Hey, Hannah I notice that when I raise my ads to 10$ a day all my listings spotted on the 1st page of the Etsy Listings but when I turn it off my listings gone on the 1st page. When I lower the price of ads to 1$ my listings got spotted on 3 page. So it means ads will help me to rank my listings depending on my budget. On your experience what is the best choice on Ads is it to maximize visibility or to drive short term order?

[@Couponmom90]

I’m curious to know your thoughts on whether we should leave ads on for a product that is ranking first page on its own.

[@EcomHannah]

100%, but also there is no way for you to really check rank since it is different based on your location and own search history

[@WeirdStuffRyan]

Have you ever compared cpc vs organic traffic in terms of conversions?

[@WeirdStuffRyan]

I have an tik tok account doing 44M views monthly and would be perfect for a product placement. Just curious if you think that those 44m with a product would convert similar to 44m in ads?

[@EcomHannah]

it depends on how much synergy the account is with the product. Can you make a super entertaining integrated video some how? I think it is worth trying

[@WeirdStuffRyan]

@@EcomHannah would you recommend doing Etsy or Shopify if you have outside traffic?

[@CleanAuraCandles23]

What do you recommend for digital etsy stores? My budget just got turned up to 200 per day I've gotten 7 sales in less then a month with a 5 dollar a day budget. I am constantly working/tweeking and researching as my goal is to turn this into a lucrative income. Should you keep ads on for something that's been getting alot of views but no sales (4k views-3 sales) most of my listing are 1- 6 dollars

[@Unseentarot]

Hey! I'm not sure if you'll see this but I find your videos super helpful! I recently increased my budget. I was seeing consistent sales but my budget was always entirely spent by early afternoon everyday. I increased from $25 to $50 and it's now spending my budget even faster with fewer sales...(though it's only been 2 days). Do I keep increasing it or wait for it to settle at this point, even though it runs out mid-day? (I currently have an ROI of 5.65 on one of my best products, and others in a similar range).

[@EcomHannah]

You can increase it as fast or slow as you want, its more about tweaking the dials and pulling out winners and turning off ones wasting your budget

[@clairejevron6146]

Would you do this with digital items? My items are around $3. It gives me the option to go up to 1000

[@EcomHannah]

Yes I can definitely do a dedicated video on this?

[@itsmichellehinsberg]

I'm spending this month testing out different ad budgets, I've done $50 for a week, then $125, $250, and now $500 but as I increase the budget my Ad Spend stays around $50 (no matter the budget limit) and my revenue and profit are declining. Any thoughts? Next week I'm upping to $1000. I've been doing stages so I can gather data on each level.

[@bearr1942]

Etsy has changed dramatically since April. It doesn't matter what your budget is now. They have screwed up majorly. I used to have $50 a day and my sales were crazy. After April. 0. Literally nothing. Changed it to $5 a day and Etsy only took around $3 a day. With or without sales. There are tons of sellers will tell you this and have tons of complaints about this. So it's not you. It's Etsy. Don't waste your money. So her video would only be good or make since up until April.

[@itsmichellehinsberg]

@@bearr1942 I've been doing $1000 Ad Budget since May and my results have gotten better over time: May was $1,221.30 (AdSpend) and $1665.36 (Revenue) - June $476 (AdSpend) and $1,369.04 (Revenue) - July $772.51 (AdSpend) and $3,168.58 (Revenue) ... I think her advice still stands. And I believe the theory is with an Ad Budget of $1000/day you are telling Etsy you are willing to outbid your competition not that Etsy is going to spend $1000/day. In fact, you want to look at your ad results each month and try to get the ad spend number down while increasing the revenue by eliminating listings that aren't giving you a good ROAS. Also you're listings need to be top-tier and fully optimized for this to benefit you in my opinion. I made adjustments for my product offering in the first week of July and the increase in sales was almost immediate.

