Case Study: Kaiwan Shaban achieves $70K in sales and becomes his own boss with Sellfy

How Kaiwan became his own boss with Sellfy

Kaiwan Shaban is a self-taught photographer and YouTuber who needed a reliable way to monetize his tutorials and digital tools beyond small YouTube ad revenue. He turned to Sellfy for a simple, buyer-friendly eCommerce solution to sell photography presets, overlays and other digital products.

Using Sellfy’s storefront, PayPal integration, store customization and email marketing, Kaiwan launched products in 2016 and quickly scaled his business—making an initial $60 in hours and eventually earning nearly $70,000 from Sellfy, collecting about 100,000 emails and driving over 1.3 million store visits. Sellfy’s ease of use helped him grow an organic audience (237K+ YouTube subscribers), quit university, and become his own boss.
