I’m wondering if it’s worth selling templates on the marketplace. We’re an agency and make lots of unique sites that we can just convert to templates, but is it worth the effort? Do people buy? Or is there some other benefit to this that I’m missing?

Long time designer, first time Framer user.

I've been looking through templates on the Framer website but haven't found the right portfolio template yet.

Where else should I go looking for templates?

Also which is better - get a template and use it all or take a template and add plugins and rearrange the layout?

Looking for new names and inspiration.

Hi, I’m Erfan, a UI/UX designer with over a decade of experience, and I recently embarked on a new adventure with Framer. I started learning Framer in April 2024 to build and sell templates, and it’s been an exciting journey!

Here’s how I reached my first $1,000 in sales—and my plan for reaching the next one within this month (November).

Getting Started with Framer

The initial challenge was steep. I had to learn Framer from scratch, build a template that met the platform's standards, and get it approved in the official marketplace. That process took about two months—learning, iterating, and refining until my first template ClayAI was finally ready and approved.

Leveraging Social Media for Early Sales

Before my first template was even approved in Framer’s marketplace, I began sharing my journey on my personal Twitter (X). The response was amazing! I received multiple sales just from the posts I made, which motivated me to push harder and create even more templates. The community’s response showed me the power of marketing, even before a product is officially available.

Launching My Own Template Store: Pentaclay

Fast forward to the last week, I took a big step and launched my own Framer template store, Pentaclay. This gives me full control over my products and allows me to offer unique perks, like an All-Templates Lifetime Access plan. Now, customers can access every template in the collection with a single purchase, which has been a game-changer for driving new sales.

Building a Template Collection and Expanding Categories

I currently have a collection of 7 premium templates on Pentaclay, with 15 more designs ready for launch. My goal is to add two new templates each month, covering a wide range of categories, including SaaS, AI, service-based businesses, directories, portfolios, and agencies. I aim to make Pentaclay a go-to destination for high-quality Framer templates across industries.

Hitting $1,000 in Sales and Planning for the Next Milestone

Just three days ago, I hit my first $1,000 milestone! Now, I’m aiming to reach $2,000 in sales by the end of November. To make this happen, I’ve planned a 360-degree marketing strategy that includes social media, partnerships, content marketing, and more.

I’ll be around for the next 12 hours to answer any questions—let’s chat!

Hey everyone,

A few days ago I shared my 4th approved template from the marketplace.

Today I will share my 5th template and the most advanced one.

Why am I saying most advanced? Because Recroot has a dedicated Job Board.

Recroot, focused on marketing, HR, and Recruitment agencies. However, it has the potential to be used in any kind of trade or small business.

I am offering my template FREE for the next 24 hours.

Use the code "RECROOT20"

Framer marketplace is great but it takes too long to get feedback.

Can anyone provide a list of the marketplace?

Best Framer Templates for 2024 according to Reddit? After working for several projects in my life, not only for SEO but also for building websites and although I'm not a big fan of using just the template if you are running a business, I think it's amazing when it comes to Portfolio templates.

Also, mixing templates and features between templates is a well-known thing for web designers.

Even us, at HSU.es took some ideas and parts from templates but mixing it with CREATIVITY :D

Well, you can imagine I spent too much hours looking at websites design for my startup and portfolios and I found these being the nicest (I have a crush on Cedric as a designer)

Hi,

I just built my first Framer template from scratch, which took me a few days to finish since I had the design already completed from another project.

Hi there,

Geniune question here.

I'm in love with tons of Framer Templates. And I find that Webflow Templates are tasteless. What triggers me is that they are not "2024", they lack great attention spent on details, and overall they are not homogenous.

I don't want to learn how to use Framer, I love Webflow as it is, but I'd love to see slick templates.

Is there any reason they all lack of finition?

I learned about Framer Low Code Website Builder a couple of months ago. I found on Twitter everyone was making website templates using Framer.

So I jumped into that as I am a Web Designer myself, it will be easier for me to earn some extra cash.

I made 7 premium templates so far and launched my own store http://pentaclay.com

I earned over $1000 within 8 months by selling website templates. But I am skeptical now, will that be scalable?

Do you think people will buy website templates regularly? Website builders are becoming easier day by day and AI is there too.

I know there might be some passive cash I can earn, but can I make a business out of it where I can go full-time? Will that be risky?
