How to Balance Selling Printables & Your Full-Time Job

How to Balance Selling Printables & Your Full Time Job

Are you thinking about starting a printables business!? If so, you are in the RIGHT place, my friend! I switched my party decorations to printables and it was the best decision I ever made. However, you might be wondering How to Balance Selling Printables & Your Full-Time Job. So let’s talk about it!

How to Balance Selling Printables & Your Full Time Job

Can I Have a Full-Time Job and Sell Printables?

Forget to be or not to be! The REAL question is, can you sell printables and keep your full-time job? The answer is a HECK YES! I started my printables business with a full-time marketing and communications position at a large corporation and no one was the wiser.

It honestly was life-saving because, as you might know, your 9-5 job is sometimes lacking in keeping you fulfilled. For example, you might be looking for more ways to be creative in your life. Or maybe you’re looking for something that gives you purpose. Whatever it is you’re looking for outside of your 9-5, you can find it by selling printables on the side!

How to Balance Selling Printables & Your Full-Time Job

In order to be successful in selling printables while you have a full-time job, there are a few things to keep in mind.

One of the things you have to learn is to have good time management. After all, that’s true if you’re balancing two of anything! If you’re a mom, you’re probably already extremely good at doing this and you don’t even know it!

Another thing to develop is a system to keep things organized and in place in your printables business. We go over a lot of these processes inside my signature program, The Abundant Girl’s Guide to Passive Income With Printables on Etsy. But the main reason you want to create systems and organizations is to avoid burnout. After all, the reason we have a printables business in the first place is to create an outlet to express our creativity and NOT feel stressed. We don’t want it to feel like a chore, or it defeats the purpose!

More Keys to Success In Having a Printables Side Hustle

Here are a few more tips for creating a successful printables side hustle:

Look at Your 9-5 as an Asset

Sure, we all want to quit our day jobs to live our daydreams, but sometimes it takes time. It’s good to look at your job as an asset that helps you continue to do what you love on the side. If you didn’t have your 9-5 you couldn’t support yourself and spend your free time creating a printables empire. So be grateful it’s there!

Find A Mentor

As I started my business, I learned from some amazing entrepreneurs online that have kept me motivated and inspired to keep going. If I didn’t have them, I KNOW I wouldn’t have gotten as far as I have.

Know When to Rest

As a self-proclaimed DO-er, I know that my natural nature is to GO GO GO. DO DO DO! But something I’ve realized along the way with my printables journey is that I need to rest. I like to make sure that when I am working, I’m intentionally working. I’m not scrolling social media. I’m making and listing my printables. Then when it’s time to rest, you don’t feel guilty. You know you’ve done all you can for that day.

Balancing Selling Printables & Your Full-Time Job

Balancing your time in selling printables & your full-time jobs takes commitment and discipline. The most important thing is setting up systems and boundaries that keep you moving in a clear direction. After all, both are opportunities and abundance you have in your life.

In this clip, I’m sharing how I built a business with a full-time job, a toddler, and no extra hours in the day  and how you can too using my 4-step strategy (backed by one of my favorite books, The Compound Effect).

🎥 This video wasn’t “on brand”… but it 🎥 This video wasn’t “on brand”… but it was exactly what my audience needed.

When I made this printer review, I was knee-deep in handmade party decorations 🎉not printables, not digital products, just cutting, gluing, and shipping all day long.

But I kept getting questions like: “What printer do you use for heavy cardstock?”

So I answered. And that one answer turned into a viral video that’s now helped thousands of crafters, small business owners, and DIYers.

My point?! If your people are asking for something…even if it feels “off topic”, then listen to them. It might be the exact thing that builds trust, brings in traffic, or opens the door to your next chapter.

If you’re printing thick paper for your business (or just love a good craft sesh), I hope this helps you too!
