As many of you have heard, Etsy is making a lot of changes. We are trying to keep up with those changes in beneficial ways to the team.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1. Etsy is trying to make sure hearting and viewing have less relevance in search results. It won't hurt us in any way, but if they succeed, it won't help our shops at all. So we are working on ways around that problem.

a. We will continue to play the daily threads until we see them as totally ineffective.
2. Etsy is permanently removing Treasuries on October 5, so the Treasury thread will be deleted at that time.
3. The emphasis appears to be shifting to Social Media views, hearts and marketing and we MUST change with the times or be left behind.
We are working to incorporate Social Media threads and strongly encourage that you play them as we move toward the shift that is coming.

4. We are heading into the Holiday Season, and now is a good time to make sure that your shop is ready.

This is one of the biggest and most meaningful changes that Etsy has ever made.
Let's get ahead of the curve by thinking outside the box by reaching out beyond Etsy to the millions of shoppers that use social media.
