3 BIG Etsy Changes Including Seller Purchase Protection!

Uncategorized Jun 14, 2022
 

More Etsy changes are here!

ALL online platforms are constantly changing and will always be changing.  It's important to keep this in mind when selling because if you don't like change, you won't like selling online!  

I'm a glass half full kinda guy and I like to give Etsy the benefit of the doubt with changes.  I do believe that they try to do what's best for buyers and sellers, not because they are the Mother Teresa of companies, but because it impacts their bottom line if people are unhappy.  This also doesn't mean that they won't get it wrong from time to time and have to fix it.  

With all that being said, this episode covers the newest changes so you know how they'll impact your business.

Can POD Shops Make Money On Etsy? Pros & Cons

Uncategorized Jun 07, 2022
 

I get asked a bunch if POD shops can actually make money on Etsy...

My answer is yes and no.  Just like any business, there is no guarantee.  Some shops make a lot of money and some make no money.  Much of a POD shop's success comes down to the owner.  There are a lot of variables that help promote success or failure.  

Today I want to break down some pros and cons of starting a POD business so you can decide if this model is right for you.  After that, much of your success will come from how you set-up and run your POD business.  I do believe anyone can run a successful POD business, but it won't come easy or fast.  

Etsy sellers know how important reviews are to their success.  I want to help you get more 5 Star reviews with my easy to follow review formula.  Get it here:

Etsy Pattern VS. Shopify

Uncategorized May 24, 2022
 

I get a lot of questions about sellers wanting to start their own domain outside of Etsy.  Now, with so many options this is fairly easy to do, but how do you know which option is best for you?  Two of the most common options with Etsy sellers are Pattern and Shopify.  

I have personally used both and figured it’d be good to break them both down for you and give you the pros and cons of each.

This episode is an epic battle of Pattern VS. Shopify!

Etsy SEO Update! Listing Descriptions Now Included In Search Ranking

Uncategorized May 18, 2022
 

Etsy search has changed to include listing descriptions.  This is an important SEO change.  

Here's what's covered in this podcast:

Do’s and Don’ts:

-DO try to incorporate relevant keywords in the first few sentences of your listings.

-DON'T copy your title verbatim into your description.

-DON'T just list keywords you want to rank for.

-DO write sentences talking about your product that naturally incorporate relevant, important keywords.

-Do write for humans not robots.

-Do continue to include additional, relevant information about your products for your buyers such as specs, washing instructions, ordering instructions, etc.  Just add that after your first few sentences describing your product.

You can use bulk editing tools such as Vela to speed things up.  I’ll include the link in the show notes.  You can bulk edit in Etsy but it doesn’t allow you to do put your listings in a list form and edit each one...
