I am a new seller on Etsy in 2024. Out of all the million video’s I watched, I can say that this video makes most sense & realistic. Thanks for sharing. I have subscribed to You as well.. 😊
I have been on Etsy for only 2 years. First-year did about $30,000... This year just under $100,000. I never knew that there were Alt tags for images. That is crazy. Something so simple I missed all this time until I saw your video. Learned a lot with this video... going to create a new (3rd) shop... I will be putting this to work to see what happens... and will advise. Thanks for taking the time to put out your videos. They are helping sellers new and seasoned.
wow! Lets face it, you didn't exactly lose out by not using alt tags. How on earth does anyone make a living on here. I've followed advice, I've researched, i've seen stuff sell that even I can't get my head around. Still not getting sales.
@@DameHoracia I wonder the same thing! I have an Etsy shop for 2 yrs now. And I researched about SEO and use Pinterest & social media and my annual income is only $1,500! That to me is realistic for someone like who’s clueless about running a shop on Etsy. Anyone who succeeds right away have either one of the following: experience in digital marketing, has a marketing or business background, or social media savy! You must be knowledgeable one way or another! Cuz man it is hard to grow your shop! 😩
Love you sir, I was literally on my bed crying because I thought my incompetence was the reason my Etsy store wasnt doing so well. I now understand that I just need time.
i had made my first etsy store selling tees about two weeks ago, I am writing this in august. i am so happy to have watched your videos as I have followed and executed what you have said. although I still haven't made any sales I am aware of the dry season however my views and visits to my store have gone up considerably and has given me faith to continue. thanks allot
I opened my shop jan 2 with 60 listings. Made my first sale 2 days later. I add anywhere from 3 to 10 listings per day. Now it’s Feb 6 and I’ve made 75 sales and I have about 130 unique listings up. I’m constantly adding more which is very time consuming because each item is unique and can only be sold once. I HAVE been running ads, $1/day, with the goal to compete with similar shops. I feel secure that my product, photography, videos, and descriptions are top notch. My conversion rate is 2.1%, it would be higher if I lowered my prices, but I’ve decided I will not lower prices until it’s time to renew the listing. None of my listings auto-renew. Revenue for January was around $2500, my actual profit after all the fees and subtracting COGS was about $750. I will say that I put literally every spare moment I had into running this shop, photographing, measuring, writing listings. But I don’t mind the work because I’ve chosen it & no one bothers me and I listen to podcasts and music, or I do listings while also watching dumb TV.
Amazing hard work. I love your commitment and drive. Very inspirational. I only make one off pieces of commissioned jewellery. Some of the pieces are then rejected and so I am looking for my own online shop. Thank you so much.
@@avtarkirtankaur6838 mostly it was the cost of the goods I sold. One thing I sold out of my personal collection, I bought it retail for $750 and I sold it for $850, so that was a big chunk of it. Month two, my revenue was $3,824.97, net profit after fees & shipping was $2,985.53, subtracting out my COGS, the actual profit was $2,138.86.
I was very surprised that the video was THAT informative. Seriously, this is the video where I took a pen and paper and took notes. It's amazing to be able to get this information for free, because in a single video, realistic information that isn't available in many Etsy courses I've invested dollars in. Thanks a lot for your hard work!
Very few people share realistic advice, and you are one of them. Total respect for you. Nothing replaces commitment, persistence, and consistency in building success.
Great information but you said to spend an hour on Etsy and then said just list one item a day! Listing one item doesn’t take an hour so what are we doing in the meantime to take up that hour time on Etsy? You also said to sale things 10.00 and up but I’ve seen a store that had 65,000 sales and she sales digital item and she has alot of items under 5.00 at that price her store is still successful. Sometimes I wonder if listing items at .20 cents each if it’s better to just buy a store from shopify because you get more listings than if you list an item for 20 cents each on etsy😮
Can you do another one of these (the first 3 months).... I have so many questions. It's a great video by the way. I wouldn't mind seeing more followup videos on this very topic. Most people struggle the most with their first 2 weeks.@@etsyconsultant
Thank you for putting out this video. You are brilliant at explaining in a concise and constructive way. DEFINITELY the number one go to guy from now on. THANK YOU
I opened my shop two weeks ago. I am learning how to design, publish, and list items in my store. So far I am loving it and wish I had done this a long time ago. Thank you for the videos I think they are very informational I especially like that I feel you are talking to me not screaming at me like other on here. I look forward to watching and learning more about Etsy. Thank you!
This was great but really shows me how much I don't know. Now I have to go back and scrutinize my listings to see what it is that isn't being done right. First tho - I'll watch every you tube you've got - sure appreciate all the help!
I’ve opened my shop on the Christmas Day. 17 listings already, just missed one day without listing. So far 38 views and 24 visits, no sales. I’m patient waiting and will keep listing almost every day, thanks for the great content!
Opened my Etsy store in June and just created few listings yet. I had not a batch prepared before opening so my listings are growing a bit slowly but I am committed to keep working daily to have enough listings to start making sells. Also felt motivated cause even I have a very few listings I had a couple of favorited items and even that was not even a sale was a huge motivation for me to keep working on my store ❤
You're the only one sharing a realistic and technical approach to this . I'm desinging my digital product for launch . So this video has given me a great road map to work with .
Farhan, I m planning on to start selling printables on etsy. Can you please help me learn where do I begin from. What would I need to do. I would appreciate a conversation with you, if it's possible for you.
I'm thrilled to say that this Etsy beginners video is hands down the best one I've seen on the internet! I can't thank you enough for sharing such valuable information that has helped me understand why my store was suspended multiple times. With this newfound knowledge, I feel confident and empowered to start anew and make the necessary changes for a successful Etsy store. Thank you again for creating such an amazing resource! 🙏😀
Thank you so much for this video. It has been one of the best Etsy guides I have watched out of the 100s I've seen and I feel even more motivated than before with your help. I appreciate you so much for sharing your knowledge and wisdom. You have a new loyal subscriber in me 🙏😊
Thanks for this video! Really enjoyed hearing realistic advice. I started in August and have been listing 1-2 items per day. Thought I was a failure with 44 sales (it's early Oct when I'm posting this comment) because of all the other TH-cam videos that are saying things like "Make $10,000 in your first month on Etsy!". Slow and steady, keeping an eye on what's working well and ditching what isn't, will really win the race.
