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

I value support from friends and family. I am so happy that they are always my first buyers. But whenever total strangers bought my crafts I feel so happy.

Re: Official Success Celebration Thread!

I just passed 700 in sales!! I started back in 2012, and when I say i am a 'computer challenge" that is an understatement!! lol thanks to my friends and family that have helped me set this up, I never thought i could do it!! (and i'm still full of questions!! LOL) I always value any constructive criticism, so if anyone has any "tips" etc. , I appreciate any and all advice!

Re: Official Success Celebration Thread!

Celebrating 8 years on Etsy. It has been wonderful.
Before I came to this marketplace I was selling my hand made, hand painted custom name trains at area craft shows with great success. However, I began to get tired of the show circuit. My niece mentioned a place called "Etsy" where crafters could sell their hand made wares, and I was sold!

Over the years Etsy has made a lot of improvements and streamlined so many features which have made selling in this marketplace even easier. There are a few features that could be added, but I am pretty's sure they are already working on them!

I am happy to say that I have developed, not only a great following through the days of art and craft shoes, but also through my sales here at Etsy. I have regular clients who return each year for another unique gift for their loved ones. During the past 12 years I have created over 4,000 complete custom name trains for my clients worldwide. (Not 4,000 letters, but rather 4,000 completed name train sets!) I feel so incredibly blessed.

Thank you Etsy for this opportunity to meet new customers and create custom keepsakes for their loves ones to enjoy for years to come.

Re: Official Success Celebration Thread!

I'm happy to be healthy enough to still paint at 84 years old! That's my celebration...

I can stand up, but not walk, so my wheelchair gets me around. I'm brand new to Etsy, so any help, encouragement or advice is greatly appreciated. Here is my shop, if you would please be so kind as to visit it and let me know what you think:
