Why is Etsy Lying to Us?! And Who Does This Benefit?
Man i love the way you explain, Thank you.
Thank you!
George if you run FB ads why don't you just lead the buyers to a shopify account?
Customers trust Etsy because they know they're protected-if something goes wrong, Etsy has their back with refunds. With Shopify, you’re on your own to build that trust, which means investing more in marketing and social proof to gain the same level of confidence.
Let's build the business of your dreams, together: skool.com/etsymentor
Thank you, George! Try Imagen 3, too, although it's more suited to poster generation.
Gordon, what hashapped to the Audio on your Videos? I have to.play them at 100% volume and then it's hard to hear clearly. It's been the last few videos too. Hope you can sort it as it's difficult for me to watch them
I’ll look into this-I'm sorry!
Thank you George !
Thank you George, this was super helpful!
Thanks for watching!
I found it very helpful, did not know any of this about FB, thank you.
I’m planning to add a full tutorial on UA-cam, along with a more detailed, in-depth version in the Skool course-so stay tuned for those! In the meantime, feel free to check out my older FB video here: ua-cam.com/video/RCUabDopKkU/v-deo.html.
I've never had much luck with Etsy Ads. I'm going to try FB ads when I get my listings optimized. Thank you!
That’s the right way to go!
Great video, George! I love Etsy Ads-The cheapest CPA on the market!🤑
What would be the suggested budget you start with? Also have u tried fb ads on products in etsy that requires from the customer to message you their photos? Like personalised pet portrait.
Run 3-5 ads at $5 per day each. Adjust the details in each ad to perform A/B testing and see which one delivers the best results.
I never had a solid grasp on where and how to advertise, but now I finally understand the differences between the various platforms. I ran Etsy ads for a short time, but I don’t think my listings were fully optimized, so I turned them off after just a few days. I’m still not completely confident in my SEO skills, but I’m getting there-especially with the help of your Skool community and the upcoming course. I truly believe progress is happening! Thank you for this incredibly informative video. I also loved the quality-great visuals, and the background music was perfectly balanced, not too loud. 12/10!
Thank you!!! You’re the first one to like this video-seems like a lot of people are mad at me LOL. I’ve got an SEO video coming soon, but the course will dive even deeper into SEO than any video I can put out since it gives me more time to explain things.
@@EtsyMentor George you always release helpfull information and FREE 🙃
@@EtsyMentor Hahaha! They’re not mad at you-some people (a lot, actually) just aren’t capable to admit they still have a lot to learn. And that’s okay. You just keep doing your thing 😎. (I’ll probably have the SEO video and module on repeat!)
where can i find more about your facebook stretagy?
Here’s a video I made a while back on FB ads: ua-cam.com/video/RCUabDopKkU/v-deo.html
❤❤ great info as usual
Facebook ads are expensive AF, and the people on there are just looking to shit on products being advertised. It’s a very toxic user base. I blew through over $100 very quickly and all I had to show for it was some troll comments on a product that had sold on Etsy and gotten positive comments on other social media. Etsy ads are cheaper and have gotten me a few sales, but very low conversion rate
Have you checked out my video on how to run FB ads?
I hate FB so I stay away from it. When you said it's amazing the amount of info they have on their accounts.. yeah.. that's why. I did, however, just try to create a page for my business and it did a puzzle human-verification yet followed up with a requirement for a video selfie? Umm no. I am not trying to open a personal account and my personal self has nothing to do with it. I don't want that on there. That's frustrating. What the hell even. Is that what creating social media accounts is going to come down to? I guess I'll stick with Pinterest and Etsy ads. Sorry for the venting. 😅 Good video, as always.
I’ve never had them ask me for a selfie, but they have asked me to get notarized before lol. Still, I love FB ads because the targeting is so specific-you can really dial in on the right audience.
I am conflicted on that one. I hear what you are saying. However, I noticed that if I do not advertised I have one order, however, with ads I have a lot of traffic and more orders. Which tells me that ads do play role in sales. From another side, I agree that the listings should be really optimised. My personal, exper is that it also depends on the time of the year: when to run ads and when just let it go by SEO.
