But, how do you get started?<\/p>\n<p>The fact is, despite the seeming simplicity, there's a variety of sticker types you can sell, ranging from organizational stickers to stickers that are just straight up art pieces.<\/p>\n<p>This means that there's tons of opportunity for you to insert yourself as a seller in this market&#8211; you just have to come up with your designs, figure out how to make the stickers, and choose where to sell them.<\/p>\n<p>So, if you want to learn how to sell Stickers on Etsy to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmonkey.com\/different-sources-of-income\/\">create a new income source<\/a>, this is the guide for you!<\/p>\n<p>I'm going to break down how to start an Etsy sticker shop, all of your sticker creation options, and some tips to help grow your Etsy revenue.<\/p>\n<p>Let's get to it.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>How To Sell Stickers On Etsy<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>I've been using Etsy for years, and it's one of the best places to sell anything creative or artistic online.<\/p>\n<p>Tom has also sold on Etsy in the past. In fact, he ran an Etsy print on demand shop during school and sold meme coffee mugs, stickers, and other goods.<\/p>\n<p>And even though it's competitive, it's certainly possible to make money selling stickers on Etsy if you know how to create eye-catching designs and market your store.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>1. Create Unique Sticker Designs<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The first step in selling stickers on Etsy is to actually create designs you want to sell.<\/p>\n<p>The fact that stickers are a hot commodity on Etsy mean that there\u2019s also a lot of competition out there for designs.<\/p>\n<p>So, if you want to start an Etsy sticker shop that actually has a chance to stand out from the crowd, <strong>you need some unique designs<\/strong> that cater to a niche audience.<\/p>\n<p>For starters, <strong>pick\u00a0a specific niche to create your designs around<\/strong> and do some research to see what the competition offers.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-10133 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.webmonkey.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Etsy-frog-sticker.jpg\" alt=\"Etsy-frog-sticker\" width=\"600\" height=\"325\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Some popular Etsy sticker niche ideas include<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Animals like cats or dogs<\/li>\n<li>Floral patterns<\/li>\n<li>Funny sayings<\/li>\n<li>Inspirational quotes<\/li>\n<li>Memes<\/li>\n<li>Spirituality<\/li>\n<li>Productivity<\/li>\n<li>Seasonal stickers, like spooky Halloween ones or Christmas stickers<\/li>\n<li>Super heroes<\/li>\n<li>Labeling and organizational stickers<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>There\u2019s also the option to stick to a certain design style and offer different themed packs&#8211; like an ocean theme and space theme for example&#8211; and then sell multiple stickers as one listing.<\/p>\n<p>You get the idea: come up with some niche ideas and see what top sellers in your niche are doing.<\/p>\n<p>Once you decide on your sticker niche, you can use\u00a0any design program you\u2019re comfortable with to create your first designs.<\/p>\n<p>Alternatively, use an app with free sticker templates like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmonkey.com\/make-money-with-canva\/\">Canva<\/a>. If you\u2019re on the more artistic side, you can also draw on a tablet or paper (and then scan the finished product).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Extra Reading &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmonkey.com\/make-money-with-memes\/\">How To Make Money With Memes<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>2. Create Your Etsy Sticker Store<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The next step for making and selling stickers on Etsy is to actually launch your shop.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Thankfully, getting started on Etsy is easy. Here\u2019s what you will to do to start selling<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Click the \u2018Sell on Etsy\u2019 button and sign up with your email.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Enter your preferences (Language, currency, etc.)<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Name your shop.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">List at least 1 product &#8211; If you don\u2019t have your stickers made yet you can always come back and create your store after OR create a fake listing for the time being. To list, you\u2019ll need images of your product, a title, description, quantities, pricing, and some basic information about sizing and shipping weight.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Setup payment & billing &#8211; Remember that the listing fee is $0.20 and transaction fees are 5% of the sale.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>That\u2019s it!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1229 \" src=\"https:\/\/www.webmonkey.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Etsy-open-shop.png\" alt=\"Etsy-open-shop\" width=\"702\" height=\"275\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Once this is set up, you have your own Etsy sticker shop that you can modify so it\u2019s to your liking. I also suggest adding an about section and a return policy to help with your store's credibility.<\/p>\n<p>You should also add a logo and several products as fast as you can so your store looks finished and well-stocked with stickers.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>3. Make Your Etsy Stickers<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Alright, this is probably the most difficult step when it comes to selling stickers on Etsy, so I'll keep things as brief as possible.<\/p>\n<p>The thing is, you have options for how you actually manufacture the stickers you sell.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The three main options include<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Using a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmonkey.com\/best-print-on-demand-for-etsy\/\">print on demand company<\/a> to make and ship your Etsy stickers whenever you make a sale<\/li>\n<li>Creating and ship stickers yourself<\/li>\n<li>Having someone create batches of stickers for you but handle shipping yourself<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Let\u2019s break down these options so you can find what works best for you.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Option 1: Sell Etsy Stickers Using Printify<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmonkey.com\/go\/printify\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Printify<\/a> is a popular POD provider that's an excellent option if you're just starting your sticker business because it prints and ships your orders for you<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>In other words, you can use Printify to create Etsy stickers to sell. When you make a sale, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmonkey.com\/printify-review\/\">Printify<\/a> manufacturers and ships the order, takes a cut, and you keep whatever's left over as profit.