If you've ever wondered whether you can actually make money selling designs on Canva — and how to do it without running into licensing trouble — this episode walks through the whole process. We cover what separates a real, sellable template from a one-off design, the Canva licensing rules most sellers get wrong (including the Pro Content and template-link requirement), how to pick a niche that's actually in demand, and where to sell once your templates are ready — from Etsy and Creative Market to building your own store.
