What if you could build a real passive income stream selling products you never design, print, or ship yourself — using nothing but a text prompt? That question probably sounds too good to be true, but it's exactly what Joshua Mayo broke down in one of his most practical tutorials to date. And this checklist captures every single step.
Here's the problem most people run into when they try to sell on Etsy: they either don't have design skills, don't have money for expensive tools, or don't know where to start. So they never start at all. Meanwhile, single phone case listings on Etsy are quietly generating $8,000, $34,000, and more in revenue — selling simple AI-generated designs that almost anyone could create in under an hour. The gap between you and those sellers isn't talent. It's a clear, repeatable process.
Imagine having a complete Etsy shop up and running today. Your designs were created with a single ChatGPT text prompt. Your product mockup photos look like they were shot by a professional photographer. Your listing titles, descriptions, and tags are already SEO-optimized. And every time an order comes in, Printify handles the printing and shipping automatically. You're not managing inventory, you're not touching a printer, and you're not hiring a designer. You're just collecting the margin.
Joshua Mayo has tested this system himself — the phone case sitting on his iPhone right now was designed entirely with AI and printed and shipped without him lifting a finger. He walks through the exact prompt formula he uses, the specific ChatGPT workflow for creating professional mockup photos for free, the Printify setup that automates fulfillment, and the Etsy SEO strategy that gives new listings the best chance of getting found fast.
This checklist turns that entire tutorial into a clean, actionable reference you can follow step by step — from writing your first design prompt all the way through publishing an optimized Etsy listing that's built to get found. Every tool, every tip, every warning from the video is captured here so you don't have to rewatch anything or take notes. Just open it up, follow the steps, and build the shop.
Every checklist item comes with actionable notes to guide you — things like "Don't forget to do this before you start," "Avoid this common mistake," or "Set a reminder for 30 days out." Nothing vague, just clear next steps.
