How to use Canva to design + sell CANVA TEMPLATES (and make major PASSIVE INCOME!! 💰)

About this video

In the second video of her Canva template series, Kate shows how to package and deliver Canva templates and build listing images. She creates a separate letter-size PDF in Canva, branded with a background color and logo, listing each template size with a ‘click here’ line. She generates a template link for each Canva file via Share and template link, then embeds one link per size in the PDF: Instagram post square at 1080 by 1080 pixels, portrait/vertical post at 1080 by 1350 pixels, and story at 1080 by 1920 pixels. She adds a note that elements are editable and downloads it as PDF Standard, explaining the buyer clicks a link and uses Use template to get their own copy without altering the original. For Etsy, she builds a 2700 by 2025 pixel thumbnail from uploaded designs with drop shadows, a headline, a count badge and an ’edit in Canva’ badge, plus what’s-included and what-you-can-edit images and a staggered story-size showcase.

Key takeaways

  • Deliver templates through a single letter-size PDF that embeds the Canva links, rather than sending the template files directly
  • Always share the generated template link from Share, so the buyer opens a fresh copy and your original template is not altered
  • Keep each size in its own template link: 1080 by 1080 pixels square, 1080 by 1350 pixels portrait, and 1080 by 1920 pixels story
  • Build the main Etsy thumbnail at 2700 by 2025 pixels showing many designs, the total design count, the product name, and that it is editable in Canva
  • Add supporting listing images for what’s included with sizes, what you can edit (text, fonts, colors, images), and a showcase of the other sizes in the bundle