<\/p>\n<p>Printify is the print on demand company Tom used when he <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmonkey.com\/etsy-dropshipping\/\">sold POD products on Etsy<\/a> as a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmonkey.com\/college-side-hustles\/\">college side hustle<\/a>.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1240\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1240\" style=\"width: 399px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1240 \" src=\"https:\/\/www.webmonkey.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/printify-create-mug.png\" alt=\"printify-create-mug\" width=\"399\" height=\"438\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1240\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Creating products with Printify is actually so simple.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The product quality is top notch, Printify's design tool is intuitive, and you can also print magnets in addition to Etsy stickers.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, connecting your Printify account to your Etsy store just takes one click. You can also publish products from Printify to Etsy.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Printify has several sticker options to choose from, ranging in use, shape, and material. And stickers start at $1.18, leaving you plenty of margin when you sell<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Once you choose the option you want, you add your design and finalize your sticker for sale on Etsy.<\/p>\n<p>Printify lets you add the listing name, description\u00a0(which is where you\u2019ll want to try adding in some keywords and SEO friendly content to help your rankings), and price.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-22147 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.webmonkey.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Printify-sell-stickers-on-Etsy.jpg\" alt=\"Printify sell stickers on Etsy\" width=\"700\" height=\"300\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I suggest selecting the option to \u2018Make this product invisible on your online store,\u2019 so you can edit the listing before Etsy charges its $0.20 listing fee.<\/p>\n<p>It's also a good idea to test order some Printify stickers so you can see what your design looks like and if you're happy with product quality.<\/p>\n<p>However, Printify is my choice and Tom's choice for making Etsy stickers to sell and other products like t-shirts, hats, and mugs.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmonkey.com\/go\/printify\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><strong>Sign up for Printify and start selling on Etsy today!<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<h4><strong>Option 2 &#8211; Make Your Own Stickers To Sell On Etsy<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>If you want to make Etsy stickers to sell yourself, the process is a bit more complicated.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For starters, you need a few supplies. The first one is a vinyl sticker cutting machine\u00a0and the corresponding software for it<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>There are several options on the market and new models are coming out all the time, so it\u2019s recommended you do your own research for this and find the option that will best suit your needs.<\/p>\n<p>A few of the big names are Silhouette, eClips, Brother and Cricut, so you can start there and get an idea of what\u2019s available.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-10135 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.webmonkey.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Silhouette-stickers.jpg\" alt=\"Silhouette-stickers\" width=\"650\" height=\"233\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Just pay attention to how user friendly the machine is and what the size options are, to make sure it\u2019ll work for the designs you have in mind.<\/p>\n<p>I would check out the discussions in the Facebook groups for the cutting machines you\u2019re interested in to see how helpful the people are and what issues\/solutions they find.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Other sticker manufacturing supplies you need include<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Sticker Paper<\/strong>. This choice depends on what material and shine (i.e matte vs. glossy) you want. Once again, research what\u2019s available but make sure there\u2019s no printed logo on the back (not visually appealing), that there\u2019s slit\u2019s in the paper for peeling off the backing, and also how well the ink dries so it doesn\u2019t smudge.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Printer<\/strong>. Again, research is key with this one &#8211; but the option you end up choosing will depend on what you want to offer. Can the printer handle glossy paper which is thicker than normal? Will it leave indents on the paper? Does it print borders? What is the cost of the ink? How easy to use is the software? Does it have a scanner? All of these questions are important to consider when making your purchase, so make sure you have a good idea of what exactly you need your printer to do before investing.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Packaging<\/strong>. Since you're making stickers yourself, you're also responsible for shipping your Etsy orders. For packaging, you can choose to go with sturdy mailers or bubble mailers. Just be sure your products won\u2019t get damaged during shipping (adding tissue paper will help ensure the stickers don\u2019t get scratched).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>As a final tip, you can go the extra mile and design packaging that is branded for your business.<\/p>\n<p>An easy way to do this is to design a sticker with your logo on it and add it to your packages, which is a nice touch that will stand out to your customers.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Option 3 &#8211; Use a Sticker Printing Partner\u00a0<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Using a print on demand provider is one way to avoid manufacturing your Etsy stickers.<\/p>\n<p>But, you can also use a sticker printing service. These services take your sticker designs, manufacture a bulk order of stickers, and then ship them to you. You're then left to ship orders whenever you make a sale.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s great about these services is they specialize in printing stickers, so they\u2019re almost guaranteed to turn out exactly the way you want them.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A few popular sticker printers you can use to start selling stickers on Etsy include<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.stickerninja.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Sticker Ninja<\/strong><\/a>.

