Jessa you are one of the best mentor I have ever seen. You radiate positive energy.

[@ThatJessaB]

awe thank you so much

[@nasircli]

@@ThatJessaB you're welcome. I just enrolled in your template creator society. It's amazing. Looking forward to finish all the lesson and get them done through action. Lots of materials and resources. Thank you.

Super Inspiring! I have opened up a clipart store and I think i will try implementing similar tactics in creating what I love. Even though most of my research comes from a basic search on Insight factory and whenever something pops as a lightning bolt and I am like "I want to create a bundle" and the processes seams so easy and then this particular listing sells! It's the best feeling ever! I also love how you said about "crafter customers are hoarders" so true!

[@ThatJessaB]

There's something so rewarding about turning an idea into a successful product, especially when it resonates with your customers. And yes, crafters are definitely hoarders, in the best possible way! Keep following your passion and creating what you love-sounds like you’re on a fantastic path! 🌟

[@Ciaoyinstudio]

Do you think it’s possible to set up a Clipart store directly on Shopify or Payhip? I'm moving to a country where I can't open a store on Etsy. Thank you!

[@ThatJessaB]

You definitely can do that, you would just need to drive traffic directly to your storefront.

[@PixeledSolution]

I think my biggest preventatives of really taking any 'production' plunge with Etsy, is I do believe in the 'Niche down' mentallity, however I am such a-play by the rules and regulations person-that I am caught up on if I can use the same business bank account for my product based business for my digital businesses or if I should use multiple business accounts for my digital businesses...any tips here before buying these courses on your site? :)

[@ThatJessaB]

You can definitely use the same bank account for multiple storefronts, you just need to make sure the name on your etsy store profile and bank account match up. Don't overthink things and just get started with your storefront and learn as you go!

[@renaebuchanan1368]

I have started clip art do you upload your clip art as a pdf.

[@ThatJessaB]

When it comes to uploading your ClipArt, it's typically best to offer the files in formats that your buyers can easily use, like PNG, JPEG, or SVG. These formats are versatile and work well in most design programs. However, some sellers do offer their ClipArt in PDF format as well

[@sandramartinez8782]

I have to say, I’m a little intimidated to use Midjourney. Are customers ok with images being AI or do they ever complain? Seems like AI is a hot topic, but I really want to use it.

[@artinspiresstudio]

I have never had any complaints, and I also have in my listings that I use Ai to produce my images, but I also do post production and quality check to make sure I am happy with every image I list. ❤❤

[@sandramartinez8782]

@@artinspiresstudio thank you for the reply! Everything you said makes total sense! I’m going to give it a shot 🥰!

[@KD-ut3hh]

@@sandramartinez8782 I think one of the most important things to keep in mind with using AI is that you still want to use careful prompts and curate the clip art packs. It's not a quick process as it might seem, in reality it can take many hours. Sometimes people are not careful or try to do things in bulk and when you look closely at the graphics they have you will see weird things like people with 6 fingers or an extra eyelid or an arm or leg bending in an unnatural way. Using AI still needs a lot of human guidance to produce a good results and people that understand that are going to appreciate good quality clip art packs whether they are AI generated or not.

[@ThatJessaB]

You are super spot on and I totally agree😄

[@Justme14567]

Hi is this doable to do for a full time income, to quit your job? And is AI art to saturated on etsy now?

[@artinspiresstudio]

I am at a part time income now with my etsy stores, I am also now a part of Team Jessa. I don't think it is too saturated, you just need to find your place in the market and your passion. Meaghan x

[@Justme14567]

​@artinspiresstudio thanks for your reply. When did you start this business?

[@artinspiresstudio]

@@Justme14567 my main clipart store which brings most of my income is from 1st of August last year, so almost a year old. The other two stores from March 2023 (one was previous to that but was very slow, not many products and no real knowledge of what I was doing)

[@bethbaker6285]

It is. Mine took 18months to become full time. From 2014-2016. It's been my full time income ever since

[@artinspiresstudio]

@@bethbaker6285 that is wonderful!!

[@324whatnot]

People sell bundles of 4000 templates for very cheap, like 1-2usd. How to compete when you are just starting?

[@designyourcards]

I buy clip art and alot of times I buy single images instead of bundles because it is the exact image I was looking for and I don't need 4000 other images

[@ThatJessaB]

Honestly I dont even look at those I focus on quality over quantity and make sure my products are high-quality, unique designs.
