[@Kingdomdigitalcreators]

Can you make a video on the uploading process and the after purchase process like the pdf that you give to your clients after purchase

[@rain0344]

great and very useful idea!

[@DinaLu]

That's a good idea! I thought it was straightforward but maybe not...

[@Kingdomdigitalcreators]

@@DinaLu I think I’m overthinking it 😅

[@shaunmoorefinance]

Interesting video Dina. Good watch!

[@DinaLu]

Thanks Shaun!

[@hudhud7172]

Great tips Dina, thanks for sharing. Would you consider doing a tutorial on how to design digital products in canva?

[@DinaLu]

I think this video covers a lot already haha 😝 I'd be revealing too much if I do an actual tutorial

[@JeffMuhlbach]

I've got a few ideas on digital templates that would be excel and/or google sheets. I need top spend some time getting them together then I'd like to get some ideas and better understanding or the etsy end of things.

[@DinaLu]

Great that you have ideas!!! Good luck on everything :)

[@kathbumbelina2621]

Thank you for that information. I find Pinterest great for ideas for types of planners and templates. There is probably the same for any niche in there. Also I use Google slides mostly to create my planners and templates. I love Canva and I create some editable stuff on there because it has to bring the customer back to Canva. And people love editable digital templates too.

[@DinaLu]

Ooooo! Pinterest is a great way to get ideas! I'm going to start looking at pinterest too haha

[@annaspeaks373]

I love canva app a lot, I use canva for my thumbnails

[@DinaLu]

It's awesome!

[@RaliVanMinks]

Thank you for sharing this, Dina! So many great tips in here to get yourself unstuck when you've hit a block. Or just need to get started! :) I know you've been using Canva for everything but I'm curious if you've also considered Adobe Express for templates and digital assets? Side note: I've binge-watched most of your videos by now and I love your vibe and how transparent and honest you are. Have an amazing week ahead and can't wait for your next shop update!

[@DinaLu]

Aww thank you SO MUCH Rali!!!! Your comment makes me so happy. To answer your question, I haven't considered Adobe Express... never even heard of it before hahaha. But I know there are other platforms other than Canva that people use for templates. I am just most familiar with Canva so that's why I'm selling Canva templates

[@RaliVanMinks]

@@DinaLu Yup, that's also what I thought but I was just wondering if it was even remotely on your radar. You're awesome! Thanks a lot, Dina! :)

Question here! When uploading graphics/fonts to Canva via Creative Market or Creative Fabrica, can I delete those downloaded files from my laptop? 😅 I’m running out of storage… please help!

[@woahitsdiamond]

Yes you can delete the file but just remember where you got them from if you ever need them in the future 😊

[@Quoya.]

@@woahitsdiamond awesome!! Thank you so much!

[@doremido_life]

Love your content! ❤❤❤

[@DinaLu]

Thank you so much!! ❤️

[@ulrikehennersdorf7353]

I have a question about fonts. Don‘t I have to buy commercial licenses for fonts, if I wanna sell them on Etsy? I’m referring to the fonts that are in the template, which you then make money from by selling it, same goes for icons or pictures? I’m genuinely interested in this bc what if I sell a product without having the commercial license and then I get caught or idk? Btw I really enjoy your videos ❤

[@rain0344]

I have the same doubt 😮‍💨 I don’t want to get in trouble.

[@DinaLu]

I only use the fonts that are in Canva free version, so I'm sorry I can't comment on this!

[@blancasanchez5823]

Hi, im trying to understand how selling on etsy works. So when someone buys a digital download, you provide a link to the file, then they can dowload it, save it and use canva to edit and make their own changes?

[@DinaLu]

Yup so they can download a PDF that I made. The PDF has the link to the Canva template. Then they make a copy of your template using that link and then they can make changes on their own Canva account

[@khalovestyle]

I’ve a question to asked. Do you sell ur digital download in US only or other countries as well?

[@DinaLu]

Anyone around the world can buy my digital downloads :)

[@khalovestyle]

@@DinaLu OMG, thank you for replying. If the product sell around the world. How do we keep track of other country to pay tax ?

[@DinaLu]

@@khalovestyle etsy does it automatically I believe.... Except maybe in your home country you need to do some things

[@khalovestyle]

@@DinaLu thank you so much!!! ♥️♥️♥️♥️

[@asimbehar]

???? Is it a good idea to do a design on a t shirt ( using printify and Canva ) and then sell it on Etsy???? I have been thinking about starting a business like that .thanks for this awesome video Dina 💕

[@rain0344]

it’s a good idea, many people do it. You have to look into copyright, costs of making and listing the product, the actual price of the product to make sure you make a profit.

[@asimbehar]

@@rain0344 thanks for sharing your thoughts, yeah I will for sure look into those things before selling

[@DinaLu]

Anything can be turned into a business, but that doesn't necessarily mean YOU should. I'd say it depends. Do you have a good niche for the t-shirts? Can you create a great design? Many questions to ask....

[@asimbehar]

@@DinaLu I do have a really good niche for t shirts that I can make great designs in , it would require some market research though, I watched your video on how you did it .

[@MightieYT]

You have an eye for things and I have an eye for you because you so beautiful. 😂 Anyway great video.

[@DinaLu]

LOL thank you!

[@originalrahmble]

Oh wow I never got here so quick! 7 seconds LMAO. Pure fluke. Do you get alot of messages and emails from customers asking for help to edit their templates? Or do you include a video tutorial with your listings?

[@DinaLu]

Hahaha 7 seconds is indeed fast!!! And I am indeed slow with replying (sorry!) I don't really get any messages from customers asking for help. For some listings, I have a video tutorial.
