Instead of building a generic social media template pack to sell on a crowded marketplace like Etsy, pick one specific type of local business (e.g. real estate agents), build a bundle of design templates, reusable captions, and story-format templates tailored specifically to that business type, and sell it by reaching out directly to buyers in that niche rather than relying on marketplace search traffic.
The presenter notes that generic social-media-pack listings on Etsy are increasingly saturated and often reliant on paid ads even to rank, so the differentiator is building something niche-specific enough that a buyer immediately recognizes it as made for them, then selling directly via outreach (email or DM) to that specific type of business instead of waiting for marketplace discovery — while acknowledging outreach will produce a lot of non-responses and isn't an easy guaranteed win.
Someone willing to pick and research one specific business niche deeply enough to build genuinely tailored (not generic) content, and comfortable doing direct outreach rather than relying on passive Etsy traffic.
The observation that Etsy's digital-template space has gotten more competitive and pay-to-play is consistent with general marketplace-saturation trends, and niching down to sell direct is a sound way to differentiate from generic bundles. The presenter is candid that this isn't an easy win and involves real design/demand-understanding skill and a real risk of low response rates on cold outreach.
