Episode 40: Summer Playlist Series: TpT Tips

Week 2 of the summer series has us turning our attention to TpT

We've had a little bit of time to relax and recover from the end of the school year sprint

Last week, we featured episodes about teacher wellness and getting routines down to help you stay happy and healthy, a great foundation for getting in a routine to work from home— which can be easier said than done

If you aren’t working during the summer, your mind might be thinking about how to make a little extra cash

Whether you have yet to open your TpT store or you have one that might as well not be open because it has gained such little traction, begin with Yari’s advice in episode 19.  If you need some mindset work to get you started so you stop making excuses or some tactical tips for first steps in starting an account and picking your freebie, Yari has you covered.  

This is a perfect episode to pair with a crash course in branding from Amanda Thompson, episode 37 of the podcast. Amanda explains how branding is more than just colors and fonts— though she does provide some killer tips for making sure that you pick a name that will actually work for you long term. She will also help you get over that perfectionism that has been keeping you sidelined for too long
