- Running an Etsy shop can be tricky are you making these Top 10 Etsy Mistakes? Here are my tips for Etsy Beginners
1. Complete your entire Etsy shop, including shop Policies.
2. Make sure you have clickable and cohesive looking shop and product images.
3.Use all or most of the Etsy shop photos with 7 different styles of photos.
4.Do your keyword research. Keywords are the only way you can get found.
5.Use keywords in your shop title, first paragraph of your shop description, product title, first paragraph of product description, and product tags.
6.Pick keywords with some competition but not a lot so that you can get seen, not lost in all of the noise.
7.Put the most important keyword first in your title.
8.Tap into buyers emotions in your descriptions and product descriptions should be approximately 300 words. Think how can I improve the life of my customer with this product.
9.Once a day add products to your Etsy shop increasing daily to a minimum of 100-200 products in your shop.
10.Make products where you can sell multiple quantities of the same thing. Etsy algorithm likes to see sales and then renewals.

What are your Etsy selling questions?
Should a seller use different key words? Example: Double Mirror Compact, Pocket Mirror,Fox Mirror Compact?
Southern Charm Wreaths when it comes to key words, is every so got word you put used or do I need to repeat the word if used in a phrase? Like if I say "door wreath" and "spring wreath". Would I need them both or could I just say "spring door wreath"?
Every single word you put*
Thx in advance!
Southern Charm Wreaths Hello , I am seller etsy account, I shipped my order and add tracking number, but it’s wrong tracking number how to re- Update?
Please help me
Thanks so much!
To the busy ones:
1. Completely fill out your ETSY shop
2. Ensure good pictures (light, quality) of your products
3. Use as many ETSY picture slots as possible
4. Do keyword research (narrow it down)
5. Add keywords to title, 1st paragraph and tags
6. Use low-frequent keywords (less competition)
7. Most important keywords should go first
8. Use at least 300 words in the description (use emotions)
9. Post ~1 product every day (dynamic shop) and increase options (~50 items)
10. Use multiple items (e.g. make multiple bracelets)

Alex W this is amazing
Hi Julie- I just wanted to say thank you for this video. I opened up my Etsy Shop in 2016 and made 3 sales the entire year. Three. My biggest mistake was not using the description box to its maximum potential. I decided to start selling in March, and started implementing your suggestions. Since March, I have made 85 sales. Thank you so very much!
That’s awesome. This made my day! Thanks for letting me know! Now to make 85 sales per month!! If you need help with social media or email marketing your Etsy shop I would love to have you in our business group! southerncharmwreaths.com/success-circle

Brand new pen turner on etsy. I haven't opened my shop yet, but I feel much more comfortable with getting started now. Thank you so much!
You made an awesome point about not wanting to shop in a store with only 5 pairs of shoes! Also didn't realize that each time I add a product to my shop it shows up in my faves' feeds.
Girrrrl! You did an amazing job explaining this subject. Thank you!
First time watcher, I WILL be back, thank you!
I have been thinking of starting a shop, and you answered some of my questions.
THANK YOU so much for all of your advice. I'm saving these, taking notes, and making plans.

I have watched a few etsy shop videos and this one has been by far the mosnt helpful! can't wait to get to work on giving my shop an overhaul
Yes,I use the same keywords other bigger sellers are using but the problem with that sometimes they will still choose the other seller because they still have a bigger ranking and have bigger feedback on the same item.So sometimes it works,sometimes it does not.
Queen Kristal, I am curious as to how you go about knowing that you are using the SAME keywords that successful Etsy sellers are using?
That is the struggle when you are new to the game. It is logical that people are going to go with the better ranking seller because of perceived bigger experience and better feedback but you keep going at it and you will too be a big seller someday too.
Scroll down until you see the tags that they are using. Ps you won’t see them if you’re using mobile app
Thank you so much! I’ve been a seller for almost 2 months and didn’t sell anything, this helps SO FLIPPING MUCH YOU ARE AMAZING I will try every single thing you say
Thank you so much for breaking it all down. You make it so easy to follow.
Thank you so much. This was so helpful!

Im planning to open an atsy shop very soon and thank you so much! I find this is very, very helpful!
28:00 well ther's my problem I guess. One perosn backed out after I quoted them the market average for custom artwork that is very labour intensive. I then thought I was being arrogant and immediately slashed my prices by half. Then another client said (after they paid me) shouldn't I be charging more? I was perplexed. It's because I have never been above the poverty line myself and always look for the cheapest thing. online. I guess normal people don't think that way especially when trating themselve sor gifting someone a luxury item such as bespoke artwork. I have always denied myself these things because I couldn't afford them, and I never will unless I can price high enough to earn at least the minimum wage.
Art is the one product people feel should be very inexpensive to them.. odd.
I had a guy look at my ad with three dolls in it.. him thinking they were all available for one price.. when the ad clearly stated these were examples and each doll was the price advertised. He cancels his order and accused ME of tricking him..
@@rachell.661 I hear you. With some customers you never win.They rather die than accept that they were wrong.
Not everyone is your target market. Those that are not can keep moving.
GRAMMER IS EVERYTHING! SPELL CORRECTLY! KNOW YOUR KEYBOARD LOL!!
No, thank you for this information. It has opened my eyes to things I didn't even know would be deal breakers.
Thank you Sooo much for that really helpful info. I'm a beginner and my Etsy shop looks off LoL. Did not how to set up. I have to erase everything to start again. Because of your wonderful help I can now set up my shop wayyy better. Thank you 🌠
I haven't started my shop yet, am really glad I found you before I I do.

Your video was very informative. When you actually said my name (Lynda) saying please listen, it really made me perk up. May sound silly but I have been searching for good info I could apply as a very new shop owner. Thank you.
These are great pieces of advice, I'm going to implement them and see how it goes!
Thanks for your advice. I really enjoyed your detailed tutorial. I just subscribed. You are a generous and humorous teacher.
