How to Make Money on Teachers Pay Teachers
By now, every teacher on the planet is familiar with the Teachers Pay Teachers online marketplace. With millions of great free resources from amazing TpT sellers, there are just so many original educational resources for teachers to use in their own classrooms.
But you might be thinking, "Ok, but what about teachers who want to earn an income by selling TpT products?"
Well, I am so glad you asked because this entire episode is all about how to make money on Teachers Pay Teachers...even in 2022!!
And don't think this is just for those who want to start selling on TpT. I also have several suggestions for veteran sellers on how to increase your sales. So we're going to spend time talking about...
- Where to begin,
- What type of membership is best for you,
- How much time you need to devote to your TpT store to make it work,
- What teacher resources you should sell,
- How to market your shop,
- Ways to increase your sales and traffic
One thing I want to make clear from the beginning.
Yes, making extra money on TpT is absolutely possible, but many new sellers drop out when they have to put in the hard work of creating resources and don't see an instant turnaround on their investment of time.
I will be honest and tell you that opening Teachers Pay Teachers shop is more involved that just creating a cute product.
But don't let the fear of hard work deter you from your goal because opening up a shop can be an excellent side hustle that provides passive income until it eventually turns into your full-time job.
So if you are willing to apply what I share, I can walk you through how to make money on Teachers Pay Teachers.
