    Etsy and Amazon are good because they have built-in traffic that will bring sales to your shop. With Shopify, you have to do the work to bring the people to you. Etsy is a great place to start

  • @elzy133
    @elzy133 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    You obviously don't need to, but have you tried the Amazon integration with Shopify using an Amazon seller account? Not sure if the homemade would be an option too i'm guessing it would be. But it's suppose to link to your Shopify account. Obviously having it on FBA seems great since they do the shipping.

    • @charmedhandmade
      @charmedhandmade  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      I have not tried that but I’ll definitely look into it

    • @elzy133
      @elzy133 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @@charmedhandmade It's definitely something I want to do when I decide to sell my products on Amazon. Since it connects with Shopify I assume it will work just like as if someone shopped on your website, but you'll be making less due to the 15% referral fee. But since you're sending it out you can add a card with your biz info, and a discount or something to encourage someone to shop on your site next time. I've heard Amazon doesn't like that for FBA, but I don't know their rules for FBA. lol

    Thank you so much for this info. I am excited that you re only a hop skip and Jump away from me lol! I am in Spartanburg County. I have a question. I went to check out your website and it takes me to Etsy once I am ready to start shopping. Can you tell me the upside to doing this? I was going to start on Etsy then Shopify. However, I never thought to link it over to Etsy. Customers buying off my website, I can avoid the 8% fees from Etsy . Will you please provide me the insight as to why it would be good to link the Shopify over to Etsy?

    • @charmedhandmade
      @charmedhandmade  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yes, Spartanburg is only like 30 minutes away from me haha. I originally had my website and my Etsy separate when I recorded this video but I knew that when the holidays hit, I was not going to want to handle both so I pointed my website towards Etsy temporarily until I could get a good system going for both. If I had a lot of traffic to my website, I would definitely separate them again to avoid the fees but as it stands, Etsy is bringing me soooo many customers that I'm just going to keep it as my primary for now.

    @Jana-TheCraftyGambler 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    If I’m not mistaken, the fees on any platform you are selling on may be a tax deduction(???). I’m in Tx, so I believe they are so even tho you may pay more thru Etsy, you’ll be able to deduct them at the end of the year. I could be totally wrong about this, but it would stand to reason that they are. Something to ask your CPA about.
