Even as an amateur, I finally reached my sales goal!! Is consistency and the power of words important? LINE emojis♡
As an ordinary housewife, I've been making
LINE stickers and emojis for 8 years, just as a hobby I'm not very good at.
Finally!
I reached my goal for this year of [100,000 yen per month]!!
I never thought a day like this would come!
Even though I'm not good at it, I just really enjoyed making LINE stickers & emojis, so for these 8 years, even when they didn't sell, and even when they didn't sell, I kept making them.
I just kept making them no matter what.
Then one day
they suddenly started selling ↓
Currently, I have 627 LINE stickers and emojis in total (as of December 2025).
There were some emojis that triggered the sales, and to ride that wave, I continued to make a lot more!
I made many different kinds so that people would choose them.
And then!
They became part of the premium service, which led to an increase in sales!!
I had no idea premium was this amazing *_*!
I'm truly grateful to everyone who used them!!
(In my case, 90% of my sales come from emojis, so I think people used my emojis a lot for premium too)
So, stickers and emojis that sell well are also evaluated and used in the same way in premium ☆゜
Why was I able to keep making them even when they didn't sell...
I just really enjoyed making them (*^_^*)
I was happy to see them take shape.
Even before I started making LINE stickers, I had always been looking at stickers and emojis by talented creators, so that was a different world to me, and it was normal for my own not to sell.
That's why I was so happy when even one sold, and I think that's how I was able to keep making them (*^_^*)
I've been supported by the people who bought them all this time ☆゜
What I'm looking forward to next is
●Premium stickers created with generative AI
Even someone like me tried making LINE stickers with generative AI^_^!
I'm using the free version of Gemini.
This is super easy for me to use!
I'm looking forward to sticker premium, but stickers are sold individually and don't sell very well.
If so, will they sell in premium?
This is different from what I said earlier, but
I'm hoping that there are people who think, "I wouldn't buy them (individually), but since they're (in premium), I'll try using them."
Am I being too optimistic?
I hope I can report more on this here later.
My goal is
●to create lots of emojis that lead to increased sales
Also, I thought about it again,
the power of words is real, indeed.
I talk about my goals and dreams for the year with my best friend from student days every New Year.
My goal this year was "I want to earn enough to no longer be a dependent of my husband!" (Including part-time work, side jobs, and LINE sticker sales.)
And, I wrote "Aiming for! 100,000 yen in sales per month this year" in this note last time.
That's going well (*^_^*)
This is completely different from LINE stickers, but one more thing...
When I was a child, I had restricted exercise due to illness.
So I watched Dragon Ball on TV and
thought, "I want to be Chi-Chi too."
No, I was an embarrassing elementary school student who said "I am Chi-Chi"^_^;
Because I wanted to move my body and run to my heart's content like Chi-Chi.
About 25 years later, when my illness was completely cured, I started karate.
Because I saw my children in pain doing full-contact karate, and I wanted to understand that pain myself.
At that time, I felt like I experienced the kind of youth where you exercise, and the sadness, frustration, and pain of having my exercise restricted as a child felt like it had been sublimated.
I was already an old lady, but I felt like I had become Chi-Chi.
That's why I want to continue to cherish the power of words ☆゜
Once again
my goal is
to create lots and lots of emojis that lead to increased sales!!
And, I'll continue to enjoy making LINE stickers & emojis (*^_^*)!
And,
everything was going well up to this point, but...
My sales in November went down (T_T)
That said, it's still better than I could have imagined last year!
So, I'll continue to make them happily (*^_^*)
Thank you for reading this far (*^_^*)
