I’ve been watching this channel for months (since I was about three months into Etsy), and this is the most useful Etsy channel on TH-cam. Because of his advice I was able to go from 30 sales to almost 500 sales in about 4 months. So glad I found this channel
You are the only one i follow in etsy related things because you offer real information and not selling dreams, affiliate links and other bs. Good video!
Such a good tip. I've been binge watching you for the last few weeks. I tried this a week ago on a few listings to see if it made a difference. The listings I changed are getting traffic from search engines while the ones without photo tags are only getting Etsy traffic. Your channel is my Etsy bible 😂
Plenty of work to do after watching this. 😊. Genuinely helpful advice that you just don't get anywhere else. Your channel really is head and shoulders above other Etsy videos on YT. Thank you
Never done much with Etsy was so baffled in the end by everyone’s options I left it. But after binge watching your videos I’m spring cleaning my shop and will be adding all the advice day by day to catch up! Love your style of teaching and the no nonsense approach, you just say it as it is and we action 👌 😊
Hi Nick, after reviving my Etsy store and watching your videos last summer, I faded away a bit, but now I'm back and just want to say you're the best, so glad I've tuned in to you again - I'm going to stick around this time and really get my Etsy shop going - also plan to get regular sales with help like this video (and the rest!) from you. Most other Etsy TH-camrs only want to sell you something in the end, but now - thanks to you - I've got some meaningful work to do in the morning putting this list of tips into action - and it's free! Fantastic, really appreciate what you do and how you do it - so straightforward, plus your videos are never too long!👍
Thank goodness I found your videos only 3 weeks into my etsy journey ! Now things are starting to make sense. And thank goodness I only have 22 products because I'm going to start over from scratch. Everyone else on you tube seems more interested in selling you a course they are providing at $297.00 or more instead of actually building a viable profitable Etsy shop!! Great Information! I'm sure we will be talking soon. What is the name of YOUR Etsy shop?
I still have one sale in two months, now with 185 t-shirts listed. I think I'm doing 85% of Etsy well. I thought it was closer to 100% until I hear your great advice. Your titles/tags video hit me between the eyes, and here are some more things I can do to enhance my store. I know my shop is too good to be doing so poorly, so I will start working on these tips to keep Etsy involved. Thanks so much for your great advice, best I've heard online.
Hi Robin, thank you for your kind words. If you need help with your store, please feel free to reach out. You can book a call with me here: etsy-consultant.com/services/
We followed this great advice and the advice from our 60 minute consultation, which was so precious!!! It's amazing!!! We've started seeing results!! Thank you so much!!!
Thanks again, mate. I don't know your name but I'm just building my Etsy store and you make everything so clear and accessible that I feel like I have a friend and mentor. I'm launching at the first of the year . If you like, I'll keep you posted as to progress . God bless...
This is genius. I've just started my store and I plan on carefully following your advice. I'll let you know how it goes. I just have three listings, now I'm going to create 20 more and add two a day for ten days. I'm excited. Thank you, Meridith
Dude! Love your vids. To the point and highly informative. I only wish I had discovered you a few months earlier. I have lots of fixing to do. Thanks for your dedication and hard work!
I found your channel 3 days ago, thankfully before wasting a lot of time listening to anyone else. I LOVE the way you give advice, and I find your videos very comforting because you give such practical, actionable steps I can take to improve my shop immediately. I'm listening while doing a menial task to prepare my products. THANK YOU for what you do! I've gotten my sister listening to you as well. She's a successful veteran seller, but just started a brand new shop of a different type, and I'm excited to see how it will go.
Thanks so much for your advice, I love this channel. I started on Etsy a couple months ago because I got laid off and wanted to be able to stay home with my daughter - you don’t get these years back!! I have had 4 sales but only 12 listings so now I’ll be spending my nights after she goes to bed getting to 100!
