How to Earn $10,000/Month With Canva – No Experience Required

Forget Photoshop! Canva Is Helping Freelancers Earn 6 Figures Online
Forget Photoshop knowledge, forget coding knowledge, forget degrees, forget expensive and premium software knowledge. Whether you are a beginner, a freelancer, working part-time, or full-time, today I will reveal a secret Canva method that will help you go from $0 to $10K in just 3 months with ease.
Now, you must be wondering—is this really possible?
My answer is—YES, absolutely possible! I have achieved this milestone myself, and there are independent freelancers earning even more than me—just by using Canva for freelancing and online business.
Let Me Introduce Myself
My name is Prashant Tiwari, and I am a professional freelancer, web designer, content writer, and digital marketing expert. Three years ago, I had zero knowledge about freelancing. Before starting my freelancing career, I spent 6-7 months just thinking about where to begin. Sometimes, I thought about focusing on web design, then content writing, sometimes SEO, and other times working on YouTube and Instagram.
Amidst this confusion, 6-7 months passed without any clear decision. But one good thing that happened was that I kept learning. As they say, “Once a learner, always a learner!” No matter where you learn from, keep learning—because knowledge never goes to waste.
How I Discovered Canva and Started Earning Money Online
Finally, I decided to become a web designer and started designing websites using WordPress. To get my first clients, I started running Facebook and Instagram ads to attract low-ticket clients and began designing websites for their businesses.
During website designing, I noticed a huge problem—99% of clients do not provide high-quality images and banners for their websites. This search for high-quality images led me to Canva.
That’s when I discovered that Canva offers high-quality pre-made templates and graphics that I could use for my clients’ websites. Since Canva’s content can be used for commercial purposes, and its user-friendly editor makes designing super easy, I fell in love with Canva instantly!
I started using Canva to create everything—
- Social media posts
- Reels
- Website banners
- Promotional graphics
- Visiting cards, PDFs, and more
With pre-made templates, reels, video templates, and customizable designs, Canva became my go-to tool for creating social media content for small businesses.
The Big Market Gap: Social Media Content for Small Businesses
As time passed, I analyzed that in the market, small, medium, and large business owners face one major challenge—handling their social media accounts (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, YouTube, Google My Business).
Since they do not have the time or skills to create content regularly, they rely on social media agencies or freelancers.
This is where I found a huge business opportunity—without any investment!
How I Got My First 22 Clients in Just One Week
So, what next? I started brainstorming like crazy and quickly came to a conclusion—I should start in my own city first. The advantage of starting locally is huge. If you look around, within a 5KM radius, you’ll find hundreds, even thousands of businesses that are either already online or will be by 2025.
Out of those thousands, I only needed to pitch 100 businesses for their social media handling and content creation.
But before reaching out, I knew one thing very well—
Clients will always ask for your previous work or demo before hiring you!
So, before approaching them, I created different Facebook and Instagram pages for different business categories like:
- Gym business page
- Restaurant business page
- Domestic help service page
- Electronics & electric services page
Then, I went ahead and uploaded over 100+ reels, videos, banners, and images on each page.
This was super important, because in this field, when you pitch a business owner, they will always ask for samples. If you don’t have anything to show, your chances of closing the deal drop to just 10%.
But if you present them with a ready-to-use, well-structured portfolio, they will make an instant decision to hire you.
So my golden rule: Before pitching businesses, create multiple pages and upload category-specific reels, banners, festival posts, information posts, promotional videos, AI voice-over videos, and more.
How I Closed 22 Clients in Just One Week
Next, I spent one full week pitching 100 business owners in my city. My offer?
🔹 Daily 2 posts, 1 banner, 2 reels for 25 days
🔹 Full social media management for just $30/month (₹2500/month)
After pitching 100 businesses, 22 of them signed up immediately!
For the remaining, many of them saved my number, saying they’d let me know later. But here’s what I did—I also saved their numbers and started sending them weekly or monthly promotional offers via WhatsApp.
Why? Because I knew that if I could stay in their subconscious mind, they would eventually contact me whenever they needed digital marketing help. And that’s exactly what happened.
That day, I was so happy because, as a freelancer, I had just locked in ₹44,000 ($600) in monthly recurring income!
How I Managed & Scaled This Without Extra Effort
Now, the next big challenge—how to manage this work alone, and how to scale it even further?
But before I could think about scaling, I had to deliver for my 22 clients first.
Within 24 hours, I created an entire month’s worth of content for all 22 clients using Canva.
How?
Because Canva is a goldmine when it comes to bulk content creation.
- Pre-made templates save time
- Easy drag-and-drop editing makes customization fast
- No design skills needed—anyone can do it
If you’ve ever used Canva, you already know its power. And if you haven’t, you’re seriously missing out on the biggest pre-made design library in the world.

How I Took My Business to the Next Level (3 Tricks That Worked Like Magic)
After delivering work for my first 22 clients, I started thinking about scaling further. I realized that if I wanted more clients, more income, and more growth, I had to expand my approach.
So, I tested 3 strategies—and they worked like a charm.
1) Facebook Group Marketing (Free, But Super Powerful)
I joined hundreds of business-related Facebook groups across different cities. But I was smart about it—I only joined groups where posts could be shared directly without admin approval.
Every day, I spent just 10-15 minutes posting in 100+ groups, pitching my services to business owners.
2) WhatsApp Bulk Messaging (Small Investment, High ROI)
I got a new phone number and started sending bulk WhatsApp messages to business owners.
📌 Does this require investment?
Yes, but just a little bit. If you’ve got a strong service and a good price point, WhatsApp marketing is one of the fastest ways to get clients.
3) Facebook & Instagram Ads (The Ultimate Money Maker)
This was the real game-changer. Since I was already designing websites, I started offering a “Website + 3 Months of Free Social Media Content” package.
#The result?
#More website design orders
#More long-term social media clients
I also tested solo ads, where I bundled monthly or yearly social media content packs.
My ROI was insane!
- If I spent ₹1000 ($10) on ads, I made ₹5000-₹10,000 ($50-$100) in return!
- Because every business needs content, but 90% of business owners don’t have the time or knowledge to create it themselves.
If you already have a digital marketing skill like web design, SEO, or ads, this method will work even faster for you.
But even if you’re a complete beginner, you can still start freelancing with just Canva and zero investment.
