HOW TO USE GUMROAD PRINT ON DEMAND TO SELL ORIGINAL ARTWORK FOR PASSIVE INCOME

If you're an artist or graphic designer who wants to make passive income off of your passion, this thread is for you.

Let's go.

//THREAD//

Here's how you start:

>>Get an account with @printful
>>Upload your designs onto coffee mugs, tee-shirts, canvas, etc.
>> Set your price (with good profit margins)
>> Integrate your new store with @gumroad

You can learn how to do that here:
https://www.printful.com/blog/integrating-gumroad-with-printful-to-offer-physical-products/

Next:

>>Create your product pages on Gumroad
>> Write an awesome product description

Now:

>> Use @zapier to connect @gumroad to @MailerLite
>> trigger it to create a sub each time you make a sale.

@gumroad will save this information anyway, but it's always good to backup

Once you're all set up:

>>Go to FB.
>>Create a business fan page
>>Make a post showcasing your product.

Let's say you dig philosophy.

All your designs are of dudes like Kant, Descartes, Hume, etc. with a famous quote.

Here's what you do:

>>Go to FB ad manager

Create an audience of people who are:

>> University educated
>> Who like philosophy
>> Narrow targeting right down to their favorite book

Next:

>>Create an engagement campaign
>> Set budget of $5 per day
>> Run for 7 days
>> Put link in FB AD

When 7 days are up:

>> Switch to conversion campaign
>> Send people directly to your product page.
>> Use the same budget and test ads.
>> Make sales.

Things to consider:

>> Make sure you add FB pixel to your @gumroad seller page so that you can retarget with ads.

>> Take advantage of Pinterest.

@TheEmilyDyson has a course that I hear rocks. If your audience is there, use it to drive free traffic or run ads.

Not an artist?

>> Go to @fiverr and hire someone to make some designs.

>>Follow the steps above.