Thank you for your good advice: as much as it is reassuring, it is realistic and allows you to be prepared. Here is my store that I just remodeled. Old Time Miniature
I've gotten lots of bad advice, this is the best most realistic advice I've gotten since I opened my store 3 months ago. Thank you, I truly appreciate it.
business 101 is promise --> delivery --> exceed expectation / over deliver (even by a tiny bit, psychologically is a big deal). That being said I myself don't always do what I know is the optimal route lol.
I hardly either like or comment on any videos, but I had to leave a thumbs up and comment because I have had a new shop on vacation because I haven't known what to do to make my shop viable. Recently, I have wanted to do something with my shop and these points you have given are so easy about what to do and when, I am very encouraged that I might be successful now. Thank you!
I’m a furniture maker in South Wales, been in business mainly doing commercial work. Always wanted to open an Etsy shop and this video is the best I’ve watched so far! Thanks for the content it’s got me excited about listing my products!
Good guide, this is very useful info. I've been in Etsy for ages and sold only three things ( and one of those was to my son). I've watched lots of videos which peddle the same advice but never as specific as what you've presented here. You've given a step by step plan that is actionable and I'm going to follow that and see what happens. Thank you
I'm just looking at opening an Etsy shop for my art. This was so useful. Thank you. I'm off to watch your other videos now. I don't want to make megabucks, just some extra income here and there as I'm retired. Getting my head round selling is a nightmare for me but you have given me a bit more confidence... wish me luck!
I am just about to setup my Etsy store and have spent literally hours and hours watching different videos to research and get my head around how to best setup and manage and Etsy store. Have to say I learnt more in this 30 minute video than all the other put together. Great content.
@@etsyconsultant Hello Am Daniel, I am passionate free lancer and Etsy expert out to help, I more than willing to help you work on shop and rank your products to the maximum optimization so as make as much sale as possible. Let me know you reply so to get started. Because Etsy is a very competitive digital marketing place.
Hi Nick! Thought of sending you an update on my Etsy store. I’ve been putting up one listing a day as per your advice. I’ve been doing that for the past 10 days. I just checked today that my store have 14 views so far. No ads whatsoever, just doing what you’re telling us. No sales yet but just knowing I have a bit of traffic really motivates me!! Thank you!!
In 2018-19 I had a Etsy shop making decals & shirts. I made my first sale on my bday, I'll never forget that! I made just over 1,000 sales in my first year. It all happened so fast that I didn't really realize & appreciate how well I was actually doing. It didn't take long for folks to start stealing my original artwork & selling it cheaper than me. My sales dropped. I had a case where I got scammed by a buyer & Etsy took their side. I lost the item & my money. I was also working full time outside my home at the time & it got to the point where my Etsy store felt like work...like a chore, rather than my once beloved passion. I was burnt out & discouraged. Then covid hit. After so many blows all at once, I gave it up.... Now I'm a stay at home mama to a toddler & I've been dying to get back into selling on Etsy! I have so many new designs (that I'm definitely going to watermark & protect alot better this time!) I'm really appreciative of all your videos here on TH-cam! ❤ You're awesome!
@@serendipidy watermarks on every image you upload, even your mock up images. I use photoshop to to add my watermarks & make them the lowest quality Etsy recommends (2k pixels wide). I even tried to "steal" my own artwork by then taking those photos into photo shop & trying to clean it up. My watermark was still visible. Now can people upload it to procreate & trace my artwork? Probably, but I don't think there's any way to stop someone that dedicated to stealing someone's design. But the watermarks and/or a copyright warning usually keeps thieves away.
This is really excellent! Thank you for sharing high-quality information. The 30+ minutes I spent watching it is truly worth it. Thank you for your generosity.
Thanks so much, I was getting a little discouraged watching videos from people telling the negatives about Etsy. How foolish of me to watch more than one of those videos as someone about to start up. You have mentioned a couple things like: video, product in use, it's normal to not sell anything in the first weeks, don't use etsy adds, don't make more than 20 of one item to begin with. These things really made some lightbulbs go off and/ or put my mind at ease. Thank you! Subscribed!
Thank you again. Another helpful video. I watched the 10 minute SEO video and shared it with my daughter. My daughter and I are collaborating with my Etsy shop. She does the designing and drawing. I do the mockup preparation and we both work on the writing, etc. have a lot to still work on and your videos are extremely helpful. Thank you again! 😊
Thank you soo much for your information. I was intimidated a lot, but now I am happy to go on with my sweet little etsy-shop, it is 1 week old and a baby. But it is so much fun to create and built up my listings. ♡
Wow I wish I’d seen this video when I first started but that’s ok now I can see where I need work and how I can make small changes to be more successful. Thank you so much!
Thanks for this. I was becoming disheartened because all the videos I've seen until now have said how easy it is to make money with digital products. You are the only one telling the truth.
Thank you so much for this video! It’s a pity I haven’t seen it before I’ve opened my shop but I’ll still try to implement your advices. Hope it’ll work 🤞🏻🤞🏻 thank you!
Just opened my Etsy store. Thank you for the great tips! Some of them I knew, others were new. :) Did something wrong with my first listing, so I have to learn the hows' of online stores. A whole new world to me.
Great video. I gave up on my store a month in and took a break now I'm back and determined to make it work' it's very slow but I am adding more and more stuff (I'm up to over 200 listings) as I continue to try and be more creative. I definitely need to add more personalized items in my store though
- great tips for niche dropshipping boutiques let alone Etsy! Great video - gem tips on listing your first 100 - yes you have to go in stages and test as you go. Don’t think I’ve heard anyone talk about this ever!! 🎉😅super video!
Thank you so much for this video! This provided me the motivation I needed to continue growing my Etsy Shop. No Sugar coating, just straight advice and tips. Thanks!
I'm so glad I found your channel. I'm grateful for the truthfully detailed, step by step instructions you give. Now I can truly put my Etdy Store plan together and follow what you've taught. Thank you so very much.
This video was SO helpful for us! We opened our shop about a month ago so this speaks loads to us. I feel like we can let go of some of the stress we were feeling about low sales and use that energy toward uploading daily and preparing for the fall/winter. Thank you so much!!