How long should you allow a listing to go with no sales before you deem it a “dead listing”? And thank you for all of this amazing content - you go above & beyond w/how much value you share 👏👏👏
Good tips, as always! I did want to comment that I currently have my 1 year old store set to manual renewals, specifically to force me to visually go over each and every listing as it comes up for renewal. I check for views, sales, etc, and then (if needed) update whatever needs help - photos, tags, title, description, image alt tags. When I had it on auto-renew, these things would just not get done. So I find manual renew an easy way to keep my listings updated without it becoming overwhelming.
Thanks for your input here. Yes this is fine from a practicality point of view, but if it goes out of stock you are breaking the sales history and lowering your listing quality score, so bear that in mind.
Just found your channel and the advice and you feel genuine, just about to launch my store and business so the timing feels like fate 😊 thankyou aswell
So I tried a couple of things after watching the video, and I made my first sale in weeks a few hours after doing so. So it looks like I better try the rest of the tips! Thanks for sharing!
I' ve started watching videos on TH-cam for hours in order to get some help for our Etsy Shop. By far the best video I've seen up to now! Such useful information! We'll be putting your suggestions in practice and I'll write in the comments as soon as we get results! Thank you so much!!!
Hi Nick! I found your channel just a week ago and I make sure I watch one video per day. My goodness I have learned more in this past week than I have for the past two years. This particular video is a goldmine. I saw one of your replies that said even if you don’t have twenty of an item in inventory to put twenty anyway. That scares me but I’m going to follow your lead. 😂. Question: I read or heard in someone else’s channel to renew all your listings every three weeks. Your comments on this is much appreciated. I would love to have you critique my store but not until I get 100 items in there ! (I only have 31). I am a pattern designer but also carry supplies. Not enough though. That is what I’ll be working on . Thank you for channel. It is most helpful.
Hi there, thanks for your comment. Is is not good advice to re new your listings every 3 weeks. Looking forward to working with you, link below for when you are ready: etsy-consultant.com/services/30-minute-zoom-consultation/
I am on Etsy for 4 years. Handmade knitted Gnomes. I was so busy to make them and just now started looking videos about Etsy on TH-cam. I was kind of doing things right but not everything. It was good enough and I didn't need to do extra steps to make sales. But things are slowing down.... I liked your video!! Amazing tips and to the point!!! I subscribed your channel. I am sure I will see good points in future. I do not like those videos where they talk about earnings of 100 K . It doesn't apply to me. I couldn't handmake my Gnomes for this amount of the money without help.
Ive never heard these tips from other youtube etsy gurus. So glad i found your channel a few days ago. Im doing pod and have been on etsy for around 5months with very few sales. I will be trying these tips out. Hopefully things will turn around *fingers crossed*
Thanks for the tips . I am starting my new store to launch on March 1st. I will definitely will use this tips. Thanks a million for sharing your expertise.
You have a lot of great videos, but this one I’ll keep watching over and over not to miss something each time I list. You have been a great help to me with our one one meetings and I keep learning something new with each of your videos. Thank you Nik. Kayvon.
Another great video. Thank you so much! You are so right about videos. It's one of the factors that pulls sales into a new store. I am increasing my inventory as I watch this video 😊. Thank you!
Love the straightforward specific actions advice 🙏 so far the only channel that gives advice I can go and do straight ahead after watching the video. Thank you!
what a great video! I've had my etsy shop since 2010 and still found here some useful tips, thank you! The best channel of this type for sure, great job!
Thanks so much for the good practical tips that give us concrete things to work on. I get sales but I'm always wanting to increase sells especially during slow periods. I will work on all 10 of these tips.
There is always hope Eleni, and don't sit there without help if you need it, you can book in for a consultation with me at any time, the link is below, thanks!: etsy-consultant.com/services/
Thank you! I already watched almost all your videos and try to practice at my shop following your advice . Of course i need your help .After i have somehow the shop organised i will cone to tou fir the rest. There is a lot to solve🙂
Very good information thanks a lot I watched most of your video. I started to have sales and I run out of my products ( I sell crystal bracelets) after like 10 hours when I had all my new beads I renew my listings and I lost all visibility, now I know what happened. Great work from you and thanks again.
