Step # 1 - The Concept
You probly have already guessed, we are going to use the Ecomartists platform and our drawing services to create and sell products with Photo drawing.
1.1 - Examples of Products
Step # 2 - But Im Not a Designer!
Do not worry, You do not need to be a designer. This method lets Ecomartists handle most of the heavy lifting. All orders will be drawn by the Ecomartists team. Your job is only to setup product listings using our Placeholders. We will cover in more detail below exactly how.
Step # 3 - How it Works
The Strategy in simple terms is this.... Use the Ecomartists drawing placeholder (before/after example) + creative/funny text or saying. And put it on ANY product you can think of. If you understand this simple concept, you do NOT need to be a designer. You are Simply taking existing Sayings you find and pairing them with a placeholder from the Ecomartists library.
3.1 - Ecomartists Placeholder + Simple Text = License to Print $
SVG Text + Drawings + Any Product

Mug Example:
Shirt Example:
Phone Case Example:
Step # 4 - Where to get the Text Ideas/Designs?
The EASIEST way is search Etsy for "SVG designs", other people have already taken the time to design and create sayings with pretty fonts, that you can use and pair with our drawing placeholders to make a unique product. But this will typically cost $2-3 Per SVG.
The free way, is to search Etsy for a text saying you like and want to use, and then recreate the text with your own font choices using Canva or Photoshop.
We cover this in much more details in the "How to Find Winning Ideas" Section of this course,
Step # 5 - Where to get the Mockups?
1. Use the free mockups from Ecomartists Resource Library
2. Use Mockups from the Print provider you plan to use.
3. Buy mockups from Etsy or creativemarket.com
4. Use websites like Placeit.com
5. Learn how to create mockups for FREE using AI (see the section of this course)
We will go into more details later in the course.
Step # 6 - Your Goal = 100 Listings
I hope you see the power of this simple strategy. SIMPLE TEXT SAYING + Drawing Placeholder = License to print money on Etsy.
Your Goal now should be to create as many product listings as possible in all different niches with all different product types. You will NOT KNOW what product is going to take off, this is why we recommend creating at least 100 listings. With 100 listings you will start making sales every day, and you will have a higher chance to find a super winner that brings 80% of all your sales. You just need to get to work and keep listing products until you reach to point of making consistent sales.
Thats all there is to it! Now Get to Work!
