🎨 How to Sell Print on Demand Stickers on Etsy with AI
Are you looking for a way to make passive income from the comfort of your own home? With the help of AI, you can now create and sell print-on-demand stickers on Etsy that can earn you at least $1,000 in profit per week. In this article, we will walk you through the entire process in five simple steps, from designing your stickers to actually selling them on Etsy.
Step 1: Get Design Ideas
The first step in creating your stickers is to get design ideas. You can use chatbots like ChatGPT to brainstorm some vinyl sticker ideas. Type in "give me some vinyl sticker ideas to sell on Etsy" and it will give you a lot of amazing options to consider. You can also use Etsy research tools like Marmalade to find sticker ideas that have high search volume and low competition. For example, you can search for Corgi stickers, which have a relatively low competition on the market.
Step 2: Create High-Quality AI Stickers
The next step is to create your high-quality AI stickers. You can use Kittle AI, which was specifically made for print-on-demand products, to produce high-quality images with a transparent background for you. Kittle is very customizable, and you can choose the style of image or clip art that you want for stickers. You can use all of Kittle's built-in fonts and graphics in your designs under their subscription with no copyright issues. Once you're happy with your design, download it as a PNG file.
Step 3: Upload Your Stickers to Etsy
If you don't have an Etsy shop, simply scroll to the bottom on Etsy and click on "sell on Etsy" and select "get started." Each time you upload a product on Etsy, it charges you 20 cents. To save money, you can get your first 40 products listed entirely for free when you open your shop using our link down below. We're going to use Printify, which is the print-on-demand company that will create and ship the stickers for us every time we make a sale on Etsy. It is completely free to use, so go ahead and sign up using the link down below. You will now integrate your Etsy shop with Printify, so go to "manage my stores" at the top here, connect, select "connect to Etsy," and grant Printify access to your Etsy shop. That's it! Now Printify will get notified each time you make a sale on Etsy, and they take care of the rest.
Step 4: Create Mock-Up Images
To create more mock-up images of your sticker, go back to Kittle and add a white border to your sticker so that it looks like a sticker. You can grab free mock-ups from a website called Pixels, which is what we use to find images. You can also buy mock-ups on many platforms like Etsy or Creative Market. Upload your mock-up on Kittle and bring in your sticker file to place on top. Download these images that you've created to include in your Etsy product listing. It's a great way to showcase how your stickers can be used in different ways.
Step 5: Add a Title and Description
After hitting publish, add a title and description to your sticker. ChatGPT is great for getting ideas on what to include in your description. Make sure to fill out your title and description with relevant keywords.
