I've been on Etsy for 20 months with 86,000 sales and ranked 180th globally in sales. I would agree with much of this video. You don't have to reinvent the wheel. There's no magic formula. Find your audience and grow over time. Just be better than other sellers... better pictures, better descriptions, SEO, and kill it with customer service. That's the recipe.

Hi Ryan, Did you use any paid advertising to get the snowball rolling? I feel that in the beginning it would be difficult to get sales without facebook / instagram ads.

[@GachaGrill1]

How do you do this can someone help me or tell me stuff that I might need to do!?

[@FiestaBuckeye]

​@@GachaGrill1 Honestly, this is something you have to figure out on your own, but I will say that it is not difficult. Look at high volume sellers on Etsy and see if you can reverse engineer any of their processes. It might be something that you never would have guessed or something you have no interest in. That doesn't matter. Your in the business to make money, not to like your product. That's the biggest mistake I see people make on Etsy. Once you have a potential product or service, just act on it. Make a listing. It's that simple. Most Etsy shops started out small and don't require a ton of capital. I started mine with a $38 product order and just kept pumping profits back into the business. From there, just kick the snot out of your competition. Listings are your storefront, so you want every single element to be better than your competition. Go get it.

OMG as someone with a few marketing degrees, you nailed it. The whole "niche" market thing is what professionals do. This was a very helpful video for me (starting an Etsy shop).

[@MyHaytem]

Good point on the packaging. Including something special in the package can help your reputation big time, and it can even help dealing with customer issues sometimes, like late shipping for example. I like include a little complimentary gift in my package along with a thank you note and a business card. You can tell how big of an impact it has when they leave a review talking about the whole experience.

yes targeting a small group of buyers is the key! If your target audience is not unique then you have not done enough research.

Thanks for the great insights, just one consideration... from what I know, Etsy is quite adamant in not allowing sellers to ask or incentivize positive reviews in any way. What they allow though, is asking for reviews or feedback *in a neutral way*. I suggest correcting that in the video so people don't make that mistake and cost them some sort of strike by Etsy.

Everything here is what has really helped my shop in the last year, so it's confirmation that I'm on the right track. I do agree that finding a niche is important. That's where my sales finally took off after years of trying to figure things out. I was already in a niche, but had to go into a sub-niche to get found. I have also had a boost this year by having more repeat customers. I also send them a sticker with my own artwork on it. I previously bought sticker flakes to add to my orders, but they LOVE the custom stickers a lot more. After that, my review rate increased. I recently changed the way I do packaging, so crossing fingers that that will bring further success.

@@traciecunningham3382 hi there! I took a quick look at your shop and your hats are very nice! A few things I will say is it is a very new shop and it will just take time to make sales. Etsy needs time to pick you up in the algorithm. The more listings you can upload, the better because then shoppers can find you easier. I noticed you are not using your whole title space. It's very important to use up your title space and tags because this will help customers find you. Also your description does not include much. Take a look at what your successful competitors are doing and take inspiration from that. Hope that helps! :)

I am starting digital products etsy store. Well done . More success to you.

Love The video! Thank you! I just opened my shop a couple of weeks ago. When you talk about standing out. Do you mean to add those keywords in a description of the product or tags?

[@growhandmade2477]

Tags! For SEO purposes. Etsy doesn’t use your description to rank you in search. Your description is more for increasing your conversion rate. still important, but not directly for SEO. Other search engines can pick up keywords from your description, but Etsy doesn’t.

This is the best video by far for people who want to sell on Etsy and make sales. I am going to start a shop soon but am nervous about doing so. So hopefully your words will inspire me!

[@UsmanAli-nt5tq]

Same as me, want to sell on Etsy and having bundle of items specially in leather, but but in Pakistan don't have PayPal service so I'm Also worries

[@gedoeniko]

At the time when the video was made: 137 sales of items $6.99 is not enough for full time income.

she is definitely making money through her YT videos in ad revenue which probably allows her to be self employed. trust. multiple streams of income!

I’m making lots of sales and traffic on my esty store after Edwinconsult __ on Instagram helped me out..

[@RosaKrystleRose]

There seems to be no checklist. It’s trying to sell me some thing taking me to other people shops showing me all kinds of nonsense, but no free checklist.

Helllo, I sold on ebay back when it was almost the only game in town. It was simple but now there's so much to learn. Thanks for the tips. I looked into personalized items like I want to offer but prices are about 30% less then what I would like. My Items are way more personalized so maybe it will work?

[@growhandmade2477]

Hi! Are you referring to eBay or Etsy? These tips are for Etsy and there is a difference there. If you’re selling on Etsy, personalized products are very popular and you can definitely charge more for that. What are you selling?

[@firesmith1373]

@@growhandmade2477 Thanks for replying! I'm not sure were to sell but etsy looks best for hand made items. Maybe both. My profile picture has to bottle openers I made. I'm thinking without the hook they also could be keychain charms. I could make them now but belt buckles and I'm not sure what else?

Fire Smith amazing! You can definitely sell on both Etsy and eBay. On Etsy, you can charge more and offer customizable options. You can get started now with what you have. Just make sure you take some good quality photos and use strong tags. I have a few videos that could help you with that. And if you need some more personalized support, I can help you more in depth in my facebook group :)

[@financialchimes4546]

You say you were able to replace a full-time income with your etsy shop after just 6 weeks but 137 sales in 2 months for 6.99 each is far from a full-time income (even if that full 6.99 was profit).

[@Ebony.jonelle]

Hating for sure.

For an Etsy Customers reading this take note about the reviews, I've lost count how many times ive politely asked them to leave a review when they've said how pleased they are with the product but to no avail, please take the time to do so as it really helps potential customers decide if they want to buy from your shop

[@hannahmitchell87]

Etsy already prompts them repeatedly for reviews. I ask once, in my shipping dispatch then no more. People don't like to be hassled. I bet if you just start thanking them for their compliments instead of asking for a review, youi'll get more

[@BeeBee-gi2zr]

@@hannahmitchell87 i do ask once when i politely check they've received their item & all is ok..... I didn't say i don't get reviews i was merely pointing out that reviews are important in a day & when people are sceptical who to buy from!!

[@hannahmitchell87]

@@BeeBee-gi2zr Fair enough, I guess we have different ways of approaching it. I thought you were saying not many buyers review despite you asking? I agree, reviews are important, I just wouldn't try to get one at the risk of annoying my customer after I'd already potentially bothered them by messaging them. Nowadays, I treat no news as good news & a convo or a review as a bonus. Just speaking from experience after trying a similar approach to yours initially & noticing generally happier customers & more reviews when I backed off post-purchase. You do you though. Everyone's different. Best of luck :)

[@louiseelizabeth9613]

I think it's against etsy policies to offer an incentive for their review

[@tessburr2012]

I'm gonna try this, not having much luck, but I just started so I'm grateful
