Aloha everyone,
I haven’t sold and Etsy about five years and I’m starting all over again. I’m hoping to get some feedback from this group and I’m looking forward to getting to know you all. I haven’t made a single sale yet and i opened my shop a couple weeks ago, and I’ve actually made a sale on my mercari
fairly quickly. I’m working hard at Instagram, but I’ve been slacking on my Facebook because the app isn’t as easy to use with my Etsy account as Insta is. I have also been approached by a company called gemsby and I’m starting to wonder if maybe Etsy is just too saturated isn’t the best selling platform anymore. I have been deterred from listing too much to build up my shop because of the fees until I figure out if I fully want to invest in Etsy or not.
I find it really tough in the sales department. Around the end of the year I do really really well, but any other time it's been slow. Fees can get out of hand. I have gotten wholesale accounts from potential customers looking at my shop on Etsy. I find it great advertising. Good Luck, Kathryn
