New to etsy

Hello everyone!
I'm new to etsy and having trouble with getting my items noticed. Does anyone have any helpful hints? I'm trying to not get discouraged..
Thanks in advance

I am fairly new as well. I started to panic when I wasn't getting any sales. I joined a few teams here on Etsy. I opened an instagram account @myfeltnation. I got a facebook page, facebook.com/myfeltnation. I started doing giveaways, the last one I did everyone (on facebook) could tag people for extra entries in the giveaway. Make sure you are using all of the tags in your item listings too! Good luck, and don't give up!!

Thankyou so much for responding and giving some much needed advice! You've given me some great ideas! I'll definetly be setting up some accounts and trying to get my name out there.
You've been so helpful and I really do appreciate it!

I'm new on here as well, only been open a couple weeks. I'm not panicking yet about not having any sales or anything because I know that I need to promote my items and work on my shop and add more listings and all of that. I will have to take your suggestion and start doing a Facebook page and all of that as well. I really want my business to be a success but it's hard when you have so much good competition! Good luck to you both. I'll be sure to check out your shops and I'd love if you took a peek at mine!
