In this video, I’m sharing my honest “getting started” thoughts on opening a Teachers Pay Teachers store. I’ll be real with you—starting a TPT store can feel intimidating at first, especially when you’re looking at all the options and wondering what to create, how to list it, and whether anyone will actually buy. But I’m walking you through my mindset as I begin, why I decided to do it now, and how I’m approaching it step-by-step instead of trying to be perfect from day one. My biggest takeaway is that consistency is what I’m aiming for, because I want TPT to grow into another stream of passive income alongside my online teaching work. I also share where you can find my store so you can follow along with my journey, and I link the other teaching-from-home platforms I talk about on my channel (like Outschool, AllSchool, and Cambly) if you’re building multiple income streams. If you’re an online teacher looking for a realistic way to start selling your resources, this is the encouragement and “let’s do it anyway” pep talk I wish I had earlier.
