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 4000th sale! I'm absolutely over the moon. When I opened I could never have imagined such a number but little by little I learned and grew and now here we are:) So blessed to be able to run my shop while I grow my family. All the best to everyone!

Celebrating my Etsyversary today! It's been one year since I opened my shop, and I've loved every minute of it :) My name is Alexandra, I make jewelry and original artworks. I am so looking forward to continuing to grow both as an artist and business woman, working on my craft and my brand each step of the way. I feel like I've already come so far and learned so much in just a year, it's crazy! Thank you everyone for making this an incredible artists community ♥

Re: Official Success Celebration Thread!

Well, I have been opened almost 3 years this June. I had sold 591 items and received 169 reviews (about 1/4 of all purchases leave feedback). I am just happy to be able to help people get nice, affordable, quality items that are hard to find.

Re: Official Success Celebration Thread!

19 sales online, over 80 in person in my first month!!
So excited. I decided to make this shop kind of on a whim, and its paying off in the best way.
Its great to feel like all my hard work is paying off.... although there are still times where I feel defeated and like giving up.

Its a never ending learning experience, and I'm appreciative of it all

Re: Official Success Celebration Thread!

Hello all! I´m a graphic and product designer from A Coruña (northwestern coast of Spain) Mostly I work as freelance graphic designer since a few years ago, but also I´ve been learning skills to craft my own products. I started a few years ago with my product design studio but it´s now when I think I have the correct business idea. My dream is to work in this full time!

My shop is dedicated to modern indie products, objects for the home and personal use, handmade with local materials that I can access to (wood, concrete, 3d printing and now working with technic textiles)

I´ve opened my store in january and last sunday I made my first sale to a buyer from Vancouver, Canada. It was a great feeling! :) now I´m working on new projects to list and my goal is at the end of the year, have enough information to seriously think about full time working in this, what I love!
Thank you ;)