This is a very cost effective way to sell stickers since you don't have to go through the printing and cutting process. You also never have to replenish inventory since it's a digital file. These stickers are great to use in presentations, documents, and digital planners.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><strong>Branch Into New Sticker Types<\/strong>. There are several ways to diversify your store offerings other than selling individual stickers. Try making sticker sheets, laptop stickers, magnets, car stickers, water bottle decals, bumper stickers, sticker variety packs, or anything else you think might sell.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><strong>Focus On What Works<\/strong>. Keep track of what\u2019s selling and what\u2019s not. If your customers seem to love your cat stickers, but none of your other designs, then it might be a sign you need to refine your listings and focus on cat stickers.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This last point is especially important.<\/p>\n<p>For example, if your Etsy sticker shop sells animal stickers and you find that lion stickers sell great but dog ones are too competitive, listen to the market and make more lion designs!<\/p>\n<div class=\"entry-content-asset videofit\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Making $27,000 Selling Stickers on Etsy and Why You Should Too\" width=\"720\" height=\"405\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/NNRfIbmsa-s?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p>This YouTube video from Beneshopart also provides a step-by-step guide on how to make money selling stickers on Etsy and why picking the right niche and designs is so important.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Extra Reading &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmonkey.com\/make-digital-stickers-to-sell\/\">How To Make Digital Stickers To Sell<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>How To Scale your Etsy Sticker Business<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>After making a few Etsy sales, it's time to consider how you can turn this into a real lucrative business.<\/p>\n<p>Here are a few suggestions that might help:<\/p>\n<h3><strong>1.\u00a0Get Product Reviews For Your Etsy Store<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Something that should happen organically as you make sales on Etsy is product reviews.<\/p>\n<p>And, generally, the more reviews you have, the more reliable you\u2019ll look to possible customers (especially if they\u2019re all 5 stars).<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_10138\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10138\" style=\"width: 700px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-10138 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.webmonkey.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Etsy-reviews.jpg\" alt=\"Etsy-reviews\" width=\"700\" height=\"410\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-10138\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">One of Anna Kate's best sellers&#8230;just look at the reviews!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Buyers on this platform are often really generous with reviews and you\u2019ll easily get 5 stars if everything goes smoothly in the transaction.<\/p>\n<p>You can also improve your odds of getting that 5 stars by being responsive to customers and handling any complaints they have.<\/p>\n<p>When you're starting out with selling Stickers on Etsy, make an effort to go above and beyond with customer service to get as many 5 star reviews as possible.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>2. Research Etsy SEO & Optimize Your Products<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Etsy makes SEO a breeze by keeping track of the keywords customers use to find you on their platform.<\/p>\n<p>You can use this feature to improve your product titles and descriptions, so all of your products are showing up in every search that may apply to you.<\/p>\n<p>You can also try Etsy SEO tools like <a href=\"https:\/\/marmalead.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Marmalead<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/erank.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">eRank<\/a> to research Etsy keywords, top selling products, and learn how to improve your listings using data.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-10139 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.webmonkey.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/erank-Etsy.jpg\" alt=\"erank-Etsy\" width=\"600\" height=\"287\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Again, look at your Etsy dashboard over time to see the type of search keywords you rank for and optimize to rank higher for those terms.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>3.

For many consumers, Etsy is the go-to for anyone looking to purchase unique artwork of all sorts, and stickers aren't an exception.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Seller Fees<\/strong>. Etsy makes being a seller easy and affordable, only charging a small $0.20 listing fee for each item and a 5% transaction fee, both of which you can account for in your pricing.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Shipping<\/strong>. Etsy offers sellers reduced pricing with USPS courier service, so selling with them will save you money compared to if you were selling on your own.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Your Own Storefront<\/strong>.

With Etsy, you have way more control over your listings, brand, and how you grow your business.<\/p>\n<p>Plus, by writing robust product descriptions and following search engine optimization (SEO) best practices, you can rank your products on Google searches and within the Etsy marketplace itself.<\/p>\n<p>The bottom line is that Etsy is beginner-friendly, affordable, and has a large enough market to help you make money selling stickers online.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Frequently Asked Questions<\/strong><\/h2>\n<h3><strong>Do Print On Demand Stickers For Etsy Sell?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Yes, print on demand stickers can be sold on Etsy.
