Oh..They made some money on Etsy with AI
You will also be able to do the same thing
Today I will show you how to use AI to create designs that are highly competitive.
If using AI for writing, it may result in content that doesn’t seem natural.
Please see the image below.
The design seems to have been created using Photoshop by designers.
Let’s take a quick look at the metrics of this listing.
According to statistics, the design has sold 430 orders in the past 4 months.
With a very high conversion rate of 7%, this proves that customers really like this design.
They may like it for the following reasons:
- The content of the text on the design
- The character in the design
- The context of the design
- The colors of the design
- The layout of the design
Anyway, those are my predictions.
But clearly, they are the foundations for me to further develop more advanced designs.
Returning to the listing above, that seller generated at least 1.4k EUR in revenue.
If the design cost is around $20 and Etsy’s fee is 8.5% for the total revenue, then the listing above earned somewhere about 1278.8 EUR (this is my estimated figure).
On average, I only achieve a conversion rate of 1–3%.
This is the average conversion rate on Etsy
If a listing has a conversion rate higher than this number, it means the market demands are higher.
It can also fall into the following factors:
- Infringing products
- High demand products
- Holiday-related products
- Trending products

My Plan
Once I find a niche market that customers like, I will proceed to redesign it to make it fresher.
In this article, I want to discuss using AI.
I will ask myself.
How can AI create designs that are similar while still ensuring the elements I mentioned near the beginning of the article?
The answer is that I have to create a Prompt that meets those criteria.
Here is the prompt I have created:
Create 4 unique illustrations featuring a raccoon in a bathtub with bubbles, in a vintage graphic design style. Each illustration should have a different humorous or sarcastic text overlay. The raccoon should look playful and the overall design should be colorful and engaging. Example text: ‘Splish Splash, your opinion is trash
If you want to learn about how to use and create similar Prompt sentences, feel free to check out my personal profile or follow me. I will share similar articles.
The next step, I use Midjourney to execute.
I started inputting the Prompt into MidJourney and received the results as shown in the image below:
Thus, I have created four different versions that can compete with the original product I found.
Now, I just need to add the text ‘Splish Splash, your opinion is trash’ to the design, and I can proceed to sell.
I can use Photoshop to accomplish this.
Advantages and Disadvantages
The advantage of this method is that my designs are unique; they do not exist anywhere else in the world.
I am completely confident that I will not face any legal issues or lawsuits in the future (the possibility is very low).
The disadvantage of this method is that I need to resize the design because the images created by Midjourney are low-resolution and the designs are not sufficient to print on physical products.
I must take the initiative to add suitable text and upscale appropriately in order to sell to customers.
Conclusion
I hope this sharing will give you additional perspectives on using AI for business applications.
I also wrote a free book for Writers on Medium, and I poured my heart into writing it.
