I'll show you how you can sell stickers
like these to make money in no time at all.
First go to Pexels
which is a site you can use to get free images from.
Search for what you want.
For this example, I'll type "cat".
Here are thousands of adorable cat pictures.
I'll go with this one.
Click download.
Now you've got the image,
go to Remove.bg.
This removes the background automatically for free.
Select your image.
And it takes less than a second
for the background to be removed.
Download it and then upload it to Redbubble
so you can sell it as a sticker.
Click here to change the markup.
If you set it to 100%
you'll get between $3.59 and $26.60 profit
every time someone buys it.
You can leave it at about 20% until you get your first sale
and then increase after that.
That way you know the margin isn't responsible
for you not getting any sales.
Now, I know that you're a responsible person,
so you must be thinking, hang on Uncle Owl, is this legal?
What does the licensing look like?
Here it is on Pexels for you.
All photos and videos can be used for free.
Attribution isn't required,
but... you can't sell unaltered copies.
So the question is, does cutting out part of the image
count is altering it?
According to the terms and conditions
and specifically clause 5.5,
you can use the content in any way you want
even commercially, but you need to update, modify
or, otherwise incorporate new creative elements.
Now there's no written definition
as to what the words "modify" or "update" actually mean.
I contacted Pexels weeks ago for clarification
but got no response.
If I get an update, I will put in the description for you
so check down there.
For now though, if you want to play it safe,
in addition to updating and modifying
the image on Remove.bg, you can also incorporate
new creative elements into the design.
This can be as simple as drawing something on the images
like these glasses, or this skateboard,
or this beard and hat, whatever you want.
It really doesn't have to be amazing.
In fact, sometimes the more ridiculous it is
the better it sells.
People love weird stickers, and you can incorporate elements
from your chosen niche into the design
so it appeals to your target audience.
You can also edit stuff like the saturation or the color,
Control + U is the keyboard shortcut for this.
I'll go to layer style and drop shadow to add a shadow,
or stroke to add an outline.
Whatever effects you think will look good on your image.
Now let's take it to the next level.
You can get a few images from the same search
or find similar images like I'm doing with these cats.
Remove the backgrounds again with Remove.bg.
Then just drag them into Photoshop
and make a sticker pack by placing them together.
This means customers get several stickers for the same price
a better deal so they're more likely to buy from you
instead of someone offering only one sticker.
And they'll probably buy a bigger size too
which means more profit for you.
You can even add text if you want.
Something relevant to your chosen niche,
which will then be cut out
as another sticker for your customer.
The canvas size you'll want to use is 2,800 by 2,800.
This makes sure all your stickers fit on all sizes
offered by Redbubble.
You can search for whatever you want
and find thousands of images to choose from.
What about a cactus themed sticker pack for plant lovers?
Same process again, just download it, remove the background
and edit it in whatever way you want.
There's thousands of images to choose from.
If you want to cute animal pack
there's almost 60,000 results to look through.
If you go to the top right,
you can filter by orientation, size and color.
Search for Halloween, and you can create seasonal packs
to target Halloween, or Christmas.
You can do this for big events through the year,
or just go for evergreen content
that will sell all year round.
There are lots of websites
like Pexels you can use to find images like these.
Pixabay is another good one.
And there's Unsplash and Pikwizard.
I'll put a whole list of them in the description
so you can use whatever you want.
You can combine elements from these sites
to create something great.
There's also loads of websites with free vector images
for commercial use.
I'll put a list of them in the description as well.
Just check the licensing
and make sure you can use each image
that you like the look of.
On Pexels, you can click any image
and see the licensing information underneath.
And click info for more detailed specifications.
Make sure you read the license
if you're using a different platform
as you don't wanna get in trouble.
Once you've done it a few times though,
you'll get to know the websites
and it will become second nature.
One final bit of advice for you about sizing
and making sure your products look great,
Remove.bg gives you a transparent file for free,
but the resolution isn't huge as you can see.
You can get the full HD resolution download
but you'll need 1 credit.
The first credit's free for signing up.
Then it works at out about 16 cents per image
if you want huge resolution files to use on Redbubble.
If you don't want to pay
then you can resize the images yourself manually
using Photoshop or Photopea.
Just drag your image in and adjust it however you want.
That will affect the quality though.
There is a free site called Waifu,
which can upscale your image to twice the size
without losing quality.
That wizardry is beyond my comprehension but it works
and it's great.
I'll put this page from Redbubble in the description
so you can check it out
and get more tips about how to design for stickers.
