Question about Etsy Merchandising Desk..

[ShiShiSupplies]

Hello Y'all...

I have been wondering why monthly Merchandising Desk is being published so late.. for example today is may 7th, still April Merchandising Desk is running.. any particular purpose for that? Does anyone have an idea..

Best of sales ..

I'm not sure the answer to that - sometimes I go back and look at last year's Merch Desk article to get an idea of what is coming since all the holidays stay the same.

I totally forgot about it! I actually don't remember if I received last month's or not. :( I actually really enjoy reading them!

I went looking the other day, I dunno.

I love reading them too but the May list should be listed towards the end of previous month so that we can be prepared... I di dnot know there are last years' list still being published.. I htought it was few months back..

Where do you find this?

I also noticed that last month it came about a week into April, and this month it's still a no-show. Kind of disappointing. :-/

I don't understand why it could not be published at the end of the previous month to give us the most time to use it. As it stands we are lucky to have three weeks and the month is partially gone before we see it.

When they originally were doing these , they were usually published the last week of the previous month, they highlighted unique themes (though some did transcend), and even had a color guide for sellers and treasury builders. More and more these are cut and paste, or form posts that are significantly losing value. I would like to see the Etsy Team put more effort into these.
