The Handmade Shop: Etsy Business Strategy for Makers with Physical and Digital Products

Sellers generally make 3 common mistakes during the fourth quarter.

And we’re going to talk about all three of those today.

If you listen to the episode and this all sounds a little overwhelming, I want to invite you to join us in The Handmade Creative.  Doors are opening to the public on August 24th.

The handmade creative is my signature Etsy course.  It hasn’t been open to the public since October of last year.  But at the end of August, I’ll be holding a 4 day holiday prep training event for students in that group. We’re going to plan your entire holiday season live.  Schedule your sales.  Prep your social media.  And have all of your listings scheduled and SEO on point so you can take advantage of Q4 sales on Etsy.

This is an amazing chance to be so prepared for the holidays on Etsy.  Click here to get on the waitlist.  Doors will only be open for a few days.

I get so many questions when I talk about product lines on Etsy.

What they are? Why they matter? Who cares?

So I wanted to do a full podcast episode on the topic.  They really are that important for your shop to grow.  Listen the the episode now.

Need help with this?  Doors to The Handmade Creative, my signature Etsy course, are opening on August 24th.  In this course, I teach you how to do keyword research so you know buyers are looking for what you’re selling, to get those listings found in search using SEO optimization, and how to market them once they’re listed.  The course hasn’t been open to the public since last year and if you aren’t getting consistent sales on Etsy yet, then this course is designed to get you there.  Click here to get on the waitlist and get notified as soon as doors open!