This video is really helpful and informative. Will surely implement in my store. U should more of these videos. Please also make a video on how we can do better customer service. Like if a customer purchased an item from us then what message should we send, how to ask for reviews etc.
Hi there, thanks for your comment. My advice for customer service, think about an good experience of customer service you have received and give that back.
Hey, Nick I would be very thankful if you could describe the part from 2:40 a bit more specifically... I've tried a lot, but I didn't get that pen icon... 🙈 Thank you very much!!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
OMG, thank you so much for the video💕, NOW I have a lot of work after watching this 🤦♀ 6 month on Etsy and not really happy about it yet, but hey, it's time to work harder! Thank you again, your advices that's what I need to hear!
Nick, You’re such a darling for doing this. Thanks for the 🌶️ tips! I do have a question regarding bio pics. I don’t want to use my real photo for my bio, what should I do instead? As I’ve been using pics from stock libraries for each shop brand.
Hi miracles, just use your company branding, or as you have done is also fine, the main point is to have something in there so it makes the store look professional.
Hey I would just like to let you know after doing some of the things you mentioned on here copying, updating my stock new photos and brightening I’ve managed to get a sale and lots more likes thank you so much I’m working on my store every day 😊
Thank you for the helpful tips. I never thought of adding the section link. I am already adding the store link. I am going to add both from now. Thank you.
@@etsyconsultant I followed your advice of changing listing names, adding photo descriptions, getting a more uniform theme, etc. (I watched your video on the store with 1000 items.) I started selling immediately. I listed a new item and sold it in one hour. I have been selling 2 or 3 a day and I'm working steadily toward getting my 100 items added. I'm also going to add videos like you suggested. Your advice works. Thank you.
Excellent video, thanks Nik! I'd love for you to do a video on selling vintage/one of a kind items since it's kind of impossible to have more than one in stock.
Hi Nik. I always value your videos because you give the best advice for our Etsy store. However in this video and under point #4 you emphasize the importance of having duplicate listings. As an artist, I am puzzled about that. I feel is like asking Leonardo da Vinci to dublicate the Mona Lisa. How can I dublicate my inspiration? How can I design a piece of jewelry and make it 10-20 times? The dublicate listings is very challenging to me. However, I will wait for your advise... Thank you again for a superb video.
Hi there, thanks for your comment, I hear you! I have a video dedicated to one of a kind sellers. It's not a perfect solution however use the parts that will work for your business. Link below for the video: th-cam.com/video/zPzDptXFMoM/w-d-xo.htmlsi=EWbk9DaO4CQrRwer
Great tips, great videos. But Etsy is not just about handmade and POD. The platform is also for selling vintage items. Obviously the stock of 20 tip doesn't work with vintage. Could you perhaps make 1 or more videos with tips for sellers of vintage on Etsy? Would be great. Thanks.
I had a meeting cancelled today so guess what I'm doing :) Thanks for the tips. I have one listing in drafts waiting to be published and another design ready to list. I have a lot to do but these are great tips. I've written them all down and will start implementing the changes I need to make as soon as I finish commenting here. I've even created a notebook just for your tips. I love checking out your videos to see what suggestions you give next. Quick question. Do you recommend using comma's in your listing title or leave the words running together? Thanks so much for these videos. You provide stellar advice. Practical, achievable and you're so full of encouragement. Thank you.
@@etsyconsultant thank you very much. Another Etsy TH-camr recommended no commas so I changed all my listings but nothing really happened so I'll change them back to comma's. Thank you. I really appreciate your tips.
Excellent tips! I have watched 100s of videos on Etsy SEO, nothing comes close to your straight to the point tips. Thank you very much for sharing all this. I am checking your website now to see what you offer!
Glad to have found your channel. I’ve been plugging away at my pod shop for an embarrassingly long time with nothing much to show for it. I was delighted to hear your strategy of 10 listing in 5 days as I am in the throes of implementing it myself already. So validation is great and your post is really energising. Thanks. I’m definitely going to follow all 10 suggestions.
