How To Get To The Top Of TPT
Picture your product sitting at the very top of the TPT home page.
➡️ Above the fold, no scrolling, no ads.
Here’s the trick:
It’s all about timing.
The EXACT time teachers are shopping in your store.
There’s an interesting conversation in the PRO community right now.
When do teachers buy from you?
What surprises me is how different the pattern is month-to-month and store-to-store.
Here’s my heat map for September 2024.
I see sales on:
🕔 Sunday afternoons
🕤 Weekday mornings during school.
When do people buy from you?
Make your own time heat map for your store and tell me how it’s different from mine.
The Google Sheet tool is free until Sunday Aug 31, 2025.
(Thank you for opening this email right away!)

Worried about district bans on TPT?
Your sales might go up or down in September.
The key question is: do buyers stop shopping during the school day?
Let’s test it:
- Make a heat map for Sept 1–30, 2024
- Make a heat map for Sept 1–30, 2025
- Compare what changed
For those of you signed up for the September Boot camp, I’ll see you at the warm up on Sunday!
Cheers, Mike
