today we're talking about one of the most popular s hustles ever Yep this is one that's making tons of money in fact one of the examples we're going to look at made over $9,300 in just one month selling this one item another example did over $600,000 in just one year selling stickers on Etsy and in this video we're actually going to look at the data we're going to show you what works why it works and step by step how you can create an Etsy sticker business that puts money in your pocket and I'm sure you've watched tons of videos on how easy it is to create stickers and get rich super quick but today you're going to learn the truth the nitty-gritty the details that other people are leaving out and not only am I going to show you this business how it works how to set it up step by step but I'm actually going to show you this process as I do it live yep that's right here at the affiliate marketing dude we actually test these side hustles every single day and this morning as I was getting ready for this video a thought occurred to me what if I set this up in a niche and let my subscribers watch the process Live start to finish that way you can be part of this follow along and get results for yourself and not only that but I'm going to reveal a free app that creat stickers for you using AI in a super simple way and we're going to show you what not to do like this guy over here printing Disney stickers yeah he's going to get sued in a hot minute but what we're talking about today is something super important and this is the secret sauce the gears the engine of what is going to sell stickers on Etsy because CU we all know it's 2024 and just uploading stickers on Etsy isn't going to make you rich unless you have this one crucial element and I'm going to share with you exactly how that works we're going to look at the data I'm going to show you tons of niches that you can use in a real world way where these stickers will literally fly off the shelf not to mention putting money in your pocket and all you got to do is smash a like button and leave a comment saying follow the pro process if you want to follow this process with me and we're going to get started in just a minute but first a story back about 10 years ago I had a major life struggle this was almost the end of my entire business and me as a person yep that's right I struggled with alcohol addiction and I'm happy to say that I'm over 9 years sober today and when I was looking for ways to stay sober and different things like that I actually came across quotes and phrases and there were different quotes and phrases that people would use in recovery that would help them get sober little things that you would tell yourself to help you not drink that day and some of these AA slogans were like easy does it let go and let God and different little cliches that really didn't resonate with me so I actually came up with some phrases that worked for myself and other people I knew that were trying to get sober also and back then there wasn't a whole lot of merchandise around this Niche there wasn't a lot of people doing anything other than the cliche AA type stuff which is fine but it wasn't my cup of tea I was more into philosophy and changing my life so that I really didn't need to drink anymore and today I got thinking to myself well there's some phrases that would work in sobriety and some different things that I can put on stickers that could make a lot of money and not to mention maybe it'll help people get sober by reminding them not to drink today so in preparation for this video I actually went out and set up this business I had my assistant create the Etsy account we got domain names that are based on this Niche and we're going to try it out with a sobriety Channel I have here on YouTube now this channel isn't big by any means we've badly neglected it and on every live stream we only have about 30 people and I think creating stickers for my audience will actually turn a good profit and you might be saying yeah but Marcus you have an audience built in even though it's only 30 people you're probably guaranteed to sell a few stickers and you know what you'd be right and because of that fact that the other site hustle people don't talk about I'm actually going to show you how to use AI to create your own following on Instagram Tik Tok YouTube Pinterest and tons of other platforms that will drive tons of traffic to your Etsy stickers and put money in your pocket so if you're ready to get started smash that like button let's hop on over to the computer show you the free tool how to create stickers how to find niches and ultimately how to make passive income selling stickers on Etsy all right in just a couple minutes I'm going to show you this free tool that literally makes stickers about anything using AI in a snap I can come over here and say no drinking sign and it'll actually go through and create whatever kind of sticker I want at the drop of a hat I can then use this and get like print on demand stickers or I can get a cricket machine and actually print these myself so we could see here it did a pretty decent job of a no drinking sign but we can even go in and do more and we'll talk about that in just a little bit first what we need to do here is we need to look at the data and what's actually going on because there's a step-by-step process that a lot of people are leaving out that's leading to people failing at at this s hustle because they think they just go out there and create some popular stickers and they're going to get rich overnight but that actually couldn't be further from the truth and to illustrate that point I have this my workout water bottle this is the water bottle I take with me when I go work out yes obviously you can tell I work out a lot and just yesterday when I was working out I saw this person with a water bottle and she had all these custom stickers on