Step 3: Get Creative with Your Business Name

The name that you choose for your business will largely define your brand. First impressions matter, so your business name has to give potential customers an idea of exactly what it is that you sell.

Your name will also help you specify to your audience what niche of printables you are selling. Your brand’s name should be able to help consumers directly connect your business to your products.

It should be seen as a beacon pointing directly towards the type of printables you sell. Take time to brainstorm a list of potential names for your brand. You want to keep the name short enough that it doesn’t overwhelm, and creative enough to stick out....

Step 2: Create a Customer Avatar

Once you can create an image of who your target audience is, you can begin to plan out how to market to them. Once you can correctly characterize your customers, you will be able to properly understand what they are looking for in a quality product.

 For example, if you are looking to focus on printables that provide organization, you could market towards other entrepreneurs, parents, students, and anyone else with a busy schedule.

If you want to focus on a certain age group, you can change up the aesthetics of your printables to make them most appealing towards your target audience. Or you can focus on weddings.

You can create printables for invitations, to-do lists, thank you cards, and welcome sheets. There will always be wedding planners and engaged couples on the lookout for printables that fit their wedding themes.....

30 Steps to Printable Success

Creating a plan for your business is essential for any entrepreneur. You need to lay out a set of steps that will push you and your brand towards the greatest possible chance of thriving with your new endeavors.

Trying to tackle everything at once will only cause a lack of organization and efficiency. You could become overwhelmed, which will end up stalling your overall progress. With 30 smaller steps to follow, you can follow a trail that leads to success.

Choosing to create your business with printables requires research and a targeted niche. You can target a wide audience with a broad selection of printables, or you can tune in to a specific niche.

Below, you’ll find the important tasks necessary to build a printables brand that stands out among the competition and helps you cater to the needs of a hungry audience desperate for immediate downloads they can put to use in their lives.

Step 1: Brainstorm Your Printable Products

One of the many reasons people choose to sell printable products is due to the wide variety of printable options available. For example, printables can be templates for to-do lists, weddings, budgeting, events, and any other planning needs.

You can even sell printable stickers for customers to use in their journals and planners. Some printables can be more structured, with detailed design and layouts, while others can be left blank, leaving the details up to anyone who purchases them.

You can also create specific pages for calendars, planners, and journals. If you can design a piece of paper to be a useful product, you can sell it as a printable. Once you figure out what kind of printables you want to sell, you can focus on the lens you use for your target audience....

Building a business online requires you to handle many different tasks. You want to keep your attention on the steps that will bring in revenue. Usually, this means doing things like getting more subscribers on your list.

You can’t sell products if you don’t have an audience to pitch to. Whether you’re an info product creator, affiliate marketer, service provider or something else online, you need to get eyes on your offers so that you turn a profit with your online efforts.

It won’t do you any good if you put all your energy into building the business, but you fail to understand how to get people to your sites or to sign up for your mailing list. You must know how to attract people - and the best way to do that, contrary to some advice, is not by forking over a lot of your money to pay for space online like with social media ads.

Instead, you want to channel your energy into your search engine optimization (SEO) efforts. Doing this not only draws in an audience organically (and free), but it makes a difference in your long term goal - which is making your business financially sustainable.....

Day 5

Customer Service Procedure - Respond to What Your Audience Mentions or Points Out

When someone from your audience gives you their opinion about an issue, you’ll want to pay attention. This can be constructive criticism that, if it’s useful and you heed it, can improve your business.

You might have someone reach out to you and tell you that your font is too light. Or they might point out that there’s too much text or that the posts are too wordy. You could use a darker font and see how that works.

You could also try streamlining and shortening your posts or switching to a different format such as using bulletpoints. If someone tells you something they’re struggling with, it might make you think of something you can create based on that issue.

Mention to those who do take the time to reach out that you appreciate them. Share what they’ve said and you could even turn that into a blog post pointing out what steps you took to address that issue.

Send the person who reached out a surprise that’s relevant to the topic. When you have a plan to handle your business, it can help you stay organized so that all your tasks are done well and in a timely manner.....

Day 4

Product Launch Procedure - Develop Items for Your Audience

On this day, it’s time to take the ideas and outlines you’ve worked on and develop products that your audience can use and that you’ll be able to promote to them. If you’re relatively new to this part of having an online business, it might take you some time to do the first product, but you will get faster as you go along.

