Hi Jess 😊Just opened up my shop and my only source of income (homeless/living in my SUV). But, I will be making a blog and TH-cam channel soon. I am a prime source to try your strategies as a beginner to see how they work, please let me know if we can do something useful like that ❤
I can't seem to find an answer, but what do the goals actually do in regards to ads? They all seem to basically mean the same thing but does picking sales over exposure make a difference? And in what actual way?
Great video! I experimented with running ads on 2 items at $2/day for a month. It really pushed view rate up (maybe 10x), but no sales directly and no more favorites than usual. I did get two sales that month, but another item and a custom make from a former client. Do I spend more? I try to take into account the cost of ads I might run and Off-site ads in my pricing, but it it always a shock to get a sale from Off-site ads - after all the fees on one sale, Etsy had $35, or 25%, and I still had to pay for shipping plus insurance of the original amount, jic. Still need to revamp/raise my pricing, even with howling clients. I need to clarify, I had only one sale from Off-site ads in 2022, two in 2021. Both clients came back to buy more....
Thanks for sharing your experience! :) As to your question - spending more or not is definitely a personal choice based on what you can afford and your ROI over time. If ads pushed the view rate up, but your conversions didn't change - I'd starting analysing why that might be the case - is there something you need to change in your shop/listings to increase conversions?
So I’ve listened to the video and have set up my first ever etsy ads. For one month I will not be making any changes to the listings and I will not be posting on my social’s Let’s see how it works!!

Great video. Any new learnings on the topic!?

Great video! Very helpful. Would you suggest onsite advertising all listings, or just your most popular, or preferred listings?

so if you have 10 items in your store and you have all the items in the ads for $1 a day is that 10 dollars a day? If someone clicks. confused
No. You set your total ads budget. So you would pay $1 a day no matter how many of your products you were advertising.
So if for instance I pay $5 a day does that mean every time someone clicks my add I spend $5 or is it just the once?

Hi , thanks for asking. I’ve had 4 sales between March/April. So I’m pretty pleased with the outcome.

If i could put $1 in anywhere and get $2 back (100% roi) i would always do it imo
Etsy ads are a total ripoff
