I have been selling for almost a year and a half and have learned much of this through trial and error and collaboration with other TpT sellers. This file will save you tons of time and put you way ahead on the learning curve. Currently, I am in the top 150 all-time sellers of TpT, and hope with this product I can help you along your TpT journey!
