Thank you! This was very helpful in making my decision for a new business. I’m going to start with Etsy and level up to Shopify later if my sales get high enough.

Hi, I have been enjoying your videos I am thinking of starting an Etsy shop… I would like to join your course but cannot seem to find the information on where to register and the cost. I am in Australia. Thanks

Hello, thank you for your great videos. I've learned alot from them. I'd love to see a video about how you set up woo commerce with your wordpress site. I have a wordpress site for a blog but I've been hesitant about using woo commerce to sell products because I've heard it's not as easy to set up and maintain on your own if you're not too tech savvy. I'd love to hear your experience. Thanks!

Hi, thanks for a great informative video, I have been selling on etsy for two or three months and have noticed through watching my etsy ads figures that most of my traffic comes form off site ads that etsy pushes themselves, not through search on the etsy platform. If this is the trend then it makes sense for me to move to shopify asap and pay for google ads that I control (and i get to see more search traffic data that etsy won't show me) as this seems the way people find my goods anyway and like you said, less distracting competition on etsy. wondered what your thoughts are on this? Do you pay for google ads on your non etsy business sites? Have you leant alot more doing this? Looking forward to more of your videos :-)

Hi I don't know if you're aware, absolutely no one is talking about it but some people are reporting that the initial fee for Etsy is now $29 to set up shop. This shocked me.
