I love your energy; it's contagious. You're the first Etsy expert I've found on YouTube, and yet I don't feel that I need to seek out others! AND you don't clutter your videos with annoying little gimmicky inserts, as so many on YouTube are fond of doing. I'm now subscribed. Thank you for the gold nuggets of content! Bless you.

I think one of the most important things to realize or questions we need to ask ourselves are:
-Is Etsy the ideal platform for your future business?
-Are you passionate about your business?
-How much will it cost you to setup?
-What are other services could I use to sell my products and/or what services can I use to link to my Etsy account(Printify)?
-Do not go out and find random products. Find something that you can relate to.
-Determine your business model
So many people want to find the easiest way to make it work but just because it’s an online business does not make it easy! It also requires more then basic research!

I wanted to Thank you very much for driving a million people over to my "niche". Rving and related products in the RV and camping niche are pretty good sellers most of the time. But unfortunately just that niche alone is just not enough to make a solid living off of. I firmly believe you really need about 4 different good selling niches to make a very good living. I personally sell in the RV and camping niche and I do pretty well. This particular niche was my 2nd niche market and I currently have about 1200 different designs up on about 12, 000 different products, spread out over 4 P.O.D platforms. This niche alone could not support me and my family and I have just about every type of design imaginable from Boondocking to living in a van down by the river. But all together with my other niches, Military aviation, Cars and trucks, Farming tractors and heavy equipment, Patriotic and 2nd Ammendment, Funny Birthday t-hirts for all ages, California surf and skate and a few hundred designs in the Holiday niches as well. I believe this is really the only way you can make a solid living doing P.O.D. Sure you can make good side money with just one Lazer focused niche, but I'm talking about life changing money for my family and I. I currently have over. 21, 000 designs on around 750, 000 products. It has taken me 6 years, since September 2016 to get this far, the key to it all is consistency and alot ( years) of long nights designing and uploading, rinse and repeat, over and over again. But that's what it takes to make it in P.O.D. The long nights and consistency is the reasons alot of people give up and quite, its definitely not a get rich quick business, and most people for some reason think it is? Think of your P.O.D business as a retirement plan. If more people would just stick with it, they would get there, but unfortunately most people start like gang busters P.O.D and after 4 or 5 months they don't see thier designs selling that well and they give up before they even really started. I personally didn't make $1000 dollars a month until my 14th month. I thought I would comment and put in my 2 cents and maybe motivate a few people out there. Take care Brother. Hawk out!!

So glad I found your channel! You are direct! I can follow your advice easily! I tried watching other Etsy seller videos and those ppl were either fibbing (thanks EverBee) or too wordy.😹 So, Thank you for keeping it Simple! 🙌

I started my shop on February 4th, and as of today, only a friend of mine bought a product, so it shows i have a sale and to leave a comment, to help with my shop. That's it. I have 31 listings, whenever i have a new idea, i make and upload a new listing and what i've noticed, is at the start, i had lots of views. It was when my product titles were an endless combination of words. I saw SEO advices on YouTube, your's too and i tried to squeeze as many things as possible in the title, that would describe said listing in all possible ways. But one day, when i had enough with no product selling, i tried to be a consumer myself and try to search for something and scroll the products. What i noticed, is i never ever, not a single time did i read the whole title of a product. On the contrary, i said to myself "Come on, just say what the product is in a couple of words, people. I can't pause all the time, just to read whole paragraphs of titles". And that's when it came to me. As a consumer, i want a fast title, which i can read in one second as i scroll, so i immediately know what the product is about and if it's worth clicking on. So i went back, edited all the titles of my listings, and instead of a phrase dash phrase dash phrase dash and on and on, i wrote a brief title of a few words, that best describes the product and instead included everything i deleted, in the product's tags. Which count exactly the same way for the product's SEO. Now the problem is AFTER i did that, my product views fell drammatically. I wake up every day and immediately check my shop, just to see only a few views from last day. So even if i actually made it easier for the consumer to click on my product, they don't. Why? Do they really want to pause their scrolling all the time to read titles? It doesn't make sense.

Thank you for all of your suggestions. The first time I tried it didn't work out. I'm going to try again and implement what you said.

This has been hovering around my feed for a bit now. I don't think I've ever watched any of your others. But since I'm trying to revamp my Etsy page... I thought I might as well check it out. Glad I did. And your number six is touching on right where I'm at. I'm trying to plan out my holiday goods and when to start them. Off to check out that video about holiday hacking. And subscribed!
