Set a Goal for June

[#1]

Hi there,

Setting a goal (no matter how small) can help you accomplish more. Take a moment to settle on your goal and then share it here. By writing it down and sharing with others, you'll reinforce your commitment to it.

A goal can be anything from listing a new item to reaching your 100th sale. For example, this month my goal is to work on my Etsy shop for at least one hour a week. Might sound minor, but those hours will add up!

When sharing your goal for June, please introduce yourself and share how long you've been selling on Etsy.

Happy June!

My june goal is to make a second sale by the end of the month,

Additionally to design and purchase materials for at least 5 products I can make repeatedly and consistently as alot of my products are one off because of re-used materials.

I made my first sale this month, so would like to continue and make another by the 30th!

3. Organize my store.

Hi! I am a new seller on Etsy. I have been quilting and sewing for years, and I decided recently that I want to share my passion by selling some of the items that I enjoy creating . I have been slowly building my site, but I have not sold any items yet!
I am a substitute teacher, and so my school year is just coming to an end. I hope to spend the summer adding more items and making my website more marketable. Wish me luck! :)

Thank you :0)

@Michelle Larkin SEO is search engine optimization. It's how to optimize your website, blog, or Etsy shop to show up better in searches, for example where your page places on Google, Yahoo, or Bing when someone searches something relevant to what you offer.

Hi, my name is Ana and I am re-launching my shop.

I haven't had a sale since September last year, so my goal for June is just 1 sale and listing 40 brand new items.

I have set a 15% discount code: JUNE2014

Good luck everybody with hitting your targets!! :)

[Former_Member]

@ CartoCreative ~ Thank you so much for explaining what SEO is. I apperiaicate you taking the time to write to me.

I have reached both my targets for June so i'm very pleased. They were to reach 350 sales and to also reach 350 people favoring my shop. I have 351 sales and 354 favouring my shop so far :)

[ZamarutJewel]

I loved reading what everyone is upto,so inspirational!

My goal in june is to give more attention to my packaging and come up with an economical plan for better packaging.I offer free shipping in the US,so its a challenge.

The second goal is to go upto 200 listings,add more variety and pay more attention to detail with photography.

Goodluck everyone!!

My goal for this month is to add at least one new item to my store and get five sales per week. I do mostly custom work, so it's hard to really advertise that. Any ideas would be welcomed warmly! I'm new to etsy but not to business, not sure how to really market my etsy store... that's a goal too! To learn how!

[MeghanandJulie]

I just reached my 300th sale!!

[Former_Member]

Hi!
I've been actively selling on etsy for almost a year (in July), and my June goal is to reach at least 100 active listings. I'm at 76 currently and making like mad!

I sell vintage ephemera, handmade journals, and gift packaging that I've either hand made or curated.

Best of luck to everyone with their goals!

Hello,
I'm Giulia and I joined etsy about three years ago, but I really really started to work on it just a year ago.

Since the beginning of june I've been re-branding my shop with new items, fresh ideas and much more coherent products.

[Former_Member]

My goal is to get from the 112 listings I've been stuck on for months and months to 120+.

I'm Ailsa and I live in Basingstoke in the UK. I've been active on Etsy for 3 years this summer I think!!

[Former_Member]

My biggest challenge is the shear amount of inventory I have to list.
I am unsure how to price for profit, so that is what is holding me back.

I am going to take it 5 items at a time each week for the next 3 months.
That should get me to 60 items!

I'm a stamper and paper and digital crafter in Rowlett, TX and have been selling since 2013, although I join in 2011.

[KristianJessie]

My goal is to launch a new silver jewellery collection by the end of June.

Also I'm going to launch painting collection in my another shop - www.meriekeegallery.etsy.com in Autumn. Now there's like a mess. I hope I can finish some more paintings this month.

[earthstonedesigns]

My goal is to redesign my shop and focus on items for children in one area. I love making small hand woven bags but have had limited success selling them anywhere. My jewelry sales have been sporadic and I detest the time it takes to photograph and list things...ugh...time to put my nose to the grindstone if I intend to sell any amount on Etsy!!

[Former_Member]

My goal is to improve my photos by having my friend take pictures of them in real models and to keep improving on my seo and descriptions! I also would like to make a few sales this month!!!

[Former_Member]

Already into the middle of June? LOL. My goal is to add more listings.

[WinterMorningCrafts]

My goal for the month of June is to list 3 new items. One is listed, two to go.
I'm from Ottawa and selling from May 2013.
