Etsy selling, the ultimate guide

It’s here! I have finally finished creating the Etsy Selling Ultimate Guide course for you, and I am so unbelievably exited to share it with you!

Why I Created Etsy Selling: The Ultimate Guide

I created this course because I want to make a difference to your small business. I am so sick of seeing amazing small businesses and makers who create the most utterly gorgeous things not getting the visibility and sales they deserve.

This was me 7 years ago.

My sales on Etsy were dire. I hadn’t really put in the effort with my shop. I set it up in 2010 and left it sitting there, hoping that customers would find me and buy my stuff. I knew my products were great- we’d sold 300k+ on notonthehighstreet.com. We’d never had to put the work in there- orders had always just landed in our inbox. Why would Etsy be any different, right?!

WRONG!

So I went on a journey of SEO and product photography discovery. I got crystal clear on who I was selling to, what they wanted to see, and how to get them to see (and buy) my products.

Now I’m a top 0.1% Etsy seller, with 76k+ sales.

And it’s not just the greetings card niche that this stuff works in. I set up a second shop a couple of years ago and that’s just hit 3k sales, selling digital products. And my third shop sells wooden crafting shapes and that just hit 1k sales.

This. Stuff. Works.