[@Peanutcoladaa]

@@bearr1942yup your 100% right idk what they did with the ads

[@alinahartsfield9759]

I would not say that at all, I do $1000 a day on about 180 listings, it spends $100-120 a day and I get good amount of sales.

[@TeesbyManny-bp6gg]

What has helped for me is testing different budgets for four weeks! And I start seeing the different changes about week 2-3. 🖤good luck!

[@jennifervasquez251]

Hi Hannah, Is it ok to change the AD spent a few times a week or should that not be moved? Sometimes I see Etsy wants to spend more than $60 so I bring it down from $100 to $60 but I'm wondering if it's better to just leave it as the same number everyday and not touch it?

[@EcomHannah]

The goal with etsy ads is to get to your max budget allowance with max profitability which is done by tweaking the dials, I always recommend to increase the budget never go backwards as you want to show the algorithm you are willing to out bid your competition, There is much more at play here as you do not want to waste money so be sure to be turning things off not yielding your profit standards see free ads training here: www.ecomhannah.com/tqk1922

[@heatherm2428]

Thank you for so much value. I love that you addressed using other metrics to determine the profitability of the ad. I know that my ads have generated more money than what is reflective in the Esty Ad performance data - ex. initial sale stemming from an Ad click and then multiple orders coming in from an event based sale from a link shared with a group. I just wish I could figure out how to make Etsy spend my money. Right now I am running a 2.5% conversion rate on my ads and Etsy only spends about 10% of my set budget of $100 with 300+ listings advertised. If allowed, I would up it to the $1k, but Etsy must have some sort of incremental increases built in to its algorithm. I would love it if you could do some kinda lesson on your pie chart. I have no problem doing an expense pie chart, but the profit piece of the pie in the example always throws me off. My mind goes back to reporting charts I created for sales in my previous job and I view the Profit slice as Payroll and so I know I am missing something big for those new businesses that don't have a profit. lol

[@mirjam1626]

Hi Hannah, discovered your channel today. Few questions ❤ 1. I opened my account last year but I opened up my shop a few days ago. Is that something that Etsy sees as negative? 2. I saw that there is a pro option. Imo not much extra for $10 pm. Do you think Etsy also favors pro shops over non pro shops? 3. Do run more than 1 shop? I’m considering (once this one is up and running) to open up 2 more stores. If you do run more than one shop would you say it’s a good decision? I just have a few big passions but they are all very different. I want to keep my niches clean. Thanks so much for making these videos. Soon I’m going to marathon watch all of your vids haha. Much love and wishing you off the charts success with all that you do

If you are getting great organic traffic do ads hurt you, since you can only take up so many places in the top pages? Should I focus ad spend on stuff new stuff vs stuff already selling really well without ads?

[@EcomHannah]

If you have organic data and some good indexed listings you def want to fuel your fire and add some ad spend behind those organically selling ones. Historically if you have never spent on ads in the beginning that marketing cost % might change your net for the worse but over time as you tweak the dials you should be able to scale way passed where you currently are.

[@fretwireonfire]

Can you point out in Etsy documentation or your conversation with Etsy that the out bidding thing is actually how it works or is this just theory?

[@EcomHannah]

This is my theory as this is how most ads platforms work, amazon, FB, google, etc. Unlike these platforms where it is shared public-ally Etsy is super cryptic and does not but I would imagine it would be no different for Etsy. If I was a business who would I give that ad position too? the guy saying Ill give you .30 cents a click or the guy saying ill give you .35 cents a click. You know what I mean? But that is just my opinion and I am not telling people what to do I am just sharing what I do personally.

