What It Is

You build ready-made templates that buyers edit with their own details: social media posts, emails, CVs or invitations. The creator sells premium birthday invitation templates aimed at busy hosts, where the buyer changes the child's name, venue and time. Each template is made once and sold as a download through Selar or a similar store.

The Pitch

The creator says templates save customers the time of starting from scratch, which is why they sell. She warns that pretty is not enough: a template has to be quick and easy to customize for the target buyer to be worth paying for.

Who It’s Best For

People with a good design eye who like making practical, reusable files for busy customers.

The Truth (as we see it)

Templates are a proven digital product type but a crowded one, and prices are often low, so volume and visibility matter. The creator's advice to design for speed of editing is sound. Check the license of any fonts, graphics or Canva elements before reselling them in a template. No income figures are given. The creator is promoting a waitlist for her own paid annual membership, the Digital Gold Mine Club, which teaches these formats.
