Hi Shawna! I simply wanted to let you know how thankful I am to stumble upon your channel. The way that you thoroughly explain the processes are remarkable and I TRULY appreciate you. I had just posted my first 100 listings last month, then my laptop had to get repaired, and that time forced me to watch some videos. And thank God (literally lol)! That's when I realized my 100 listings were definitely NOT interrupting the market, (haha! *crying in silence). Now I feel as if I'm starting from scratch again but I am happy to now implement these AMAZING tips. I hope to be as successful as you in the near future, and please continue to share your knowledge. We can't do this without you!

Thanks for another great video. 👍 I noticed no one ever talks about keeping away to take notes with you at all times. Seems I get ideas every time I walk out the door. In the store, bumper stickers, signs. Shirts on people walking by, something said on the radio or in a song. Even other people's conversations, lol. It's an endless source of ideas out there. 😃 Now all I need is an Etsy store 😆

LOL! Yes!!!!!! There is inspiration literally everywhere! Get that shop open! Sounds like you already have lots of ideas to fill it with:)

I am really loving your videos Shawna! They've been really helpful! 🙂 I love systems & I can't really work efficiently without it. Now, I don't have to figure it out myself. I'm gonna apply this for my designing process & w/ your SEO strategies. I am also loving the community your building here. Everyone's so positive & eager to learn about Esty. I learn so much from the comment section alone. Your audience is awesome! I haven't read any negative comments & I get additional learnings from everyone. Lastly, I just wanna share that I got my 2nd sale yesterday. I listed it 4 days ago & tbh I thought it was a terrible design, 😅 but I just need to list something just so I don't break the momentum, & I sold 3 of those! 🙂 My advice to myself & to everyone is Just List It! 😁👍

[@shawnalynn2083]

aaPriLL!!!! I just got chills!!! I think your exact sentences have popped out of my mouth numerous times when talking to friends and family! Don't break the momentum! Just list it! And make it better next time if you don't like it but list it ANYWAY! I am over the moon for you! And thank you so much for the kind words! Your message made me feel so good! I am so glad you enjoyed the video, and I thank you bunches for taking a minute to write this!❤. Bring on more cha-chings today!

Shawna, I've been watching a TON of research videos for POD, and this one is the best one I have seen! I've cobbled together somewhat of a system that has bits and pieces from multiple people in the Etsy POD world... and it's very similar to your process. This video really validated to me that I'm on the right track for researching niches. Just recently discovered your channel (as a suggested video when watching a CassiyJohnson video btw) and have already subscribed - great content! Congratulations on your success and thanks for sharing your processes!

Hey Shawna from the Isle of Skye. Love your content. Do you offer any coaching? Would be interested if yes x

[@shawnalynn2083]

Isle of Skye!!! I have been to your neck of the woods and was in absolute awe of how beautiful it was! I want to make my way back! Thanks so much for the kind words and I am not currently offering coaching but maybe in the future! I am so excited to be a part of your Etsy journey!

[@francramer]

@@shawnalynn2083 thanks for taking the time to reply. I really appreciate it. Amazing that you've been here before. My boys and I are actually moving to Angus in a couple of months so am hoping to get my sales coming in to give my boys the life they deserve. I look forward to learning more from you!

[@janelopez7010]

Such a great video Shawna!! So many people just throw up the designs from Creative Fabrica, but making different designs helps one stand out. Thank you for showing such great strategies! :)

[@shawnalynn2083]

Hi there Jane Thanks so much for watching enjoying! I appreciate you taking an extra minute to leave me such a kind message! And it is all about standing out right?!?! It makes all the difference!$$$. Wishing you lots of cha-chings today.

Hello Shawna :) I have a request for a future video on how you handle questions from customers on sizing of tshirts as well as possible returns in regards to the customer ordering the wrong size. Sorry for the run-on sentence. I am sure the teacher in you chuckled at my grammar. Thanks, Hello Tucker :)

[@shawnalynn2083]

I just jotted this down! I could do a whole video on customer service, but I'm planning to put a video out about 10 Commonly Asked Questions - And I just added this to it for you! Don't worry! I WAS NOT judging your grammar! LOL

[@ic.FXIXiii]

Thanks for your all your insight, Shawna! Definitely loving designing better so far!

[@shawnalynn2083]

Hi there India! I am so glad you are enjoying the videos! ME TOO! It is my FAV!!!

[@richhaagenson]

This was super helpful! I was wondering if you used the same SEO block for all these designs? I can't remember if you mentioned it or not so my apologies if you did.

[@24caratti]

[@cookingforgeezersgeezesses9276]

Really educational and enjoyable. Thank you. Do you connect to Printify or similar site for the finished bought product? If so, what image format/resolution do you need in Etsy in order to have it print out to the right quality?

[@shawnalynn2083]

Hi there! Thanks so much for watching and I am so glad you are enjoying the content! I use both Printful and Printify. I save my images at 4500 by 5400 and a DPI of at least 200. Hope this helps!

[@belindahicks6137]

l Love the process of design. Not sure about SEO.

[@shawnalynn2083]

Designing is just so much fun!

[@michelleking1008]

Thank you for the inspiration! I’m new to Etsy and this video helped spark my creativity! Love your videos ♥️

[@shawnalynn2083]

I am so glad to hear that! Thanks so much for sending me this encouraging message!

[@lydiapali]

Hi Shawna, thanks so much for this wonderful video!! I was wondering what program you are using to erase some elements from the little book guy you got on creative Fabrica? I know there are many out there but I want something simple and I know you can’t really erase elements with a brush tool yet in canvas or Kittl. Thanks so much!!!

[@shawnalynn2083]

Hey there! I am so glad you enjoyed this one! I was using GoDaddy Studios in this video. Hope this helps!

[@sot.c]

You are so awesome, your help is beyond appreciated!! Have a wonderful weekend!

[@shawnalynn2083]

What a nice message! Thanks so much for watching and taking a second to send such a nice message! Wishing you a fantastic weekend as well!

[@sot.c]

@@shawnalynn2083 Most welcome! I know making these videos is a lot of work, I hope your channel grows like crazy, you have such good content! I also was wondering if you would do a GoDaddy Studio Tutorial... I got it yesterday, but I can't figure out how to make your image high resolution there - the image I made and put on a mockup was apparently a low resolution image according to Printify. BUT I love how easy it is to make a PNG there! Oh and do you know how to upload a font there from Creative Fabrica? I will Google all this as well, so no worries if you can't get to this- but again sincerely appreciate what you are teaching here!