Excellent Etsy tutorial! 👏👏 This goes beyond the ordinary tutorial of the mechanics of setting up an Etsy store and getting SEO analytics. This is more about the proper mindset to building a successful Etsy store. I love the 10 at a time publishing approach until you get to a hundred listing. You're taking the Kaizen approach of constant improvement which I vey much appreciate. Just starting my store so I can't really show you just yet but later I would love to have you critique my efforts!
Hi there, thanks for your feedback. Feel free to contact me if you would like to book a store critique: etsy-consultant.com/services/30-minute-etsy-store-critique/
Very insightful video! Great information and advice! Thank you. I opened my Etsy store in December, but since then not much happened, although I admit I haven't done it right. I will follow your tips and strategies and I know that way will be successful because I know I have beautiful and unique designs but I just don't know how to run the store properly. I know it's a lot of work and commitment. Thank you again for sharing so much valuable information!
I am ready to jump in to Etsy. I've seen a lot of videos but this is the best. In fact one guy YT keeps suggesting is just trash. Looking forward to watching your other videos. Thank you!
I have been on Etsy for years, with two different shops, never committed, did okay, but never did great. I’ve just opened a third store and your video, which I happened upon accidentally, has not only motivated me to do this shop with excellence, but to also resurrect my other two (currently empty) shops with excellence as well. Happy New Year to me! And to you and yours as well! Thank you for sharing your brilliant insight in such a concise, clear and user-friendly manner!
Thank you for sharing such valuable content. I opened my store last weekend and this video is just gold for me. I'm going to follow all your tips. Let's see what happens 🤞
Very clear and concise. Absolutely helpful. Thank you. Watched alot on this topic, and this is refreshing and full of smart advice, all in one video. At the end of the video, I particularly liked hearing about enjoying the process. You're SEO in 10 minutes was extremely helpful and got beyond the confusion and mystery, much of which is peddled via online business SEO which I've never trusted so much. New starter, about the open, confirmed my decisions and focused on improving and articulating my product far more accurately. Thank you again.
By far, The best tutorial about opening an Etsy store!. Im not a tech savvy person ( 70 yrs and self taught lol), but love creating. Thank you for a clear and honest video. Very valuable for beginners.
I've started publishing on January 1st every day my digital products and, as you said, it's hard work. I started to be disappointed because I don't have a lot of traffic yet, but you're right. I have to be patient and keep publishing. (I'm just brand new!!) I have about 30 more products ready to publish, but you're right, I have to see what is working to know what to design. So I will lower a little bit on designing and keep more time on Etsy watching, observing and researching. I found your videos logical, practical and most of all, very useful. Thanks a lot!
I follow your channel for a while now. It seems that I came across you a little bit late. I opened my photographic store in October last year. In my first phase (without any previous knowledge) I put bit over 100 item to my physical wall print shop. At the beginning I use a lot SM too. Since the moment I found you channel I change completely strategy and also store design. First I decided to split my shop into to sections physical print and digital one. Than I stopped SM and started to focus on SEO, general design and one day new listing formula. In October I had around 160 visits to my shop, next month in Noviembre i reached almost 190, in December I hit over 320 and I sold two digital files in Xmas time. January started again bit slowly, 81 visits so far, so 8 visits per day roughly. I am not in rush with my store, I know that product I sell is very personal and definitely not high demand. I will keep with one day listing strategy until I reach 220 item in my store so, few more days and than I want list one photo each second or third day to keep regular routine going. I am not sure if my statistic numbers are correct or if I do everything right, but I try follow you advice. Big thanks for sharing your experience with us.
Thanks you so much to solve so much questions I confusing about, you are the best youtuber talking about etsy I ever met. Information so dense and practical even more than I am in the university. Happy to hearing your toturial as I just begin the etsy as an architect student's part time work. Cheers!
Being patient is hard for me. I run ads right away after listed the items because I have validated niches & optimized listings(have good title, tags, description & video). I run the ads for about 1 month, turn off those that don't sell & continue the ads for the selling items. I've been on Etsy since November 2022. For November, the revenue already covered all the fees & got a little profit, so I don't have to use my own money to pay for anything. It was the same for December, thanks to Q4 season & it was part of my plan in 2022 to open Etsy shop during Q4. For January so far, my Etsy Finance balance is already positive. My initial aim for running ads was to get those sales count quickly & gain the data. I was ready to invest for the costs, but turned out the revenue itself can cover the fees so I'm happy. Now, my focus is to get my shop to 1000 listings within this year based on the data & statistics that I have. My shop is selling digital products, so it has a streamlined process-research, create & list.
Halo, been on etsy for a few months now but haven't generated any sales yet and I was kind of feeling discouraged but after I watched your video about tags & description in 10mins and after following your advice my traffic views increased & that alone boosted my spirit. Thank you so much, will definitely watch your other videos.
My wife and I (both in our 60's😊) are considering selling on Etsy in 2024 and I agree with @looserwish below "Out of all the video’s I watched, I can say that this video makes most sense & realistic. Thanks for sharing. I have subscribed to You as well.. 😊"
Thanks so much for the video. I've had a store for a while but taking it in a different direction recently as my previous products had too many factors that made them not really any good for making any money (supplier reliability, increased cost, amount of time it took to set up and make one item). My shop is called Huntington Moo. Looking forward to seeing other shops here as I'm always looking for gifts for my loved ones
I just saw your video, a week after I started my Etsy store.. Ahjea Dior Baby. Thank you, I learned a lot. I now understand what I need to do. I thought I could only enter 10 items at a time. I plan to go back and watch more of your videos. Thank you.
I came to your channel from Reddit and honestly you're such a breath of fresh air. I love how honest and straight forward you are. So many people try to spin etsy as this passive income but I can't wrap my head around what is passive for them? It takes A LOT of work and I just pushed my store live with some listings this week. Now I have a concrete plan to follow for those 365 listings (cries). I do have several ideas for digital downloads -- are you of the philoshophy to stick with one thing (ex printable art) or try a mix throughout the 365 to see what will get more sales and traffic?
Hi, thanks for being here I appreciate it. In answer to your question, you can have many different digital products but I would advise they all sit under the same niche, EG weddings, or professions or education and so on.
