  • If you guys have noticed, I rarely make any CZcams videos about TikTok or Instagram Reels which I know are super trending right now.
    The reason for that is because I don’t use them for any of my businesses.
    And you know what?
    I can still make a combined million dollars in sales across all of my businesses every year.

    I'm a crochet and knitwear designer & maker. You said everything I feel and struggle with on the marketing side. I definitely learned long ago, going the social media route has not been beneficial for my time or business in the way that most CZcamsrs promote.

    Love this video. I have always been a believer in owning your audience. I’m not a fan of social media and I don’t like someone else having control over sees my content. I’ve seen too many people get their accounts shut down. I would rather spend my time building my email and text subscriber lists.

      Hi Zebrano! Great question! Yes. It will be easier to direct audience in your own website rather than an eCommerce marketplace like Etsy where there are a lot of other sellers.

    Can you tell me please. Is there any way to create addresses to which you can order goods by subscriptions? For example, the product is sold only 6 pieces at one time by subscription, where you can create boxes, or maybe some other way? Thanks in advance)
