I’m a university student who does art on the side. I was thinking of selling my art through stickers, but I have no clue how or where to start! All of these videos I’ve watched tell me to buy expensive machines and all that but I don’t want to buy all of that from the get go because I’m afraid of wasting my money. Any ideas on what to do? Do people send their work to sticker businesses and buy in bulk? What types of environmental friendly envelopes/packaging would you guys recommend? Is Etsy the safest place to start?
Hey there! I specialize in the custom sticker and sign business. Here’s a few pointers.
Etsy- YES! Good idea, but only if you find a way to sell to people based on things that are currently popular. (Without violating copyright)
Ordering- order from a small scale manufacturer, that way you can work closely with them for the right product instead of buying from a larger company with questionable quality.
I’d love to discuss in more depth! I’m going to send you a DM!