Hi I just watched your video and I’m really glad I did. The step by step you explained really help me to think about my brand and shop and I decided to stripped back and start it again, doing the right things and following your 100 days plan. I’m gonna start now and will let you know how it goes 👍🏻👍🏻
THANK YOU for this video!! The most informative guide I've seen yet. I'm getting ready to open my shop in a few weeks and was so relieved to hear you list my selected niche as a good one! This has given me so much relief to have a guide of things like how often to list items etc. Thank you!
Great video packed with lots of helpful starter beginners information, this will definitely come in handy if I decide to proceed with opening up a new Etsy Shop!
I opened my store on Dec 1st, had 17 sales that month most of them the last two weeks. This month I have 13 sales so far. Thank you so much for this info, I see that I can fix a few things. Do you think is good time to image alt tags? It is a downloadable digital product
Recently opened Etsy store. Like a week ago. Full of Ginger shop is the name. I’m selling wall decor. I think your advice is fantastic and will be following steps!! Thank you!!
Thanks Nick for the insight you shared. Regarding the categories section, in your opinion is it better to use general keywords that have very high competition or specific keywords that are low in competition? Does the naming of the category affect the SEO of each product listing?
Good video. Couple of questions - the 20 listings, is that 20 at a time, or would you recommend 1 a day for 20 days in order to get that daily activity? Or is it 20 at a time, and then each day go in and tinker with verbiage? And, would you recommend setting up an LLC or some other type of structured business?
Hi there thanks for your comment. Slow and steady is the way with Etsy, so 1 a day. With regards to setting up an LLC it all depends on what that entails in your country, ie set up costs, versus what you would gain at this stage.
I just want to make sure I understand. I a have decided it is time to set up Etsy, I currently just have a Facebook page 2 years old but ..that I have consistently posted with a purpose daily since March 1st (what a difference that has made) But back to my question I open store with 20 products and then everyday after opening list 1 new product a day until I reach that 100 mark. Is this correct? Of course analyze along the way to adjust what products are working
Great stuff, I am re-committing to my Etsy business. I have been on for a couple years, for a few months and about 160 listings I need to Start listening again and add to what I already have in the suggestions would be amazing. Geaux Ink Designs is the name of my shop. Just discovered you! Thanks for your common sense approach!
Hi Nick, what would you recomend if you have 300 items in your store, but you started the business in a wong way (not uploading every day, poor seo, low quality foto..) should we open another store and start over or fix everything in the existant store and go from there? Tnx! Great contant video, as always!
@@etsyconsultant Between this and your response to a question of mine on another video, I really think I may need to open a new shop and scrap my secondary one. Can I leave the secondary one up while I build the new one out (for reference purposes)? I have been using your strategies the last two weeks on listings and would hate to lose all that SEO work etc. I also don't want to get in a bind with Etsy though where they flag me for having two shops selling exact duplicate items while I build the new one out.
Hey Nik! I just noticed today that when looking through searches for what's selling, the filter by Bestsellers option has been removed and replaced with a filter by Star Seller option. As you've pointed out in previous videos, Star Seller doesn't necessarily mean a whole lot. What would be your new recommended course of action given this change?
Nick, I just located your TH-cam TODAY (Jan 16, 2023)! I watched this video and your video regarding Etsy SEO In Ten Minutes. Wow, what informative and helpful information. My Etsy has been open a long time and I haven't had the courage or information I needed to really get it open and running. I believe today I have been PUSHED to GO FORWARD. Thank you so much!

Thank you for taking the time. I have not opened my store just finished purchasing materials and will start making soon. I am so looking forward to starting this journey.

Glad it was helpful!
I have been on Etsy for only 2 years. First-year did about $30,000... This year just under $100,000. I never knew that there were Alt tags for images. That is crazy. Something so simple I missed all this time until I saw your video. Learned a lot with this video... going to create a new (3rd) shop... I will be putting this to work to see what happens... and will advise. Thanks for taking the time to put out your videos. They are helping sellers new and seasoned.
What is your store name? That’s awesome
Well done!
Hi I have just started my shop on Etsy and thank you guys for the advice, and I hope I learn more from both of you.
wow! Lets face it, you didn't exactly lose out by not using alt tags. How on earth does anyone make a living on here. I've followed advice, I've researched, i've seen stuff sell that even I can't get my head around. Still not getting sales.
@@DameHoracia I wonder the same thing! I have an Etsy shop for 2 yrs now. And I researched about SEO and use Pinterest & social media and my annual income is only $1,500! That to me is realistic for someone like who’s clueless about running a shop on Etsy. Anyone who succeeds right away have either one of the following: experience in digital marketing, has a marketing or business background, or social media savy! You must be knowledgeable one way or another! Cuz man it is hard to grow your shop! 😩

Love you sir, I was literally on my bed crying because I thought my incompetence was the reason my Etsy store wasnt doing so well. I now understand that I just need time.
Time is underrated.

Amazing hard work. I love your commitment and drive. Very inspirational. I only make one off pieces of commissioned jewellery. Some of the pieces are then rejected and so I am looking for my own online shop. Thank you so much.
what are all the fees that ate so much of your money? Is there a way to avoid them?
@@avtarkirtankaur6838 mostly it was the cost of the goods I sold. One thing I sold out of my personal collection, I bought it retail for $750 and I sold it for $850, so that was a big chunk of it. Month two, my revenue was $3,824.97, net profit after fees & shipping was $2,985.53, subtracting out my COGS, the actual profit was $2,138.86.
I’ve been on Etsy, literally, since it launched. I don’t remember ever seeing so much awesome information in one video/place.
Love it! 💛🙌🏼
Thanks for watching and taking the time to let me know, I appreciate it.
I was very surprised that the video was THAT informative. Seriously, this is the video where I took a pen and paper and took notes. It's amazing to be able to get this information for free, because in a single video, realistic information that isn't available in many Etsy courses I've invested dollars in. Thanks a lot for your hard work!
No problem Ahsen, it is my full time job and I want people to know that I am the real deal.
Very few people share realistic advice, and you are one of them. Total respect for you. Nothing replaces commitment, persistence, and consistency in building success.
Hi Shane, you are absolutely right!
Great information but you said to spend an hour on Etsy and then said just list one item a day! Listing one item doesn’t take an hour so what are we doing in the meantime to take up that hour time on Etsy? You also said to sale things 10.00 and up but I’ve seen a store that had 65,000 sales and she sales digital item and she has alot of items under 5.00 at that price her store is still successful.
