Why it can work

- Estimated $5.93 profit per print hour
- Seasonal demand: Christmas, Easter, Halloween and Valentine's Day
Why it might fail
- Character and brand shapes are the main risk, so stick to generic or original themes
Be aware before you sell
A digital bundle of 1500+ cutter files was seen on Etsy, so confirm that any pack actually allows selling physical prints. Character and brand shapes are the main risk, so stick to generic or original themes. Etsy asks for your own original design, so a licensed file may not qualify.
