How to Get Started Selling Digital Products on Etsy (Start Here)

[@YogaBlissDance]

I"ve started because of you- i'd love to be interviewed once I hit some milestones! It would motivate me- you are clear, no fluff and calm in presentation. I really like that.

[@brandontimothy]

Yes! That'd be amazing. Keep me updated :) All the best to your Etsy seller journey.

I need to pause at 6mins coz I need to say this : you're so entertaining to watch, that I want to understand every words you said. I'm really learning from you and grateful for that. I hope that when I open my Etsy shop I got to apply everything that I learned from you. Thank you again, Brandon. 😇

[@Mary_Dean]

Your videos have helped me tremendously with getting started on Etsy. As soon as that link drops in my inbox, I’m signing up for the private group program! 🎉

[@jasonphoa]

Great content from Brandon every time. Down to earth advice and tips. Over the past 3 months I was exploring which side hustle to start so that I could live on my own terms. However, I recently got distracted by a lot of sihiny objects and other KZbinrs and lost focus. This video pulled me back again. I've decided that selling digital products on Etsy will be my goal. For the next 6 months, I'll be following Brandon's teaching and instructions closely every step of the way. Thanks Brandon!

[@catalinamolnar6020]

Please keep us updated about your progress. Good luck to you! I didn't find yet a succesful niche to start

[@Georgia-kn5qr]

Thank you, I plan on going to tafe for a cert in business but your videos are giving me the confidence to plan ahead and start preparing for my shop. The Q&A was really helpful

[@iluck5905]

Hey Brandon What kind of digital products would be the the best to sell? What kind of digital products are you selling? Thanks

[@zoekarlinsey6328]

I love your videos. I have been doing Etsy for a few years and have definitely earned money but I’m hoping to be as successful as you. Your videos have really inspired me and I’ve learned so much!! I just opened a new shop after watching your videos and using your SEO guide. But I’m feeling stuck and I’m not seeing the sales I’d like to see. Do you offer one on one coaching or anything like that? I’d really love to pick your brain!

[@shannonjohnson6381]

Question: Brandon can do a more in-depth video on the ratio and files for digital art? I watched your current vid on this topic but still have questions when I’m working in ProCreate, setting up for the sizes (do you design in the largest of that ratio and then resize for each smaller size you plan to sell? What about sizing for really large wall canvas or tv ratio sizes? Setting up for 300 DPI, for saving files and file management. And if you sell digital art on other platforms like Creative Market…😊👍🏼

[@Leahmariaaaa]

I second this!

[@paulahawthorne7807]

Brandon there are a lot of questions (including mine ) on a tutorial you made a while back about sizing your wall art.I would appreciate it if you would take a look at those questions .some may be out of date and need updating..thank you you tutorials are great..

[@reneesolana6697]

hi brandon! any chance you might be up for a video on practical, organized task management for our shop, or your own process? keeping track of so many listings, tasks, changes, and moving parts can feel very chaotic without a system that is sane and organized. thumbs up this comment if you agree!

[@jasonphoa]

Totally agree! For people totally new to selling digital products on Etsy like us, a step by step guide would be great!

[@brandontimothy]

That's a good idea, I can definitely expand on that. One of my favourite task management tools is Notion.

[@informedsrthankful2438]

This video brought to the point help and clarity. Just what I needed to help me really take the step to get started with an Etsy shop. Thank you so much,.

[@karlamurphy9934]

Love your content Brandon 🥰Used your shop critique and it helped a ton! Just signed up for your updates and hope to get in that group! Thank you!

[@brandontimothy]

I appreciate that! So happy to hear the shop critique helped. 🙌

[@karaghxyz]

Hi Brandon, I researched a lot of digital clipArt Esty store, most ( if not all ) of them has a commercial license protecting their artwork. For example, if you wish to sell more than 500 commercial product using their digital clipart via T-shir, mug, wedding invitation etc, you need to purchase the commercial license ( lowest $10 US, higher ones $200 US ), and the digital download for such a commercial license is usually a PDF or a JPG. So what exactly is in the PDF for such a license ? they describe the terms in the description pretty clear, but what is in the PDF ? and what steps do you have take after they purchased your commercial license ? Thanks !

[@catalinamolnar6020]

Hi Brandon! I started my etsy shop on March first,until now i have 20 listings all in the same niche but different types; first ten were different , i've waited to see which one have most views, and uploaded ten more of the same, but until now no sales. I've also runned some ads , which was a big mistake 'cause now i have to pay for them [+ fees] since i don't have any sales. How much time should i wait to see if there 's any future for this niche? should i try another niche and delete this listings? i think i'm stuck and don't know what to do. i would be very grateful for some advice from you. thank you

[@bossmammaco]

Have you launched the group coaching yet?

[@brandontimothy]

Yes I have! The private group is going well so far. Follow my newsletter for when I release it to the public :)

[@yohkosumida9412]

Thanks for this great video!! Can you do a video on how you keep track of finances/accounting for POD Etsy shops?

[@Marquetica]

For example, I don’t know what’s the best for me so I thought I’d do more different products because I really have no idea what’s going to work. Is it bad that I want to switch?

[@shannonjohnson6381]

Thanks Brandon!!! Always such great content! I’d love to be in your new group, relaunching my shop! Yay!