Sometimes I wonder if listing items at .20 cents each if it’s better to just buy a store from shopify because you get more listings than if you list an item for 20 cents each on etsy😮
Can you do another one of these (the first 3 months).... I have so many questions. It's a great video by the way. I wouldn't mind seeing more followup videos on this very topic. Most people struggle the most with their first 2 weeks.@@etsyconsultant
In shopify, there is no traffic is your store but, you have advertised, bring your own customers, marketing, and pay each month at least $29.
Thank you for putting out this video. You are brilliant at explaining in a concise and constructive way. DEFINITELY the number one go to guy from now on. THANK YOU
Glad it was helpful!
I opened my shop two weeks ago. I am learning how to design, publish, and list items in my store. So far I am loving it and wish I had done this a long time ago. Thank you for the videos I think they are very informational I especially like that I feel you are talking to me not screaming at me like other on here. I look forward to watching and learning more about Etsy. Thank you!
Hey Rich, you're most welcome!
Hi Rich.
Can you also help me learn how to design and sell printables on etsy?
2 years on Etsy, I’ve never come across such a valuable video! I learned a bunch of things, subscribed! Thanks a lot man!
No problem at all, good to have you here.
This was great but really shows me how much I don't know. Now I have to go back and scrutinize my listings to see what it is that isn't being done right. First tho - I'll watch every you tube you've got - sure appreciate all the help!
Hi Debbie, Thank you for your kind words. Good luck!
I have never seen someone sound so genuine talking about this and helping out.
Hi there, that's very kind, thanks.
I’ve opened my shop on the Christmas Day. 17 listings already, just missed one day without listing. So far 38 views and 24 visits, no sales. I’m patient waiting and will keep listing almost every day, thanks for the great content!
Keep going, thanks for sharing.
Any update? 😄
Good information. Keep moving forward!
Q1 is like that for everyone don't worry. These are good results for a newly registered store, congrats.
Make sure to add video to every listing, it can be same video for all listings that shows one of them close up in detail
No unnecessary chit-chat, just helpful information. Loved the adding 20 items and then 20 more advice for data analysis. Never heard that before.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you so much!!!! I think you provide the most useful information on etsy here on youtube, and it's free! Thanks a lot!!!
Glad it was helpful!
This has truly been one of the top 6 informational broadcasts that i have watched this year. OUTSTANDING ! THANK YOU SIR.
Glad it was helpful!
Starting out on my Etsy journey and I found your channel just in time. Thank you for your advice. I'd rather be proactive than reactive.
Hi there, Great to hear! Good luck
Opened my Etsy store in June and just created few listings yet. I had not a batch prepared before opening so my listings are growing a bit slowly but I am committed to keep working daily to have enough listings to start making sells. Also felt motivated cause even I have a very few listings I had a couple of favorited items and even that was not even a sale was a huge motivation for me to keep working on my store ❤
Thank you so informative. First attempt I realized I cannot work and keep up so stopped.think I’ll retire n go again with your encouraging info
Hi there, thanks for sharing!
You're the only one sharing a realistic and technical approach to this . I'm desinging my digital product for launch . So this video has given me a great road map to work with .
Thanks Farhan!
Farhan, I m planning on to start selling printables on etsy. Can you please help me learn where do I begin from. What would I need to do. I would appreciate a conversation with you, if it's possible for you.
I'm thrilled to say that this Etsy beginners video is hands down the best one I've seen on the internet! I can't thank you enough for sharing such valuable information that has helped me understand why my store was suspended multiple times. With this newfound knowledge, I feel confident and empowered to start anew and make the necessary changes for a successful Etsy store. Thank you again for creating such an amazing resource! 🙏😀
Thank you so much, great to hear and good luck !!
My respect to author , it is brilliant information and the same time free. Thank you!
Thank you very much for your kind words!
Thank you so much for this video. It has been one of the best Etsy guides I have watched out of the 100s I've seen and I feel even more motivated than before with your help. I appreciate you so much for sharing your knowledge and wisdom. You have a new loyal subscriber in me 🙏😊
You are so welcome!
I truly feel as if I were in a personal consult with you. The quality of the information on your videos is AMAZING. Thank you for teaching us!!
You are so welcome
Thanks for this video! Really enjoyed hearing realistic advice. I started in August and have been listing 1-2 items per day. Thought I was a failure with 44 sales (it's early Oct when I'm posting this comment) because of all the other TH-cam videos that are saying things like "Make $10,000 in your first month on Etsy!". Slow and steady, keeping an eye on what's working well and ditching what isn't, will really win the race.
Hi Allison, yes exactly! Keep going you are doing really well.
Thank you for your good advice: as much as it is reassuring, it is realistic and allows you to be prepared. Here is my store that I just remodeled. Old Time Miniature
Thank you!
Just a big Thank You. Great advices and I love your honesty.
You are so welcome
I've gotten lots of bad advice, this is the best most realistic advice I've gotten since I opened my store 3 months ago. Thank you, I truly appreciate it.
Hi there, you are welcome!
Love how realistic yet straight to the point this is. With so many overpromising out there, I certainly appreciate this one!
Thank you Serica, I appreciate your comment.
business 101 is promise --> delivery --> exceed expectation / over deliver (even by a tiny bit, psychologically is a big deal). That being said I myself don't always do what I know is the optimal route lol.
I hardly either like or comment on any videos, but I had to leave a thumbs up and comment because I have had a new shop on vacation because I haven't known what to do to make my shop viable. Recently, I have wanted to do something with my shop and these points you have given are so easy about what to do and when, I am very encouraged that I might be successful now. Thank you!
No problem Jane, thanks for watching.
I’m a furniture maker in South Wales, been in business mainly doing commercial work. Always wanted to open an Etsy shop and this video is the best I’ve watched so far! Thanks for the content it’s got me excited about listing my products!
Great to hear, thanks for the feedback.
Good guide, this is very useful info. I've been in Etsy for ages and sold only three things ( and one of those was to my son). I've watched lots of videos which peddle the same advice but never as specific as what you've presented here. You've given a step by step plan that is actionable and I'm going to follow that and see what happens. Thank you
HI Claire thanks for your comment.

I'm just looking at opening an Etsy shop for my art. This was so useful. Thank you. I'm off to watch your other videos now.
I don't want to make megabucks, just some extra income here and there as I'm retired.
