What It Is
You design editable templates in Canva, such as invitations, planners or business forms, and sell access through Etsy. Buyers get a template link that creates their own copy to customise. You get customers purely from Etsy search: pick products people already look for, and use the right words in titles, tags and descriptions.
The Pitch
Tatyana says she runs no ads, does no social media and doesn't send her YouTube viewers to her shop. Her customers come only from product research and a well-tuned search strategy on Etsy, and she says her template shop earns enough to cover her rent.
Who It’s Best For
Organised designers who like research and want a shop that runs without self-promotion.
The Truth (as we see it)
Selling template links needs a Canva Pro subscription. Search-only sales take time to build, and Etsy changes its search rules often. 'Covers my rent' is her own statement and isn't shown in figures here. She offers paid one-on-one calls, a membership and a paid Notion shop planner, and uses an affiliate link for Profit Tree.
