Now, for today’s blog post I’ve something really special for YOU.

Because I’m going to tell you about one of the best tools that I personally use in my workflow.

Not only this, I’ll also be sharing 5 Ways which you can try right now to make your first $$$.

Sounds interesting?

Let’s begin the fun!

The tool which I’m talking about is Placeit.

If you’re hearing about this website for the first time, let me give you a brief introduction:

Placeit, as the name suggests, is a mockup library.

In fact, it’s the biggest mockup library available online (as of now!)

While a lot of people use it primarily to produce mockups for their designs, its functionality isn’t limited to that only.

It has a lot of features that we can use to make money.

Here’s how you can use them and turn this website into $$$⬇️

1. Creating Print on Demand Designs

Print on demand (POD) is the fastest growing business model in today’s time!

In this model, you create designs, list them on a POD platform, and when a customer orders, the platform handles all the printing and shipping.

You, as the designer, earn a commission in return.

Don’t forget to check this blog where I’ve shared everything in detail on ‘How to Start a Print on Demand Business’ from Scratch.

So, the first thing that you need to do to start this whole Print on Demand business is — designing.

And here comes the role of Placeit.

You can use the Placeit inbuilt designer to create designs which you can further upload on the POD platforms to earn commission.

To do that, go to the ‘Design’ option drop-down arrow. You’ll see a bunch of options there.

Let’s say you want to create a ‘T-Shirt Designs’.

Click on that option. You’ll see some templates related to your search.

If you like any template, click on that and you’ll be redirected to the editor.

You can change the fonts, images, colors, etc. using this editor and modify the design to make it your own.

Note : Make sure you download your design with a transparent background before uploading it on the POD platform.

Here’s how to do this:

Click on the ‘Background Color’ option on the right-hand side.

You’ll see a color palette.

Navigate the white checkered pattern type icon on the bottom left-corner.

Click on that and you’ll notice the background from your design being removed.

Then, hit the ‘Download’ option on the top-right side and you’re good to go!

2. Become a Freelance Mockup Designer

As I mentioned before, Print on Demand is growing rapidly, and so is the demand for people who can market the products of these creators who own such stores.

Not all of the people who own these stores are that much tech-savvy or good at creating mockups.

And, you can use this opportunity to help them by using Placeit.

Join a freelancing platform and start offering your services as a mockup designer.

3. Create & Sell Flyers

A flyer is a type of promotional material, typically a single-page document, designed to grab attention and convey information quickly.

You can create flyers using Placeit.

There are two options to start this side hustle: freelancing or becoming a stock photo contributor.

4. Starting a Logo Designing Business

Logos are the face of a brand, the visual identity that sets it apart.

Whether you’re opening a new business or a new Instagram theme page, this one simple thing really helps you stand out from the crowd.

It wouldn't be wrong if I say, your target customer gets the first hand impression of your brand via your logo.

Don’t you agree?

To create logos using Placeit, go to the top menu and select the ‘Logos’ option.

Placeit allows you to filter logo options by industry or style.

Choose your category, for example ‘Wedding Logos’.

Now, use the inbuilt logo maker.

Here’s how it works!

Type in your company name, choose the style and graphics.

You’ll notice that all the customization automatically applies to the available templates.

If you like any of the templates, click on that.

Next, you’ll be asked to choose the fonts that go with the logo.

Choose which font combinations you like.

You can also see a live preview of the logo on the available mockups which is pretty awesome😊.

Select a template and move to the next step i.e. Colors.

Explore the color options and click on ‘Finish’.

You’ll be redirected to the editor to make further changes.

So, that’s the simple way of creating logos using Placeit.

Now, the question is where to sell these logos or how to use this skill to earn money.

5. Becoming an Affiliate

Last, but not the least, become an affiliate with Placeit.

To do that go to Placeit, scroll to the bottom, you’ll see an ‘Affiliate’ option. Click on that.

You’ll see a web page like this.

Click on the first arrow. Then click on the highlighted text.

Next, you’ll be asked to submit an application via Impact (another affiliate marketplace.)

Read this to know how to become a partner with Impact.

Once you’re signed in to your Impact account, go to the ‘Brands’ drop-down arrow and choose ‘Find Brands’.

Type the name of the Brand in the search box which you want to find and hit enter.

You’ll see the brand name appear.

Since I’m already affiliated with Placeit, I can’t reapply.

However, once you click on this link, you’ll find the application option.

After acceptance, you’ll receive your unique affiliate link.

Simply click on the ‘Create Link’ option highlighted in blue, and you’re all set to start promoting.

And the best part?

Since this platform is already equipped with mind-blowing features and focuses too much on user experience, you can rest assured, there won’t be any concerns regarding refunds.

If in any case that happens, the Placeit team will handle it for YOU🙌

So, no stress at all!