[@brandontimothy]

🙌🙌

[@LOVELYEUGENI]

Hello Brandon, it's really nice to see your Etsy Tutorial, and this year i open my Etsy Shop selling digital Product and get 1 order. But unfortunately my shop suspended by Etsy, they said that i violating their Terms of use, but i strongly believe i didn't violating any of their Terms of Use. I sell my own drawing. So do you ever have Etsy's suspended problem ? And did you know how to fix this problem ? If you ever make video about this please let me know. Thankyou

[@katieotoole8784]

Hey Brandon, love your videos. I would love to be one of the 20 or 30 people you pick for your group/coaching I have been trying so hard to get this started, like since last year. I just need good direction to put it together. I just purchased your Etsy SEO Playbook in hopes that it will help. Keep up the awesome videos, and thanks for everything you do for all of us.

[@melaniemowrey8309]

Hey! I watch your videos alllll the time as I’m creating & starting to open my shop. I am sooooooo close because of you, but I’m a little stuck. I cannot find an answer to this question anywhere- What do you deliver to your customers in addition to their digital downloads they’re expecting? If that makes sense. Thank you!!

[@jamal138]

Is there a way or a tool to sort out single items from bundle listings? They’re usually not displayed in the product description

[@tj_puma]

Great vid! Can you create a vid discussing taxes and utilizing a LLC to save yourself?

[@DesignerJake]

Hey Brandon, Love your content ive just hit 200 sales on my Etsy store. Really wanting to know how to scale up and improve. You used to have a coaching call on your website is this still available? would love to have a chat with you. Thank Jake

[@mohidimran9595]

Your new subscriber here brandon, i love the way you explain each and every point. i need one video on digital product complete listing and how to deliver order. all pleaseeeee

[@brandontimothy]

Thanks for the sub! I'll work on more videos like that soon. I appreciate it!

[@cturner7157]

Hi, Brandon -- Your videos are very helpful, thank you. My question is this, and I'm sure it's been answered, but I'm not sure where! Can you sell digital products, such as wall art, in one Etsy store, and sell the same piece in another of your shops for print on demand (with different pricing, of course). It would be great to offer customers the physical product option, even if it has to be in another store.

[@cineology01]

can you do a video about "A Payment account reserve has been placed on your shop". I've opened a new shop and after just 2 sales I received this message. Can you do a video about this subject

[@Alfred_the_doodler]

I would like to hear about this too

[@skyedzns4760]

Hey!Can we list free in etsy(like there are some videos showing 40 free listings like that stuffs.can we actually make sales doing that). waiting for you response ♥️

[@jarradleach5476]

How do you make good digital mock ups for etsy

[@brandontimothy]

Creativemarket has a lot of mock-up options. That’s where I get all my Etsy mock-ups :)

[@ats5010]

Hi Brandon, I'm just curious. Most of us sell the same things on ETSY. How can we differentiate ourselves from other sellers? Thank you and have great sales this coming month.

[@atrangiK-popTadka]

Hey I have a Payoneer account because PayPal isn't in our country. I was wondering if I will be able to connect my Payoneer account to my Etsy shop that I wanna start. Will everything start nicely?

[@L0KIraj]

Sir, give us the link of your shop to get an inspiration and rectify our mistakes please

[@brandontimothy]

Hello! I appreciate your interest, but I'm unable to share my shop's name. Directing extra traffic can impact my conversion rate negatively. I hope you understand. Rest assured, I apply the principles discussed in my videos. Feel free to check out my other content for more insights.

[@thefreemanexperience]

Thank you, Brandon! Let's go, Bra - oh, nevermind.

[@dimthomosgr]

Hi Brandon! Would it be a good idea to advertise my Etsy shop and products on Facebook?

[@Siminarakazi]

do you have any course related make money through digital products for beginners.?

[@brandontimothy]

Yes! I've launched my Etsy digital products course! You can join here: www.brandontimothy.com/academy :)

[@robert_crooks]

Hi, i recently started a store and wanted to ask if having higher quality mockups(large file) affect the loading time of them for the customer, and if so do i just lower them?

[@brandontimothy]

I usually use 2400x2400px for my images, that's high enough reso while still being low in file size.

[@robert_crooks]

@@brandontimothy thanks :)

[@ericlange486]

Nice Video Brandon :)

[@gopalakrishna.vanthala]

hi bro , after digital product is saled , etsy is debited from the profit for the off side ads or we have to pay it

[@danab333]

Thank u

[@tinydigitalplanet]

Hey Brandon, I started my Etsy shop yesterday then today my shop was temporarily suspended. I don't know what to do. I’m trying to contact ETSY about this issue, but I’m having no luck. Do you have any suggestions?

[@brandontimothy]

Try requesting a call from Etsy Support so you can speak directly to a representative who can address your concerns. Here's the link: help.etsy.com/hc/en-us/requests/new?segment=selling#issue_sell_manage_listings-callback

[@abdullama4821]

How can i have a quick chat with you? Regarding ur program

[@ankiese]

[@brandontimothy]

Hi! I'm sorry, but I no longer offer 1-on-1 coaching calls. However, you can join my Free Masterclass Webinar here: bit.ly/bt-free-webinar. :)

[@TheNurseSpot]

How do you feel about selling digital products in a store that is mainly physical products? Given that it's the same niche.

[@KaramjitSingh-j9i]

I would be interested to be part of group, Brandon.

Would you be available for a quick call

[@amberdenison]

Thank you for being so genuine! I have seen so many people just trying to sell their "program" without building trust. So encouraging! Juxtaposition Design would love a peek if you need a shop to review ;)

[@brandontimothy]

Thank you! 😀

[@orlytabachnik6457]
