How are Perth Etsy People Going?

[DarkestRavenDesigns]

Hi all
I've been dabbling in this Etsy space for about a year now and haven't had a huge amount of success. Things have just started to pick up though, mostly due to the fact I think that I started offering free domestic shipping.
Do people use this team thread? I can see a lot of spam posts but not much actual interaction. Are there any in-person meet ups? I'd love to get to know other Perth creators, share stories, learn lessons...
Also, does anyone else use Redbubble? Its really hard to work out how to title my work and then write appropriate tags. Any tips appreciated!
Chantal

Hi Chantal,
I’ve been wondering the same too! Seems to be a lot of spam on this team. I had a look at your shop and your items look lovely. Keep going with what you’re doing and I’m sure you’ll get more exposure soon. I started my shop a few months ago but I’ve made more sales in markets rather than Etsy. I’d love to have a chat about how you’re doing. Would be nice to have someone else to talk to about Etsy. Feel free to message me here or email me. upcyclistlane@gmail.com

Cheers,
Michelle

Would incorporating the postage charge into the item (to show free shipping) be more enticing to people do you reckon?

Hi ladies. I’ve had my Etsy shop for almost 18 months now and haven’t really had a lot of business through it especially since they introduced the “new look”. If you do want to meet up, I’d love to join you after the school holidays. Paula - Wool Elegance 💕

Things aren't too bad for me in W.A. Sales have dropped since Xmas though. Finding local markets and swap meets the best place to be, but sometimes the stall fees are a bit pricey.
