Ever wish you could get a behind-the-scenes look inside your buyer’s mind? Well, if you’re an SVG designer, don’t miss this episode with Heidi Harrison. Heidi is a cutting industry pro who cuts vinyl decals and creates t-shirts for her customers. But this week, she’s sharing what she looks for when buying SVG cut files. Heidi’s unique position as seller and buyer means you get actionable insider advice. Tune in and discover how to give your design customers what they need and make even more sales.

My interview today is with Bethany Archer, owner of Board and Batten Design Co. Bethany is an SVG designer who creates vintage-style artwork. Her story isn’t the entrepreneurial journey we usually hear. Bethany rose above major challenges to replace her income and provide for her family. Now she works less than she ever has and lives a life of freedom on her remote homestead in Washington State. (All through six-figure passive income from SVG sales!) Tune in to hear how true grit can lead to big rewards.

My guest today is Tess MacKay. She recently swapped her 9 to 5 for a business she can do from home (on her terms). Tess only works when she wants to work. She shares her experience learning how to design SVG’s in my Designer’s Course to SVG Files. And you’ll discover how she made 1000 sales on Etsy in FOUR  months with only 35 products. Listen in to hear all the juicy insider tips that led to her mind-blowing success story.

I love to geek out about SVG’s. I’m sure you’ve picked up on that unless you’re new here. In that case, welcome! Seriously, SVG’s helped me build a wildly successful Etsy shop.

Listen in to hear about the explosive growth in the cutting industry and what it means for designers. Plus, I share part of my journey to six-figure passive income success.

In this episode, I give you my top ten picks for passive income products you can in Illustrator and Photoshop that will return the most profit in 2021.
