How are my profits calculated for digital products?
Your profit margin depends on the product’s selling price. Teespring’s processing fee is 10% of the selling price, plus a $0.40 charge. For example, if you sell a Lightroom Preset at $10, you’d earn a profit of $8.60 per sale once the $1.40 fee is applied. Whenever you create the digital product, you’re earning pure profit since there are no inventory costs involved!
What should be the retail sale price (RSP) of my digital product?
The selling price of your digital product really depends on what you are selling. Wallpapers range between $2.99 and $9.99 and coloring pages or books between $5.99 and $12.99. See examples of digital products that have been already launched and decide on pricing you feel comfortable with and make sense for your product. Make sure to take into consideration time spent creating it and consider what kind of value it offers to your community.