it like mine now does with our fancy llama and some of them even had little sayings like this one here don't give up to keep yourself motivated while working out and the cool thing about a lot of these stickers is they are actually waterproof and they stay there and they can go in the dishwasher and all kinds of things like that and I got to thinking well I think that is the number one problem people have when it comes to promoting stickers on Etsy they just out there looking at a keyword tool like this to see what kind of stickers people are looking up without thinking of a theme they might say well I saw some guy doing Cactus stickers therefore I'm going to go out there and sell Cactus stickers and I'm going to be rich overnight and therein lies the number one problem looking for one sticker one idea to make you rich overnight without any actual work but don't worry the work's not super difficult it's actually pretty easy first what we need to do is we need to find a niche people are passionate about and that is going to be our theme we need a theme to create multiple types of stickers around for example if we're looking up water bottle stickers we need to think about why would people use a water bottle what are they doing maybe they're working out and that leads to workout motivation which gets over 25,000 searches a month and now you have a built-in business yes ladies and gentlemen that is correct I can take something like Workout Motivation go to my free tool here and type in something like unicorn lifting weights right like this then I could save it and create other ones maybe I want a dut lifting weights cute and utilizing this Microsoft designer sticker Creator which you can find over at designer.
microsoft.com right like this then you scroll down and click on the sticker Creator now it's very important that you create your sticker business around a theme because once I have this I can then go to YouTube Pinterest Tik Tok Instagram or whatever it is and create an entire Channel like this all around gym quotes and workout motivation quotes which I can also create using AI That's right they're just going out there and posting different quotes about working out and you can see here if I type in Workout Motivation there's there's quite a few different Instagram accounts linking to all kinds of things related to workout motivation actually have quite a few followers imagine how much better your stickers are going to sell if there's actually a purpose that's right maybe like this one where it says no pain no gain we can create a sticker for that one in a snap post it in front of our audience and get sales literally overnight but you might be asking yourself well Marcus how am I going to find these themes and that is where I have a little hack for you we can use tools like the Allura Etsy Shop tool which is going to show us shops and how much they make and different things like that we can go over here to stickers and we can find different stickers that people want like address labels return address diecut vinyl stickers name labels and all kinds of crazy stuff like that and this is what most people do which is okay but again it's going to lead to really comp competitive markets with no theme and no reason for wanting to order notice how when we have Workout Motivation we are designing it around the theme of motivating them to work out not just buying a cute sticker with a dog on it and we can see over here that sobriety quotes has lots of videos with lots of different views that they can use to sell different stickers and quotes and things like that we can also go through and put in different topics with the word sticker like anxiety stickers we can see there's all different kinds of stickers related to anxiety and like this one here Wild Oak stickers 69,000 sales and this is something that's extremely simple to make but again it's focused on a different theme themes are super important and that's something a lot of people don't talk about and if we were to take a look at this guy here we can see that they have a lot of sales for all different stickers related to different different topics and themes this is super important and again over here we can type in Anxiety Quotes right like this and you could see that there's lots and lots of different channels talking about various different Anxiety Quotes that actually get quite a few different views and of course at the end of the video that you can create without your face without your voice with AI you could say something like check out my stickers to help you with your anxiety and then tell them to over to your website this is why it's super important to have a website that's easy to remember and if you don't want to build a following on YouTube or Tik Tok or Instagram or anything like that don't worry just posting these on their own and staying with the same theme and keywords and different quotes and things like that will start to build you a following on Etsy without even having to do social media as you can see here Etsy ranks for over 4,400 different keywords that are related to anxiety this is is something that you can build super fast and if you focus on stickers and things like that it's going to be super easy the next thing we're going to want to do here is look at the data and make sure that people are actually looking this stuff up are people watching videos and consuming things and Googling different things related to Anxiety Quotes and the answer is yes so make sure you use your tools like aura ahrs or the free Hoth keyword tool right like this where we can go over here and type something in like anxiety and see if it has some volume and we could see yes there is a theme and lots of things people are looking up we can even do Bible quotes or whatever it is or we can do something like sobriety quotes and again we could see lots of different searches people