Please help........I am new to Etsy

[Former_Member]

I just recently opened up my Etsy Shop. How do I know if I have a sale. Will Etsy notify me? I have searched the site and could not find an answer.

Hi Janice, welcome to Etsy :o)

You should get an email notice when you get a sale.

Some recommended reading:

The sellers handbook here: http://www.etsy.com/blog/en/2012/the-seller-handbook

Also just browsing through the help section can provide you with a lot of helpful information:

I have mine set up on my phone. So when I get a sale, I get an email, an Etsy notification and the sound of a cash register....

The first time I heard the cash register, I almost wrecked.....it was the best feeling ever!!!!

Congrats on your new shop and good luck!

Also besides the email, if you log into your etsy account and then look at the top of the screen. There is a "Your Shop" tab with sold orders below. The sold order section will list all of your sales.

You can also view your "Shop Stats" and that will also show you if you have any orders + the activity on going on in your shop.
