Spring makes it easy for you to create products and make money selling them. However, many of our users struggle to make even one sale. If that’s you, or you believe you’re not getting as many sales as you should, don’t sweat it! Check out the steps below to learn the secrets to creating and selling like a boss on Spring!

1. Design Graphics Tailored to Your Following

Your fans are your biggest supporters–and who you’re selling your products too,–so make them the inspiration behind your designs. Center your creations around those special moments from your content that your fans know and love—the funny jokes, the memorable quotes, or even your beloved sidekick, like your pet. Let your designs reflect the vibe of your community, with a playful touch that only your true fans will appreciate.

If you’re stuck on what to make, take advantage of your social media fam by running polls or surveys to get their input directly. Find out what designs they’re vibing with, what gets them excited, and let their feedback guide your creative process.

And if you’re looking for some extra design mojo, dive into the world of AI design tools. Check out these three free platforms:

Canva:

Canva is a great beginner tool with an easy interface that makes designing images and text easy to do. It also offers a new AI feature where you can request specific images to be created for you.

Pixlr:

Whether you’re a newbie or a pro, Pixlr’s AI-powered tools have got you covered. From basic edits to cool effects that’ll make your designs pop, Pixlr makes it easy to bring your vision to life.

Gravit Designer:

Try vector design with Gravit Designer’s intuitive features and AI-driven capabilities. With powerful tools at your fingertips, you’ll be creating captivating designs in no time.

With these tools in your arsenal, you’ll be whipping up designs that speak directly to your audience, paving the way for a merch launch that’s as unique as you are.

2. Pick the Perfect Products

When it comes to choosing products for your designs, think about what your fans would actually want to snag. If you’re a gaming creator, consider slapping your designs on desk mats, phone cases, and other cool tech gear. Or, if you’re more into the fitness scene, try leggings, sports bras, or water bottles. You want to make sure you cater to your audience’s interests.

You’ll also want to keep the seasons in mind. When the chilly weather rolls around, cozy hoodies and long sleeves are a must-have. But when the sun’s shining, tank tops and board shorts are where it’s at.

3. Keep the Launch Party Going

Spring gives you the green light to launch as many products as your heart desires. Why? So you can experiment, of course! Test out different designs and product types to see what gets your followers buzzing. And hey, if something doesn’t quite hit the mark, no sweat—you can easily unlist it and move on to the next big thing.

But here’s where the magic happens: Take note of what works and what doesn’t. What designs have your fans raving? What products are flying off the shelves? Use that golden info to fine-tune your strategy for future launches and keep the good vibes rolling.

4. Highlight Your Hottest Hits

Give your best sellers the spotlight they deserve and make them easier for your fans to find on your storefront.

Here’s how to place products at the front of your store:

Click on Stores on the left-hand menu.
Select Edit Store
Click Products
From there, you can star any products you want to feature at the top of your store.

5. Order Samples and Use Them in Your Content

Using samples in your content can increase your sales by 300%! So get your hands on some samples of your products and incorporate them into your content strategy. Whether it’s unboxing videos, photoshoots, or giveaways, showing off your products in action can drive interest and sales.

6. Spread the Word on Social Media

Once you have your designs and products live, it’s time to turn up the volume on your socials and get the word out about your awesome merch! Hit up all the platforms where your fans hang out and start showing off your awesome products.

Whip up some eye-catching social graphics and videos that showcase your products in all their glory. Talk ’em up, show ’em off—whatever it takes to get your fans excited to hit that “add to cart” button.

Also, don’t forget to drop your store link in your bio to make shopping for your products easy, as well as add our social integrations.

7. Reach Out with Email Campaigns

Email campaigns are a great way to boost sales and keep your fans engaged/aware of your new drops.

If you have an email list, use it to share exciting updates about your latest merch drops, exclusive deals, or behind-the-scenes peeks into your creative process. With the right message, you’ll have ’em hitting that “buy now” button in no time.
