10 Printable Items for Sale on Etsy to Make Money

Are you wondering which printable items you can sell to make money?

Selling printable on Etsy is one of the easiest and best ways to make money at home. Whether you are looking for side hustle or want to build full-time income over time, selling digital products like Printables can be a great way to go.

There is no stock, no shipping, and once you create something printable, it can be sold over and over again.

If you are not familiar with printables: Printables are digital files that you make on your computer and sell online. Customers buy and print them themselves, so you don’t have to store any inventory or do any actual prints – you’re just creating the design. People buy printable items because they save a lot of time and can afford it (I personally have been buying printable items and love how much time it saves). You can make such as:

• Greeting Card
• List
• Coloring page
• Wedding planner
• Wall art and decoration
• Children’s Activities
• Budget planners, more

In today’s blog post, I’m going to share 10 real-life examples of printables for sale on Etsy.

How to Make Your Prints Stand Out

After reading the printables above, you may be wondering how to sell these same type of printables.

Even if others have sold something similar, there is still a lot of room to stand out.

Here are some ways to make your print stand out:

• Niche Market: Instead of universal planners, they are making “planners at work” for moms, “a budget tracker for college students”, or a thank you card specifically for preschool teachers (rather than a universal thank you card).
• Use excellent design: Choose easy-to-read fonts and colors.
• Editable version for sale: Canva templates or fillable PDFs allow your customers to personalize their products.
• Add other: Print instructions or operating guides to make your list more valuable.
• Cleverly tied: Create a theme or occasion-based bundle (such as a brand new bridal shower printable pack or children’s trivia system).
