How to Sell Digital Products on Etsy FAST (With AI Tools Like MyDesigns!)

Do you want to build an Etsy shop exactly like this one? In this video, I'll show you how to use my designs to create, scale, and publish hundreds of high-quality PNG clip art files, just like that shop I showed you, even if you're starting from scratch, all from one platform, no additional tools needed. Let's get started. All right, so first, we're gonna do just a quick look at product research. I'm gonna use EHA and maybe a little bit of Allura to kind of see what is selling well in the clip art space. So I came over to EHA. I put in Floral Clip Art, as you can see here, and all I did is sorted this by digital products, and for the release date, release time, I went back to March 1st of this year, so 2025 up until now, so just over 90 days, and then I just wanted to just filter that and see with Floral Clip Art what is selling well, because Floral does really well in Etsy, generally speaking, that style of design. So I'm scrolling through these. Let me minimize this. Scrolling through these, and one thing that popped out is I see the Sea Turtle P&G. This was released on March 4th, 2025. Over the last seven days, it's had 25 sales, and since release, 314 sales. So just over 90 days, 314 sales. That's great for P&G, especially if you can scale it, which I'm gonna show you how to do. So scrolling a little bit further, let's go down. You can see this Floral style is obviously quite popular. Again, at the bottom here, another Floral Sea Turtle P&G. So that got me thinking when I was doing a bit of research that there's obviously potential here. This one has 82 sales. It was March 29th. So both of them basically at the end of March. In the last 90 days, collectively, they've generated upwards of, what, 400 plus sales. This one had 15 over the last seven days. So I'm gonna teach you how to scale this general idea. Do it quickly. So I wanted to show you first off there. So let's go up, and I already pulled up this shop, so let me go over. So this is that particular listing. In 18 carts, they're selling it for $1.98, 50% off, so $3.96 here. And it's obviously doing really well. You look at the reviews. There's a lot of people that are very happy with this. It's a bestseller, so what more proof do you need there? Obviously, it's a design and a particular style of design that works, especially in the summer months. So that is that, and let me go over to the actual shop here, the Bambi. So this is the shop I was referring to, 52,777 sales. If you scroll through their shop, they got just a bunch of different style of designs, but I've noticed that floral's really popular. So if I look at allure on this particular shop, when is it, 2024. So this shop opened up at the end of May in 2024, so it's been open for just barely over a year. They've had 50,647 sales, 151,941 in revenue, with almost a 4% conversion, which I think you can bump that up for digital products, but they're doing fairly well. So, I mean, in one year, that's really good. That'll pay your mortgage all year long. So let's go now to the other particular listing I found in those search results, this one here. Again, in 20 plus carts, they're selling this one for $3, and it's obviously doing very well. Lots of reviews for this particular product. Again, it's been up for just over 90 days. And now let's look at the shop selling this one. So 10,156 sales. I'm not sure, I didn't mean to click down. I'm not sure when they opened this shop. They don't have a whole lot of listings up, but again, very simple P&G clip art designs. If you scroll down, look at this. This is what I wanted to show you. So they got a sea turtle, they got a seahorse, they got a dolphin. And look at this, over 20 people have this in their cart, 20 people, 12 people, 11 people here. They got a shark, a whale. You can see a lot of different sea creatures. So when I looked at this, I'm like, obviously there's demand. People love this particular floral style, kind of with a mix of a boho style, which does really well on Etsy. And it's a digital P&G clip art that you can just produce in My Designs with Dream AI, go and publish in bulk to save you an unbelievable amount of time. But basically what I wanted to show by showing you this is there's demand for this particular type of product, and I'm gonna show you how to create that. So let's go over to, well, one more thing. I'm gonna go over to this free research tool that I built, my team and I built at Merch Titans. I'm under Etsy Keyword Research. And I'm just gonna type in floral real quick just to show you the search. And what this keyword research tool does for Etsy is it pulls in all of the autosuggested keywords from your base keyword, and it does it incredibly fast. If you look at this list, that's a lot of keywords, right? So I'm not gonna spend too much time on this. But anyway, floral, 1.2 million searches per month. This is coming directly from Google data, which is the most accurate. And then you got floral clip art. That's what we're looking for. 165,000 searches per month. So that's plenty of demand. If you optimize your listings the right way, you can absolutely start printing sales pretty fast. So one more thing, let's just type in sea turtle. I'm not gonna put clip art at the end because I wanna see what Etsy is autosuggesting. So we got tattoo, images, and there it is, clip art. So sea turtle clip art, 5,400 searches per month. Medium competition. It's trending upwards in these summer months. Just a perfect time to get started. So hopefully I didn't take too long with that. That just goes to show tons of demand, great niche to get into. So I wanna scale that between, I came up with the idea right before the video. I'm gonna do the top 15 sea creatures and the top probably 15 animals. I guess it's about 30 plus ideas to go after. So knowing that, now let's just move right over to my designs, go over to the listings page here. I'm logged into my designs. I'm under the listings page. The very first thing you wanna do if you're gonna follow along, which I recommend, I'm gonna teach