Started my design shop on Etsy a month ago with no experience other then my 20yrs of design and am so grateful for all of your videos!, your a godsend for new shops like me. Your the embodiment of the phrase “pay it forward” thanks Dylan!!!
SO glad to hear! My goal is to make this information accessible to everyone. If you'd help, reach out here: dylanjahraus.com/contact
My first Etsy store got me 11 sales in 10 months and most of them were from very cheap products so you can't call it a big thing. I decided to use all I learned during that year and open a second Etsy store to start from scratch, and poom: my first sale arrived after just one week, and many others followed. Really this is a long journey but I'm glad for all the professionals who share their knowledge so we can all improve.
So glad you're finding success! If you need any help with Etsy, feel free to reach out on IG: @DylanJahraus, just let me know that you came from the youtube comments or schedule a free call with us so we can show you the process we'd recommend.

@@dylanjahrauswhat tool Can I use to find out tags top sellers are using
Dylan! I just wanted to let you know that I watched a video on the way to write the titles and it freaking made so much sense. Now it took me to go to my titles and update I did a lot of them. Very interesting to see that I started seeing more action on two items already and surprisingly enough even the target type of client 😮 which wow 🤩! Thanks I wanted you to read this and know I appreciate so much all the nuggets of gold you give us
Happy to help! If you need any coaching reach out! IG @DylanJahraus

Nice to see a face behind your voice. I’ve been listening to all your podcast in my car. I love your style and love that you get straight to the point. Thank you
So glad to have you here!!
I started a new shop with unique products and I got three sales in the first week. It still feels like a huge mountain to climb! I have a digital store making steady sales too, but the profile margin is not as high, so it is slower. You are the BEST Etsy account on CZcams. I have learned so much from you!
That is awesome! I'm so glad to hear that! If you ever need guidance definitely reach out!!
@@dylanjahraus I will!
Hi! What type of digital products do you sell?

Thanks!
Thank you so much

So glad that I can help! Thanks for the kind words! If you'd like more info or help, reach out here: dylanjahraus.com/contact
@@dylanjahraus I’ve been binge watching your videos all afternoon. Many many thanks 🙏🏻
Keep the tips coming!! Currently building a digital prints shop, 1 week into it, no sales yet but i wont give up no matter what.
You got this!
No cooking no cleaning motivation !!! ahahha!!
Hahah yes!
been watching your videos for a week now and ive already learned so much in very little time. been applying your advice and tips to my own Etsy shop that ive started a month ago. Got my first out of state order a couple days ago.
Great to hear! If you need any help feel free to reach out!
Good to know there is a payment plan.
Yes! We make it very accessible.
Another FANTASTIC video! you truly are the best Etsy coach out there! I wonder if you have any suggestions or tips coming up on changing listing Title/Descrptions/Tags to adjust to seasons (even if the listing is doing well on sales and views). E.G. An item that has Christmas on the title but can definitely be used for Valentines or Mother's Day. Thank You!
Thank you so much! Glad you're enjoying these videos. And that question is something covered in my program actually!
That was my question.. Can you run up a sale for 24 hours. And yes it helps. Thanks for answering Dylan!!
Woohoo!
Nice teacher
Many many thanks
Totally off topic - but I LOVE your top!
Thank you, Cindy!!!
@@dylanjahraus You're welcome!
@@dylanjahraus can't get away my eyes from your adorable top too!
Hey Dylan thanks a lot for the very worthy content you dropped so far. I’m from Germany and just opened my (first) Etsy shop. At the very beginning I choose German as my shop language and wasn’t able to change it anymore. Then I made the whole rest of the shop like titel, keywords, description in english. Later I added English as another shop language and automatically translation but as I told you it’s already written in English. Do you think its a problem I choose German as main Shop language und written it in English? Kind regards Kai
It's hard to say without seeing your shop, but feel free to reach out if you're interested in coaching! IG @DylanJahraus
What are the 7 types of products each Etsy Seller should have mentioned @ 2:50 ?
This is actually a lesson within my program!
So here’s a question I don’t think I’ve seen anyone address: I’ve had an Etsy store since 2010. I started selling custom jewelry. Since then I have tried so many other products both handmade and POD. My question is, what are your thoughts on a store having multiple unrelated items vs a store that basically has variations on one product (i.e. wedding planners)? My store has an okay sales volume for the customer to see, a 5-star rating and good reviews - I feel that if I open another store dedicated to one product range I am going to give up that good ranking I have and I just don’t know if it will be worth it.
You can always turn the order number off under your shop name as a new shop too!
I don’t think you can anymore
I missed the IG Q&A, this might be answered; I see a lot of very cool designs on Etsy. EVERYBODY is selling them, and I would love to see these in my store. But I want to be a little better about original designs. Is it worth it to do designs that everyone is already doing with pod? Thanks!
It depends how you want to run your business. That's a much more product centric way vs. customer centric way and it can get you into a cycle of always "chasing" best sellers and other people's successful listings. I personally don't recommend it!
When making a digital planner is that something I can print out to make a physical planner?

A lot of facebook groups are now banning any sales or marketing. Do you just try to find groups that don't? Thank you for all your videos!
There are certainly groups out there that still work out but yes Facebook does have its limits if not used properly !
I opened a shop two weeks ago. So far I only have five sales. I was wondering when I should start an LLC?
It's never too soon to start an LLC! If you want more personalized guidance reach out!
Could you send me information on your course how much and how much would payments be
I have two options for it! I'd be happy to share more if you can reach out on IG @DylanJahraus or email team@dylanjahraus.com
For the Facebook group marketing at 3:09 I don't see what kind of groups joining. Most of them are group with huge sellers presence. Everybody is posting their shops but where are the buyers ? Can you elaborate on that strategy ? What is the best practice when using FB for promotion ?
That's actually part of what I teach my students! If you'd like more info on that reach out here: dylanjahraus.com/contact
Hi Dylan, I don't see the link for your Pinterest video. Can you post it? thanks!
Yes! czcams.com/video/RUTq4IOlxk4/video.html

@dylanjahraus I think you are a real rebel. Anti-gatekeeper. And for that I thank you for your whole existence🙏🙏🙏
I really appreciate that!!
when you say, you should be driving traffic from facebook, instagram, pinterest you mean by running ads ?
Please reach out to me on IG and I would be happy to talk to you more about this :) @DylanJahraus
also I had checked out your website as I was planning to take a session how can I see prices?@@dylanjahraus
please hear me out.
Is there any source for having a mentor for someone who is dead end broke and from somewhere they can live on 5 dollar a day?
What i simply try to ask is that can we have a mentor who can provide cheaper course.
100$ is a price we get paid for a month working at a private company.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
I would recommend CZcams and podcasts! It will take quite a bit longer than having a mentor or a course to follow, but there's a lot of information online!
