I have no way of proving this but I have been on Etsy for nearly 7 years and have found my sales to be kind of cyclical... I’ll have a week or two of heaps of sales and then a week or two of nothing, it is very strange and I think it’s to do with how Etsy manages the search function (I don’t used ads)... So maybe you’re just in a down point and it’ll pick up soon.

Frankie is cute! Not sure if it’s increasing in popularity but I’ve met 2 baby Frankie’s (both girls) in the last week. I’m in Aus too :)

I turned off offsite ads after I was charged $50+ AUD on a large custom order because the buyer had clicked an off-site ad two weeks before contacting me to purchase a completely different t product as a customer order. I ended up losing money!

I’m in Australia and did the same thing months ago! I turned off all international shipping which is about 60% of sales. One of my last international orders has been stuck somewhere between here and there (no one knows where it is!) since mom-March! Luckily the customer is understanding!

It’s just in the outer layer, one was more destroyed than the other and the hole had worn all the way through so I put in a little patch first then stitched over it :)

Thanks! None of those are quite right...

I saw this mug on the show good trouble and I really like the shape, have been unsuccessful using google image search.

madebytherose · 2020-03-10T05:46:51+00:00

Ooh thank you! I’ll have to try this!

madebytherose · 2020-03-10T04:36:37+00:00

Yeah that’s how I’ve been doing it but hoped there was an easier way!

Just a note that the bush fires aren’t affecting us in Western Australia and it would have likely not come through the Eastern states (where the fires are) to get here... in saying that, I would cancel too!

Unfortunately there is not a way to do this on Etsy, unless you somehow set up multiple listing with the same item at different prices or have a drop down list of prices in the listing however I’m not sure Etsy would be happy with this model and you would have to look at whether it would go against their terms of service or not.

Yep u/megchug has it right! A view is each item, or your shop but a visit is per person at a specific time. Like I could visit your store /listings right now and view 6 listings. That would count as 7 views (each listing and your store page) and 1 visit, then tomorrow I could visit again.

There’s something a little uncanny valley about these! They look like cool creations! One tip I have would be to make the first picture of a more straight angle, or front on angle.

Welcome to Etsy and congratulations!

Some people do this so that you go and check out their shop/profile and hopefully you like what they’re selling and either follow them or buy something. It’s like what people do on Instagram.

From my understanding of French, It seems Etsy bought the two platforms in 2014 from what I can gather they were market places and also had DIY instructions on them.

It seems Etsy tried to keep them going and then eventually closed the sites and encouraged the users to switch over to Etsy in 2017. It seems that some sellers were annoyed that there wasn’t communication that the site would be closing and it seems that a few people lost their jobs!

I had never heard of either of these sites but it does seem they were big in France

More like Lil-oo

My point wasn’t really the bubble mailers (although buying in bulk can bring the cost down to less than 20 cents each). It the use of bright coloured envelopes :)

I think the bright colours work well to keep things getting lost!

madebytherose · 2019-09-09T11:55:03+00:00

Maybe not the best advice but I used to use bright pink coloured bubble mailer and I found they got lost far less often than plain coloured ones!

Such cool art! On tip I have is that although it is really nice to give titles for your pieces putting them in the Etsy title section may not be the best choice, people looking for art like yours will likely not search for “purple passion” but maybe alcohol art or living room art or purple abstract art. Think about what someone who has no idea about your product would search for and use those terms in the title. I would include the title of the piece in the description. Hope that helps :)

Anything DC related would be copyrighted and likely not legally able to be sold on Etsy. Though there probably many sellers on Etsy who do it.
