Pretty much one problem. Oversaturation.
Compeition is killing me. However, You gentlemen just sparked an idea. Perhaps a way to stand out. I shall give it go!
Go For It!
Please come back and let those of us who’ve seen your comment! Sincerely! I am a past tense five star shop ex Etsy seller!
Me too saturated no views despite updates news listings and using the everbee extension 😢
Wish you luck go for it.
It was called “Things Remembered.” The shop wasn’t remembered by me for decades, until you mentioned it. 😀
so..."things forgotten" ? haha
@@brandcreators yes, exactly! 😅
Thanks, Gentlemen! I'm a wildlife artist/photographer, and I've had good luck wholesaling my framed prints and greeting cards to stores, but I really want to learn merchandising my images on my own, online. This may take a minute, but when I have sales while I'm painting I'll be way ahead of driving all over for half the price. Your points made good sense.
As I'm listening to you, I'm wondering if there's such a thing as "collaboration"? If I sell surf shirts or beach themed garments, and I'd like to add surfboards and Etsy has a fantastic shop that makes surfboards and you see your shirts will look great with them. Can I merge with the surfboard shop and make my shirts available in their shop and "drop" the surfboards shop with possibly a mutual discount? If this is possible, can you do a "video" on this?
I am new to Etsy. I started designing for difference niches. Are you saying to open several stores and each one being a different niche? If so, how many stores do they allow you to open?
You can open multiple stores, but you shouldn't be pursuing a bunch of stores all at once. Focus on ONE to start.
@brandcreators Thanks...one niche, one store. Thanks for responding.
This has been extremely helpful!! Thank you so much guys for your expertise and experience🥰
Glad it was helpful!
Any legal issues for starting a new business is a great topic people really truly don't know the law and they have to really struggle through it so any CZcams videos on legal issues and starting a business 😊 would be great
I learn a lot from listening. Since I have to build my own following I’m going to spend time building my product on my own site. Then I’ll duplicate on Etsy. Building my business on Etsy first is risky because it’s not my platform.
As to your first point, of course I clicked on your video because of the “shop name”. Now following you here and Podcast plus I signed up for your emails.
*laughing* I’ve had an Etsy shop for about 5 years with junk in it and little of that, was considering adding “Design” to the name.
🧐😳🙃
As a hairdresser and Salon owner and photographer who also sells online...and I am a huge online buyer.
These are somethings we know in my field
1. Failure to keep customers aka return buyer.
2. Terrible product photos and not enough vital information.
3. Terrible customer service and the gang up mentality. Going into groups and accusing every single customer issue as a scam instead of taking responsibility for errors or inferior product. The I absolutely take no returns people. Big mistake.
4. The biggest issue...the inability to edit their art. The inability to understand what a quality product is. Lack of quality control.
As a photographer we shoot hundreds to find that perfect shot.. that one perfect photo if we can't get it ..we keep trying...
People ship out inferior products. Bad prints, bad designs etc. If they do POD get samples from your vendors! How can you send things out without getting samples?
These are great tips and I had a custom t-shirt but none of my designs- i have been a t-shirt store and even Do they are great designs they are too broad topics ! how can I get emails from other places/app.
Sounds like my marketing 101 class back in college. Guess they thought us right.
They should have taught this :-)
Thank you so much, guys! Really great video with amazing advice.🙌🏻 This was super helpful! 🙏🏻
Glad it was helpful!
I’m wondering if I made a mistake and naming my store something to do with my hair oil that I’m selling and now that I’m selling different things on there from print demand if that’s misleading or confusing I am hearing that you can have something but other things in there so I’m just a little confused on this
Your marketing tips are great for when you already have some sales or views but what about when you are completely new? How do you get people to even start to view your listings and show up higher in search ranks (besides optimizing SEO etc)? The email lists and notifications to people who have favourited, saved your items, etc , only work once you already have some traffic coming to your store. How do you FIRST get that traffic and the views though?
Hey Lydia,
Typically you would be crafting a well optimized listing and running etsy ads to get your first visits and sales
Thank you. This is very helpful as I start my side gig to supplement income.
Glad it was helpful!
How do you get Etsy shoppers on your own email list in the first place???
That's what I was wondering 🤔
Might want to do this video again. Etsy turned off the connection to customers.
Great video guys. Very helpful!!
Great information and reminders of the important steps I need to revisit.
Glad it was helpful!
I am trying to sell my bookmarks but they are different. More fantasy/ weird. I know that they are good, but even if I put things in my Etsy shop I don’t get five views. I am going to watch your videos again, to see what I am missing.
I am brand new….my idea for my shop name that I am JUST starting is Soy Wick Inspirations. My focus is soy candles (from Printify) but the designs are all Bible verses and uplifting sayings.
Would you say I could entirely branch out to include other things like wall art, tshirts, bags, etc with the same designs? Or do I need to keep it as candles with that shop name? Just still wrapping my head around all of this. lol
Thanks guys for the motivation! Y’all are constantly inspiring me to grow!
You got this!
Are you 100% sure we can use the customers' emails for our private email list?? I was so sure Etsy considered this illegal. So?
I just realized people use the word strategy in place of marketing and that confuses people creating a fantasy when in fact marketing is long term strategy is. What then?
Working on updating my Etsy page. You guys are invaluable. I have to ask though, what are the best speakers????
The best speakers for what use?
