Your host Raje dives into one of the most accessible, low-cost AI side hustles out there: selling Instagram Story templates. You don't need to be a graphic designer or have a massive following – just a free Canva account and a few hours a week.
In this episode, we're joined by Marcus Rodriguez, who leveraged this simple idea to go from zero to over $4,000 a month! Marcus reveals his exact blueprint for success, breaking down how to turn your creativity into digital passive income.
Discover how to:
  • Identify profitable trends on Instagram and Pinterest before you even start designing. Stop guessing, start looking for what's already in demand, like "Good Morning" or "New Product Launch" templates.
  • Utilize Canva's "Magic Design" AI tool to kickstart your creations, generating initial options that you can then tweak and personalize, adding your unique human touch and branding.
  • Properly set up your templates within Canva with editable text and image placeholders, making them foolproof and incredibly user-friendly for your buyers.
  • Generate the special Canva template link – this unique URL is your actual product, allowing customers to instantly access and edit your designs in their own Canva accounts without messing up your original.
  • Master the art of selling on platforms like Etsy, with crucial SEO tips to get your listings seen by eager buyers actively searching for Canva templates and social media content.
  • Price your template packs strategically (think $19-$39 for 5-10 templates) to maximize your earnings and provide exceptional value to your customers.
  • Market your templates effectively for free using quick video Reels and Pins on Instagram and Pinterest, instantly demonstrating the time-saving value of your product.
  • Avoid the biggest beginner mistake: over-designing. Learn why clean, professional, and simple templates with clear brand palettes and easy-to-read fonts sell best.

Marcus breaks down how to create unique, on-trend templates that busy entrepreneurs and small business owners are actively seeking – templates that save them real time and make them look professional in just two clicks. This isn't about generic free templates; it's about providing genuine value and convenience.
