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've always loved Etsy, and being a girl from Brooklyn, I knew it would catch on. I signed up years ago but did not take the time to set up my shop or tags correctly. Last month I revamped my shop, added more of my Art, Dolls, Art quilts & Messenger bags, all Handmade by me. I made 4 great sales in the first week! I am ecstatic, Etsy works. I'm telling all my creative friends to set up Etsy shops, and I've been meeting great artisans in these forums. Brooklyn Rocks!!!! www.etsy.com/shop/ARTISTPECHE

Re: Official Success Celebration Thread!

I'm super excited because I just finished my first custom order and the customer loves it!!! It's really exciting to be able to make things that are meaningful and beautiful. It's also been really exciting for my kids to see the process and they are proud to know that what I'm making is going to be hung, proudly, in someone's home.

With our first shop we can't make sales form months, but with this seems to be better, yeah!

Re: Official Success Celebration Thread!

Hi Cake Topper Shop -
Your site looks great and is a wonderful start. Here are my thoughts to attract buyers:
- The photos you have are pretty good but since you offer different colors, I would recommend having a picture of the colors available.
- It is also difficult to see exactly how large the cake toppers are, so perhaps a photo with a ruler next to the cake topper would be helpful.

More listings are better than less, so if you offer the item in a different color, you may want to create a separate listing for the different colors to start. Once you have a solid customer base that might not be necessary.

Best of luck! You make nice items.

My milestone is that I reached $1000 in sales last month in my shop!!

Re: Official Success Celebration Thread!

I had a backyard party yesterday and sold 5 necklaces. I haven't made a sale since January. It was nice to have people getting excited about my items and giving me positive feedback. Now, hopefully word will spread.
