No stress, you don’t need to guess the perfect price right away. A few quick checks will get you there.
1) Look at your document’s value
The more complete and useful your document is, the more it’s worth. Ask yourself:
How much time does this save another student?
Is it clear, well-structured, and detailed?
Does it include info that’s hard to find online?
A full summary or practice bundle is usually worth more than a few loose notes.
2) Compare with similar documents on Stuvia
Search for documents like yours (same course/topic/level). This helps you see:
what other sellers charge
what students are willing to pay
Tip: you don’t have to be the cheapest. Quality can cost a little more.
3) Test and adjust
You can change your price anytime, and it updates immediately.
Not selling much? Try lowering it a bit.
Selling quickly? Your price is probably right.
Students are happy to pay for quality that saves them real time and effort, find a price that feels fair and attractive.
