What EVERY Etsy Seller Needs To Know That No One Talks About

Making money online, specifically on Etsy may seem easy or at least that’s how it’s often presented.  Just like how it may be presented as easy to own a mansion, Ferrari, or spend every day on the beach collecting passive income…

I’ve been around the Etsy game for a long time.  I've been selling since 2014 to be exact.  I’ve been around the commerce game even longer, since 2000… So I’ve learned a few things along the way.. or at least I’d like to think so.

During that time I’ve failed a bunch, made tons of mistakes, and have also seen many other sellers do the same. 

In today’s age, I think starting a business or Etsy shop is a little different than years ago.  Mainly because we live in the age of social media or social perceptions rather. 

This is why I want to do this episode and talk about the dark side of selling on etsy.  I don’t want to be all doom and gloom, but I do want to set the record straight.  I want to ground you so to speak.

So what do I mean by the dark side of etsy?  Mainly, I mean the negatives that aren’t talked about enough that most sellers have to overcome before they EVER find success on the platform.  But knowing these and being prepared for them is a great step in the right direction.  Don't miss this episode!
