    I have an Etsy shop, but I’m trying to figure out what else I can sell because my items are only around three dollars, supplies. So it takes a lot of orders to make any money.

      You could make bundles or start selling digital designs of your art as well (this way you won't have to ship it out and it is passive income) - later on you can expand your business and sell other merchandise using your art (mugs, clothing, tote bags, etc). This is what a lot other small businesses do when they first start off selling very low priced items like stickers.

    Not sure if you have any idea, but I recently registered for GST/HST for my business as well! We're operating in Ontario, so that would be enough, but we also ship to different provinces, and I am not sure whether we need provincial tax numbers as well... so annoying!

    • @percysangels
      @percysangels День назад

      In Canada, if you’re registered for GST/HST, you’re generally required to collect these taxes on sales to customers across the country. However, some provinces have additional provincial sales taxes (PST or QST). The requirement to register and collect these additional taxes depends on the province and your level of sales there. For example: Quebec: You may need to register for and collect QST if your sales to Quebec residents exceed a certain threshold. British Columbia, Manitoba, and Saskatchewan: You may need to register for PST if you have a significant presence or sales in these provinces. Hope this helps! 😊

      @@percysangels thanks, definitely helps! I wish one day we'll have an "all-in-one" option to register for GST/HST, PST, QST, for ecommerce purposes! To be honest, I'm surprised it doesn't exist yet. It seems like a nightmare for medium sized businesses to keep up with all the provincial taxes. (small businesses I would say sell under 30k, and large companies have people to deal with just this!)...

    • @percysangels

      Thank you for your support🥰 we used to outsource digitization since it’s fairly hard to pick up. I am lucky, since my partner learned how to use Wilcom - now we do it in house!! He learned it from watching RUclips videos - there are plenty. If you’re looking to outsource, I’d recommend looking on fiverr, it is the cheapest way we did it.

    OMG!! Thank you for this video!! So, I've ventured into a new Etsy journey. My previous shop was Print-on-Demand, but now I'm diving into shipping orders myself. Exciting stuff! However, my first order hit me with a shipping surprise. How do you work that magic while keeping prices in check? Do you handle shipping labels through Etsy? I tried it, and it seems Expedited is the only option. Weird, right? I was hoping for regular mail. Any tips to ease my shipping stress? My focus is all over the place! Kindest regards

    • @percysangels
      @percysangels 5 дней назад

      Congratulations on starting your journey!! 😊 I always charge shipping no matter what. Although it is expensive for the customers, it is the only way I can ship products out. I have my own website and an Etsy account but I never use Etsy to ship since I find it more expensive than my courier. Depending on where you’re located, there are usually budget couriers (for us in Canada there’s couriers like chit chats) that offer lower rates for small businesses. When starting out, I definitely recommend looking for budget couriers near your area. If not, compare prices amongst different couriers. And also experience shipping locally/ within your country , and then expanding your geographic area there. Hope this helps!!

I'm starting my own fashion/jewellery brand soon. Mainly started it because I struggle alot with my mental health and knew that working from home was the most beneficial thing for me. I worked at McDonalds and other places and they gave me panic attacks daily/depression etc. So much happier now that I'm following what brings me the most joy. Wishing you all the continued success!

    Thank you for sharing your expertise & you're spot on. Question, if you don't mind. When starting out on a slime budget with a single needle machine. How many shirts or crew necks would you offer & suggest? As in sizes/colors? Thank you.

    • @percysangels
      @percysangels Месяц назад

      Great question!! I would say start with one or two colours and test the waters first. I only started with crewnecks in sizes medium through xl in the beginning (medium and L are very popular sizes). The classic black, beige and white are always great choices to start with since it goes well with everything. After that, you can decide on expanding into other colours 😊
