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

My shop name took on new meaning for me this past year. I have finally been able to revamp my listings after nearly a one year hiatus. I lost my best friend to cancer and as she was also my most ardent fan, it was difficult to refocus on crafting. Hoping to get back on track with enough items to choose from for Valentine's Day including bracelets and necklaces to mix and match with my earring designs, all inspired by her memory.

My sales were up 85% in 2016 over 2015. My shop opened in 2010. I sell small vintage items focused to mixed media artists. I believe that good customer service. Treating people better than they expect when there is a problem, lowest shipping prices available, complete descriptions and good prices are key. To be seen on ETSY it pays to be active, active, active every day. Thank you ETSY for being a venue I can count on.

Re: Official Success Celebration Thread!

I just want to celebrate life. ETSY gives us so much freedom not only to do what we love but also a possibility to travel more often while still working on our lovely crafts. In turn, I have just noticed how I became more diverse, get more knowledge, have more time and so oooooon. Lovely! I put so much heart and effort in each and every piece I make & totally did not expect to sell so quickly! All the hard work paid off and I am super happy. Just thought that will be a great day to say a big THANK YOU <3

Re: Official Success Celebration Thread!

I have sold 4 items in 2 years from both my shops !!! Whooooo ! I even pay for a website "pattern" from Etsy....not one generated sale from there. It has been a year for that. I have done everything by classes I took, handbook, which I put in Cancel Pattern and gave me 3 links that gave me this. Totally disgusted...Glad everyone is prosperous....I am going to start selling in Siesta Keys....and ending this.
