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!

Hello, everyone!

I opened my Etsy shop in 2011, but it was inactive since the end of the 2016. I started to put more and more listings and I worked hard to succeed in photography. I had to wait for about a half a month for my first sale and when it came I felt extremely happy. Now I have reached 50 sales! Also, I reached 100 listings recently :) I'm really motivated for further work.

Good luck with your shop! :)

Re: Official Success Celebration Thread!

Hi all! Towards the end of last month, I got a message from someone who said they loved my work and could I do a custom necklace order for them to wear to a wedding later in April. So I asked her what she was looking for, took that information and made 5 necklaces for her to choose from. When she saw them, she loved them so much that instead of one, she bought 2 necklaces! That had me pretty stoked!

Just made my 150th sale! It took me over a year to reach 100 sales, but the next 50 sales happened just within 6 weeks. I am very happy!

Re: Official Success Celebration Thread!

I've just reached 560 active listings today! Couple that with 340 sales since we have opened which means I've done a total of 900 listings in just under a year. A small milestone!

Re: Official Success Celebration Thread!

My shop is active only few months. Only 2 sales. I think my products are only for watching not for buying. But I hope my time will come.

Elizabeth, 3500 sales, that's incredible! Congrats!

I've had 120 sales in the first 100 days of 2017. Not a bad start to the year!

Re: Official Success Celebration Thread!

My 6th ETSY-VERSARY is today!!! Lots of changes in that time, but it's still easier than running my own website. (Which I did for 9 years before I moved my shop to Etsy.) Time flies when you're having fun! :)
