Man, I hear you talking about low sales, I'd be delighted if my POD shop was getting those low numbers that you talk about. Right now, $900 a month would be a great momentum starter for me, and could keep me building. I think I have a good design sense but I can't really know because not enough eyeballs on product. A handful of views a day is all I am I getting. I admit I have struggled to sprint because I am learning so many new things at once to make this work, but I love creating designs, and building a shop.

I'm trying to understand it as well, but I think they're similar avenues but just looking at it from a different perspective. Maybe. I don't know. Like instead of just focusing on a specific type of item that is selling, like an organizer calendar for stay at home parents, look at what all stay at home parents need and tailor to that?

I’m not doubting you in any way…I love you information and the more relatable, humorous side you have allowed yourself to show lately. Just curious if I were making the call to you -would I have to change EVERYTHING from a POD shop? Would I have to be buying inventory or using international dropshipping that can take up to 30 days and most customers will drive you crazy daily wondering where their order is or why haven’t they received their tracking yet. You know the ppl I am talking about and it’s valid. Ty

And how can I write the full name of my product in the listing tags - Christmas card mock-up ??? if the number of characters allowed is 20 symbols and the system does not allow me to write it, then what should I write there???? all sorts of thirds that have nothing to do with christmas card mockup???

I agree with most of what you said, with the exception of talking about types of 'stores'. You mention Niched stores and, very condescendingly, General stores. What you fail to realize is that, 99.99% of the time the type of store makes absolutely ZERO difference to your buyer! They aren't going straight to a store when they come to Etsy. They are doing a keyword search for the type of ITEM they're looking for. So, niching down on the ITEM/LISTING, and targeting the buyer for that item is ALWAYS the right way to go. Where your be 'fancy' for the 'fancy' people technique comes in to play is, if they are looking for other things that your LISTING aesthetic plays to, they MAY click into your store and buy more. Maybe. I'd say most Etsy buyers won't even know what to click on to get in to your store proper.

I hear what you're saying! Ultimately, it's all about targeting the right audience with the right item. Whether it's a niche store or a general one, what matters most is capturing the attention of buyers searching for specific items.

I have added a couple of things to the long list of things I need to do in order to hopefully start turning a profit in my Etsy POD store, but I don't believe that you don't need to 'chase' a niche.