Getting my head round selling is a nightmare for me but you have given me a bit more confidence... wish me luck!
Hey, glad to have you here. Good luck!
Really enjoyed your practical suggestions, I will take another look at what I’m doing on Etsy
Hey, I wish you best of luck!
This has been the BEST informational video I have seen on TH-cam. I’m totally motivated.
Wow, thank you!
I am just about to setup my Etsy store and have spent literally hours and hours watching different videos to research and get my head around how to best setup and manage and Etsy store. Have to say I learnt more in this 30 minute video than all the other put together. Great content.
That's great Terrence, now get cracking and let me know how you progress.

Exactly. I spent two months research not only my products but Etsy and this is a really helpful video.
Just opened my Etsy store and I stumble upon your page. Thank you so much for a candid guide to Etsy. Love it! Subscribed!!!
Thanks for watching and welcome to the community!
Hi Nick! Thought of sending you an update on my Etsy store. I’ve been putting up one listing a day as per your advice. I’ve been doing that for the past 10 days. I just checked today that my store have 14 views so far. No ads whatsoever, just doing what you’re telling us. No sales yet but just knowing I have a bit of traffic really motivates me!! Thank you!!
Amazing! Please update as you go
Hi Zara, happy to hear that. Keep working and please keep me updated on your progress!
In 2018-19 I had a Etsy shop making decals & shirts. I made my first sale on my bday, I'll never forget that! I made just over 1,000 sales in my first year. It all happened so fast that I didn't really realize & appreciate how well I was actually doing. It didn't take long for folks to start stealing my original artwork & selling it cheaper than me. My sales dropped. I had a case where I got scammed by a buyer & Etsy took their side. I lost the item & my money. I was also working full time outside my home at the time & it got to the point where my Etsy store felt like work...like a chore, rather than my once beloved passion. I was burnt out & discouraged. Then covid hit. After so many blows all at once, I gave it up.... Now I'm a stay at home mama to a toddler & I've been dying to get back into selling on Etsy! I have so many new designs (that I'm definitely going to watermark & protect alot better this time!) I'm really appreciative of all your videos here on TH-cam! ❤ You're awesome!
Hi there, thanks for sharing your journey. Glad to hear that you are giving it another try. Stay tuned!
Hey, how do you protect your artwork though? I haven't figured that one out yet.
@@serendipidy watermarks on every image you upload, even your mock up images. I use photoshop to to add my watermarks & make them the lowest quality Etsy recommends (2k pixels wide). I even tried to "steal" my own artwork by then taking those photos into photo shop & trying to clean it up. My watermark was still visible. Now can people upload it to procreate & trace my artwork? Probably, but I don't think there's any way to stop someone that dedicated to stealing someone's design. But the watermarks and/or a copyright warning usually keeps thieves away.
@@serendipidy put water marks is one way. Another is to cover with slightly transparent lines.
This is really excellent! Thank you for sharing high-quality information. The 30+ minutes I spent watching it is truly worth it. Thank you for your generosity.
Hi there, you are very welcome. Please subscribe to ensure you don't miss a new video, new one out in 5 mins!
Thanks so much, I was getting a little discouraged watching videos from people telling the negatives about Etsy. How foolish of me to watch more than one of those videos as someone about to start up. You have mentioned a couple things like: video, product in use, it's normal to not sell anything in the first weeks, don't use etsy adds, don't make more than 20 of one item to begin with. These things really made some lightbulbs go off and/ or put my mind at ease. Thank you! Subscribed!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you again. Another helpful video. I watched the 10 minute SEO video and shared it with my daughter. My daughter and I are collaborating with my Etsy shop. She does the designing and drawing. I do the mockup preparation and we both work on the writing, etc. have a lot to still work on and your videos are extremely helpful. Thank you again! 😊
Glad it was helpful! Let me know how you are doing in a month or two!
Thank you soo much for your information. I was intimidated a lot, but now I am happy to go on with my sweet little etsy-shop, it is 1 week old and a baby. But it is so much fun to create and built up my listings. ♡
You can do it!
Wow I wish I’d seen this video when I first started but that’s ok now I can see where I need work and how I can make small changes to be more successful. Thank you so much!
You're very welcome Cassie, good luck!
Thanks for this. I was becoming disheartened because all the videos I've seen until now have said how easy it is to make money with digital products. You are the only one telling the truth.
Hi yes, it is not that easy at all!
Thank you so much for this video! It’s a pity I haven’t seen it before I’ve opened my shop but I’ll still try to implement your advices. Hope it’ll work 🤞🏻🤞🏻 thank you!
Hey Nastia! I wish you best of luck!
Just opened my Etsy store. Thank you for the great tips! Some of them I knew, others were new. :) Did something wrong with my first listing, so I have to learn the hows' of online stores. A whole new world to me.
Hi Gorill, thanks for watching, we all learn something every day, wishing you all the best.
Great video. I gave up on my store a month in and took a break now I'm back and determined to make it work' it's very slow but I am adding more and more stuff (I'm up to over 200 listings) as I continue to try and be more creative. I definitely need to add more personalized items in my store though
Best of luck! Keep me informed of how it is going.
- great tips for niche dropshipping boutiques let alone Etsy! Great video - gem tips on listing your first 100 - yes you have to go in stages and test as you go. Don’t think I’ve heard anyone talk about this ever!! 🎉😅super video!
Hi there, thanks for your comment, and feedback!
Thank you so much for this video! This provided me the motivation I needed to continue growing my Etsy Shop. No Sugar coating, just straight advice and tips. Thanks!
You are very welcome
I'm so glad I found your channel. I'm grateful for the truthfully detailed, step by step instructions you give. Now I can truly put my Etdy Store plan together and follow what you've taught. Thank you so very much.
Glad it was helpful!
This video was SO helpful for us! We opened our shop about a month ago so this speaks loads to us. I feel like we can let go of some of the stress we were feeling about low sales and use that energy toward uploading daily and preparing for the fall/winter. Thank you so much!!
No problem at all, I am really glad the video allowed you to de stress a bit and focus on Q4..thats where the sales are.
I am so grateful I clicked on your video. It gave me so much advice I needed before opening my own Etsy shop. Thanks a lot!🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
You are so welcome!
