THANK YOU ❤❤

[@pages.and.designs]

is there a hidden fee associated with this free offer, or will we be required to pay at some point? thanks, ms Kate for answering my inquiry. I would really love to learn and join your boot camp. thank you so much for the great help.

[@AshP4113]

This is product selling gold! Thanks for the easy to understand process 😂😊 you blew it out of the park again Kate!

[@KateHayes]

Aww yay, thank you friend! So glad to hear you found it helpful 🤗😄

[@KateHayes]

What part of the process of selling digital products online is the most confusing to you? Comment below and let’s talk through it! 👇🏼👇🏼

[@EricaLucasLoves]

What is legal to use on Canva to create and to sell as a Canva Pro user…

[@KateHayes]

@@EricaLucasLovesThat can definitely be intimidating! Canva has two different licenses- one for free content and one for pro content. So it doesn’t depend on which plan you have but what types of content you use in your designs to sell. You can read both to see what each allows on their website! (*BTW disclaimer- I’m not a legal professional so this isn’t meant to be legal advice… just my understanding of it 😉)

[@loritastoimenova9999]

I have a couple questions: 1. You create your digital product (link) 2. Then you have to create a PDF (Letter) to incorporate the link and introduce the product to the client - Can you use a template for this step? 3. And when you go to sell it on Etsy, again you have to create another file, or just a mock-up? If you could please clarify :)

[@KateHayes]

@@loritastoimenova9999 for the PDF deliverable, I would create your own instead of using a template since it technically is being used for commercial purposes. Then when you get ready to list it on Etsy, all you’ll need to actually *create* for this step are the mock-ups/images for your listing. The rest is just filling out the info when you click to add a new listing on Etsy. Hopefully that helps clarify!

[@loritastoimenova9999]

@@KateHayes Thank you :)

[@EcomCarl]

Great insight on the potential of Canva templates as a revenue stream! 🌟 To boost sales, consider tailoring your designs to seasonal trends and current events, which can help your templates stay relevant and in-demand.

Another fantastic video from our friend Kate and I appreciate all your videos and the help you provide. Obviously based on Etsy there's a lot of people planning to get married.

[@streammax9331]

I’m glad I found your video. I have a question: Do I need to make any payment when creating an Etsy account or uploading items? Are there any fees involved? If possible, could you make a video about the buying process and how we receive money when others purchase our templates?

[@wonderwoman9170]

FYI. ETSY needs to have a credit card before you post your first product. - they have free but needs to have your credit card first , then needs to pay( if you want ) after free subscription

[@achillekalindaachofficial6903]

Rich content right there, Kate. I do want to start creating digital products as a business, starting with templates and Ebooks. I use Canva on a daily basis in my elementary tech teaching profession, which makes it a best fit for me.

[@KateHayes]

You’re so welcome, friend!

[@DOCSUNRAY]

Hi Kate, could you please go into further detail on what happens after a customer purchases the digital download. They buy, they edit and then is it our responsibility to include on a mockup card what type of file they need to download it in, what type of printer is best printing(inkjet or laser), to specify that an envelope is not provided?

[@KateHayes]

Great questions! The only thing they are purchasing from you is the template so it’s up to them what they do with it from there but it’s always helpful to be specific (in the listing description and images) what is included in the template, recommended options for printing their final file if needed, etc. The buyer will definitely appreciate more info than less!

[@raymakara]

Wow! Lots of great information and advice. Thanks Kate! One issue I see with this is that, I would think, the template itself should have a transparent background as well, so they can put it on any color of invitation paper they want. Otherwise, the background would always be white (or whatever color they may change it to). But, they would also have to have a Canva Pro account so they can save their copy of the template with a transparent background as well. Is that correct?

[@oliviabrown736]

Great information, please note that to be able to filter between FREE&PRO elements you must have Canva pro. That filter will not show up on a free account.

[@KateHayes]

If it’s not showing up for you, you can totally just look through taking note of which ones have the crown symbol and which ones don’t :)

[@khan.339]

No problem there is a yt? Channel @xgrow911 he has shown a trick of free canva pro

[@aliceer3777]

Hi Kate, appreciate tons for your efforts in making these videos💌 We learn a lot! May I know if 'Elements' and 'Fonts' are the only two things we need to make sure it's FREE version for buyers? For example, can we utilise 'Magic Media' (only accessible for Canva Pro) in our designs for selling? Because I'm looking to start this digital product business, but am torn whether to use a Pro account. What if there things in my design process where the buyers can't access?

[@sethasophanna7841]

Great video! The only thing I find difficult is to create these digital products with zero graphic design experience. It might be difficult to stand out as there are probably a lot of skilled sellers on etsy.

[@KateHayes]

I totally get that- it can be really intimidating. Definitely take a few minutes and watch my free masterclass (linked in description)- it addresses this!!

Commercialize instead of list for #3 lol hugs, Naomi

Kate what are the other sites which are free instead of etsy on which i could sell like this?

[@cresenceobrien7308]

Hi Kate, I have a question. What software did you use to blur out some of the background in the video that you dint want shown?

[@rhondagarrapy4569]

Great video! I have Canva Pro but I'm wondering if its worth it since you have to use the free version to sell products.

[@KateHayes]

You can definitely use pro elements for other types of products (like final instant download files), just better not to on templates. You also get several features and tools with Canva Pro that you don’t get on the free plan which is why I love it!

May I know how did you recorded your video with smooth talking without pausing? Did you read thru script or you did in point form? I tried talking on video without a script, I always stammer Hope you could guide me

It takes practice but no one is perfect! I film with a script and pauses - that’s where editing comes in. 😉 cheering you on!

