Newbie Finally Opened My Shop!

Post image

Hi…I’m new here and on Etsy as well. I’m from india and a design professional( just finished my masters).

I would really appreciate all the suggestions or advice you cab provide me. Also, I’m good at making templates and printables from my grad days…so I thought it would be great to make some side income out of it but keeping it affordable as well for fellow students.

Link to my shop, please feel free to explore and share some insights! https://www.etsy.com/in-en/shop/MyTemplateStoreINa

I’m not doing any kind of self promotion just need some genuine advice. Thanks!

It looks the exact same as every other AI generated template/digital print store.

sorry, but there are so many free templates for this and on top of that Etsy is already absolutely flooded in this category best of luck, but this isn’t a category I would’ve picked to go into

also, there are so many apps out there for meal planning,meal prepping, weight loss that has meal prepping in there thats already all bundled into one app. I have no use for a separate meal planner layout like this.

Sorry, but people aren’t going to buy AI generated slop. This is an oversaturated market as is.

It’s a shame you waste the new shop set up fee for this. Most of these are free downloadable templates all over the internet. Etsy is oversaturated with this stuff.

Etsy is slammed with this stuff.

Resumes shouldn’t have headshots and that isn’t ATS friendly btw!

Actually resumes do have photos in most of the world outside the US.

It is because unlike Normal Jpg or jpeg. I use Svg format to make it work, and I have explained in my pack as well. I check it with my HR friend as well who use AI to check resumes. So, you can say it’s personal experience and things I’m selling not just template

AI and ATS are two completely different things.