Excellent Etsy tutorial! 👏👏 This goes beyond the ordinary tutorial of the mechanics of setting up an Etsy store and getting SEO analytics. This is more about the proper mindset to building a successful Etsy store. I love the 10 at a time publishing approach until you get to a hundred listing. You're taking the Kaizen approach of constant improvement which I vey much appreciate. Just starting my store so I can't really show you just yet but later I would love to have you critique my efforts!
Hi there, thanks for your feedback. Feel free to contact me if you would like to book a store critique:

Very insightful video! Great information and advice! Thank you. I opened my Etsy store in December, but since then not much happened, although I admit I haven't done it right. I will follow your tips and strategies and I know that way will be successful because I know I have beautiful and unique designs but I just don't know how to run the store properly. I know it's a lot of work and commitment. Thank you again for sharing so much valuable information!
You are very welcome Andreea, keep going!
Amazing guide! Thank you, love your no bs straight to the point, tell it like it is style ❤
Hey Nolan, thank you for your feedback!
Great content!, i will start doing these things now as i have only been open since April 5! Wish me luck!!
Best of luck!
I am ready to jump in to Etsy. I've seen a lot of videos but this is the best. In fact one guy YT keeps suggesting is just trash. Looking forward to watching your other videos. Thank you!
Wow, thank you!
I just found your channel and find your advice EXTREMELY HELPFUL. Thank you so much!!!!! for your time and effort.
Thanks Colleen, you are very welcome.
That was so helpfull...exactly what I have been looking for...just facts, guidance and advice...without any glitz and ego...thank you so much
Hi Tony, you're most welcome!
As a new seller this video is a no BS, common sense approach and I have found your advice brilliant thank you 🙏
Great to hear!
I have been on Etsy for years, with two different shops, never committed, did okay, but never did great. I’ve just opened a third store and your video, which I happened upon accidentally, has not only motivated me to do this shop with excellence, but to also resurrect my other two (currently empty) shops with excellence as well. Happy New Year to me! And to you and yours as well! Thank you for sharing your brilliant insight in such a concise, clear and user-friendly manner!
Hi there, thanks for the feedback! Wishing you success in 2024.
Thank you for sharing such valuable content. I opened my store last weekend and this video is just gold for me. I'm going to follow all your tips. Let's see what happens 🤞
Great, looking forward to hearing your progress!
Very clear and concise. Absolutely helpful. Thank you. Watched alot on this topic, and this is refreshing and full of smart advice, all in one video. At the end of the video, I particularly liked hearing about enjoying the process. You're SEO in 10 minutes was extremely helpful and got beyond the confusion and mystery, much of which is peddled via online business SEO which I've never trusted so much. New starter, about the open, confirmed my decisions and focused on improving and articulating my product far more accurately. Thank you again.
You're welcome, glad it was helpful.
This was by far a superior look into Etsy start up. Congrats on that!
Glad you think so!
By far, The best tutorial about opening an Etsy store!. Im not a tech savvy person ( 70 yrs and self taught lol), but love creating. Thank you for a clear and honest video. Very valuable for beginners.
Hi Susan, I appreciate your comment. Good luck with your Etsy business!
I've started publishing on January 1st every day my digital products and, as you said, it's hard work. I started to be disappointed because I don't have a lot of traffic yet, but you're right. I have to be patient and keep publishing. (I'm just brand new!!)
I have about 30 more products ready to publish, but you're right, I have to see what is working to know what to design. So I will lower a little bit on designing and keep more time on Etsy watching, observing and researching.
I found your videos logical, practical and most of all, very useful. Thanks a lot!
Hi Andrea, keep going it takes time. Thanks for your comment.
How is it going?
@@cassieinspire3940 So so... It's hard and I don't have many visits or sales so far...
I follow your channel for a while now. It seems that I came across you a little bit late. I opened my photographic store in October last year. In my first phase (without any previous knowledge) I put bit over 100 item to my physical wall print shop. At the beginning I use a lot SM too. Since the moment I found you channel I change completely strategy and also store design. First I decided to split my shop into to sections physical print and digital one. Than I stopped SM and started to focus on SEO, general design and one day new listing formula. In October I had around 160 visits to my shop, next month in Noviembre i reached almost 190, in December I hit over 320 and I sold two digital files in Xmas time. January started again bit slowly, 81 visits so far, so 8 visits per day roughly. I am not in rush with my store, I know that product I sell is very personal and definitely not high demand. I will keep with one day listing strategy until I reach 220 item in my store so, few more days and than I want list one photo each second or third day to keep regular routine going. I am not sure if my statistic numbers are correct or if I do everything right, but I try follow you advice. Big thanks for sharing your experience with us.
Hi there Kix, thanks for sharing, and keep going!
Thanks you so much to solve so much questions I confusing about, you are the best youtuber talking about etsy I ever met. Information so dense and practical even more than I am in the university.
Happy to hearing your toturial as I just begin the etsy as an architect student's part time work.
Cheers!
Wow, thank you and good luck!
I'm a year late but your content gave me so much value. And thank you for being honest by setting our expectations.
Hey Garry, it's never too late to start!
This was unbelievably helpful, thank you!
Happy to hear that Siobhan
Being patient is hard for me. I run ads right away after listed the items because I have validated niches & optimized listings(have good title, tags, description & video). I run the ads for about 1 month, turn off those that don't sell & continue the ads for the selling items. I've been on Etsy since November 2022. For November, the revenue already covered all the fees & got a little profit, so I don't have to use my own money to pay for anything. It was the same for December, thanks to Q4 season & it was part of my plan in 2022 to open Etsy shop during Q4.
For January so far, my Etsy Finance balance is already positive. My initial aim for running ads was to get those sales count quickly & gain the data. I was ready to invest for the costs, but turned out the revenue itself can cover the fees so I'm happy. Now, my focus is to get my shop to 1000 listings within this year based on the data & statistics that I have. My shop is selling digital products, so it has a streamlined process-research, create & list.
Keep up the good work.
@@etsyconsultant Thank you for sharing your Etsy insights & knowledge. Really appreciate that.
Halo, been on etsy for a few months now but haven't generated any sales yet and I was kind of feeling discouraged but after I watched your video about tags & description in 10mins and after following your advice my traffic views increased & that alone boosted my spirit. Thank you so much, will definitely watch your other videos.
Hey Grace, you're welcome!
I greatly appreciate how you get right into the details. How refreshing
Thank you so much!
