It would be great to see update after 1 and 3 months. Thanks for supporting 'newbie entrepreneurs'!

Such a small percentage of Etsy shoppers even read the description as evidenced by all the questions you will get that are clearly answered in the description. On the mobile app the product description is not even displayed unless you click the see description link. Focus on pictures and videos, aside from that great video.

You neglected to highlight the Etsy fees.

Something else to look at when reviewing your impressions count is that list of search terms that your product appeared in the results of. Is there something that you see showing up there consistently, that you then check through other searches you make, is there a product that you can create that better fills that set of queries than what else is in the marketplace.

Yes, 30 day review, as well as lessons learned towards making the store better.

Bi-weekly updates on the store, particularly click-through performance, would be nice to see.

Unless a person already has a popular social outlet where they can push products to fans, it's very difficult to get sales without spending a lot on advertising.

It'd be interesting to see if social media traffic to an Etsy product page makes much difference. For instance, would the advertising dollars be better spent on Facebook or TikTok? Maybe the click-through rate is better on Instagram or the ratio of sales to advertising spent is better on TikTok instead of advertising on Etsy.

Spending $15 to get $18 minus fees is either a loss or a pittance in revenue. It'd also be interesting to see if there's a breakthrough point where the income suddenly increases and why.

Cool project! There's a lot of valuable info in this for entrepreneurs.

Great work. Thanks for sharing. Will love to see how far or big you. Can take the store in two months.

[glennfelpel]

Would you be willing to do a video like this one and walk us through a project where we have a design and want Slant 3D to print it for us. Where does one start in this process if we are not interested in an Etsy store at this time. But thank you for this video it is very well done.

[Lionnnn.n]

I'd love to see how this Etsy store continues to develop!

[agrariancraftsleather]

These are good tips, took me a while to figure out some of them on my own over time. I’ve shared this video with a few people I know. I would like to see more information about the shop progress

[kennethbeal]

Thank you! Looks good. Couple typos I noticed on the landing page: "Connect Your Etsy Store to our Print Farms with out Print and Ship Plugin" -- should be "our" instead of "out". I also see inconsistent capitalization in the red text, and white text, at the top.

A bit further down: "Speced for 3000 machines. So we can ensure that you product is made and shipped quickly." Should begin with "Specced"; and, "you product" should be "your product".

These are minor nits (but important for "first impressions"). Thanks again!

[barbaraviehmeyer]

I think this host did a great job. I am curious about how etsy pricing works and bottom line profits for items. Hopefully that will be included in future videos!😁

[rodrigob]

Looking forward to the 1 month and 6 months later follow ups.

[ardemus]

This is great, and I'd like to see the ongoing results.

[cdoodev]

Great selection of books in the shot there!

[satrawa]

I definitely wish an update on the shop ❤

[LoriAnneBrown]

I do not see the catalog under teleport dashboard - did you change this?

[a]

Trying to do it, but Etsy gives me an error without explanation. Customer service is also really slow to reply and sort out the issue

[circleofowls]

This is priceless information for a new shop, thanks! How is the new Austin facility progressing?

[robertl]

was there ever a follow up on this video?

[MitzyGoose]

I'm curious if you have insight on what types of 3d printed things sell. Useful/practical things? Household things? "Things that look good on a shelf"? I have some hobby parts that I've sold on Shapeways but it was hard to expand due to the increasing cost of 3D printing.
