[@Stormrunner-dv7kc]

Could you maybe point me in the direction of information about when you need to worry about taxes? I found the video super helpful, but heard conflicting information about tax stuff from someone else and haven't been able to find a source for either thing. Thanks you so much for this video, and your entire channel, its been super helpul to see another teenager running a business.

[@laurenweimer5120]

[@sandy15523]

[@idontknow.8930]

[@michellelugo8232]

[@shrek1648]

[@quiciyanbatu7593]

💖💖💖from phillipines

[@caspizzaz2298]

I just started an Etsy and messed up, this video would've been a lot more helpful a week ago haha(but it's still helpful!)

[@oldvids904]

If u dont mind me asking, how did u stuff up? Im interested in starting an etsy shop but scared i'll stuff up

[@emma-ml5zh]

omg i’m earlyyyy

[@AlexInnovations]

yay!

[@anastasiamurynyuk4864]

Yes sirrrrr hehe

[@dendrix6704]

do you have any video, when you give your bracelets on your hands?

[@thetulalula3654]

Could I use the patterns from bracelet book or would I have to ask permission of the creator of the pattern?

[@yluxcreative9961]

Hi Alex, thank you for sharing all the great ideas. Sorry to ask you, we would like to know if you have experienced any issues trying to contact Etsy Support? We couldn't find any contact number nor a virtual chat for support and all what we find on the forums are negative feedbacks and complaints about payment issues, chat support that has been removed, accounts been hacked or delays on inquiries for support requests. As per now we are seriously thinking twice if we shall continue with Etsy platform or not. We sincerely appreciate your feedback. 🙏🏼

[@willowdove6703]

How do you decide pricing? And figure out if it’s cost effective to even do?

[@Noodles-_]

wOw loads of words :0 nice video :3

[@JosePerez-rg6wy]

I think you still have to file taxes even if Etsy doesn’t give you a 1099 I would look into so you don’t get into problems later on

[@brookeg2446]

I just started an etsy shop called DreamyKnotsCo using this video as a guide. I sell handmade bracelets (most of them are alphas). I can't wait to get my first order! :)

[@koolkatcrafts2296]

Early!

[@AlexInnovations]

yay!!

[@hdtv2186]

Hiiii, I love your videos 💜💕I have a question , so I have done many 16 string bracelets and I am in love with the starburst and I know its 34 strings but I really wanna doooo it, do u think I should do it?

[@AlexInnovations]

H&D TV maybe try the mini starburst first, it’s 22 strings! i have a tutorial for it :)

[@maryjaneyount7931]

How do you open a shop as a minor? Do I put it under my parents information? And then if I do put it under their information how do I switch all that out once I turn 18 with my own information on etsy??

[@jen-gx7gt]

hi Alex I have a question!! it doesn't let me continue making an etsy till I add a social security number but my parents won't let me use theirs :( im 17, will it still work if I use mine?

[@hhopkins8227]

Hello!!!

[@AlexInnovations]

hi!

[@maddys9877]

I'm starting an etsy in a month haha

[@chloewimbish6909]

Wait when do you post

[@themeltedchocolate]

What app do you use to edit your photos?

[@baileyl5023]

Yayyyyy

[@TeenageSmoking.]

Are there ways to sell stuff not through the internet.

[@ShinyGolduck5]

Stands maybe??

[@gilcohen4017]

can you put like an auction on etsy

[@AlexInnovations]

Gil Cohen no :( ebay is better for that!

[@sophiem22]

Does the bank account have to be your parents if you’re underage?

[@AlexInnovations]

Sophie M I doubt it, i’m quite sure just the legal name should be your parent’s. I’d suggest calling Etsy just to make sure.

[@raspberrysorbett]

Heyyy

[@AlexInnovations]

hello!

[@lilyvermaaten5906]

where do you go to college

[@AlexInnovations]

Johns Hopkins University:)

[@lilyvermaaten5906]

Cool

[@sarahglazer2231]

Hello

[@AlexInnovations]

hi!

[@catkat4619]

I wanna start Etsy but I'm 14 😑

[@AlexInnovations]

Katarina Mali if you stay till the end, i describe how to get around that :)

[@chloewimbish6909]

Hi early

[@AlexInnovations]

hello!

[@chloewimbish6909]

Omg you replied

[@N_Forgotten]

Lowkey think you were ranting a bit 😂 great video tho!!

[@AlexInnovations]

N_Forgotten 1302 i just want to help out 🥺

[@themeltedchocolate]

I truly do not understand the point of comments like these

[@jesspowls8394]

Etsy is kinda played out and I think they got clout as opposed to AMAZON. . . . When you open up a amazon account to be a amazon seller... then you have the amazon insurance for the shipping sweetie. No worries. =)

[@noemimayerova3066]

roses are red i do disgress you dont wannna tell a que tutorial like you didnt put in your adress sry if the beggining is wrom lmao