I never said not to run ads. The video just breaks down the pros and cons of each platform, so people can figure out the best way to run ads for maximum benefit.
So you add the initial design and have them provide the text details of the wedding/retirement party/engagement?
Yes. You can set this up using APOD to make the entire process automatic.
@@EtsyMentor - APOD? I only saw 2 sizes/prices on Printify. Do I need 2 reach out to them to see how to increase the quantity?
Sir i need etsy shop i have my 50+ best sellers design , my shop is suspended some reason so please help me
You can email me. It may take me a couple days to get back to you, but I promise I will!
I love your videos BUT!!!! Please fix the volume!!!! it is too low!!! Thanks
I ran a poll during my live, and 95% of people said the volume was fine. I even boosted the audio by 15db. I’m trying to figure out why most people can hear me clearly, while a small few can’t. Not sure if it’s a setting issue or something else. I promise once I figure it out I’ll let you know how to resolve this issue!
Sounded fine to me.
I sell digital frame mockups on Etsy, can I put them as handmade?
You'd select the digital option, then choose whether you want to create it yourself or have someone else do it for you.
3:55-4:30 ,Did you count the price for a white mug. Where are the cost of printing?
Yes, the cost was included. I just forgot to deduct the Etsy fees for the wall art. But either way, this video isn’t focused on the products I’m showing. It’s a guide to help people learn how to find gaps on Etsy that they can use to enter specific niches or sell particular products.
George can you give me an idea on other rooms
Yes, I plan to do this!
Hi!! Here's a new subscriber!! One question... If my target audience is Gothic style... Would it be okay to photograph my products on dark backgrounds? I think that since I make them in bright colors, they won't catch my client's attention!! Thanks very munch!! From Spain😊
This will be fine as long as the majority of the listing is bright-the background can be dark. Thanks for subscribing!
This is great and I'd love to do this. However, Printify has a 100 mb limit and when I use AiArty to upscale, my file is 450 mb. I've watched this video twice and I don't understand how you can be scaling it at x8 and getting a file that is not too big to use on Printify. If I don't upscale, the image I've created on MidJourney has too little dpi. Any tips?
Are you in my Skool community? If so, send me a message, and I’ll share a link on how to reduce file size without losing quality after upscaling with AI Arty.
@@EtsyMentor I just signed up to your Skool
@@EtsyMentor I went ahead and signed up. I'm excited to get started.
@@EtsyMentor Hi again. I signed up for your skool site, but I am a pending member. Meanwhile I am going nuts trying to figure our how to compress these files. All the PNG compressers online don't handle files this large. I'd love that link when you get a chance!
That 'cartoon' image looks similar to the painting done with the new app on Canva.
It's an action that adds different textures to the original image.
Great video I tried different cartoon apps but haven’t found one I liked.
That’s perfect! With so many options out there, just go with what works best for you and your customers.
I think your math is not right, because you consider the shipping cost as profit, you are actually earning $12.73
The first product charges $9.22 for shipping, while Printify's shipping is only $6.99. The math checks out-just add everything up, then subtract. Also, don’t forget to factor in Etsy fees, which are charged individually for different aspects of the transaction. And just to clarify-this video was NOT about the products themselves. It’s wild how many people missed that. The whole point was to show how to identify gaps on Etsy and apply that strategy for yourself. At no point did I suggest diving into a specific niche or selling any of the products mentioned.
@@EtsyMentor Thank you
Somehow, in just 4 months or so, the dog pet art listing example you analyze here was able to rise up in a very crowded (but heavily searched) area - there are around 337k listings in etsy for the "dog pet art" keyword string. I know from some of your other videos that you often say "you have to stand out." What is it about this listing that you think accounts for them standing out and beating out tens of thousands of other dog pet art listings? And in just 4 months? Understanding that is the secret sauce, I am thinking. Probably obvious to you, but not to me!
It's personal-they're tapping into customers' emotions and making them visualize their own pet. That's why they showcase multiple animals in their images. Most sellers stick to one or two, but they went all in with 19 different pictures.
