I just started and have 50 items. Lots of views, no sales. I appreciate what you’re saying. I’ve tried these things…we will see. This definitely killed my listing
This killed my listing - having craptastic mockup images when I first started my Etsy store almost a year ago. Thankfully I’ve gotten better by doing my research and studying. World of difference 😂
A very informative video Heather, thank you! I've purchased mockups from an Etsy seller that I didn't realise were AI generated until I received them. They're unusable because the white shirt colors are too bright and my designs look fake on them.
This killed my listing - i have a started my POD business and I have based mine on only 1 specific design (I draw it and put relatable quotes) I thought it will be super fun not until I watched all of your videos🤣 I realized researching first will save me time working on the things that will never sell, so I’m trying to research more first and so I can start again with better knowledge.
This killed my listing - I bought a digital product and rebrand the listing cover and photos but not the file that has all the info on it so before i open an Etsy account do i list it as i did it or someone else? I will watch more of your videos as im new to this and after 2 of your videos i already see that i made some mistakes. I want to thank you for your time by helping us with all the great advice you are giving us. I saved, like and subscribe.
To make sure I understood you correctly. If my listings were top sellers and are no longer selling, I should create new listings? Then, do I delete/inactive the original listings?
I just started my Etsy shop this month and no sales yet. Upon hearing your tip of not using AI mock-ups, I became very sad. If I understood you correctly, that means that I need to purchase a sample of all my listings so I can take real pictures of them? I’m only selling POD products. I cannot afford that. If this is the case, I’ll need to shut down my shop :(
Congrats to starting your Etsy shop this month - that's sometimes the hardest part!!🙌 As far as no AI mockups, this does not mean you have to order sample. I recommend using real-life photo mockups that are from mockup shops that take their own pictures and do not create with AI. Examples of these are Moonlit Mockups, Dolly Mocks, MoneyMakerMockups. These shops I have used as examples of real photos of the products. Hopefully this helps and way to go on starting this month!💕
i'm new on Etsy started a month ago, i'm selling digital backdrops and photoshop things all digital. so far i've got 4 sales. All my listing are clear and nicely put together. My prices are also low. I haven't run adds yet. I have 32 items in my shop. How do i get more sales? I have a variety of things in my shop. I saw a TH-cam video that said you should have a variety in your shop
Hi Heather! Your videos are very helpful! I dont sleep without watching 1 of your videos a day! 😅 Should we deactivate the listings that are not selling? Would it affect our store when we deactivate listings?
Aww! This comment made me smile, so happy to hear you watch each day and wishing you many cha-chings in the future here! 😊💕 As far as listings go, I personally have a 2 renewal cycle rule on my listings - if a listing renews twice without a sale or seeing profit, then I deactivate the listing. Deactivating listings will not affect your other listings visibility. The only thing you will notice is decrease of visits/views due to less listings. However, if those listings didn't sell then they weren't serving your shop anyways and new listings can always offset the view decrease. Hopefully this makes sense and helps!
This definitely killed my listing! ... BUT ... Honestly, I'm really trying to do EVERYTHING you went over here, and STILL NO SALES! My shop has done a NOSE-DIVE the last 2 months! The ONLY thing that I'm not doing is focusing on a certain niche. My shop is somewhat of a "General Store." I've only been doing this about a year and a half and I thought it might be wise to try several different things just to see what works, and what doesn't. I guess that probably isn't very wise ... 'cause it just AIN'T working! ☹
Hi Heather, if my listings aren’t selling after 30 days of running ads, is it worth Re-doing the SEO of the listing using tools like erank and everbee and then run ads on this listing again?Apart from this, how often should I tweak the SEO of my listing?
Thanks Heather! So what do you suggest for someone just starting out who cannot buy a bunch of samples for pictures? This definitely killed my listing.
Thanks, Heather. As a new seller, I so appreciate your assistance. Do you have any coupons for any of the recommended sites you have mentioned? Thank you.
When you say do a new listing when one hasn't sold are you talking about deleting that listing or copying it and changing SEO or delete that listing all together and not worrying about keeping that design at all?
I've had my shop for 2 months now and no sales! I've been playing with my pricing as I regularly run sales (like at least every other week) and when the sales run I would only make pennies in profit. Is it better to have no sales and just keep the price point low to build up that bit of trust?
Adding a small circle image in the main photo is still flagged as a collage. I have two I did that and have the "Improve listing alert' on my dashboard.
@@builderburns But wouldn’t you photograph it before you list it so you don’t have to buy it? Or in the case of POD you’d buy it directly from the service? I buy samples from Printify at cost.
I purchased mockups on Etsy, thinking they were human models only to discover they were AI generated, which was not listed in the description. Such a bummer.
All the advice that is given is only about tshirts and mugs....🙄😣 As a photographer i find it frustrating....Well i do what you advised, and I still have no sales.
AI is the future, it's not really going away, While it may feel "NEW" to shoppers, this idea that somehow AI thumbnails should be replaced with ONLY natural images. Forgive me but that sounds quite absurd. Perhaps we are in a transitional period but eventually, All you will see everywhere is AI images for EVERYTHING! As the technology becomes more familiar to consumers, they will learn that it's not something to be afraid of, but rather embraced.
Hey Heatherstudio! Love your content! I’m a pro thumbnail designer, and I'd love to create custom, eye-catching thumbnails to boost your clicks and views. Let me know if you're interested!

Yes! I feel like most of us sellers take a second to find the better mockups for our shop that convert better. Thanks for watching! ❤
Heather, your voice and tone is engaging. This is my first time to attend your live session. I loved it ❤.

I have the same question!
Thanks, Heather. As a new seller, I so appreciate your assistance. Do you have any coupons for any of the recommended sites you have mentioned? Thank you.
I do drop shipping and print on demand and have used placit for mockups. Is this not a good idea. I also make handmade silver jewelry.
This definitely killed my listing! ❤
Thanks for watching! ❤️
Thank you so much, Heather! And...this definitely killed my listing. :-)
When you say do a new listing when one hasn't sold are you talking about deleting that listing or copying it and changing SEO or delete that listing all together and not worrying about keeping that design at all?
Loved the video. How do I contact Etsy to find out why Etsy canceled a customer order?
This definitely killed my listing!
Thanks for watching! ❤️
This definitely killed my listing…..although I don’t have any listings yet 😂 just doing research.

looking for a video on fonts and font combos
This definitely killed my listing.
Thanks for watching! ❤️
How do you get a real photo mockup if you aren’t allowed to buy your own products?
This sucks, what’s the instance in which you’re not allowed?
@ I think all instances because it generates inauthentic traffic for the algorithms
@@builderburns But wouldn’t you photograph it before you list it so you don’t have to buy it? Or in the case of POD you’d buy it directly from the service? I buy samples from Printify at cost.
This definitely killed my listing
Thanks for watching! ❤️
This definitely killed my listing ❤
Is that ok to you AI generated images at all? Can I add it as just one of the photos, not the main one?
Thank you 😊
This killed my listings 😊
Etsy screwed my accounts and cross listed them. I spent 8 months trying to solve this. I give up!
This definitely killed my listing!😞
This killed my listing. Priced too high to start
This definitely killed my losting...
My listing killed definitely this
😂
Be the Conch.
I purchased mockups on Etsy, thinking they were human models only to discover they were AI generated, which was not listed in the description. Such a bummer.
what shop?
I had the same problem
