Hey friend! So glad you clicked on the blog today. You are an amazing teacher, and you care so much about your students. You show up for them, you think about them when you leave the classroom, and you spend SO MUCH time planning for them. What if you took the resources you’re making for the classroom and started selling them online to make some extra money?
Do you think that sounds crazy? It took me a while to hype myself up too. I started selling with Teachers Pay Teachers (TPT) in 2022, and since then I’ve made over $100,000 selling online. Let me share with you how you can do this too!
Why I Think You Need to Start Selling Online with TPT
Here are 4 reasons I think you need to start listing your resources for sale on TPT.
- People want to buy from you.
- Teachers need to cut some things from their to-do lists.
- You are already making great resources.
- Every single sale or download matters.
People go to Teachers Pay Teachers to find products to use in their classrooms. They will either find a quick freebie to download, or they’ll spend a few dollars to fill that need. Sometimes they’ll even spend a decent amount of money for an awesome product (I’m looking at you bundles). People want to buy from you. They’re not just wasting time scrolling around on TPT, they are here to find something to help their students.
Teachers are BUSY. You are BUSY. Teachers are always in need of high-quality resources to use in their classrooms because their plates are way too full. You know exactly what that feels like. Don’t you want your resources to help someone else’s classroom? I bet you do!
You are already making great resources for your students. Share those with others! I have a course called Camp Create in which I teach everything you need to know about making and listing your products. My course is super super affordable, and I’d love for you to check out the welcome video! And don’t worry, we’re getting to that free eBook!
Lastly, every single sale or download matters. Don’t hold yourself back because you don’t think you’ll sell much. Selling online is so much more than that, especially in the world of teaching. Even ONE sale is worth celebrating because it means there is a teacher out there using YOUR resource in their classroom. You’ll deserve a standing ovation for that my friend.
