Let’s get started!
Creating your first product
Once you’ve created your account, it’s time to start creating your first product. There are three ways to sell on Fourthwall:
- Design something new
- Sell something you have
- Create a digital product
For your first product, we recommend selecting “Design Something New” and choosing an item to customize from our catalog. We have hundreds of retail-quality items to choose from! If you're not sure where to start, consider checking out our best-sellers.
Once you've selected your product, it's time for designs! If you need help drawing up designs, we have two suggestions:
- If you have experience, create a design in Canva, Photoshop, Figma, etc.
- Check your community for talented designers
- Browse our community of trusted designers
When your design is ready, upload it to the designer. We recommend uploading an image with at least 200 DPI. You can view more details regarding artwork guidelines in our Help Center.
After your design is uploaded, you can choose which available product color variants you’d like to include in your listing. Before finalizing your product, be sure to preview what it’ll look like in real life by using our high-quality mockups.
Next, add a title and description for your product and set your selling price. We’ll tell you how much you make on each sale, so you can determine the right price for you. On the next page, you’ll be able to edit any additional details, add or edit your product images, and set your product live on your store.
Designing your site
After you’ve created your first product, get ready to design your site and make it yours! This is where you'll showcase your products and make them available for purchase. It’s also your opportunity to incorporate your branding.
- Choose a theme that resonates with your personality and style
- Edit your theme to include your logo and other branding elements (colors and fonts, etc.)
- Customize your layout by adding sections like your social media feeds, a donations page, featured collections, a links list, custom HTML, etc.
