EPISODE SUMMARY:  

In this episode of "How to Sell Your Stuff on Etsy," I dive into the whirlwind of my recent experiences as a work-at-home mom juggling multiple online businesses while navigating the challenges of family life. After a brief hiatus due to my husband's unexpected business trip and a bout with COVID, I'm back and ready to tackle your burning questions in this FAQ episode.

I kick things off by sharing an exciting announcement: my coaching group is currently available at a discounted rate of $147 for lifetime access. This group is designed for Etsy sellers at all levels, providing a supportive community where members can ask questions, participate in challenges, and receive one-on-one coaching from myself and other experienced coaches. I read heartfelt testimonials from members who have found motivation and encouragement within the group, emphasizing that whether you're just starting out or looking to scale your shop, there's a place for you here.

As we transition into the Q&A segment, I address a variety of topics that are crucial for Etsy sellers. I discuss the importance of building an email list, highlighting tools like Everbee and MailChimp to help you connect with your customers outside of Etsy. I also touch on the benefits of including listing videos, especially for handmade products, and how they can enhance your shop's visibility.

Next, I tackle the complexities of running an Etsy shop with a partner in different countries, cautioning against sharing login credentials due to potential IP address issues. I provide guidance on whether to combine different product lines in one shop and share my thoughts on diversifying into platforms like Redbubble.

Throughout the episode, I emphasize the significance of creating a strong volume of listings, particularly for digital products, and the balance between seasonal and evergreen items. I encourage listeners to focus on improving their skills and designs rather than getting discouraged by initial setbacks.

Finally, I address questions about pricing strategies for low-cost digital goods, the impact of renewing listings, and the potential for seasonal shops. I remind everyone that success on Etsy is a journey that requires patience, creativity, and a willingness to learn and adapt.

Join me as we explore these topics and more, and remember, there's plenty of room at this table for you. Let's cultivate the life you dream about and kick those roadblocks right out the door!
