How to Make $700 a Week Selling Printable Invites
I’ve built businesses where overhead crushed beginners. Printable invites? That’s the opposite. No inventory. No shipping. No rent. Just design, distribution, and margin.
The global online invitation and stationery market continues to grow as more consumers choose digital downloads. Platforms like Etsy serve 90+ million active buyers, and digital products routinely carry 85–95% gross margins.
You don’t need scale. You need structure.
Here’s how to make $700 a week selling printable invites.

Reverse Engineer the $700 Weekly Goal
Start with math.
Option 1:
35 sales at $20 each = $700
Option 2:
20 sales at $35 each = $700
Option 3:
10 bundle sales at $70 each = $700
If your average order value is $28, you need just 25 sales per week — about 3–4 per day.
That’s achievable with strong listings and SEO.
Focus on High-Demand Niches
Generic doesn’t scale. Niche does.
High-demand categories:
- Birthday party invites
- Baby shower invites
- Wedding shower invites
- Graduation invites
- Kids themed parties
Millions of celebrations happen annually. Even capturing a fraction of 1% of search traffic is enough.
Specialization improves conversion rates.
Bundle for Higher Average Order Value
Don’t sell one invite.
Sell a package:
Basic Invite – $20
Editable printable file
Party Bundle – $45
Invite + thank-you card + welcome sign
Event Suite – $75
Full matching set (invite, RSVP, signage, tags)
If just 10 customers buy the $75 bundle:
10 × $75 = $750
Higher cart value reduces sales volume needed.
Leverage Platform Traffic
Etsy alone processes billions in annual transactions.
If your shop converts at 2%, and 1,500 visitors view your listings weekly:
That’s 30 sales.
Increase conversion to 3% with better mockups and keywords?
45 sales — $1,000+ potential.
Optimization beats hustle.
Protect Your Margins
Your main costs:
- Platform fees (around 6.5% transaction fee)
- Payment processing
- Software subscription ($20–$60/month)
After initial design time, delivery is automated.
If a $35 file sells 100 times:
That’s $3,500 revenue from one design.
Digital scalability creates leverage.
Increase Revenue Without More Work
Add:
- Custom edits (+$15–$25)
- Rush delivery (+$10)
- Name personalization (+$10)
If 40% of buyers add a $15 upgrade:
10 buyers × $15 = $150 extra weekly revenue.
Small add-ons push you past $700 quickly.
Final Word from the Street
Making $700 a week selling printable invites isn’t about graphic design alone.
It’s about:
- Targeting high-demand niches
- Increasing average order value
- Maintaining 85%+ margins
- Leveraging marketplace traffic
Twenty to thirty well-priced sales per week can cross $700 consistently.
Low overhead. High margin. Scalable product.
That’s how digital creativity turns into real income.
