One of the things that really sets hobby Etsy sellers apart from sellers who end up running a really profitable business is planning and goal setting.

Winging it can definitely make you money on Etsy. We all start our shops that way. But when you sit down and really plan what you want your year to look like, you set yourself up for a business that makes a lot more money.

Listen to this week’s episode to learn how to do that.

If you aren't getting any traffic on Etsy, it is easy to follow the thought process that leads you to running ads on Etsy instead. You aren't getting any traffic, so if you just got a little bit of traffic you could start making sales.

So today's episode is about why that is not a good strategy and why spending money on Etsy ads is not a substitute for organic traffic.

I saw a post in another Facebook group a couple of weeks ago that was talking about how to price your products so they get people to buy.

And if you’ve ever said anything like this…I want you to know you’re asking the wrong question here.

So today I want to answer this question for you. Can you build a successful business on Etsy without social media? Listen to find out!

If you’ve ever told yourself that you’re doing your product business the “wrong” way then this episode is required listening.

One of my core beliefs for Etsy sellers is that you do not need a website until you are full-time in your business. But in place of that an email list is a necessity in order to take more control of your marketing and build your return customer base.

If you’ve ever thought that your customers would hate hearing from you on your email list then you need to listen to this week's episode.
