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?

Hello there.

I'm living and working in Nepal and i make pouches, bags and clothings (not yet on the shop) with local "ethnical" fabrics.

I'm trying to create this as a fair trade and oranic brand to work in cooperation with the local craftpeople of the region.

I'm looking for someone who would also be in organic / fair trade/ traditional enthnical fabrics and who could help me get it all together and runing regularly with a bit more profesionalism.

Maybe someone into clothings and pouches/ acessoires two so we could also exchange tips about how to picture our stuff the best ?

I an originaly from France where i studied art print (etching, wood carving etc) and book making.

If you feel at home with my description and you feel we might match, get in touch ! And lets the "work in process" be done ... !

Allez au boulot !

NB: if ever this could bring something, i love Mexican culture. Just sayin..

Hello all. I am looking for an Etsy buddy to work with this holiday season! I craft jewelry and am working on coming up with a plan to drastically vamp up my holiday offerings from seasons before. I've been on Etsy for a while now, but only have had the time in the last few months to update my page and add more items and promote. I craft fashion jewelry and am looking to expand on my custom gift box offerings. If there is someone out there who think that we'll be a good fit, please send me a message! Thanks.

Oh no! I just only found out about this! I really want a boot camp buddy too. Perhaps someone who has some experience in jewellery making and has a different style than me. I'm hoping this person can help me with ideas and motivate me despite of my lack of sales.
Please convo me, I'd really really appreciate it : )

I'd love a Buddy with some etsy experience. Our small shop was 3 months old on 10/25 and we just had our 100th sale last weekend. Someone who will help me critique my descriptions and tags and work on getting noticed by buyers so I can stop paying to be in these BNR's so much just to get some sales.

[Former_Member]

I am new to Etsy and am a crocheter.....would love a buddy.

[Former_Member]

I NEED a buddy. Looking for someone who is a seasoned Etsy seller to tell me how they made Etsy work for them. I suppose it could be any product but jewelry would be ideal. So excited about this boot camp thing!

thanks!!

[Former_Member]

i need a buddy :) i just launched my shop selling my original photography prints. i'm having trouble marketing and getting the word out, so are there any seasoned etsy sellers willing to be a mentor to an open-minded mentee?

[Former_Member]

I would like a camp buddy that would like to learn along side me?

[Former_Member]

I know I'm really late... but I hope that someone there has the need to partner with me. I've got a background in advertising and marketing... and it isn't helping me a bit, because the virtual world and social media don't follow the same rules. Help!

[Former_Member]

Hey there everyone,

I am coming late to the party but I am very excited and eager to work on this boot camp, I have so much I need to work on! My goal is to get through the whole boot camp in four weeks so if you want to still do this we can make it work! :D

Send me a message if you want to buddy up!

I would love a bootcamp buddy! I would love to become connected with another oil painter with some experience to help me connect with my potential market across numerous price ranges. I would really appreciate someone with promotional experience or ideas to help get in front of customers.
