Yea I definitely learned about the small profit margins when I started because I also didn't hear alot of people mention it in their videos. The only reason why I stayed motivated to do it was because I was also coaching. So it balanced out.

Exactly! When I printed a "proof" for my journal for a local printer, I did go with premium paper, but it was $22 to print! I needed to see it printed, though, so it was worth it. Everyone else who was local wanted me to purchase a minimum order of $800. I didn't want to do that as I hadn't even finalized the front cover yet!

And someone else said (on another channel) that those can be pretty expensive, although I never actually checked. I like that you break down a non-spiral workbook vs a spiral workbook. I love almost everything I use as a spiral notebook. They might not be as "pretty", but they are so much more useful in terms of ease of writing, having the page open, etc. You provide such great ideas here!

@iamlashawnda Жыл бұрын
The moment you design or create something new you automatically retain copyright's to your product. If I am being honest even WITH copyright it is hard to keep someone from stealing your IP. Them moment they get your digital file, they can essentially do what they want with it. I have heard that its not even worth pursuing it legally due to everything involved. So I would recommend being very strategic in your price points and with any digital product you choose to sell. Also if you plan on using Amazon KDP, keep in mind that the moment you add your product to their platform, they have in their conditions that they can resell your IP to third parties EVEN if you archive the product. There is no way to fully remove your product and they will always have the ability to resell it.

Greetings Beautiful, Quick question about Canva. Even if you edit the premade template. Does this template now becomes yours to where you are able to use it for your planner, journal, and etc.? I also have a question about KDP. Are you saying if you allow them to put a barcode on your product they now own the right to it? Also it it best to put your product on KDP because they already have the audience? Will this make your marketing easier?
@iamlashawnda Жыл бұрын
Great Questions. I will answer in order: 1: Technically yes and no. The base of the template is still theirs and its a gray area when it comes to selling products using their templates. I wouldn't trust it honestly. Better safe than sorry. 2: If you use their ISBN they have the rights to resell your planner/journal in anyway they choose. So yes.. Technically you are giving the the selling rights to your planner. Ex: Someone noticed that multiple Amazon vendors were selling a planner that they originally made and added to Amazon. And they were charging a cheaper rate. It was nothing the author could do because she put it on amazon to sell originally and somehow those vendors were able to access the digital file and resell it. I would look more into detail about their rights but I personally don't use Amazon KDP anymore. 3: Yes it will make marketing easier but also keep in mind that you will still have to do alot of marketing on your platforms as well to get sells coming in. I would not soley rely on amazon to push your products. I hope this helps! 😊

I thumbs-upped and subscribed but ... While these products look well designed, unfortunately, this video seems more like a marketing vehicle than an actual "How to Create" tutorial. But, I'm not picking on Lashawnda -- many of the top "How to Create [Journals,Planners] on Canva" videos should actually be titled "How to Assemble and Publish [Journals, Planners]", but I suppose they use "Create" because of keyword research. I like her conversational, informative style, but I'm just disappointed that this only describes the process of "preparing" your journal, not creating it. I would have expected coverage of at least how to design and layout 2-3 interior pages. To improve this video, a callout/video bubble to a tutorial on creating the planner interior pages could be placed at 26:00

I definitely appreciate your feedback. There are a TON of planner videos that are full of fluff out there for sure. I will say that I feel as well as others that this video is value packed for those who are just beginning and I have learned as an educator that you have to be careful with bombarding people with too much information. It will actually have the opposite result of what you wish to get an an educator. I do plan to create future videos showing the actual process but there are definitely videos on KZbin showing you the actual process because thats how I learned. You just have to search for exactly what you need help with.

You would have to provide your own inventory outside of KDP because they do not currently offer spiral bound printing. I have not tried to sell my spiral bound planners on Amazon yet so I am not sure about the actual process to do that.
