[@sagew111]

I'm 16, and I've done a few markets, literally the most fun stuff ever! Would totally recommend getting into them! I barely have a following, however I plan on marketing and promoting my work more. Thank you so much for the advice, you are a huge inspiration!

[@crochetbygenna]

This is awesome advice!! Keep crushing it

[@ChantelleArts]

I'm going to be starting my own shop next year and I cannot wait! I tried various different digital and print on demand routes and it's just never gone as imagined. I've wanted to make my own products and sell them myself for so long and am finally taking the plunge 🥰

[@katievx]

i love love LOVE how you keep it real in your videos! you’re honest when things don’t go as you hoped and show that it’s okay when that happens and that it’s okay to be disappointed about it - i think this is really the push i need to start selling my creations and not be afraid

[@Aquavies72810]

New subscriber here. I'd like to thank u for your encouraging words. This crochet may be unknown to others but the benefits of making crochet is to relax a person and to be patience in all terms. But putting this into business is another story to excel in skills and the passion to create more ideas in design. God bless🙏🏼

[@marcusice5400]

Etsy shut down mine and my husband's etsy shops for no reason at all. Had our shop for 2 years! Would not give us a reason when we asked. So we have opened our own website shop. We create and sell unique etched engravings and wooden layered arts. So much fun. ❤

[@SavannahSCC]

I will say Genna is a great person to support you during starting your business she is suh a bright light anda GREAT mentor for someone is struggling to start off. Thank you Genna for the video love you girly.

I have one of your strawberry turtles from 3 years ago. It’s my favorite possession in the whole world.

[@crafdeegu]

Hi Genna! Thanks for your video! I too recently fell in love with crochet. Yarn addiction is real BTW. Where I'm from, (Guam!) the market for customers in this field is pretty minimal, I feel. But, I found a real passion for this and want to sell my creations! I know I need to just DO IT! Thanks for your videos! I've purchased your cow patterns and can't wait to bring them to life!

[@AshlynnCasias]

This was really inspiring thank you Genna!

[@ASquareGranny]

Peep that counter, though! 👀. That’s my girl!!! ☺️🧡 x

I’m such a huge fan!! I love putting on your “crochet and chat” videos in the background while I’m doing projects!!! 😁❤️

[@abradley925]

Hii Genna, I am a big fan of your and I have a new pattern idea for you. I lamb!!

[@bettymunguia2136]

Hey there Genna ❤😊

[@ilincaw]

Genna thanks for all of these amazing tips. Although makeup is my passion and this is my makeup KZbin channel I love crocheting so much I can’t stop crocheting and mostly your patterns. ❤ anyways when you offered free shipping in your products did you add the shipping price to the price of the product? Shipping is so expensive especially when the plushies are bigger too. Thank you. ❤❤Love your channel and your patterns. 🩵🩵🩵

[@hannahplusyarn]

tysm genna!!

[@LittleCrochetMoments]

Hi, I'm also a fellow crochet lover (started my yt channel just in October) what patterns will u sell on Etsy? Will u also make KZbin videos/tutorials? *small businesses should stick together* 🥰

[@hannahplusyarn]

@ hii :D idk if i will make yt videos…maybe in the future :) but for now i’m going to at least start out with made-to-order plushies and keychains on my soon-to-be etsy!! i’m still figuring out the details, going to try and open in january!!

[@Midnightcrochet]

Hi Genna!

[@crochetbygenna]

heheh hello!! :)

[@taylorjohnson441]

Ive started a small crochet business about 4 months ago and I havent gotten any attention other than my friends which is okay I know its going to take time. I kind of have anxiety about when my business does become popular though, it takes me quite a while to get products done, how do you keep up with the demand? I have tons of time to crochet I just feel like it takes me longer than most. Even at one order a day I dont know if I have the pace to keep up

[@Drink_waater]

You sound so sweet! Many sellers don't take commissions and instead list the products they've already made. That way you'll be less stessed and never feel like you're behind. Hope that helps!

[@taylorjohnson441]

@ thats a really good idea! Thankyou so much 🥹

[@LittleCrochetMoments]

I feel u girl! Keep up the good work! What products are u mainly making? 😊 I just started my crochet business KZbin channel and I'm struggling w making enough videos and getting enough time to crochet... But I won't give up yet, I think (and hope) after the first year or so it'll take off a bit more! 🛫

[@sandracarpenter144]

❤❤❤

[@wennywiyandari14-cws]

Do you think labeling the product would be important? Especially for small one, as of my opinion it would be disturbing, kindly advise. Really inspiring video, thanks!

[@nikkihamilton8951]

Was afraid of failure or afraid of missing out aka famo, I don't know what direction from here?! I was at small business I worked at?! Who knows possible doing at reselling my products?! I am overwhelmed at this time, who knows🎉😢😢

[@conniemiller4693]

Where did you get your Amie tools

[@The.fantasybug]

I made an etsy, haven"t sold a single crochet thing on there. I don't know what I'm doing wrong 😪

[@LittleCrochetMoments]

Hi there, saw your post and curious what products your selling on Etsy? Just started my crochet KZbin channel and planning to also sell on on Etsy when I hv enough time... *crocheters should stick together*😊 /Marie

[@CarlaReyes-jz3lm]

Quien oiga thanks VG 😢🙏😭🥰🌹

[@The-crochxt-girl]

Hi genna❤ I’m also trying to sell my plushies😅 but it’s hard, because I’m gonna make the Same plushies? Can you give some tips?❤

[@LittleCrochetMoments]

Hi I saw I post and I could relate! Just started my KZbin channel and trying mentally to prepare for it to take a while before take off... How's it going we your channel do u thunk? Your videos looks great! 👍😊

[@noahhanna3238]

[@IsabellaByler]

She says it on her website and patterns that she does not allow copyright or seller her patterns.

[@MacCroKnit]

First can we plzz do a collab ❤❤❤

[@crochetbygenna]

Aww hi!! Maybe next year?! I'm booked for the end of this year

[@LittleCrochetMoments]

Hey I checked out your channel and I'm also trying to start a Crochet Business on my KZbin channel! Your videos looks great! Any tips? I just started posting in October and editing takes soon long for me 😔

[@IsabellaByler]

What is the best platform to sell on and get business? I am on Facebook Marketplace, my own Shopify website, and a Tic-Tok. I put most of my stuff on Facebook Marketplace. It isn't working how it was in June and July. What would you recommend to do?

[@crochetbygenna]

I’d say try to pivot to Shopify and really focus on marketing it! ❤️

[@IsabellaByler]

@@crochetbygenna thank you! I will try that out!
