Hey teacher friend! Could you use some extra cash? Do you want to help out other teachers and students worldwide?

If you've said yes, then you need to start selling your teaching resources on Teachers Pay Teachers!

Every time I talk about becoming a seller on Teachers Pay Teachers with other sellers, someone always mentions that they wish they started selling sooner. So this is your sign to open your own Teachers Pay Teachers store! Start hearing those "cha-chings"!

Here are 3 reasons why you should start selling your teaching resources on Teachers Pay Teachers:

1. You can make extra income for you and your family
2. You already have resources ready to sell
3. Sharing your resources will help teachers and students worldwide

Make Extra Income for You and Your Family

Selling your teaching resources on Teachers Pay Teachers can open up a whole new stream of income for you and your family. When I start selling my teaching resources, I had no idea what the potential could be. I really thought I would only make a few dollars here and there.

Boy was I wrong!

Over time, I found uploading more resources to my store lead to more teachers purchasing my resources. What was even better was that the buyers who purchased a single resource were later coming back and purchasing other resources. Awesome!

I thought this was just going to pay for a night out with my fiance or new dress I wanted. This has given my family financial freedom. After about 4-6 months of selling my teaching resources, I was making a steady 4-figures a month. I could pay my mortgage each month from JUST the money I was making from TPT... INSANE!

This can be you too!

You Already Have Resources to Sell

No one knows your students better than you. You probably create resources for your classes all the time knowing exactly what your students needs are. I promise you that you definitely have resources that are ready to be uploaded to Teachers Pay Teachers. It is not very difficult to create resources to sell... But why create resource when you already a whole library of teaching resources? All you need to do is add on a few finishing touches and it's ready to upload.

So don't feel like you need to spend hours creating resources just to sell on Teachers Pay Teachers. Just use what you already have!

Sharing Your Resources Will Help Teachers & Students Worldwide

One of my favorite parts about selling my teaching resources is that I can help other teachers and students. We as teachers have all been there. We're in a pinch for a lesson plan or fun activity. You head over to Teachers Pay Teachers to find a resource and quickly print and copy for your classes. Now, teachers who are in that pinch can find YOUR resources and use them with their students.

I've been there. Think about this... you could be helping teachers and students all across the United States and all around the world. I've sold my teaching resources in Canada, Ukraine, Brazil, and Kenya. So cool! Hearing from those teachers how much they loved my resource and how their students benefit from it makes my day every time I read their reviews. This is exactly why I started selling my teaching resources on Teachers Pay Teachers.