My wife and I (both in our 60's😊) are considering selling on Etsy in 2024 and I agree with @looserwish below "Out of all the video’s I watched, I can say that this video makes most sense & realistic. Thanks for sharing. I have subscribed to You as well.. 😊"
Hey, thank you very much for your kind words and welcome on board!
This advice was so REAL and I’m depth! I appreciate it❤
Wonderful Dominique, great to hear.
Thanks so much for the video. I've had a store for a while but taking it in a different direction recently as my previous products had too many factors that made them not really any good for making any money (supplier reliability, increased cost, amount of time it took to set up and make one item). My shop is called Huntington Moo. Looking forward to seeing other shops here as I'm always looking for gifts for my loved ones
Hi Emma, good luck with your store and keep us informed with your progress.
Fantastic video, I’m a new seller and I believe if I successfully use everything I’ve learnt in this my Etsy shop will be a success.
Hi there, great to hear and good luck!
I just saw your video, a week after I started my Etsy store.. Ahjea Dior Baby. Thank you, I learned a lot. I now understand what I need to do. I thought I could only enter 10 items at a time. I plan to go back and watch more of your videos. Thank you.
Hey Kim, glad it was helpful!
I came to your channel from Reddit and honestly you're such a breath of fresh air. I love how honest and straight forward you are. So many people try to spin etsy as this passive income but I can't wrap my head around what is passive for them? It takes A LOT of work and I just pushed my store live with some listings this week. Now I have a concrete plan to follow for those 365 listings (cries). I do have several ideas for digital downloads -- are you of the philoshophy to stick with one thing (ex printable art) or try a mix throughout the 365 to see what will get more sales and traffic?
Hi, thanks for being here I appreciate it. In answer to your question, you can have many different digital products but I would advise they all sit under the same niche, EG weddings, or professions or education and so on.
Hi I just watched your video and I’m really glad I did. The step by step you explained really help me to think about my brand and shop and I decided to stripped back and start it again, doing the right things and following your 100 days plan. I’m gonna start now and will let you know how it goes 👍🏻👍🏻
Hi Zara, great news please keep us posted with your progress!
Hi, any update? How's your store going? 🙂
THANK YOU for this video!! The most informative guide I've seen yet. I'm getting ready to open my shop in a few weeks and was so relieved to hear you list my selected niche as a good one! This has given me so much relief to have a guide of things like how often to list items etc. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Very insightful, thank you!
My pleasure!
Great video packed with lots of helpful starter beginners information, this will definitely come in handy if I decide to proceed with opening up a new Etsy Shop!
Great to hear thanks for watching.
I opened my store on Dec 1st, had 17 sales that month most of them the last two weeks. This month I have 13 sales so far. Thank you so much for this info, I see that I can fix a few things. Do you think is good time to image alt tags? It is a downloadable digital product
Hi Arianna thanks for your comment. If you are making daily sales or close to it then that's fine.
Recently opened Etsy store. Like a week ago. Full of Ginger shop is the name. I’m selling wall decor. I think your advice is fantastic and will be following steps!! Thank you!!
hey Vivian, I wish you good luck and keep me updated on how you're doing!
This video has been more productive than all of Brands Creators videos combined
Thanks for letting me know, I appreciate it.
Thanks Nick for the insight you shared. Regarding the categories section, in your opinion is it better to use general keywords that have very high competition or specific keywords that are low in competition?
Does the naming of the category affect the SEO of each product listing?
Hi Budi, thanks for your comment. Yes they do, but it's not something you really need to focus on.
Good video. Couple of questions - the 20 listings, is that 20 at a time, or would you recommend 1 a day for 20 days in order to get that daily activity? Or is it 20 at a time, and then each day go in and tinker with verbiage? And, would you recommend setting up an LLC or some other type of structured business?
Hi there thanks for your comment. Slow and steady is the way with Etsy, so 1 a day. With regards to setting up an LLC it all depends on what that entails in your country, ie set up costs, versus what you would gain at this stage.
I just want to make sure I understand. I a have decided it is time to set up Etsy, I currently just have a Facebook page 2 years old but ..that I have consistently posted with a purpose daily since March 1st (what a difference that has made) But back to my question I open store with 20 products and then everyday after opening list 1 new product a day until I reach that 100 mark. Is this correct? Of course analyze along the way to adjust what products are working
FYI your video has given me the confidence to move forward. Been delaying starting until you
This has been very, very good. Details!!! So glad I listened. Thank you.
Next, I will watch your, Etsy, SEO in 10 min.
Awesome! Thank you!
Great stuff, I am re-committing to my Etsy business. I have been on for a couple years, for a few months and about 160 listings I need to Start listening again and add to what I already have in the suggestions would be amazing. Geaux Ink Designs is the name of my shop. Just discovered you! Thanks for your common sense approach!

Hi Nick, what would you recomend if you have 300 items in your store, but you started the business in a wong way (not uploading every day, poor seo, low quality foto..) should we open another store and start over or fix everything in the existant store and go from there? Tnx! Great contant video, as always!
Hi there thanks for your comment. If you have low or no sales then yes start a new store.
@@etsyconsultant Between this and your response to a question of mine on another video, I really think I may need to open a new shop and scrap my secondary one. Can I leave the secondary one up while I build the new one out (for reference purposes)? I have been using your strategies the last two weeks on listings and would hate to lose all that SEO work etc. I also don't want to get in a bind with Etsy though where they flag me for having two shops selling exact duplicate items while I build the new one out.
Hey Nik! I just noticed today that when looking through searches for what's selling, the filter by Bestsellers option has been removed and replaced with a filter by Star Seller option. As you've pointed out in previous videos, Star Seller doesn't necessarily mean a whole lot. What would be your new recommended course of action given this change?
Hi Andrew, so they have, that is a shame. Lets hope they bring it back.
@@etsyconsultant As they asked, What would be your new recommended course of action given this change? Thank you in advance. Love the content.
It is still there, just not accessible by the same method.
Nick, I just located your TH-cam TODAY (Jan 16, 2023)! I watched this video and your video regarding Etsy SEO In Ten Minutes. Wow, what informative and helpful information. My Etsy has been open a long time and I haven't had the courage or information I needed to really get it open and running. I believe today I have been PUSHED to GO FORWARD. Thank you so much!
