      Hi Kristen, thanks for the comment! She's a POD seller that sells shirts and apparel. The example in the video was NOT her shop, I was using that SVG shop as an example of "color theme" and "shop feel" to help provide real life examples :) Thanks again!

    The one thing that hit me the hardest watching this video is that I've spent a ton of time trying to make all my mockups unique.... but it seems to be that finding some consistency in imagery and coloring should be what I need to change to instead. Thanks for this video!

    • @helloeverbee

      Thanks for that comment! I think the main thing with mockups is trying to get the shopper comfortable and confident enough to make the purchase.. Nothing more. If it achieves that goal, everyone wins! What software are you using to create mockups? Canva?

    Very useful tips indeed. Main takeway from the video for me is reserch, research, research, instead of guessing what tags/keywords I should target for each listing. The 80/20 rule applies to my website onlie shop over 5 years period. Two best-seller products are generating 70-85% of the total revenue. Let's see how it goes on Etsy!

It's not everyday that you get to sit down with a high producing Etsy shop and dive into what steps they use to create that productivity. The 80/20 rule really hit home to me and increased the reality in my mind of the importance of targeting trending products. Thanks for all the great videos. So informative.

    • @helloeverbee
      @helloeverbee  2 роки тому

      Thank you SO much, Angella! I totally agree on the 80/20 rule. After looking at thousands of shops listings and analytics. It's so true. The majority of shop listings don't actually sell that great! It's around 20% of their listings bring in the majority. Most sellers get upset that certain listings in their shop don't sell.. but really, it's just part of the game!
      Is this also true for your shop? Do only a certain amount of your listings bring in the majority of your sales?

I'm a native English speaker but I still could not understand everything you were saying without replaying the video. Please just slow down a bit.

    This is a great video and I appreciate it. But calling out the shop you used to show not having a theme, does have a theme and consistency branding. I would argue it looks just as professional as the other shop and that it’s just marketing to a different crowd.

    Thanks for this video, I love the ideas you are sharing. Just wanted to give you some feedback that the data the tool have given me is not very accurate. I’ve looked at a few shops with zero sales, actually, but the tool says there are a lot of sales per month. If the data isn’t somewhat realistic, our decisions won’t be very smart, either. Any thoughts on this? Thanks!

    • @helloeverbee
      @helloeverbee  2 роки тому +3

      Hi Calliope! Thank you for the comment and for using EverBee! I agree, good data is important for making good decisions! In regards to what you mentioned, sometimes this happens when a listing is getting a lot of traffic (views) .. our algorithm thinks it should be making sales.. but maybe the listing isn't converting like its counterparts - like it should be -- could be poor images, or brand new shop, brand new listing etc..) I'd recommend using the "Listing Age" data coupled with the estimated sales data. In the meantime, we're continue to improve the algorithm every day and the data will continuing to get better and better. Thanks again! :)

      It depends on many factors of course, if the product hasn't done well for a long period of time, and you feel like it's just not what the market wants - I'd shut it off. But if you feel like it still has a chance, duplicate it let it run for some time again and see how it performs.

    • @helloeverbee
      @helloeverbee  2 роки тому +1

      It can be difficult but VERY possible! if you’re listing something that is in demand + optimizing the title, tags and description with relevant search terms… etsy will give your listing a chance by default (rotates you the 1st page of a main keyword).. then if your listing converts well, etsy will show YOUR listing more often.. the more listings you create, the more opportunities you have to be rotated up in search.
