you may not realize it but you can actually make a fulltime income with this tool named canva even if you're a total beginner and have no experience and in this video I'm going to show you in detail how to do it in fact here's a video of me driving my teenage daughter home after she made her first money with this and here's a screenshot of just one of the payments that she received doing the thing that I'm going to show you in this video my teenage kids use this software to make money and I really
believe you can too even if you have no experience with this kind of thing now essentially what canva is is it's a design software that lets someone with literally zero design experience create amazing Graphics amazing logos with just a few clicks of the mouse and like I said before this can become your full-time income if you try it and take a liking to it now there's lots of different ways to make money with this software but one of the easiest ones and the one that I'm going to focus on in this video is actually selling
Graphic Design Services is on websites like upwork and Fiverr and again you don't need to be a graphic designer to do this you're going to see in just a second why now the first thing that you do I'm going to take you to my screen right now because the first thing that you have to do is actually sign up for one of these sites and in this case I'm going to show Fiverr and then you just sign up and you create what they call a gig which is basically like your services posted out there for
businesses to see what you offer and you're going to be offering Graphic Design Services like I'm showing right here you can even use the exact text that I'm using on my screen right here to set up your own gig now more specifically what this specific thing focuses on is logo design and just as a side note you actually can sell on Fiverr but what's awesome with this is this is going to let you come in touch with a lot of businesses that need Graphic Design Services so even if you sell an initial job on Fiverr
after that you can actually make a lot more money getting repeat clients and after that you're not even using the Fiverr platform anymore you just built a relationship of a bunch of clients that are paying you on a regular basis for graphic design services and you're doing the whole thing in canva that's exactly what my daughter did but either way Fiverr and upwork are one of the best ways to reach clients for this now I've created a number of YouTube videos on both Fiverr and upwork so I'm not going to go in a lot more
detail in setting them up you can just go to my YouTube channel and do a search for Fiverr or do a search for upwork and you'll find I have multiple videos on this where is into a lot more detail but here I really want to focus on how to use canva to offer these graphic design Services the first thing that you're going to need to do whether you're on upwork or on Fiverr or even some other site is you need to create a portfolio of some of your graphic designs for people to see and remember
you don't have to be a graphic designer you're going to see how easy it is in just a second but you have to create a little portfolio that shows all what you can do though you haven't actually done any client work yet we're just going to create some graphics so that that any business that goes and sees can kind of see what you're able to do so let's open up canva and if you don't have the app you just go and type in canva.com and sign up and you can sign up just like I'm showing
right here on my screen now once you're signed up you're going to be greeted with this homepage that you see right here and when you're here you're going to want to go to the search bar and type in the word logo and then click on Logo in the dropdown and then just like I'm here you're going to be taken to a new screen which is full of thousands of amazing and professional templates ready made for you and the nice thing about these templates is as long as you're using canva you can edit and remake these
into anything that you want I use this all the time for real quick graphic designs and they look amazing it makes me look like an amazing graphic designer even though I didn't even study graphic design at all but let's say for your portfolio just because we have to make up some graphics to sort of fill up your portfolio to make it look like you really know what you're doing right let's say for example you have a client who wants to start a local dut store and really needs a good logo it's super simple you could
do one of two things you can just search for donut literally in the search bar or you can just scroll down the logos until you find one that you want to use and modify but in this case let's just search for the word donut once these search results come up we're just going to scroll through until we find a donut logo that we like but as you can see while scrolling through there are really a ton of good professional options here that we could choose from but now that we found one that we want we
can click on it then the popup comes up and let's click customize template and once we do this we're going to be Tak to this screen right here which is the place where we can actually do the editing or the design part so once we're here you can see we have a lot of options to edit this logo we can click on any attribute and change it and in this case if you just click on the background you can see that you can come up here to the top and just simply click on a color
that you want to change and change the color to whatever color you want um so in this case let's keep that yellow because it looks nice now the same literally applies for every attribute of the logo like I'm showing here for example we could change these icons on the inside of the logo or we can change the text and that's exactly what we're going to do so let's say this is stut shop called guts Donuts okay I'm just making this up but um in this case what we're going to do is we're going to double
click the text and we're just going to type in guts donuts and then click off and you can see that it has literally applied automatically to the logo and it was easy as that and now we have a professional logo made that you can literally use as part of your canva membership this specific one we're just doing right to fill out our portfolio so that any perspective client can see kind of the different work that we are able to do but let's say this was for client and we wanted to export it what you can
do is you can download a few different options for the client so you can do jpeg you can do a PDF you can do a PNG format really PNG is the most standard and then we're going to do a transparent background and then we're going to click download So as you can see that literally took less than five minutes to do and so what I would recommend you doing then is do this maybe 10 or 20 times so that you have 10 or 20 logos that are just for they're not for real companies they're just
for like madeup companies that you're making up this just to give anybody who's trying to hire you an example of your work is really what it is but I would do maybe 10 or 20 examples just so you can show them off on Fiverr or on upwork for anyone that's interested in hiring you and really once you do just to start off you could charge between 20 and $100 for just one of these logos and so if you do the math this literally takes five 5 to 10 minutes to create and then you can charge
between 20 and $100 for that that is a pretty significant hourly rate now the crazy thing about canva is you don't even have to stop at just logos you remember that search bar that I showed where we searched for logo you can search for Facebook header you can search for Instagram header you can search for website graphic you can search for all kinds of things and it will automatically bring up pre-created templates all you have to go in and do is edit them really quick and then publish them for your clients so you can create
all kinds of different Graphics you could create menus for restaurants you can create YouTube thumbnails in fact a lot of the thumbnails on my channel right here that you're watching were actually created with canva and a lot of them were actually created by my son through canva there's really a ton that you can do with this software and like I said the best place to get started selling your services is on Fiverr or on upwork and again search my channel to see the details of how to really make that work through Fiverr and upwork and
then come back here review our canva training and you're Off to the Races now I will say that it is an ongoing work so this is not residual income that we're talking about you do have to keep getting clients you have to keep hustling for clients you have to keep sitting down at your computer and actually doing the work of creating these graphics on canva now if you're interested in a more autopilot business model one that runs whether you're working or not I really encourage you to click on the link in the description of this
video we have a free class I will say that this business that I teach you in the free class does take some work initially to set it up because you have to set up a money-making system but after you set up the whole system then it runs on autopilot whether you are working or not in fact my same daughter that I showed you at the beginning of this video she actually quit doing all the client work with graphics and with canva and everything and she switched over to just doing the autopilot business because it's a
lot less work on an ongoing basis after you get it set up so again we have a free class on how to do that click on the link in the description of this video and you can register for the free class today