I sell vintage items and some handmade vintage style items. I am stumped on how many photos you can list for instance of a vintage pattern. Or what kind of video to do. You can't show it in use, the only other option is to show the front and back of the pattern...which is in the photos.
Hi there, thanks for commenting. I mean the links to the sections in your store (the categories in which you organize your listings). You can find them on left side panel in the main page of your store.
This depends on how you want your brand to be perceived, and what you want your overall brand image to look like.

Great Advice Nik, yesterday I followed some of you tips for my digital download stores (alt text, changing primary images). Hope for improvement. We'll see how it goes :)
Great Tips Video! I have shared it. Thank you! My question is about seasonal items. You mentioned previously that non selling items bring down the "score" of the shop. What is your specific recommendation for seasonal items? Should they be deactivated, or does one need to remove them completely from the shop? Also same Q. in regards to poor sellers? TY!
Hello...I just found you today...and I can't stop listening to you. I have actually paid someone...but, just listening to you...I am so ready to do what you have asked. I know that I must get my store, in order...and I have been on ETSY for 3 months...but just went live, last week. I will do what you said...and I do have 21 listing (only 3 have sold...and that was to my family (without my Titles, and my Tags...well, they are completely WRONG). I sincerely want to thank you...and will let you know how things are working...in about 2-3 weeks). (Will it take that long to get ETSY to relook at my store?) No matter, I will do what is necessary. I am in Florida...and so happy to be here and starting my ETSY store. Have a blessed evening. 😇🙂
I'm not sure if I understood correctly your last tip, about puting store link and section link. Did you tell us to put in description of an item? I just need confimration that I understood it correctly. Thank you so much for all your videos and help, I'm thinking of taking that short 5 minute zoom session with you.
I’m so thankful that I found your channel your content is amazing!!! I’ll do all things that you say and my question is, I have 350 listings should I add an all listings a video ? My store is 4 1/2 months old and I list since 1 month the same listings and copy it with another mockups 1 with flat shirt and one with a model or I change the seo. Is this the right way ? Thank you for your answer and your powerful videos!!!
Hi, thanks for your comment. In short, you have listed way too many items, way too quickly, and this will tank your conversion rate. What you have done is not a good way to build an Etsy store. I would save yourself a lot of time and confusion and book in for a 30 minute consultation with me so I can sort you out here.

@artnmind, @etsyconsultant. In my descriptions, I've added links to related products and to the opening page of my store. But I can't figure out how to link an entire section or category. I'm hoping it's easy! Any information would be greatly appreciated, or maybe you can point me in the right direction. Thanks!! 😊
Hey SFG, don't touch titles or tags, and I wouldn't touch photos either. Honestly, unless there is a very good reason to do so, don't touch the listing at all.
@@etsyconsultant Ok thank you, what about descriptions? Sometimes I change small bits, I don’t touch anything relating to keywords, or anything at the top where the main information is just usually my processing times change so I have a section for that which I mass edit and change sometimes would this affect anything?

Thank you! I already watched almost all your videos and try to practice at my shop following your advice . Of course i need your help .After i have somehow the shop organised i will cone to tou fir the rest. There is a lot to solve🙂
Very good information thanks a lot I watched most of your video. I started to have sales and I run out of my products ( I sell crystal bracelets) after like 10 hours when I had all my new beads I renew my listings and I lost all visibility, now I know what happened.
Great work from you and thanks again.
You're welcome Betty.!
This video is really helpful and informative. Will surely implement in my store. U should more of these videos.
Please also make a video on how we can do better customer service. Like if a customer purchased an item from us then what message should we send, how to ask for reviews etc.
Hi there, thanks for your comment. My advice for customer service, think about an good experience of customer service you have received and give that back.
This is tremendous - thank you!! It took me a minute to find alt text (had to toggle to the old version) but I'm on it! Thank you again so much!
No problem!
New subscriber will watch again and take Notes. Thank you for taking the time to do this.
Thank YOU for subscribing and being here, it means a lot, thanks.
