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 Etsy Friends, I just recently opened my shop and made my first sale. I'm enjoying reading about everyone accomplishments. I know I have a lot to learn, any advice? How much money should I spend on advertisement? Also, I've have 405 visits to my sight in 1 month, is that good?

I am an artist. I'm new to Etsy, but I have opened my shop. I haven't had any sales yet. Hoping for advise. Many of my creations are a unique blend of impressionistic art and detailed brushwork. Check out my shop I would love feedback

Re: Official Success Celebration Thread!

Hi everyone! So, I made my first holiday sale of the season last night and I still only have half my inventory uploaded. YAY!! I need some advice though. I sell holiday and other ornaments in 2 variations. One is a more traditional clear ornament style and the other is a multi-use drink coaster that can also be used as an ornament to hang. Same design on each so I don't want to pay for double listings. The problem is that when I split my thumbnail to show both the design is too small. I have varied the thumbnail between the 2 versions on my page but if someone does a search and only see one or the other, I may lose sales. How would you handle that? Check out festiveflirts.com and I would love all suggestions. Thank you:) Happy crafting!

I had my best month ever in September and October is already beating it (Thanks to an art fair I did last Saturday) which raised money for a local organization for mental health issues. It's going to be a great holiday season!
