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!

My first great milestone is finding this group. My shop has been open since March 1, 2016 and I have one sale which was a sympathy purchase. She felt sorry for me.

I am getting lots of forced views but not organic views. I"m still working on things and am very hopeful my shop will start to thrive soon.

Re: Official Success Celebration Thread!

My boutique has been open for officially 1 month this week! I received my 8th order today, as well as an inquiry from a blogger who is interested in doing a collaboration and featuring one of my creations!

I am feeling extremely encouraged today and motivated.
I truly LOVE what I am doing, since I've opened my shop, I am more excited to wake up every day and I truly am happier! It's not easy being a stay at home mommy, and it's nice to finally have something that's mine and that I am truly passionate about!

Xoxo

Watch the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon interviewing Miley Cyrus tomorrow night (Friday September 16th) & you can see her wearing one of my rings!

She has the biggest collection of isewcute jewelry & that makes her my #1 fan! I'm over the moon happy. Can't sleep since seeing the photo on her instagram account.

Re: Official Success Celebration Thread!

I'm still anticipating 250 sales, which has been such a long time coming for myself. I'm only five sales away. When I did recently reach the 145 sales mark, I took the time to celebrate too!

Also, I'm really excited to be only 12 reviews away from 100. That feels like another exciting milestone.

Re: Official Success Celebration Thread!

Hello out there my fellow creative godesses! I am so super excited to announce 3 things I'm currently celebrating about my limited etsy experiences: 1) I finally took the advice of friends and fam and opened my very first Etsy shop! Who hoooo!!! Yeah for me! 2) I celebrated reaching my first shop goal by adding 20 handmade items to my shop listings! 3) I reached my milestone of having 50 views to my shop! This is fun! Any advice for a newbie like myself would be greatly appreciated! Thanks to all for your support!
