Digital Artists & Creators: Printables, Templates, and Whop Stores with GoHighLevel
Why artists and creators need automation
Many artists and creative entrepreneurs face the same hurdles:
- Selling time-bound commissions that don’t scale.
- Relying on platforms (Etsy, Instagram) where algorithms shift overnight.
- Spending more time on client chasing than on actual creative work.
Digital assets like printables, templates, brushes, mockups, and courses are infinitely scalable. Add GoHighLevel and you move from “one sale at a time” to a systemized digital storefront.

Automation playbook example
A digital illustrator sets up:
- Lead magnet – Free “7 Procreate brushes” delivered via GHL workflow.
- Main product – $37 template pack, auto-delivered via GHL + Stripe.
- Recurring offer – $19/month “Brush Club” with new packs each month, sold via Whop.
- Upsell – $497 “Digital Artist Masterclass” hosted inside GHL membership area.
Within 4 months, the illustrator goes from $500 in random Etsy sales to $4,000 MRR.

FAQs
What digital products sell best for artists?
Printables, Canva/Photoshop templates, Procreate brushes, and recurring “asset packs” have the highest demand.
Do I need to leave Etsy or Gumroad?
No. Keep them for visibility, but own your list and automation in GoHighLevel so you aren’t hostage to their rules.
Can I mix Whop and GoHighLevel?
Yes. Use Whop for transactions and memberships, but always funnel traffic through GHL so you control upsells and remarketing.
How do I start without an audience?
Run lead ads offering freebies, build a 500–1,000 person list, then launch micro-products under $50 to validate demand.
