In this podcast, Brandon Timothy Wong shares his inspirational story of how he left a stable full-time job to become a full-time Etsy seller who owns four shops and generates multiple six figures a year. He talks about how his journey started ten years ago but it has taken him around five to six years to become a full-time seller. Brandon discusses Etsy ads, ranking, product niches, profit margins and more, emphasizing the need to understand the ‘business of art’ and not just the creation.
