What It Is
You design personalised memorial or funeral cards and programs, adding the details and photo a customer sends you, and sell them on Etsy or Gumroad as digital files or printed products. Canva's print service can print and ship physical cards for you.
The Pitch
Diamond shows one Etsy seller making over $1,500 a month from a simple memorial card and another close to $1,000 a month. She says the funeral industry will always exist and that people pay well for sentimental items.
Who It’s Best For
Caring, detail-minded designers who can work patiently with grieving customers on tight deadlines.
The Truth (as we see it)
The seller figures come from Etsy estimates of other shops, not Diamond's own results. Orders are urgent and emotional, so mistakes in names or dates are costly. Diamond promotes her own free newsletter, the Real Money Report, in the video.