Always great advice Nick! Csn you please explain how i do the tip number 10.... ?
Thank you!
Hey Eleni, video on this coming soon.
Hey, Nick
I would be very thankful if you could describe the part from 2:40 a bit more specifically... I've tried a lot, but I didn't get that pen icon... 🙈
Thank you very much!!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Hi there, thanks for your comment. I recommend leaving listings in your store for 1 year to see if they will sell.
OMG, thank you so much for the video💕, NOW I have a lot of work after watching this 🤦♀ 6 month on Etsy and not really happy about it yet, but hey, it's time to work harder! Thank you again, your advices that's what I need to hear!
Hi Olga, you are most welcome!
Nick, You’re such a darling for doing this. Thanks for the 🌶️ tips!
I do have a question regarding bio pics. I don’t want to use my real photo for my bio, what should I do instead? As I’ve been using pics from stock libraries for each shop brand.
Hi miracles, just use your company branding, or as you have done is also fine, the main point is to have something in there so it makes the store look professional.
If only I had found your video earlier! Many thanks. Time for me to get working on my store!
Hi Caroline, great to have you here!
Hey I would just like to let you know after doing some of the things you mentioned on here copying, updating my stock new photos and brightening I’ve managed to get a sale and lots more likes thank you so much I’m working on my store every day 😊
Hey Jo, really happy to hear that. Keep up the good work!
Always great info! Side note - So intrigued with your background each video. You’re beneath boulders or big rocks? Such an interesting space! ☺️
Thank you, we have an interesting garden here in Cyprus, its the landscaping.
I am going to do all this. Thanks. I will be busy for quite a while.
You got this!
Thank you for the helpful tips. I never thought of adding the section link. I am already adding the store link. I am going to add both from now. Thank you.
Hi there Brindha, great to hear and you are welcome.
I want to THANK YOU VERY MUCH for all the videos, support and help!! 💗
You are so welcome!
Love all of this, so much I didn’t realise. Thank you 😊
You're welcome, Sonz!
I'm going to do them all.
Good luck. Let me know how you get on.
@@etsyconsultant I followed your advice of changing listing names, adding photo descriptions, getting a more uniform theme, etc. (I watched your video on the store with 1000 items.)
I started selling immediately. I listed a new item and sold it in one hour.
I have been selling 2 or 3 a day and I'm working steadily toward getting my 100 items added. I'm also going to add videos like you suggested.
Your advice works. Thank you.
Thank you for all of the great ideas!!
Glad you like them!
Yes and I appreciate your advice so much. Love your videos. Thank you!
Thanks for being here I appreciate it!
Excellent video, thanks Nik! I'd love for you to do a video on selling vintage/one of a kind items since it's kind of impossible to have more than one in stock.
I second this request, please! :) Love your channel, Nik!
Yes please!
Hi there Marla, already done!
th-cam.com/video/zPzDptXFMoM/w-d-xo.html
@@etsyconsultant Whoa, I thought I had seen all your videos, but I guess I missed this. Thanks very much, am heading over right now to watch
Hi there please see here:
th-cam.com/video/zPzDptXFMoM/w-d-xo.html
Such incredible useful info! Thank you so much for sharing this. I’m going to apply them all, starting today. 🙏🏻
No problem Kaki, thanks for watching
I'm gonna start doing these tips today. Only have 21 items in my store currently but I try and add 1 item everyday.
Yes keep listing 1 a day, you should have made a few sales by the time you get to 100 in 2.5 months time.
Loved your tip about increasing quantities! I definitely noticed a boost. Thank you so much. Gonna try these others and report back 👍💥
Great to hear, please keep us posted!
Most valuable content about Etsy stores... All your videos are gems. I learn a lot, thanks!
Hey Miklos, you're welcome!
Hi Nik. I always value your videos because you give the best advice for our Etsy store. However in this video and under point #4 you emphasize the importance of having duplicate listings. As an artist, I am puzzled about that. I feel is like asking Leonardo da Vinci to dublicate the Mona Lisa. How can I dublicate my inspiration? How can I design a piece of jewelry and make it 10-20 times? The dublicate listings is very challenging to me. However, I will wait for your advise... Thank you again for a superb video.