Thanks for these great tips! I just opened my shop this week (Wednesday 27 April). I worked a lot on the keywords in the titles as well as on the tags. Two days later (Friday), I had 7 visits on my shop (1 per product sheet) in "direct traffic". I don't know if I should wait a bit and let SEO do its job (for 1 month for example) and : 1) see which items sell (I add 1 product sheet per day) AND then only do paid ads for these items? 2) or if I have to pay directly for Etsy Ad? What do you think?

the worst thing you can do is collect data based on day by day you need to look at your ads on a larger scale 2-3 days of spend is not enough data, a listing needs thousands of views and hundreds of clicks to know what is going on with the listing

Good Q

This is contingent on a few variables. Could be yes could be no 1. Yes, if your store front is optimized with 20-50 reviews and it collected multiple hundreds clicks and 0 ATCs 2. No, if your store is brand spanking new with little no reviews, if its showing signs of hope with ATCs 3. Yes or No depending on how comfortable you are willing to invest before you give up (for me I invest 40-60 in a listing before its uncomfortable but I sell high ticket items), if it is a low ticket item and it has spent an uncomfortable amount of money stealing clicks from your other listings with no signs of momentum

Hi Hannah, Thank you for the great content. I Have a well established Etsy store (since 2017), with approx 1500 listings. I spend $50 per day for advertising with my max budget being $1000 per day.

[@EcomHannah]

First I would check if I have them fully optimized and if optimized correctly I personally would go to 1k because the spend should scale proportionally to the rev since it’s PPC but if that’s uncomfortable because you do not know if they are optimized right and your blindly running them I would dial it back first before raising anything

So out of every 50-100 listings you see that only 10-20% of your listings make 80% of your sales this is normal, that is why launching new stuff should be a consistent part of your engine. Your budget being spent on a day to day basis is contingent on many variables but the way it is spending is also normal. Do not analyze from the day to day but from the month to month, that is true valuable data to look at. To get it to start spending on more, you will need to launch more listings and turn off listings that have collected multiple thousands of impressions with no hope of momentum and losing money

I greatly enjoy your videos and your vibe, Hannah, but it's worth prefacing that this video's information is only useful to sellers who sell/resell from large inventories. Some sellers on Etsy, myself included, are hobby makers, and we don't have large inventories and that makes big advertising budgets redundant. I am also a customer on Etsy and from that side of the fence I see Etsy's marketplace is totally flooded with mass-produced product coming from cheap labor forces and that greatly detracts from the initial appeal Etsy once had.

Thank you so much for the love and watching! I totally understand your perspective. I also make everything in house but what happens with these third-party selling platforms is as they become flooded with competition eventually, it will push out all of the mom and pop shops that just do it as a side gig. You can either evolve and make your processes scalable to build a more serious business or unfortunately overtime Your shop will get drowned out. As someone that does not sell print on demand or any of those digital downloads low barrier of entry models it’s definitely harder for someone say like me or you that in order to scale properly you are forced to restructure your business model in order to make systems that are sackable and that make sense financially. Harder task? Yes, but with it as usually brings a stronger moat around your brand long term. Competition forces us to build better businesses, and put systems behind all of our processes, to make it a legitimate scalable business.

[@EcomHannah]

An example of this is, if you’re making things made to order, you would want to consider fine tuning your design or process or even the types of product you launch so that you can make it to hold inventory.

I make my jewelry myself and without ads I would probably make one sale a month so it is 100% worth it, I price my jewelry on the higher end so ads totally worth it, I found that not everyone buys cheap mass produced stuff because and I do not compete on price and still make good sales but only because of ads

[@fillipa3189]

Hi Hannah, my Etsy shop is about a month old, I've been posting a new listing each day and at most I get 5 views a day in total, I'd be grateful for any tips you'd have for me, I'd like to run Etsy Ads but I should probably wait until I sell something first to then boost that listing right?

