Episode Summary
From selling your digital resources on your own website to podcasting to affiliate marketing and more, there are so many ways to diversify your teacher business income! But have you ever considered selling physical products? My guest today, Christina Spencer, is here to share how she does just that.
Christina and I first met while working on our Master’s of Education for Early Childhood at The Ohio State University. Since then, Christina has gone on to teach in Abu Dhabi, launch her business selling physical products, and travel around the world. While teaching, Christina saw a huge lack of representation in educational products, so she created them herself!
In this episode, Christina dives into the mission behind her company, ABSee Me, and how it’s making a big impact on students, teachers, and parents. She also explains how she got started with selling physical products and the pros and cons of taking this route. You’ll even hear the details that come with selling physical goods such as where she houses the products and how they get to her customers.
Topics Discussed:
- How Christina travels the world while running her business
- The mission behind ABSee Me and what the catalyst was for starting
- What kind of response Christina has received since creating and selling physical products
- Types of products that Christina sells, where she sells them, and how she markets them
- Pros and cons of selling physical products