Hi there, thanks for your comment, I hear you! I have a video dedicated to one of a kind sellers. It's not a perfect solution however use the parts that will work for your business.
Link below for the video:
th-cam.com/video/zPzDptXFMoM/w-d-xo.htmlsi=EWbk9DaO4CQrRwer
Great tips, great videos.
But Etsy is not just about handmade and POD. The platform is also for selling vintage items.
Obviously the stock of 20 tip doesn't work with vintage.
Could you perhaps make 1 or more videos with tips for sellers of vintage on Etsy?
Would be great. Thanks.
Thanks for your comment, I have covered this at length in the video below, please watch it!:
th-cam.com/video/vkAR0L0Dzlc/w-d-xo.html
I 'll watch the video. Thank you Nik.
Enjoy!
I had a meeting cancelled today so guess what I'm doing :) Thanks for the tips. I have one listing in drafts waiting to be published and another design ready to list. I have a lot to do but these are great tips. I've written them all down and will start implementing the changes I need to make as soon as I finish commenting here. I've even created a notebook just for your tips. I love checking out your videos to see what suggestions you give next.
Quick question. Do you recommend using comma's in your listing title or leave the words running together? Thanks so much for these videos. You provide stellar advice. Practical, achievable and you're so full of encouragement. Thank you.
Thank for the feedback, I appreciate it, yes I would use commas, it makes things easier to read.
@@etsyconsultant thank you very much. Another Etsy TH-camr recommended no commas so I changed all my listings but nothing really happened so I'll change them back to comma's. Thank you. I really appreciate your tips.
Love your channel, Nick! Can you expand on how best to write the alt data for the listing photos?
Hi there, thanks for your comment. All you do is copy the first line of your listing, its easy.
Going to rewatch and write all this down and implement as much as possible!
Hi Ellen, great to hear!
Excellent tips! I have watched 100s of videos on Etsy SEO, nothing comes close to your straight to the point tips. Thank you very much for sharing all this.
I am checking your website now to see what you offer!
Hi Maher, appreciate your comment. Let me know if anything comes up!
My favorite sentence "Listen to my instructions carefully." (retired teacher)
Yes, and still people do not listen!
Glad to have found your channel. I’ve been plugging away at my pod shop for an embarrassingly long time with nothing much to show for it. I was delighted to hear your strategy of 10 listing in 5 days as I am in the throes of implementing it myself already. So validation is great and your post is really energising. Thanks. I’m definitely going to follow all 10 suggestions.
Hi lynne, Great to have you here and thanks for your comment!
Awesome! So psyched to build my store when I receive the hardware
Great to hear
Great videos. Have to revamp EVERYTHING
You got this!
You're a real one. I appreciate you immensely sir
Thank you for being here and the support.
Wow another great tips! Thank so much, you are the best!!!
You are so welcome!
I sell vintage items and some handmade vintage style items. I am stumped on how many photos you can list for instance of a vintage pattern. Or what kind of video to do. You can't show it in use, the only other option is to show the front and back of the pattern...which is in the photos.
Hi, just do what you can, adapt what I talk about to your business.
Your videos are super helpful.
I only sell one-of-a-kind originals.
Do your you have advice for that scenario?
Hi, yes, watch all of this video:
th-cam.com/video/zPzDptXFMoM/w-d-xo.html
Hello nice Videos, the best tips of all ! I have a question.. What do you mean with section link?
Hi there, thanks for commenting. I mean the links to the sections in your store (the categories in which you organize your listings). You can find them on left side panel in the main page of your store.
What do you recommend your brand video include? And what kind of video is recommended for digital items or print at home items?
This depends on how you want your brand to be perceived, and what you want your overall brand image to look like. If you need help with branding feel free to book in for a call with me, and I will walk you through it, step by step:

Thank you so much for your videos. What about videos with digital downloads, specifically wall art? Thank you
Hi, I may get to it at some point, I have so many requests to work through.
