Top Comments of this video!! :3
I honestly believe most people on earth will never make $100,000 a month from selling their own products, no matter how long they put in the work or how hard they try. The world just isn’t set up for everyone to succeed this way. Most people will be exploited and the money, wealth, and resources will go up, not down and around. But, on a more positive note, I did like the end point about being super passionate about what you’re creating and wanting to do your very best to make the best product possible if you’re planning on selling it to your specific audience. I think everyone can apply this to their lives in anything they create that they may wish to sell.

I sell digital downloads of my Christian based art, they serve as an everyday reminder for people to say encouraged. The point I took away from this video is my prices are probably too low. I felt to get sales going I needed to make them dirt cheap (less than three dollars) without realizing that’s probably making them look low value. This is art I creat myself and I work hard on it and I love it. I’m excited to raise my prices and feel confident about that. I need to believe in my product before I expect anyone else to.

Hey Kelsey I really appreciate how you presented this video, doing your due diligence to respect the other creator, but also want to thank you for sharing your insights. Even though I'm trained in one art form in design school, I get really inspired by what you offer and how you are self training it's awesome. Really looking forward to witness your future growth 🎉

Wow I honestly needed to hear this. It really helped shift my mindset. I’m pretty good at anything art related: drawing, painting, making music, cooking, etc. but I struggle to make money with these talents and skills. I opened an Etsy shop in 2020 and it did pretty well at first but now I don’t get many sales and I don’t enjoy drawing the same things as much anymore. I think it’s time for me to reevaluate and stop trying to force the same things to work that worked 3 years ago. It makes me excited to think that I can potentially make something for people that can help change their lives which will in turn change my life 😊

I didn't know Thomas Frank did a thing for creators! Definitely be checking that out. But this video didn't just teach me that, it reminded me that you're 'allowed' to charge people not only for labor and other investments, but also based on what you think it's valued. And that building that value is also building a relationship with your customers and prospective customers. Thanks for the video!

The thing is...I am not a teacher. I love sharing my artwork and every once in a while get a commission for emotes maybe once a year. I have anxiety socializing with new people and have a bad stammer around new people or people I don't see much. So a lot of these tips and strategies that you give don't apply to me. It's very hard to do a art business when you have a full time job outside of the home. I wish there was a video out there on how to do this art thing online and gain an audience while having a full time non art job that doesn't give you much time to work with when at home. I don't want to have my day job cause a burnout with my art.

Tank you so much, Kelsey, for mentoning that it doesnt have to be aducation! I think a lot of people kinda gloss over this by all of ther talk about value. It is always aducation that is brought up as an example. Putting a smile on peoples face is equaly important, but it is never really mentioned. I remember how a German Lets Player who groe super fast told me that he feels bad about taking monney for doing some stupid LP´s and horror content. I was like dude, you always manage to make me laugh. No matter how hard my day was, i watch one of your "stupid" videos and feel good again. thats value. i think it is important that more people get to hear that. So, thank you once again for bringing that up

one big takeaway is he was not an overnight sucess, it took him time to come up with this as well as build his audience.I feel like a piece of that is lost in this era