Stop spreading disinformation George That $70 portrait you mention you completely skipped Etsy fees 12.5% on 70 bucks adds up pretty quick, Also they do not make 22k as everbee is showing FULL price. Everbee completely ignores the discount. So more like 15k (You surely know it right?) The biggest disinformation or rather hopes you sell to people when you tell them they can do it right now. This listing was created in q4 and peaked in q4 where sales 3-5x than usual. If you do it now it would flop big time, I do not mean to attack you but stop selling dreams and hopes to normies. This listing has no chance of gaining traction in January same as it did in October 2023 I do know you are being successful and I know your stores and you are doing amazing job but do no fall into this yt bullshit to sell hopes like every other Etsy UA-camr you’re better so please more reality would be great
This video is designed to show people how to identify gaps on Etsy and apply that strategy for themselves. At no point did I suggest jumping into a specific niche or selling any of the products mentioned-I’m simply demonstrating the research process. What someone chooses to sell is entirely up to them. For anyone reading this: If you’re determined, you can succeed and make money online. But if you’re full of excuses, then honestly, you might as well stop watching now-because that mindset will always hold you back. There’s plenty of money to go around, but many people let negativity and doubt block them from seeing what’s possible. If you can’t even imagine success, how can you ever achieve it? I’m living proof that it is possible. So stop worrying about what others are doing, learn how to do the research, and go out and dominate!
Damn pretty sad you ignored or valid point about revenue not being right and demand not being there but listing is only 4 months! If you list today it could be you in 4 months yikes, It’s multiple factors why this listing is where it is today and listing it today ot won’t get you there in the next 4 months, How about you try this and show me Im wrong or you too busy to build your community to show real results?
You came here to argue instead of actually understanding the premise of the video. If you put the same energy into your Etsy shop that you do into these comments, I have no doubt you could accomplish great things. But success starts with the right mindset. Too many people want an easy route and expect big results with minimal effort. When they see someone making money quickly, they assume something must be wrong-simply because they haven’t been able to do it themselves. They make excuses as to why it’s not possible, instead of seeing the opportunities in front of them. The reality is, those successful shops and people put in the work and the time. They didn’t expect a handout, and they didn’t assume working an hour a day would bring them massive success. That’s the difference.
Cmon seriously? I did both these routes over a year ago and I couldn’t be seen. Back on page 50 even with adds.
That’s due to all the misinformation out there. Join my Skool community-I’ll be launching a free course very soon!
Thank you George. Love how you break things down🙏💛
I hope this helps! There are plenty of gaps in every niche and product category-you just have to know where to find them!

Thanks George for everything ❤
Thank you for watching and supporting my channel!
Can a pic taken with my iphone be upscaled with this Aiart tool and then place on the Printify wall art product? Thanks, George
Yes, it can. That photo of my grandmother was actually taken back in 2006 on a camera phone, which is why it’s so blurry.
these niches are highly competitive though, how do we compete in these niches? Even with ads it's hard
It’s pretty simple-you just need to stand out. The two companies I showed in the video made incredible progress in months, not years. So if they can do it, what’s stopping you?
@EtsyMentor i get it, though if my listing has no sales how will it rank high to compete with the other listings that have sold hundreds of times? Won't it just get lost in search results?
I’m not sure what your listing or store looks like. Are you in my Skool community? If so, I can take a look at it for you!
I have requested to join
I sent you a DM. It's your designs and niche that are hindering sales.
Naaa the editing and the content of the video is impressive, greetings from PERU
Thank you!
was looking for the mockup of that listing but I couldn't find on Etsy? I think most people bay your product based of the mockup you present the design.
That’s correct-people buy based on visuals. The more appealing your listing is, especially the first image, the higher the chance they’ll click on your item.

I plan to launch more content on this. I think a lot of people dislike AI because they don’t realize it’s a tool designed to help grow their business, not replace it.
Ohh you are getting very good at video production George
I cannot take credit for this one lol.
Could you make a video about how to list them? With all the sizes?
As in how to add the variations?
I just finished generating all of the five prompts. Love 💗 the results. I used Mid-Journey.
I still need to try. them!
