Affinity Publisher vs. Affinity Designer – For Digital Planner Design
If you’re thinking about starting a business selling digital products, it’s important to have the right program for your designs.
Affinity Publisher and Affinity Designer are two programs that have a variety of similar benefits such as the same one-time payments, the ability to create printable inserts, stickers, and illustrations as well as cropping and exporting.
However, they differ in that only Publisher has hyperlink functionality, and the only Designer allows you to create seamless patterns.

Etsy Vs Squarespace- Where should you sell Digital Planning templates and products!
Etsy and Squarespace are two great platforms for selling digital products. Here are how they differ:
Design
Etsy is more uniform and doesn’t allow for customization. You can only sell physical and digital products.
Squarespace has beautiful templates and is highly customizable. You can sell memberships, courses, services, physical and digital products.
Traffic
Etsy has a big community that you get access to.
Squarespace requires you to drive your own traffic.
Scale
It’s hard to scale with Etsy or create customer loyalty.
It’s much easier to capture and nurture leads on Squarespace by building community, creating blogs, and more.
