In this episode of the Etsy Seller Success podcast, host Dylan Jahraus talks with Etsy seller Frances Robinson. Frances shares how she went from sporadic sales to two bestsellers and over $6,000 in revenue—all sparked by a single $1 listing optimized with the Etsy SEO tool (EO).

If you’re struggling to grow your shop, feeling stuck in low sales, or overwhelmed by the tech side of listings, Frances’ story is proof that massive growth is possible with the right tools and guidance.

She walks through how she taught herself embroidery via YouTube, started her shop as a hobby, and overcame her tech fears to confidently use EO. Frances also shows live results and explains how she scaled her listings from 2-hour frustrations to 10-minute wins.

Whether you're just starting or trying to revive a slow season, this is an episode full of encouragement and practical steps to take your shop to the next level.
