    The main drawback with Etsy is that they can decide to shut you down at any moment with no explanations and that's that. Your shop that you put 100s of hours and money on is ultimately not yours. If they were known for better and more fair service around this topic I would not hesitate.

      It’s good for establishing your new business because you get free traffic. Once it’s more established, you can branch off and start an independent store.

    Etsy is horrible now. Not like they used to be! Ever since Josh came in he is trying to turn it into ebay. Etsy used to be so great. Now they punish you for not offering free shipping. They will enroll you in off site adds whether you like it or not and lie to you when you make a sale. There is NO transparency!

    What is the procedure for Etsy and print on demand? With social media, a customer clicks a link to a POD site and the POD company handles 100%. Do Etsy buyers get forwarded to a POD site as well or is the Etsy shop owner responsible for the transaction?

    • @DLTemplate
      @DLTemplate 29 днів тому

      Typically you link your Etsy listing to your POD provider (Printify etc.) for fulfillment (plenty of tutorials on YT on how to do this). This is transparent to the buyer as it happens in the background. Keep in mind that for many products using a POD provider is not cost effective so sellers who do their own printing can sell at lower prices.

    I'm too afraid to start an Etsy store after hearing about the policy with new stores where they hold your funds for months, and if they shut you down you never get the money they're holding. I don't trust Etsy enough to gamble with it. Too much seems out of my hands.

      I tried pattern, and unless you are going to promote your own website it’s a waste of time. Also customers clicking on items there get taken to the etsy marketplace if you have items listed on both - i had for a long time, not 1 sale

      @@dylanjahraus thank you for promoting the question and allowing me to think it through.
      First, I like the idea of having your own domain for branding proposes.
      Second I would say that it gives my current and future customers a place to shop without being exposed to the competition through ‘similar items section.’ If they get curious they can veer off.
      I’m dissatisfied by the lack of design and site feature option they currently offer. Very limited.
