This team is dedicated to sharing business advice in a supportive environment. From the day you first set up your shop to the day you think about quitting your day job, there's so much to learn. Luckily, one of the best things about selling on Etsy is the support and encouragement from other sellers.

Whether you’re brand new to selling on Etsy or you can count the years on both of your hands, you probably have some milestones that you’d like to celebrate with all of us. Post your milestone in this thread. Every month, we'll highlight some of our favorite posts, so join the celebrations!

Please also introduce yourself in your post if you’re new to the Etsy Success Team—describe what you sell and how long your shop has been open.

Here are some examples of milestones (but remember that all personal milestones big or small are worthy of celebrating!):

• You made your 1st sale / 1st international sale / 1st custom order
• You reached (x) # of sales
• You added (x) # of listings in your shop
• You have (x) # of views / favorites / admirers
• You received positive feedback from a buyer
• Your shop was featured in the press or in social media
• You recently opened your shop
• You’re celebrating your Etsyversary

I reached 200 views yesterday! My shop has only been open since this October 16th so this is a great personal achievement for me and I hope it will lead to success in the future!

Re: Official Success Celebration Thread!

Just met one of my modest goals. First time ever I just had two separate sales in one day. Bonus: One of the sales was for two of my pillows. Double bonus: They're MY pillows, not my husband's. :-) He just started making things to sell on Etsy this summer, and he's raking in the dough and killing me. The only things I've sold for months is my vintage stuff, not my own creations. Love him, but was feeling ever so slightly jealous ...

Re: Official Success Celebration Thread!

Hi everyone, my name is Sam! I am quite new to the team! I am celebrating because I just added more than five items to my shop today. I thought it would be a good idea to begin adding a few holiday items! Although I am very happy about my new additions to my shop, I have had no orders yet. I joined one other team (beside this one) and have been very active in the offered activities. My shop/listing views and favorites have increased a great deal...I have 242 favorites in the last 30 days...no sales. Will they ever happen?

Thanks for listening! I have enjoyed reading these posts :)

Re: Official Success Celebration Thread!

Hi everyone I set up my shop last year however it's only over the last 4 weeks that i've really had the time to focus on it with adding items and networking. I'm celebrating as today I have 100 admirers in the same week that I announced 1000 likes on facebook and 3000 followers on twitter - really feel like opening some Champagne! Please take a look at https://www.etsy.com/shop/Jeweltailor and if you have any comments or tips they would be appreciated!
Have a wonderful Saturday all

Re: Official Success Celebration Thread!

I can add a little celebration. I got a repeat order from a client. It is special because she lost one of the prayer bead sets which she bought from me, and she'd gotten so attached to it that she wants to get another one.

I'm very happy that she valued something which I made so much! :-D

I was so excited when I got a message from the editor of Handmade Magazine that my Mint Chocolate Brownie soap was to be featured in the November Issue of their magazine.

It pretty much made my year. :)

Re: Official Success Celebration Thread!

I had a little milestone a month ago getting over 10 sales! That's big for me :)

I am very excited as I also bought my own giclee printer and now able to print on demand. It was a big investment but I decided that my dream was worth it!
