Hi everyone,
Last week we announced that we're giving everyone some extra time before attributes become a factor in search. Attributes will now become a factor in Etsy text search on March 27.
We also launched the Etsy Small Business Contest, where you can win $10,000 USD to help grow your business! For more information or to start your entry, go to the official contest site here: etsy.me/2nsw1Sf.
Our Difference Makes Us campaign celebrates the creativity and differences that make Etsy’s community of buyers and sellers so unique. In that spirit, we asked you to get creative and use your own unique products to remake our latest commercials. Submissions came from all over the world, and we made these videos featuring our favorites. Watch the ads here: (www.etsy.com/differencemakesus/a-different-ad)
Excellent customer service is key to any business. Share your top customer service tips for selling craft supplies in the Forums here: (www.etsy.com/teams/31311/etsy-studio/discuss/18301483/)