you how to build a shop just like those that are performing really well. Go click home. And from here, I just created a demo folder for this video. And then I created this floral boho animals digital folder. You can name it whatever you want. So with that being said, you can do that just by clicking add folder, input the name here, keep the default template. That's really important. And then just save it. Once you save it, it'll appear here. You can click on it, click open. And now we are off to the races. So first things first, going over to Dream AI, you do not need any design experience. I'll share some prompts with you here once this loads up. But I already went ahead and generated a bunch of these using the GPT image one model. This one's fairly expensive, but it does a really good job. And I have it outputting the background as transparent as you can see here. So I'll share this prompt with you. In fact, this is the seahorse, but I have a bunch of them here, so let's just go over this particular prompt. So, and again, I'll leave this in the description of the video so you can find it and scale it in your own way. But a vibrant and colorful boho floral illustration of a seahorse. The seahorse is adorned with a myriad of flowers, including pink, orange, and blue blooms. The seahorse's body is painted in a gradient of blue, transitioning from a light shade at the edges to a deeper hue in the center. The background is transparent. So that's all I did. And then I used our scale feature here, basically said scale this out to the top 10 or top 15 sea creatures, or most popular sea creatures. And then again, I did it again later for the most popular animals. So with that being said, I already went and generated a bunch of these, as you can see. In some cases I regenerated them if it didn't look how I wanted. But most of these turned out just great. I really liked the particular style that this came across with. So I'm gonna run with these. So I'll show you the rest of these, but first what we're gonna do is just go through and select these, and we're gonna upscale them and save them to our listings page, that folder we created. And then we can get right into the fun stuff. Okay, so I'm probably not gonna take both of these. I'll just take the best from each. This one obviously was cut off, so that's why I regenerated it. So out of these two, they're both good, but I'll take this one. And I'm just gonna go through and just save the best of these. And when I'm done, I'll resume video and we'll save them and go from there. All right, so I selected all of those and I did wanna show you the sea turtle. These turned out great. I think this particular one's awesome. You could regenerate it. I guess it does in this particular one. I'll probably go with this. I could regenerate it and get more variations, but you see there's many of these that we have selected already. So at that point, you can see up here that I have 30 designs generated right inside Dream AI using the GPT image one model, two images each, resolution one, one, quality high. And that's it. So let's save these. And in doing so, you can leave all these settings the exact same, but you do wanna upscale these. So under upscale, go to choose the MD1 model. It's two credits per image, but you wanna select that and then save to listings and yes, store images. It'll take a little longer because what it's doing is upscaling all 30 of those images by 4X. So there'll be 4,096 by 4,096 pixels. So when that's done, we'll move right over to the listings page. All right, so that is done. So we'll go to listings. And now in our folder, you'll see we have all of those. I changed the view up here to grid view. That way it just is more of the images themselves. All ready to go. Look at that. There are 30 of these. So 24 per page. If I go to the next page and there are the rest. Already with a transparent background, they all look beautiful. Now, the next thing I like to do is just open these up in Canvas. Let me show you quickly how to do this. Canvas, I selected all first. Up here, just go select all. Click this checkbox and it'll select everything. Go Canvas, Template, and go Custom. And we're gonna have 4,096 by 4,096. Create that. This is kind of an optional step, but I like to do it. I'm gonna add all of these to the listing file. And what you can do, basically what I do here is I kind of make these a bit bigger. So in this case, I could sync that across all of them, but then you're gonna have some that are too big. So I would just go back and probably fit the artboard and I could readjust the size and just make sure it's centered. But I like to go through and just do that to all of them and then we'll save it as a PNG. So I'm gonna pause video and we'll resume it once I'm done. All right, so I went through all those. Now just click Save, top right. And what we're going to do is actually override the original file. Leave it as a PNG and just click Save. And yes, override all files. It actually compresses the file, makes it a bit smaller, which is one of the reasons I like to do it. But if you wanna make little fine-tunements to the design and the size on that print area here, there the 4,096 template, then that is a good way to do it. So that's processing now. Shouldn't take too long to complete. As you can see, it's going really fast. And then we'll move on to the next step. Basically, that is the file we're selling. So now we already have all 30 of those ready to go. So the next step here is, well, we just gotta generate mock-ups. And I created mock-up profiles specifically for you so that you can do this incredibly fast. So what you need to do is you have all of your images, your listing selected here. Go to mock-ups right here on the left. Choose image mock-ups. And go to load profile. And you'll see these under public profiles. You're looking for this digital PNG clip art, June 17th, 2025. That's the profile you wanna load. For you, it's gonna be available under public profiles, but for me, it's private because I created it. And just click that. What it will do is select all these