have for sobriety quotes this is actually super simple or we can even do something like Workout Motivation right like this and we could see again again lots of people searching we can even narrow it down and say what about just motivation maybe you can make stickers about motivational quotes or Monday motivation quotes and on and on we go so then once you found your theme and the data supports enough traffic to be able to sell these stickers and everything looks good we want to come up with a good easy domain name I actually got several for this example to show you exactly what's going on for the workout Niche I found iron stickers.com for pumping iron and I found one for stickers emojicon for emojis stickers Bible bumper stickers.com and verse stickers.com for verses now my favorite ones here are iron stickers.com because nobody's going to spell that wrong it's pretty easy and then in the sobriety Niche I actually went through and got sober stickers.com which I thought was a jackpot this is one that only cost me about $10 a year GoDaddy says it's worth over 1,500 bucks and I think it's pretty easy to remember then once we have our domain name and our Niche and our theme everything is ready to go we're going to put all this stuff together in a super easy way and to do that we're going to need to come up with some good designs and to do that we can use chat GPT yep we can actually use AI to do this entire thing we're going to say what are some images that represent workout motivations and we could see athletes in action quotes and sayings fits and healthy bodies group workouts Fitness Gear all kinds of stuff like that then we can say now please list some Fitness Gear and now this is is where the magic happens we can take these head over to the sticker Creator and say octopus running on treadmill generate then all the people that are interested in treadmill exercises can use the cute little octopus sticker on their water bottle or you can make little sayings and quotes and different things like that but this is actually pretty cool or we can use a different type of animal fish crust octopi dog running on treadmill right like this and if we have enough of these in each Niche let's say we do 25 different animals in each one and obviously they're only taking a couple seconds to create we can actually go through and say we have 25 different workout equipments times 25 different stickers that's like 625 different stickers we can sell or for the sobriety Niche I can say say what are some images associated with soety we could see here meditation and mindfulness meditation no drinking let's see what comes up this one's a little weird looking it looks like he's in a seat belt with a wine glass but we can keep asking it and get different examples meditation sobriety generate that's kind of interesting not sure it's going to help people get sober but to each his own or maybe we can do something like Serenity Prayer hey that's kind of cool or we can do something like onee sober chip with a relaxing Vibe of course it'll take a little work to get it to spell properly but you get the idea and we could see here this stuff is actually selling really really well utilizing the social media method this thing is going to go crazy then once we come up with some good designs we are going to go through in step five and create a store and a Blog about the stickers we create so I'm going to go out there and use my blog like sober stickers.com and start posting info on the stickers now it's important that we go through and we look at the different quotes and the different sayings and pair those with things people search for if I was to go over here to chat GPT like this and say what are 25 popular sobriety sayings right like this chat jbt is going to go to work and find the different sayings I can go through and take each of these and put them into my keyword tool like this and see that over 90,000 people a month are searching for this now it does happen to tie into a movie or something kind of show but if we put the word AA after it we could see 590 searches a month 210 110 and on and on we go and this is just one little sticker one day at a time alcohol recovery and just imagine what's going to happen if you use all these different sayings with all the different people who said them and link to the same kind of theme what's going to happen is people are going to click to view your sticker right like this and maybe they don't want that one but they are interested in recovery and Recovery type themes they're going to look at your other stickers those are going to get more traffic it's going to boost you up in the rankings you're going to get more sales and on and on we go and you can see here that a lot of these actually do get searched for and if you pick the right theme like anxiety or alcoholism or working out or water bottles or whatever it is and you do it correctly you should be able to get quite a bit of traffic now remember the results are not typical comp or guaranteed we don't know how much money you're going to make the average person trying to make money online makes nothing but once you start to look at this as a whole strategy and you start to realize that you can find a niche and a theme around things people are passionate about look at the data get a good domain name come up with good designs and then create the store and promote it and sell it utilizing social media Facebook groups or whatever it is then you're going to be a lot farther ahead of the people that say just upload a sticker and sit around and wait to get rich no we don't want to do that we want to go out there and actively promote this if we want to make thousands of dollars a month selling stickers we need a full out strategy that's going to work and if you want to follow this process and learn more about how I'm building this in my sobriety Niche

money in your pocket
