·3 years agoI have reached my first three months of selling on Etsy and have sold 80 of my vintage items. Really surprised and feeling very luckily at how well things are going. My goal is for that to continue. In two days i will have reached 90 days since my first sale so I'm hoping I become a star seller. So far it's looking good.

·3 years ago@VELATOWEL It will happen .... it's a matter a patience .... sales are always slow for new stores, but even the more established stores are struggling at the moment. Keep going and good luck.

Welcome to Etsy! Please don't be sad. Linnie is right; you will get sales, mostly when least expected. Best Wishes!

·3 years agoHola, estoy feliz!!!!! hoy he hecho mi primera venta aquí, llevo muy poco con mi tienda abierta y me ha hecho muy feliz que alguien se haya enamorado de una de mis pulseras y haya decidido comprarla.
La venta ha llegado por la publicidad offsite, ha sido una sorpresa porque no sabía que esto existía.
Espero que tengáis un día estupendo!!!!
Besos, Elena

SimpleSweetForBabies
·3 years agoAfter doing a lot of image/photo updating in my shop in July, August was a great month. I got my 100th sale and to celebrate I made a video of myself making the item. I posted it on Instagram, Facebook, and on my Etsy page. Which led to two more orders of the same item. It's nice when hard work pays off.