Sure thing friend!! 👍🏻

[@kristayuhas724]

Feeling like you can’t use Canva pro graphics on templates can be really frustrating, since the pro graphics are often nicer.

[@KateHayes]

I definitely get that! You can include pro graphics on other types of digital products like printables, just better not to on templates unfortunately.

[@cynthiakrizo4395]

Thanks for the info... This is great content. I do have a question though, You said that you cannot use any "Pro" Canva clipart... Can you create a Pdf from Pro that cannot be edited? Like what if the only editable content is the verbiage and not the clipart or photo. Can I add my own photos and Photoshop pdf work for the background? TYIA

How ?

[@jcgarden123.]

I been looking for side gig since I love editing I fortunately landed here, I want to give this a try. I am just confuse about the etsy does buyer will be the one to print after they download or you as seller can partner with printing company as well? Hope you have a video for this. Thank you

[@KateHayes]

You can do either! For the types of templates this video is covering most of the time buyers will print it out themselves.

[@business_manager93]

how you can sell your whatever design template , where you can publish it and lis it as a product for selling.

[@pissawas]

Can we use elements/images from outside canva? Cusromer can see it?

[@nannitac.1247]

Thank you for the content! It’s so helpful. I have a question. If I cancel Canva pro after the first month, will the customer who purchase after that be able to get the link and download the template?

[@KateHayes]

You can generate the template link even on the free account so as long as you at least have a free account, they’ll be able to access the template.

[@nannitac.1247]

@@KateHayes How about the resolution? If I don’t use Canva pro to create work. Will the customer be able to download the high resolution?

Hello Kate, just wondering if you can help me! I am making a bingo with images using canva. I know canva has a bingo generator but with words and numbers, not sure how to make my bingo with the images that I created, to distribute them ramdomly, do I have to do it manually? thanks

[@TheBunnyHeals]

How do these digital creators compile bulk designs of 300+? are they bulk designing in canva (which i do not feel it works well with every style/type)? thanks.

[@leighgm]

Quick question: if I am using Canva pro and the buyer already has canva pro as well, do they still need to pay to remove the watermark or no?

[@KateHayes]

No if they have Canva pro, they will have access to any pro elements on a template. Most customers will not have a pro account though

[@MukeshThakur-kh8jl]

Thanks

[@KateHayes]

No problem!

[@rosalejosandrequinapondan3225]

Hey! i make my own elements, do i just put it on a template? what i mean is i create a template only using the elements that i created.

[@KateHayes]

Yes you can do this. :)

[@Muzicteachersop]

What about the envelope? Would you have to clearly state that the envelopes are not included?

[@lukiyanz]

how much can i put on the quantity section of the template? I mean, is a digital product, and i have no idea how much i can put.

[@Whisperedstory96]

I love this! But if the customer can go into canva and editing the invitation or the order they get why they don't go in canva and just make their own design use it for their wedding? What make them buy one?

[@kripasmaria5005]

Simple: some people don't have the time and are willing to spend a few bucks instead of wasting valuable time Orr it's just that people are too lazy to do it themselves and rather spend money

[@laly1268]

hello! so im having a problem with the template link. I’ve published my listing and used your steps. I told my mom if she could purchase my listing so i could see in the customers pov. She purchased and downloaded the pdf, but when she changed some stuff around, it also changed the whole entire template including the one i have listed. Is there something you think that i could have done wrong?

[@KateHayes]

Hey there, sorry you’re having trouble! Make sure your sharing the link that specifically says “template link” - that way your customers will get their own copy without the original being changed

[@reemabbadi7139]

What if i wanted to insert a background photo from google and used the elements from canva, can i stell sell them after ?

[@ΕφραίμΧουσέας]

Great video. I just find your channel and I love it. I have a question I don't have the canva pro just the free version and when I send the pdf there is no link on the file do I need to have the pro version for the link to unlock ?

Hey friend, no you should still be able to embed links. Be sure that you’re not clicking “flatten PDF” when you download

[@yukarin531]

[@karenbramley9981]

If there's no option for free or pro , then you have the free option . Just make sure that you don't use any elements that have a crown on it

[@JJ-cl5wv]

Is this like Corjl but free? I want to start selling editable templates on Etsy but I don’t want to pay the fee that cordial has. Thank you for mentioning that we should only be using three elements and texts.

[@KateHayes]

Corjl is another popular tool but my fav is Canva! You can do everything you need on the free Canva plan or choose to upgrade and pay for pro (extra features and content but not necessary). You can definitely use more than three graphics/elements on your template design but as far as fonts go, I’d keep it to three or under so it stays cohesive! :)

[@cm2953]

Can u use your own arts on canva like your own painting?

[@KateHayes]

Yes if you have a digital version you can upload!

[@Pegseleven]

Hi Kate I have a question! Bought a graphics pack for canva The png files half of them are uploading but half won’t and says it’s the wrong format or the file is corrupted. Both files look and open the same out of canva! Any help would be great as in new to this Thanks :)

[@KateHayes]

Sorry friend! Sounds like you may need to reach out to the seller you bought the graphics from!

[@Pegseleven]

Thanks for the reply! I do have one more question, Can you use Canva free and pro graphics on finished digital products to sell? Or do they have to be Canva templates if you use graphics off Canva? Was a bit confused reading there terms Thanks :)

Any niche we look at can be considered saturated! It’s about making myself stand out against the rest!
