Etsy Trends for 2024, best products to sell on etsy in 2024, why you're failing on etsy

[ArtisticEcho]

I’ve been selling on Etsy for a little over 3 years now and the demand is overwhelming at times. I finally got my husband to join in on the process and help me with managing everything. At times I want to quit but I believe with his help that might change my thoughts. I would love to see more videos of you and your husband Wes on how you manage everything on a day to day basis. What role does Wes play in the business and what would be a good way to manage the business as a couple. Great Video! Thanks for sharing!

[jnjhawaii]

I loved how you two communicated all those questions and gave real and honest answers. It’s great to see a husband and wife team on the same page and being successful!!

[danacarpenter]

I love hearing about your dynamic with Wes and his point of view … he should definitely hop on more often. It can open up perspectives 😊

[kylaallen]

What to make for Etsy in 2024 answer-- 2-digital recommendations and 1-kids school / sports items for the wealthy. None of these were the creative art type products that one thinks of when thinking Etsy. From an artists perspective, that's a bummer but it's a sign of where Etsy is going.

Thank you, Dylan! ❤ Yes, we want Wes back! 🎉

[garthplamping-mqju]

I really enjoyed having Wes in this video. Fantastic communicator. I would love more content that involved the both of you. It is funny as ask if we want more videos on how to bring your spouse on board. That is exactly what I have been wondering about. My wife is quite concerned, but still supportive of my Esty journey. But she is definitely worried about the future since I am only just making products for my shop that I am hoping to launch within a week or two. Thank you again for this video and really enjoyed Wes' perspective.

I love seeing the two of you together. However, just continue to make these videos as you've been doing: occasionally. Dylan, what you have been doing is working. I do admire that you continue to test and evaluate your strategies and ask for feedback. Your videos have helped and inspired me. Thank you. And God Bless You.

Like you both answering questions. My hubby and I are an "etsy' team and we like to hear the different perspectives.

I'm the hustler, he's on the couch. I run everything from concrete statuary to hand knits to plants to laser engraving and more. I work full time corporate bs 5 days a week just for the health insurance. Am I tired? Hell yes. Do I feel good about what I'm doing and enjoy it? Hell yes!

[sabrinalepine]

Big Wes fan 😂 I love the mutual support you two have. My husband is my biggest fan and is also endlessly encouraging ❤️

[CherylStelling-ry]

Great video! Would love to see Wes come back. :)

[angelover]

This is great, my husband and I work together the time! But we are both creators at heart and so it’s fun for us! 🖤 it’s actually how we met too 😂

[kylisation]

Hi there, can you make a video about how to make Etsy respond to your emails or how to talk to a real agent to get your issue solve as a seller?

[BlueSkyandSunPls]

Dylan is a real gem and so is her course and her team! Much Love

[RhondaGagesCreations]

What is an average price to have shop reviews?

[TeknomanomegaX]

For your program, do I have to be on webcam?

[Judy-ow]

I don't know if this is the right place for this so forgive me if it's not. I am new to Etsy and I've made some sales. My problem is that Etsy hasn't paid me and it's been a few weeks now. My payment accounts, etc. are all set up correctly. I've tried contact Etsy via the Chatbox but nothing is working. Does anyone have any advice or know where to turn to? I don't know what to do now since I've paid for the products thinking that Etsy would pay me my funds but now I'm rather stuck.