If you don’t like the idea of doing it yourself, you can always hire someone to make it. Or you can buy a private label rights license to use and sell something like an eBook or video course as your own production.....

Day 3

Social Marketing Procedure - Make a Variety of Media Content to Share

This task involves creating media that you’re going to upload on whatever online real estate you’re consistently on. You’ll want to include this content on sites like your Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, Twitter, etc.

 If you don’t have anything created, you can share things specific to or helpful about your niche like pictures, other videos, audio and more. You’ll want to talk about whatever it is

you’re sharing if it’s not your own work and tell the audience the purpose behind sharing it.

End by prompting the audience to comment (so that you’re interacting with them), like or share it. Make sure you’re checking back for engagement so that you keep the conversation alive....

Day 2

Email Marketing Procedure - Line Up Your Promos

A task that you want to include on day 2 is to line up what you’re going to promote in the upcoming days. Type up a spreadsheet of products you plan to offer your subscribers. These don’t have to be posted on your blog, but are emailed directly to your subscribers instead.

You’re going to have to do some research to see what new products are about to hit the market. The best way to find this out is to check various places online that offer these products.

Some of them will offer digital items (like plugins or other tools) and others will offer things like courses. Look around for deals for your audience so that way you can offer them a discount when they buy the product.

This might be a simple launch period or a coupon code you’ve secured for them. Get everything organized so that you know what you’re going to be sharing. It can be tempting to talk about all the great deals that are releasing, but you don’t want to that because you can cause overwhelm with your subscribers.

Instead, schedule your promotions throughout the week to highlight the best ones you feel will meet their needs. There are many affiliates who promote anything and everything just to make money, but they lose the trust of their audience.......

Day 1

Blog Procedure - Examine the Prior Content on Your Blog

Start your week by examining the prior posts that you have on your blog. You want to figure out which of your posts had a lot of engagement or clicked with the audience. If you find that you had a lot of interaction, something resonated with them, note that so you can duplicate it going forward.

Sign into your control panel so that you can see how many visitors you had, what pages they visited and whether or not they left a comment. If you do see comments, you want to respond immediately.

This is one reason you want to regularly check your control panel (also known as the blog’s dashboard). It’s important to know what’s going on behind the scenes of your blog posts.

One reason is because good engagement gets your blog a higher ranking in search engines when people are searching for certain keywords and phrases. Another reason is because you want to understand where the traffic is coming from.

If a lot of it is coming from one social media platform over another, then that can tell you where to concentrate your efforts. You also want to look at how you wrote the posts that moved the audience to want to engage.

While you definitely want to pay attention to the posts that did well, you don’t want to ignore the posts that didn’t. You want to check out what could have caused an audience to overlook them or not engage.

Usually, this has something to do with not using strong enough keywords, or the content just didn’t spark an emotional connection to get that reaction. Don’t just leave posts alone that didn’t do well - edit them to make them stronger so that they can pull in traffic, too.....

Wanting to run an online business can be exciting. But it comes with many responsibilities you have to take care of and most people don’t realize just how much is involved in getting the business up and running.

When there’s a lot on your business to-do list every day, it can start to feel like you have too much to handle. This is why you need to have a plan in place in order for your business(es) to be able to run smoothly.

When you have system in place, it can ease the feeling of juggling too much at once and you won’t feel as stressed. By setting up the right plan, you’ll learn when and how to arrange for outside resources or people to share the load so that you can have a break when and if you need to.

With the weekly plan provided in this guide, you’ll be able to implement the steps you need to take every day – Monday through Friday - including what you need to check off on your daily to-do list.

You’ll know when you should be updating your blog, when you should reach out to your mailing list, and when you need to touch base with your audience on social media. You’ll also learn the best times and ways to introduce your products, how to deal with customer service and how to establish and thrive with an affiliate marketing business branch.

If you’re someone who doesn’t like a daily to-do list that’s spread out during the week, you can make the plan work so that you group like-minded jobs all together on the same day.

For example, on one day, you can take care of all of the social media marketing and knock that off the list. Or, you can take care of your newsletter content. How you arrange the tasks is up to you....
