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

Re: Official Success Celebration Thread!

I just made my first sale last week. Yay! I have been open about 2 months. I hope this is the first of many more sales to come.

Re: Official Success Celebration Thread!

I'd been listing my handmade hats/head pieces for brides on etsy for over a year. A few weeks ago I decided to try selling the same kind of antique lace trims that I use in making my hats.

A little over a week ago, I had my first sale - It's taken awhile but finally happening!

Re: Official Success Celebration Thread!

#1 I took a big step in January by listing my Brevard Beach Trash Art assemblage piece titled "I Love You Heart Mold," which featured a Jello mold found on the beach. This piece sold! "Firefighter's Helmet," a 9-11 tribute, is now in the store featuring a faux finished plastic firefight's helmet, a piece of burned palm, mangled metal, and plastic beads. Over time, I hope to list more 2011-2012 completed works and add some new ones to the series. This is a new direction in my vintage store!

#2 In June, Goldfinch Treasures will celebrate one year in business. My goal for the end of the month is to have 150 sales. With some creative help from the Teams, I hope to reach my goal. Thanks for all your help with my endeavors.

Hi there! My name is Charlene and I am new to the group! It's so amazing to see everyone's success. I have had my shop open since 2012, but haven't put the effort it needed to be successful. I sat down last night added 24 new listings, cleaned it up a bit in hopes to becoming successful.

Re: Official Success Celebration Thread!

Hi everyone, just want to share my success on ETSY. My shop was set up years ago with a few listings that were not properly tagged or promoted. After setting up my shop last week, under a new name and following the ETSY guidelines with tagging, marketing and promoting, I became successful. In 4 days I made 4 sales, one is a custom order. Yeah...ETSY works!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