mock-ups for you. And if we go to the first, has the colors for you, has your input file if you're following along. You can adjust the header color, the footer color here, and the background color for this particular. Let me just generate a preview for you real quick so you can see it. But you can control the color of like this PNG. This is the header up here. This would be the footer down here. But you can see that's a beautiful main mock-up for this design. And then you have just showing your design on different shirts and whatnot. So let's just click generate. So once you load the profile, you don't need to adjust anything if you don't want to, but you can. But you can just click load profile and then click generate mock-ups. And already has all of the output file slots set up the right way. So you'll see how easy this is for us. We went and generated what, I think four mock-ups per 30 listings. So 120 mock-ups we're generating in mere seconds. And so those will be done shortly. All right, those are almost done. One more to go. There it is. Now they all populate down here. So if we want to view those, I can double click on the file slot here to make it the active file slot across this entire collection. But look how good those look. Beautiful, beautiful mock-ups. Now, of course we do have the T-shirt versions showing on T-shirt. This would be more like a hoodie. And I think this is the Bella three or the, no, this is a comfort color shirt. This is the Gildan 18,000 sweatshirt. So just beautiful mock-ups here. So we are almost ready. One more thing while we're at it, you should just generate a video mock-up too. So go back to mock-ups, go to video mock-ups. You don't want to use your file here. What I would do is select these and this is the order they'll generate in. Because this is the main mock-up, I'm going to put that at the end, but you can just generate it however you want. And it's going to automatically select the video output, video mock-up output slot, and just click submit. Now we're generating 30 video mock-ups on one mock-up per listing. So that'll be done shortly. And then we'll move on to generating our listing data using Vision AI, which will scan our designs and write our optimized titles and tags for Etsy, because that's where we're selling these products. And then we can go publish. All right, so that is done. If I click on one of these videos, click play, you'll kind of see it's just a transitional slideshow going through the mock-ups we have. And now you have a video mock-up for Etsy. All right, so let's move back to ListView and let's go to Vision AI here. And you want to make sure your input file is that main file because that's what this AI is going to scan. Now for product type, I would uncheck t-shirt and just go to the bottom, check digital and check other. And at that point, that's great. Now from here, this platform you're selling on Etsy, the model is going to be MD1 2.5, I recommend that. We only want to generate the title and tags. So description, you can just change, don't generate this. I have a template for your description you can use after and I'll leave that in the description of the video. But for the product type, I'm going to say digital download PNG, PNG. So, and now down here, this is really important under custom instructions. We want to give the AI more instructions of kind of how we want these listings to look. So I actually built some of these that I will share with you and I'll move this over so you can see. So this is it. What I did is already created an example title and example tags using good keywords that I wanted to kind of analyze but adjust it based on the design itself. So basically analyze my design and then write the titles and tags exactly as shown in examples below, except adjust the text where necessary so that it matches what's on the design. So I gave it an example title, you can see sea turtle PNG, sea turtle clip art, beach PNG, turtle PNG, boho floral turtle, sublimation PNG and digital download. Same thing with tags, got a lot of the same keywords but additional ones as well. So basically I'm going to take these custom instructions and again, they'll be available in the description of this video. I'm gonna put it into the custom instructions field and from here, I don't need that extra space. All I do is just generate listing data. Yes, run Vision AI, it'll scan all 30 of these main design files here and store the title and tags in the title and tags field. So that shouldn't take too long to do. All right, so that is almost done. And as you can see, there you go. So floral lion PNG, lion clip art, boho lion, flower lion, digital download PNG, sublimation design, lion with flowers. And you look at the tags, these look quite good. And floral sea turtle PNG, turtle sublimation design, turtle clip art, sea turtle digital, boho turtle PNG, digital download. So it does a really good job of writing your titles and tags for you, especially if you give it custom instructions. You can always go in on Etsy or do it here before you publish and improve them further. But this will get you 80, 90% of the way complete in terms of your SEO for your listings. So I highly recommend you use it. Now we need to add our description. So I'm gonna go quick actions, edit in bulk. And for the description, change the select field for action. You're gonna go description. And the choose the action, you're just gonna go overwrite. I mean, there's nothing in the field, but I have a pre-made description. Let me pull that up. Here it is. Let me make this a little bigger so you can see it. So it has listing title. Basically, it's gonna put the title of the listing at the top of the description. And then it's got the rest of the details about this particular listing, which is good to go. So I'm just gonna copy this, control C, and then paste it in here. And you could preview it here. So as I said at the top, this listing.title in the brackets, it's taking listing here and title and filled it within that dataset. So now it's just inserting that as you can see here at the top. And then there's your