Can You Really Make Your First Sale in 7 Days?
Yes — most creators fail not because they aren’t good, but because they don’t know what buyers want or where they are. This strategy focuses on:
- • high-quality photos
- • fast promotion
- • platform discovery
- • pricing your first items to sell
Follow the daily steps below and you’ll build a profile that converts and attracts real buyers fast.
Day 1: Set Up Your Footly Profile
Footly is the best platform for beginners because:
- • It’s 100% free to join (unlike FeetFinder)
- • You get a TikTok-style discovery feed
- • Buyers are verified — no DMs or scams
- • You keep 80% of your earnings
Choose a username that’s cute, anonymous, and fits your style: “SoftSoles”, “BareBlossom”, “CozyToes”, etc.
Day 2: Take 20 High-Quality Photos
Your first sale comes from quality, not quantity. Take photos in:
- • natural light (next to a window)
- • clean backgrounds
- • soft warm tones
- • angles buyers prefer (soles, arches, toes)
Aim for **5 themes**:
- • bare feet on bedding
- • feet on carpet
- • outdoor grass or beach shot
- • close-up toes
- • arches + heels
Day 3: Upload Your First 10 Photos to Footly
Don’t promote yet — your profile must look real before you send traffic. Upload 10 high-quality images and write simple, searchable captions:
- “Soft soles in natural light”
- “Close-up toe pose with pastel colors”
- “Fresh pedicure, cozy blanket theme”
Day 4: Make Your First Listings (Priced to Sell)
To get your first sale fast, start with:
- • £5–£8 (or $5–$10 USD) per photo set
- • £12–£20 for videos
- • £8–£15 for custom photos
After your first 5–10 buyers, you can raise prices quickly.
Day 5: Start Promotion (TikTok, Reddit, Instagram)
Now that your profile looks legit, drive traffic.
TikTok (Best for Fast Traffic)
- • Soft SFW videos (no explicit content)
- • Cozy aesthetic shots
- • “Pampering feet” mini-vlogs
- • Outfit + feet transitions
Reddit (Fastest Buyers)
- • r/feetpics
- • r/VerifiedFeet
- • r/FeetishMen
- • r/FeetVideos
- • cute foot selfies
- • soft lighting posts
- • reels with aesthetic walking clips
Never sell through DMs. Always redirect to Footly to avoid scams.
Day 6: Engage With Buyers & Promote Listings
Buyers on Footly often browse multiple creators — reply fast and keep your profile active. This is when buyers start messaging or requesting customs.
- • Upload 5–7 more photos
- • Reply to inquiries in under 5 minutes
- • Offer one-time discounts for new customers
Day 7: Close Your First Sale
By now, you should have:
- • 15–20 photos live
- • active social promotions
- • a Footly profile with real engagement
Your first sale often comes from:
- • a TikTok viewer
- • a Reddit user
- • a Footly discovery feed buyer
Once you make one sale, the next 10 come much faster.
