You inspire me so much! I am 15 and am headed to my county clerks office to officially receive my DBA and heading to my local credit union to open my first business account! I will be selling 18k gold filled earrings and you have inspired me so so much! thank you!!
Your packaging is super cute!! Maybe for future with your tissue paper, as I appreciate custom tissue paper can be expensive, maybe try cutting the sheet in half and then you wouldn't need to do as much folding and wasting of tissue paper? Just an idea!! Good luck in 2022!!
Glad your back!!! Can you please show yourself packaging them next time, love long packaging videos hehe xoxoxo Wow the snow outside!! Being from New Zealand, I had no idea it snows in Wisconsin and reaches -18 Celsius wow, but it looks so beautiful! Whats it like living there do you enjoy it? xoxo
the snow can definitely be pretty, but the long & cold winters can be tough physically and mentally! i find that it makes me less motivated, but i wouldn't want to live anywhere else. :)
Also I'm not trying to be rude but I kinda like the old packaging better But this way is still really cute plus it's helping the environment so that's a bonus
i respect your opinion. however, in order to be a more sustainable business, i need to use more eco-friendly materials to package, which means less plastic. this is a way to protect the environment, but still have somewhat cute packaging. i still haven't used up all of my old packaging so it may still be in future videos, but i am doing my best to focus on being more environmentally conscious and less focused on the "visual appeal" of my packaging!
@@KelseyNeuman22 I'm reading my comment that I wrote again and I realized the way I worded it wasn't the greatest I wasn't trying to be rude in any way your packaging is really cute still and I think your doing a great job I have a small business and it's not nearly as good as yours and it's really hard so sorry if I offended you I didn't mean that in any way
@@caffrey.f i wasn't offended. i see you edited your original comment so i don't remember what you said before but i was just explaining my reasoning for changing it up! i'm not upset or anything, just wanted you to know why!
@@taniam.4554 id say a chromebook is very affordable, but it lacks certain printing features and doesn't connect to apple devices. so i would research some and make sure it has everything you're looking for in a computer
Yay! Love seeing a new video from you! Do you ever struggle with feeling overwhelmed by trying to keep up with other Etsy/online shops? I sometimes get frustrated when i see other shops with so many products in their shop and I’m still trying to get things started with only a few items…not to mention I’m still trying to get a site done 😬😅 did you ever feel this way when you first started? It’s hard not to compare 😕
oh absolutely! all the time, even now! there's always gonna be someone/some shop that you envy, but i guarantee that they're doing the same thing about someone else!! i know it can be hard to not compare, but the best thing you can do is focus on yourself and your growth. good things take time, and i wish you the best with your shop! keep going girl!🤍
Hi Kelsey! You inspired me so much, how old are you? They say that if you are a minor you can't create an Etsy account I'm 17 year's, you must be 18 year's old to create your Etsy store is that true?
@@KelseyNeuman22 thanks for replying, but how about the bank details? Did you also used their bank account? Since they say your bank account must be associated to your shop name
Hi Kelsey. it’s been so long! I hope you have been okay. I’m actually a small business owner myself but everything is going bad. Do you have any tips? Thankyou
Hi! I know I am not Kelsey but I am starting my business as well! I just got my DBA today and opening my first business checking account as a 15 year old. First of all I HIGHLY recommend at least getting a DBA (Doing Business As) and opening a business checking or just getting a basic checking account in general (age does not matter). This will really help in the long run as you become an actual small business rather than someone selling things. I would really look into become a sole proprietorship as it WAY cheaper than start an LLC. Then I would write a business plan, I went to my local used book store and grabbed a couple cheap books about writing a business plan. This is really attractive to investors and it is really easy to get a ton of money for your business if you’re looking to do that. Next I would write everything out and organize my thoughts, and plan plan plan! I also recommend being as professional as possible; having descriptions of your product, good quality pictures, good listing/title names, and being extremely professional!! As small business owners we are competing with HUGE corporations so we have to be as professional as we possibly can.
@@noname-zk1gc Thankyou so much! Your tips will definitely come in handy, something else is Etsy a good site to sell on or should I make my own website?Thankyou
@@nlplaysrespectanimals3667 that's a good question. i can make a video about my opinion and experience using etsy, but there are a lot of things you need to consider. while etsy is a great way for people all around the world to discover your shop, etsy also has a LOT of rules and fees, which can negatively impact your business and potentially get your shop shut down. having your own website completely puts you in charge of your business and you don't have to worry about having someone higher up than you who could shut down your shop out of nowhere. long story short, there are lots of things to consider based on the platform you choose to sell on, so i recommend doing research before choosing one.
@@KelseyNeuman22 Thankyou so much! I would love if you could do a video on that, and also for shipping labels would it be a better idea to write them or purchase them and print them? Thankyou

@@Ranchmade I’m still trying to find a good manufacturer it’s been so hard, everyone is trying to cheat you.
I would love to see a video on how she actually makes her items especially her jewelry pieces. They are so pretty!
I’m glad you’re back☺️❣️
I know your packaging hasn’t changed but it’s always satisfying to see packing🎧
The bags was better then Tissue paper
plastic isn't better than the environment tho! :)
Nice which Plate do you use for selling

Do you mind if I ask what laptop you use? I'm looking for a new one but I'm trying not to spend too much.
it's a macbook pro, so it's definitely not the cheapest laptop out there ;)
@@KelseyNeuman22 lol oh boy! Thank you for your response 😊 is there one you can recomend that's budget friendly!?😅
