a different email. I’m getting a little worried because this is happening a lot and It seems like an inconvenience on both sides. Have you dealt with this before? If so how did you handle it?
@HeatherMichelleCo 10 күн бұрын
Hi there. I am so glad that the video helped you out. If you are getting people requesting access, then they are not doing something right. You DO NOT want to give anyone access to your file. They will be able to change it. They should download the file/folder onto their own computer and then they can save, use and make changes depending on what you are selling. You may just want to make it a point to explain that on your download pdf and probably in your item descriptions.

Hey there. Would you be referring to Etsy? If so, you can ask people to sign up according to Etsy’s seller handbook. What you cannot do is add people’s emails from Etsy to your list yourself. You absolutely must ask for permission to sign up and allow them to enter their email themselves. That is actually not just an Etsy policy but a law.

Wow! Your cartoon drawing is Excellent! You have very good artistic kills! 👍 But Most people don't have Apple devices. They can not afford them. You forgot to mention Canva is for simple vectors as well, it is for people who can not use complicated graphics programs. Also there is an online pixel-base Tool for free that is exactly Identical to Photoshop, which is called (Photopea). Personally I use Corel Draw & Photoshop as a graphic designer, and not illustrator. Corel It is way Easier and faster to learn than illustrator. People should understand that there is not only Adobe illustrator in the Graphic design world. There is also Corel Draw, which is professional as well and is the great opponent of illustrator. There is also affinity softwares, etc... Generally there are a plethora of graphics software guys, simple and complicated. And don't stick only with Adobe's extremely expensive programs. By the way, you are a good instructor on doing Video tutorials about Procreate illustrator and indesign. I would like to watch more tutorial on graphics software programs. 👍 Last but not least, after watching this video for an hour and half, I didn't understand what stickers actually do in "Goodnotes" and I also didn't understand the use of Goodnotes. You showed the process of creating amazing designs and templates. But you didn't show us how the stickers are used in goodnotes and what goodnotes is used for?

I started watching your videos and they are really educational and a lot of helpful insights. I am a graphic designer, but I've never tried my luck selling online. I don't know from where to start. I start with Adobe Stock, to see how it will go and after with Etsy or other POD websites. But I am interested mostly on Etsy. My Question is, Is it possible for someone to make a steady income of at least $1000 per month on Etsy alone? (I will be happy if that is achievable). Thank you for sharing these tutorials. You have a new subscriber to your channel. 👍 Do you have a video of suggesting the Best POD platforms that work best for you?
@HeatherMichelleCo 2 ай бұрын
Hi there! I am so glad that you are finding my videos helpful. You can definitely make $1000+ on Etsy a month. I make much more than that, how much more depends on the time of year. There are many factors that come into play though so it is not a guarantee. It really just depends on design quality, SEO, demand, and time (or possibly money) that you put in. I will say that if it is something you want to do as your main source of income, I would sell in more than one place to diversify and not have all of your eggs in one basket. But I think starting with just Etsy for now will be fine. I do think it is the best place to start with the most potential. Good luck!!🍀

Dear Heather, another fantastic and complex tutorial, Big Thanks ❤ One question: can one create a page within the planner on which stickers can be placed and used directly from the planner (for ex. one could put a sticker on some page to make the planner more beautiful and custom?)? Is that possible or stickers can be used only from separate file (throught importing the sticker into the planner)? Thank You for your time 😘
@HeatherMichelleCo 2 ай бұрын
Hello! I am so glad you are liking the tutorials. You would in fact have to do them separate. When you create the digital planner, you export it as a pdf, which will flatten it. You would not be able to move anything around on it. The stickers are pngs that used like a picture to place on top of the pdf in the pdf reading program that the customer decides to use. You can absolutely offer them both the stickers and the planner as part of one listing, but it would just need to be two separate files. They would just then need to add the pngs to their program and in there they can add them where ever they wish to add them in the planner

I wish I did. I have yet to find a quicker way to do it than manual. One thing that I can say is that if you create the first planner and then create your new planners from that one, you can create a short cut for editing the links which will be quicker than adding them all again. But it is still a time consuming process.

@HeatherMichelleCo 4 ай бұрын
Hey there. I am glad you are getting use out of the video. Unfortunately I do not know of a quicker way to make the hyperlinks. This is what makes creating digital planners challenging. You can however create your own shortcuts in indesign so that you do not have to manually go to add shortcuts in the menu every time. This is especially helpful if you want to edit your hyperlinks. Say if you create a new planner from the existing one and need to make changes. I had made a spreadsheet of page numbers and then went off of that. Writing it down works too. I will do some more research and if I find an easier way then I will let you know and/or will make a video about it. I have not found anything as of now 😔

You may need to pay a small amount per month for extra storage depending on how much you are storing, but you would need that either way.