Best advice, i learned a lot from your content.
Thanks Muhammad
Brilliant, many thanks! :)
You're welcome!
Great Advice Nik, yesterday I followed some of you tips for my digital download stores (alt text, changing primary images). Hope for improvement. We'll see how it goes :)
Nice work! Keep us posted!
Another great video, thanks Nick!
No problem Sarah!
Great Tips Video! I have shared it. Thank you! My question is about seasonal items. You mentioned previously that non selling items bring down the "score" of the shop. What is your specific recommendation for seasonal items? Should they be deactivated, or does one need to remove them completely from the shop? Also same Q. in regards to poor sellers? TY!
Hi Pam, great question. So, for seasonal items that sell, leave them up in your shop. For items that do not sell you can deactivate them.
Hello...I just found you today...and I can't stop listening to you. I have actually paid someone...but, just listening to you...I am so ready to do what you have asked. I know that I must get my store, in order...and I have been on ETSY for 3 months...but just went live, last week. I will do what you said...and I do have 21 listing (only 3 have sold...and that was to my family (without my Titles, and my Tags...well, they are completely WRONG). I sincerely want to thank you...and will let you know how things are working...in about 2-3 weeks). (Will it take that long to get ETSY to relook at my store?) No matter, I will do what is necessary. I am in Florida...and so happy to be here and starting my ETSY store. Have a blessed evening. 😇🙂
Amazing, let me know how you progress, I am interested to know, thanks!
I'm not sure if I understood correctly your last tip, about puting store link and section link. Did you tell us to put in description of an item? I just need confimration that I understood it correctly. Thank you so much for all your videos and help, I'm thinking of taking that short 5 minute zoom session with you.
Hi, yes that is correct. Sure, you can book in on the link below:
etsy-consultant.com/services/5-minute-zoom-consultation/
I’m so thankful that I found your channel your content is amazing!!! I’ll do all things that you say and my question is, I have 350 listings should I add an all listings a video ? My store is 4 1/2 months old and I list since 1 month the same listings and copy it with another mockups 1 with flat shirt and one with a model or I change the seo. Is this the right way ? Thank you for your answer and your powerful videos!!!
Hi, thanks for your comment. In short, you have listed way too many items, way too quickly, and this will tank your conversion rate. What you have done is not a good way to build an Etsy store.
I would save yourself a lot of time and confusion and book in for a 30 minute consultation with me so I can sort you out here. Links are below if you would like to book:

Great video!Really practical useful tips 👍Thank you very much for sharing 💜
Hi there Yulya, you're welcome!
Super tips, thanks. -Elizabeth
Thanks Elizabeth
Brilliant tips thank you, I was going to ask if we should implement these asap or spread them out, eg tip 1 do it now or do one listing a day.
You're welcome Sarah
Great video! New to Etsy and still learning. Will watch all your videos and try to implement them gradually.
Awesome! Thank you!
You are such a lifesaver 🥰. Going to add store and section links right now!
Great to hear, keep going!
@artnmind, @etsyconsultant. In my descriptions, I've added links to related products and to the opening page of my store. But I can't figure out how to link an entire section or category. I'm hoping it's easy! Any information would be greatly appreciated, or maybe you can point me in the right direction. Thanks!! 😊
I’m so happy for found you !! Thank you so much!!!❤
Hi Daniela, I appreciate your comment! Feel free to reach out if you have any questions, I'm here to help.
What are the do’s and don’ts when it comes to editing listings on your main seller to avoid it messing up your ranking
Hey SFG, don't touch titles or tags, and I wouldn't touch photos either. Honestly, unless there is a very good reason to do so, don't touch the listing at all.
@@etsyconsultant Ok thank you, what about descriptions? Sometimes I change small bits, I don’t touch anything relating to keywords, or anything at the top where the main information is just usually my processing times change so I have a section for that which I mass edit and change sometimes would this affect anything?
Fantastic advice as usual. Thank you
You are very welcome Gill.
