Heather, I want you to know that I have been watching videos for months. I have been scared. I became an information gatherer instead of a seller. I have finally decided to do it. Thank you for making your videos. I am 54 probably older than your mom… but I want you to know that you are in an inspiration. I just lost my job on Monday and I am out of time. Time to stop being a spectator and get in the game. Thanks for your knowledge!
Heather if you could PLEASE do a video just on how to go about returns and replacements and refunds and when what situation is okay or not ok to do so,that would be great.Also how do you know the requests for returns/refunds are legit?Thanks❤️
My experience: when I used Etsy ads with low cost, around $25, I had almost no sales. When I put budget for my Etsy ads up to $500, I had great success with sales. However, the revenue compare to Etsy fees and ads cost, put me -$1200, even though I had 5 sales daily. Even though I tried to limit ads only to listing, which sale. So, yes, disappointing. Looking to try 4th Qtr, if the same, close the shop. For new sellers it is struggle, no with sales, but Etsy fees and ads costs.😊
Since the Etsy machine automatically reduces our photo sizes, what might be the best resolution to start with for our product photos? Most sellers are not photoshop-savvy. 😊
1:1 ratio is what I personally use. Ideally, 2500 by 2500 pixels I start with on all of my photocards and I'll adjust to lower quality JPEG if the photocards are above 2MB. Etsy does accept other ratios for photocards, I just prefer the 1:1.
Do you happen to know what happens with an old unused (for a few years) shop? I sold masks during pandemic then didn’t pivot and let shop die. Can it be resuscitated or should I opt for new (which potentially comes with a temp bot shutdown)?
I had a shop that I opened in 2017 and stopped using a few years back and decided to list back again recently and it’s seemed like everything worked smooth and I had a few sales already. They did reserve my funds for 90 days again since it had been so long since I used my shop.
This means Etsy makes money with the Ads and with your Selling fees? Its will be much better to pay a monthly fees like in another platforms but you can stress-free selling.
Hey , I just watched your video and I must say that it was really informative and well-made. I was wondering if I could help you edit your highly engaging videos and thumbnails which will help your video to reach to a wider audience and increase your subscribers and viewers.
How do you go about returns and replacements is it best to state a no relturn policy ? and what’s the best strategy on this to apply to both apparel and other example for cups etc thanks
I prefer offering a return and exchange policy, having one also increases conversion rates. I think it's good to offer one for at minimum of 14 days past delivery. Thanks for watching!❤
For POD there’s really no point unless you’re on a cruise with no wifi. Lol I can handle pretty much everything from my phone. Handmade stuff I imagine would be difficult to do that.

What is the best size for photo mockups? I find some many different sizes and it’s confusing.

What if you look up your listing to see if it's ranking, then click on it to check it is that inauthentic traffic
