Many people start an Etsy business to sell their amazing creations.  A lot of sellers have the goal of going full-time with their Etsy business or at least making a nice chunk of change each year to supplement their income.  When that doesn't happen, it gets very difficult to keep moving forward.  I can totally understand that frustration because I've been there.

I'm back with some more Etsy news for ya!  Here's what's covered in this week's episode:

Etsy CEO Josh Silverman announced new fall tv ad campaigns expected to start in November. 

Etsy is redesigning the seller handbook with a new homepage coming in the next few weeks.  Their goal is to make it easier to find information and make it more concise.  

Etsy also launched a virtual holiday selling event called Etsyup where they talk about trends, marketing, and search.  You can view this video and the announcement from CEO Josh Silverman on www.etsyup.com

Like any e-commerce platform, Etsy restricts what you can and cannot sell.  It's important to know what these restrictions are so you don't get your listings taken down or even worse your shop suspended/closed.  

Some of what is restricted may be obvious such as trademarked items or guns.  But I really wanted to do this episode to talk about the things that are less obvious.  These are the items that you have to be careful of accidentally selling.  And unfortunately, the excuse of not knowing won't help your case if your shop gets closed because you're selling a restricted item.

This subject may be controversial, especially in the social media age.

But I also know that many new Etsy sellers put a lot of their time and energy into social media when they should be spending it on their business.  Social media can be a distraction and prevent you from moving your business forward.  

In today's episode, I want to discuss if it's the right time for social media in your business and give you some great alternatives to improve sales without it.