[@EcomHannah]

Not necessarily it is hard to give you specific advice as there are so so many variables that could be working for you or against you. I would need to take a deeper look into your business model to see what is going on :/

[@franciscacaviedes1785]

Okay this is something I can't wrap my head around for some reason when I hear "it's like putting 1 dollar in and getting 2 back", what am I not understanding? so let's say etsy uses $1000 for your ads, and you make $3000 ROI - wouldn't you just be loosing money? because you put in $1000, but you made $3000 REVENUE not profit? profit ends up being around 30% so wouldn't you just be breaking even? I saw a video of a guy saying he spent 100,000k and made 250,000 I was like? how is that profitable if its 250,000 revenue

[@randellet]

There's this TalkShop guy on KZbin here, where he talks about spending $200,000 on ads and all that BS. Granted, it may or may not be Etsy ads, but how many dog collars will he need to sell to make up all the $$$ he blew on ads? One thing is for sure. Etsy CEO Josh Silverman is laughing all the way to the bank with his 8-figure salary last year.

[@EcomHannah]

You are correct that is not profitable but I would encourage you to watch the full video to hear the full strategy and how I analyze the ads

[@EcomHannah]

It is highly likely it is spending that month and running a 7 figure shop as well, I spent 96k just last year on my 7 figure brand. Which in the grand scheme of things is not even that much compared to the people we look up to.

[@franciscacaviedes1785]

@@EcomHannah yes agreed - but how much ROI did you get on the 96K? I understand it being part of the process to be "losing" money for even several months, but something about the the math aint mathin in my head, maybe future vid? thanks anyways!

[@EcomHannah]

@@franciscacaviedes1785net profit margins my first year were over 30% and second and 3rd year was around 20-25% I have full videos of my P & L that will help give you a visual! But the helpful info for your own business is to be analyzing the marketing cost % in comparison to top line and all other direct expenses as I show in the pie chart. Marketing cost % is the biggest variable expense you should have and it should be your goal every month to tweak the dials to lower it and be tracking it on a P and L

So I actually made that comment before watching your whole video. Upped my ads to $100 (which is my max) and I made 7 sales the same day. Didn’t spend the entire budget, only advertising my best listings. Thank you for your advice 😅 sorry for the dramatic comment.

@@EcomHannah okay SO. I’m currently making out my ad budget at $1,000 per day. I ended up focusing it on my best listings and any new listings. I’m doing really well. It’s only been two weeks.

I used to watch your videos and enjoyed the content and visuals. Now I only can listen to audio since your videos use excessively distracting effects. It doesn't add anything to the message, it is highly distracting and it just downgrades the production to cheap level of a TV reality show. It feels like a desperate attempt to keep the attention of the listener on the contrary does quite opposite. Just be confident in yourself and you won't need any fireworks to amuse the crowd. Best regards and good luck!

[@aaronhernandez5166]

yikes... this is painfully bad advice. You've posted how much you make on etsy and shopify and there is no way this is sustainable or good. First thing... etsy is an algorithm that makes money, they don't favor sellers based on psychology, the favor sellers that sell. If you have good products that sell etsy will push your ad ahead. While marketing budgets are a thing, 80% of revenue is insane... you should put ~5% of your revenue or expected revenue toward marketing.

[@EcomHannah]

Hmmm perhaps watch the whole video to hear the whole strategy, I do mention all these things above. 80% of revenue would be insanely high but sometimes brands do have to spend that much when they first launch or any business really. Also I am just sharing what I do and what’s worked historically for me. My 7 figure brands usually sit around a 10-15% marketing cost percentage so we beat the market average of about 20%. I think what you saw was the income from the ad, remember that’s not top line sales and you want to look at your business as a whole not “your ads generated you”. 5% is extremely low for a new business but like I say in the video something is better than nothing and you also don’t know what that 5% actually is when you launch since you do not know what top line will be. Obviously the goal would be 5% haha that would be amazing

She obviously watched 40 seconds of the video and that’s it haha watch the whole video dude

[@jag5798]

What would Etsy want? Made me think CLICK FARM. Hire out clicks. That is what I would do if I were Etsy. Balance it out with 50% sells to keep you hooked in buying ads.
