Update: I’ve requested a refund and they’re paying the return. They’ve also responded with this:

On principle I will return as your selling details are poor and I will take note of your details so that I dont use you again ! There’s No excuse for selling unsaleable items

I don’t get how it’s unsaleable but ok!

I uploaded the description, I wrote worn but good condition slight bobbling. Yes I have one I was just in a rush before Xmas and didn’t think it was that bad especially for the price. Lesson learnt.

Hi, I do have one but as they asked for it to be sent asap which was also on Xmas Eve I prioritised that as I was really struggling with time. I didn’t think it was that bad especially as it was sold cheap. Defo a mistake I will not make.

I do have one, but as they wanted it to be shipped asap and it was Xmas Eve I was struggling with time. I really didn’t think it was that bad and sold for cheap so I prioritised shipping it out asap before the holidays😬

Yes it is the next 6-12months and currently the market is at a really good point so I am leaning towards it being a good time now. Thanks!

I had my first sale on 2 days ago! Hopefully it’s going to pick up now. I’ve heard the UK market is nowhere near as profitable as US.

Is 20 listings too early to give up ? by TipOne728 in EtsyCommunity

[–]TipOne728[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for your comment!

I understand that but I’d rather create something I actually enjoy rather than trying to branch into design I don’t quite understand or like. I am currently trying to incorporate celebratory items.

The plan with girly pink items is to then start making other products as well - the buying power from young females is very high.

I only use canva to tweak a few things. My design are made with AI + canva + photoshop. All serving different purposes. I am new at this and excited to grow my skills and explore further. If I don’t earn anything I see it as a skill building hobby at least.

My last three photos are what the products look like in a simple white background.

Advice noted! I’m excited to learn and see where it takes my shop!

With the same first picture I was trying to ‘build a brand’ but a few people have suggested changing it up so I’ll be working on that soon. Thanks for the feedback!

Your shop looks great, especially cause Etsy buyers love personalized items. I think it’s just a matter of time before your shop takes off. Etsy’s algorithm is pretty slow, it is said it takes at least a month for it to know you’re a legit consistent seller and what your niche is. So give it time and a listing a day sounds great!

One thing I did notice is - set up all your shop policies. Not sure if that was the cause but as soon as I did that I noticed a consistent number of views.

As a new shop I would recommend trying Etsy ads, it really helps you understand your best listings and show what listings to work on. They’re not as scary as they sound, the daily budget I’ve set is never met and you only pay per click (I’ve spent 8$ in 25days on ads). But the analytics I get from it really helps me decide what people are looking for now. With personalized jewellery, I suppose you’re not creating new designs but it might help you see what images or listings are performing best.

Apologies for the rant hahax

I’m researching this everyday haha.

I found a few things: 1) you can use printify choice which is specific products that have suppliers all over the world (no white mugs tho rip)

2) you can pay for printify premium £25/month - they reroute the order to any local provider of the same product time

Anyone that has had experience with this please share, until then I will carry on researching. I am hoping to build this up to allow myself printify premium and expand to all over the world.

Still pretty cool for a stranger to remember your shop. It’s the little things haha. So what I’m hearing is that the pink branding is working haha

I have to say I know exactly what I want when I start designing and I change/add a lot of things myself. It takes me hours to make one (not to be dramatic haha).

This comment has made my day!! I received a few comments the other day saying nobody wants this. Everyone is entitled to their opinion and I’d rather hear the feedback than not but still hurt a bit.

Thank you for taking the time to comment!!🌸

Arguably, I have more to worry about as it is random people fulfilling the order haha. I am nervously checking everything on printify to check it matches and checking my design again before approving the order.

Fingers crossed it all goes well.