description. Now we're gonna apply that to all of these. And that's how easy it is. So now we got our descriptions for each of these and we are good to publish. So this is really easy at this point. This is what My Designs is so great for. You can do absolutely everything in bulk. So I'm gonna take all 30 of these, go up to publish, go to the digital side here and click Etsy. If you haven't connected Etsy to My Designs, you won't see this yet, but you can do that from your account settings. Just go to shops and connect your Etsy shop. So let's go back to publish, digital, Etsy. And what you wanna do under select mode is choose select files to sell. And now this is just one file, this PNG clip art file we're selling. So just select that only. Go next step. And now you're choosing your mock-ups. So it should automatically, you can see it automatically selected them all, but if it didn't, make sure you select them. And if you wanna reorganize the positioning of these mock-ups, you can just drag and drop like that. But I'm gonna keep this as the primary mock-up obviously. And then you can just drag and drop these however you see fit. But I'll go back to the order we had it in. So again, I could toggle through all my listings. So you can see the other ones here too, but that is it. So now you can add a watermark if you want. It's just a basic watermark that My Designs adds over all your mock-ups. I don't recommend it, but a lot of people love it. So that's how you do it. You add that and then just add the text you want for the watermark. So I'm gonna uncheck that. Go next step. And from here, it's just, we already generated our titles, descriptions, and tags. So that data's here. But down here under price and quantity, we need to adjust this. So go to bulk edit. So we applied all 30 of these listings. For the price, I'm gonna go with that 396 price point because I like to run a 50% off discount. And then for the quantity, I'm gonna go 999. Apply changes in bulk. And that is done. So now we can go to the next step. And this is the last step where you just preview it. You choose the category and the shop. If you have multiple Etsy shops, you'll see them here. This is a demo account, so we just have our demo shop connected. But you can preview your actual listings right here before you publish. And obviously everything looks good to go. So in the categories digital, that's where I want it. So just click publish. And now we will go ahead and publish all 30 of those listings to your Etsy shop. They're going to appear in your Etsy drafts folder. So from your drafts, once they're published, you can go to drafts, select all, change them to a section if you want, and then publish them on Etsy. And then from there, once they're published, I'll actually go over and show you what that looks like on the Etsy site because we create a PDF file that's non-branded. It just has a download link. It says thank you for your purchase. Here's you can download your files. So they download the PDF, they open it up, they click the download link. That redirects them to a unique link at MyDesigns that downloads this file for them. Very seamless and intuitive, but that's the full process. So once these are done publishing, which we're already almost halfway there, then I'll move over to my demo Etsy shop and show you the rest of that process. All right, you can see those are done. So I'm going to go over to my shop manager. Let me refresh this. And under drafts, you see 30. Let's click into this. And there you see that I'll have a video as well. There you have every single one of these. So I'm going to select all. I'm going to edit this, change section. You can choose a section. I'm probably just going to call these, let's see. I think I had a summer section there. Go back. That's t-shirts. We'll just do floral PNG. I'll just call it that. And you can obviously name that whatever you want. The Etsy's kind of bugged. You have to go back into this after you create the section, select it, and then apply it. Now it moved all those to that section. And you could just publish these if you want to publish them. I'll just do it for this demo. And now they're all live on Etsy. So the next thing, if I need to pull one of these up, let me just open this listing. Got your title, all your mock-ups, the video mock-up, the download here, which is the PDF, the description, everything's the price. Everything's good to go. So this is ready to go. Let's just go view it on Etsy so you can see what that looks like. There you have it. Absolutely beautiful. There's the video mock-up. There are the different mock-ups we chose. And by the way, there's a ton of mock-ups available in the mock-ups generator at My Designs. So you can look through that and find what you want, but this is good to go. So that's how easy it is for you to create best-selling PNG clip art designs for Etsy's digital products and do it very fast, do it all within one platform, which is My Designs, and handle that entire workflow. So I took a little longer with this video, but when you get used to this process, you can do this at such a fast pace. You can just spend more time on research, finding those good niches, those good ideas, crafting good dream AI prompts. And then from there, you can create this workflow that's just so streamlined, making it incredibly easy and fast to get up digital products or even print-on-demand products if you're selling those too. But from here, I basically run a 50% off discount and that's it. I did say I would show you what the download looks like. So let me actually download this. This is what the customer receives when they purchase your product. Just a PDF file. A lot of time it's gonna open in Chrome, but I open mine in Acrobat. And then they just come to this unique link. There's no branding. Automatically will download their PNG. So I can open up that zip file and open up the file. And there you can see there's your file. So that's how the full process works. If you have questions, let me know by leaving a comment below, but that's it for this video. We'll see you in the next one.