I'm behind on watching your videos because I just found you. I have run my business locally keeping busy doing businesses promotional items, which I didn't get into this for, lol. I love design. So, I have a niche I want to do but a brand name that's a little different, basically it doesn't scream what I'm doing. Is that a horrible idea?
Thanks for commenting :-) Your brand name doesn't HAVE to scream what you do, but it does help people know who you are serving.
Listing digital wall art designs. I get about 3% conversion rates and about 10 views per listing per month. My business plan is to get to 400 listings, so based on my metrics so far that would be 120 sales per month. Once I hit that consistently I would scale to 4000 listings slowly.
I'm from Pakistan, and Etsy isn't available here. Can you help me create an Etsy account using your details? I promise to use it responsibly and ensure full transparency. Please let me know if you're open to discussing this further.
If your general store is not pulling much action, is it too late to turn it into a niche store? Or...should you just create a second shop?
It's never too late. If you want to turn it into a niche store, I'd suggest starting by looking at what you have already that has given you some success and consider niching down to the people those products serve.
@brandcreators awesome. So I just let other listing delete themselves right? I mean when it's time for renewal. I want to turn my store into space/astronaut/galaxy references
Could you please create the video even the short one about the Categories, for example: gift boxes, what to specify there? If this box includes birthday items , journal, candle, mug and blanket, how to choose the right category. Huge Thank you for all your hard work and information!!!!!

Why cant I just open a shop that focuses on novelty mugs.. why cant mugs be my niche? I did think of opening a physical store doing this. There is a local shop near me that just stocks novelty cushions and seems to be doing well in the real world. I want to upload around 2k listings of my own designs I would just like to see how popular my designs are, see how sales go, I would be happy with a regular 300 sales per month. If I was pulling in 2k net profit per month that would do for me. Am I doomed? Or is this realistic?
Products are not a niche, products are what people in a niche buy.
There's nothing inherently wrong with creating a product-based store, it's just substantially harder to achieve any sort of success when you're using the throw spaghetti at a wall or trend chasing approach that's required for success and you're only focused on one type of product
I have subscribed to your podcast
awesome
Hi. I am just wondering if its ok to have more than one P.O.D company's products in my etsy shop? This would be so i could offer more diversity of products in my niche. Or am I asking for trouble if customers order two products and they arrive in separate packages at different times, due to two different suppliers sending them out? Any tips or advice on this would be appreciated. Thankyou for your videos! :-)
put the information in your description and policies.
@@maryjames5039 thanks. Ive since decided to go ahead with two separate companies, and yes, this is good advice, thankyou. I will write it down in my checklist of tasks, which is growing as long as my arm, but its all gotta be done. Thanks again
I've had no problems using multiple POD companies for my products. When I send out my initial thank you email to my customer I let them know that their items will be arriving separately and I give them the estimated date of shipping or arrival for each item.😊
Im so greatfull that I found you channel! You given out so many gems but more important, clear out my doubts & confirm my plan even if Im running two faild stores. Thanks! One frustration is why Etsy only has 20 sections?
You are so welcome!
There was actually a time they only had 10 sections. I think the reasoning was too many sections was too overwhelming to customers.
would charging a monthly fee to run a store etsy change the playing field while not causing Etsy a loss?
I don't understand your question.
Haha linkin park... ugh RIP CHESTER. BTW I Have a Etsy store , not selling like I would og hoped. Im thinking doing digital now
This is great info! I have a general shop with 4 or 5 different sub niches. I am not getting the sales I should after a year and 1,100 listings. But I'm not giving up. Would it be better to start fresh or try to reorganize my current shop and pivot?
If you're not getting ANY sales, you may want to look at the existing listings you ahve to see if there is ANY demand for them.
If you are getting a few sales, just not as many as you want, I would reposition the store around the subniche that's leading to most of the sales and go from there.
Good info on marketing so question becomes so we need a degree?
Nope.
My niche is flowers, general store, I know is not going to work watching your videos. I am niching down this, see it's a good one

Etsy is basically a ponzi scheme. Their earning is the shop fees you pay for posting. I was there as well with unique leather handmade items. Never sold a thing and few views. They wat your posting money. From that Etsy lives. That is their business model.
Hey i have one question... If i have 100 list christmast svgs who will sell now in 3 months... What with this 100 lists when january come? You put lists on hold or u run all year? Tnx
No reason to not let them run all year!
How do you backwards engineer. If I want to make $2000 a month how do I figure out everything else?
How much profit would you shoot for on each sale(we use $10), which would mean you would need 200 sales to reach that number
Can you please enable the closed captions?
sadly no. With a live stream you have to wait until youtube full processes it. Once that is done, then captions become available. Typically is seems to take about a day.
I have a niche, I have a website, I have an email list. I'm REALLY trying to make this work. I might order your "Audit My Shop". You guys always motivate me so thank you for that :)
Glad to hear it!
This other guy said that we should only ad one listing a day when we are starting out. scott: Do you agree with this?
What other guy?
@@brandcreators Someone on youtube. Please will you answer my question
@@brandcreators it's the channel called Etsy Consultant. That guy recommends doing only 1 listing per day for new shops.
@@user-cg5lo4zy6f you should've just said who, otherwise you are putting forth an unsubstantiated claim that can't be checked.
way too many word. get to the point quicker
15 minutes in and haven’t heard any key points. Too much talk about what everyone already knows. Get to your point not just love the sound of your voice fellas…
