Brittany is the best teacher I have ever had the opportunity to learn from. I have never heard anyone that teaches Esty as good as she does, everything she does is packed with information and I learn so much from her courses.

I just read a very discouraging Reddit thread about becoming a digital Etsy seller. they keep saying it’s over saturated. No sales. But you made it? Is there hope for me starting today? Looking for some encouraging words from you please. Thnx 🙏

When you say to stop expecting these big results when you’re just starting out, What about all the KZbinrs that interview these people that make all this money after their first couple of months? To me if you have seen it’s possible, I get frustrated when I’ve done all the things you’re told to do and still crickets. 😢

I won't speak for Brittany-- or any other youtubers-- but what I've noticed as an Etsy coach is that everyone comes to the table with a totally different level of experience, skills, and mindset. So some people will knock it out of the park on their first try. But most of us (myself included when I started) take a while to see traction.

For Printify-- returns and exchanges are not supported if your customer ordered the wrong size, color, or simply changed their mind. However, in case of a damaged product or a manufacturing error, they do offer a free reprint or a refund if you contact them within 30 days of product delivery.

@@howtosellyourstuff they are getting lots of views actually! So I did my research and found niches that I knew were in demand. Decided to put some ad spend toward a few of them and this one in particular has over 35k views, over 800 clicks and quite the ad spend. The ROAS are under 1. 38 orders so far. Product cost is under $4. Basically the product is breaking even with its ad spend. The views have really helped my shop gain sales velocity yet I'm seeing no profit. I would love to hear any strategies, thoughts or feedback on advertising such a low cost item? Do you think it will ever become profitable?

The free version of Everbee doesn't give sales data. And it is way too expensive to subscribe compared to other services. If they would cut the monthly price in half, they would probably have like a million more subscribers because that is the main reason I hear people say they won't sign up.

I totally get where you're coming from Jen! I think there's always ways to at least get started without paying for the tools. You can glean information from just looking at the listing, for badges, and reviews. But the tools, while not free, can definitely save time and offer more detail.

I had three very successful stores on etsy. One store was shut down because I was selling leather slings for rifles even thou I was not using the word rifle they shut it down then shut down my other two stores because the first store was shut down. No warning no second chance no reason why... At least with ebay you get several warnings now its time for a change. I will be giving Goimagine a try now. People love etsy as long as they are making money, once they lose that etsy is evil and yea etsy is evil.

I don't need to feel "loved" by Etsy. I just need to feel secure and respected as a shop owner. The best way that Etsy can provide a safe atmosphere for shop owners is to offer real human customer service again and stop forcing shop owners to opt into offsite marketing, etc. I have had my Etsy shop since 2012. Etsy was always such a warm and friendly place to sell. Now, it is extremely volatile and rocky. Not to mention the p0rn that is allowed to be sold on the platform, which has made it a very unsafe place for children anymore. I respectfully disagree with your gueats statement that Etsy isn't doing anything wrong. Etsy has done so much wrong in the past 4 years.

I came across your KZbin channel by accident and your positive 'vibes' (that sounds so hippy-dippy!) make me really happy. I find it interesting that many people in the Etsy 'sphere' seem to have ADHD. I know Starla Moore and her partner have said that they suspect they have ADHD. John from goImagine seems to share our intense energy. My ears literally pricked up like a cat when you mentioned ADHD - I just happened to be thinking about neurodiversity in the online selling circle; thinking "oh, this is probably just in my imagination" and you mentioned having ADHD! I guess we neurodiverse people just have that drive to do it our own way
