Official “I need a boot camp buddy” Thread

[#1]

Boot camp launches on Thursday! Would you like a partner to bounce ideas off of, give you a hand when you need it, and keep you on track through this year’s Holiday Boot Camp? Connect with on of your Etsy companions, reach out to a member of one of your Etsy Teams, or connect with each other in this forum thread. Let other members of the team know what kind of buddy you would most like to partner with. Are they also a jewelry artists? Or maybe you’re looking for someone who also works with upcycled materials? Or maybe you want to find someone nearby?

Wondering what the Etsy Success Holiday Boot Camp is? More info here:

Hello!
I'm in for a Boot Camp Buddy! This will be my first Boot Camp and I would love to hook up with someone who has some experience! I am into sewing with old upcycled fabric and antique fabric and I sell Vintage. This is going to be fun!

[DeborahJoyDesigns]

snugglymonkeyco- do you want to be my buddy? BTW I sent you a convo if you don't want to that is okay.

Hi,

I would love to have a boot camp buddy! I'm new to Etsy, joined Etsy in August and English is not my native language. I'm not sure whether I can handle it but I'll do my best. I would like someone who has a bit more experience and preferably also making jewelry. Thank you!

Looking for a photographer buddy to help push each other to succeed and hold each other accountable! I see a couple other photographers in the thread but not sure if they want a newbie as their buddy! I need someone to push hard and work hard as well. We will share each other's successes and be their for support! I would be willing to buddy up with a non photographer too!

Hi!

Hi,
Looking for a booth camp buddy. I make candles. My partner doesn't necessarily need to be experienced just focused. My plate is full and overflowing. Want to take my shop to new heights, this is my first Booth Camp.

@Caroline @ newhopebeading.. I need a buddy! This will be my 3rd holiday season on Etsy. I'd like to be more ahead of the game and organized this year. Let me know if you'd like to pair up.

[Former_Member]

not new to etsy but too few sales. hope bootcamp will help me turn the corner. willing to work hard and help my buddy/buddies to persevere and live inspired -- through the holidays and who knows...

I am focused on bookmaking and polaroids; intuitive, rustic style. looking for someone with the heart of a treasure hunter.
