I cannot stress this enough, your videos are not only inspiring and motivating, but also filled with amazing, useful information that is actually valuable. I cannot believe you are doing this for us. Thank you.:)
Finally got my first sale after 4 days of doing this . Definitely in it for the long run . You gotta have that rich mindset but also dedication of never giving up when it gets a lil hard many give up yes but the ones who push through will always prevail!! I've always had that entrepreneur mindset of wanting the best & knowing I deserve the best !! Hopefully I find that product/design that just destroys the competition. Law of attraction believe it into existence!! Great vid btw . Gives me more confidence!
As slways concise, practical information without a lot of unnecessary fluff you don't need. They are also just the right length to absord without getting overwhelmed and your speech pace is perfect!
Thank you for wealth of knowledge, Cassiy!! Your videos have truly helped take my shop up a level and I’m so thankful for your transparency.💕 I’ve been doing Etsy POD since summer of ‘21, but I’m a SAHM of three and the hours I’ve been able to put into it are limited. I’ve generated over $50K in revenue since starting 2 years ago, but with over $36K of that being designs that I removed in May because I didn’t realize I was infringing on intellectual property 🙈. However, ever since coming across your channel, life hacker couple, Heather’s, Shawna’s etc., I’ve learned so much more and my shop’s success is growing at a faster rate. 🙌🏼 I’m thankful for my success and am hoping to have a greater success story SOON! 😊 Thank you so much!!
This is a wonderful video, thank you. I got my first sale within a few days of setting up a few weeks ago (it was a framed print) but it was damaged on delivery. I responded quickly and arranged a replacement, so don't forget customer service is also key. Regardless I'm taking on board step #1 as I have too many categories and haven't made a sale since.
You are the best! I’ve been doing okay with my Etsy store. I’ve made about $2k this year so far but with these tips I know I can get so much more. Thank you!
@@comfortakinwale9245 honestly, I've got 6 kids, a full time job and several side gigs so I am still learning how to juggle everything. I really need to hire a VA or somebody
I am a retired Commercial Artist and I just know I"m going to do well... my niche is designs, logos, and slogans!!! I just set up my etsy account!!!! My etsy store will have all of my own original designs, artwork and slogans! Here we go!~
this video is filled with amazing information that every new etsy shop owner needs to hear, as well as those who've been struggling or confused why they are having difficulties getting sales. thank you once again for sharing your info with us, it helps to know what you would do if you could retrace your steps and streamline your experience. i took notes the entire time. :)
THIS ONE CASSIY was amazing IN DEPTH AND CLEAR. Super helpful and I tend to be critical as I'm a YOutuber (in different niche) too. This was actionable.
Thank you for another incredibly helpful video! If you have time for it, a video on how to fulfill your first order with Printify and understanding the differences between shipping within the US vs. overseas would be so helpful! I just got my first sale last week and was so nervous about doing something wrong😬
I'd recommend watching this video about what settings I have set up for my Printify account ruclips.net/video/A0pwxC7AG3Q/видео.html If you set these settings up, then everything will happen automatically for you and you shouldn't need to do anything additional after orders come in to Printify! They will print the item, send it to the customer and update the tracking number on Etsy!
@@CassiyJohnson I'm French native but shuttle between Africa and Europe. I don't live in the US. Though oftentimes in Africa, will these settings work for me when I set up my Etsy shop while in Africa please?...
Going to make some adjustments and hope something connects! I've added 150 items in the past few weeks but still no sales coming in. Makes it easy to get discouraged but your videos help, thanks cassiy!
Maybe try putting some posts on Facebook or something promoting your store and have your friends and family make a post too so more people know about it and how to find it..if you already made a store and have that many listings then you already did the hard part I would think so you just gotta figure out how to get as many people to find it now as possible 😀 I hope this is good advice and it helps.. either way I wish you the best of luck!!
Thanks for this video! I just needed to hear it today! My shop is only 5 weeks old and I am constantly posting I have over 150 items on it now and people are liking my shop and favoriting some items but they just aren't buying any! It can be frustrating sometimes but I will keep working and posting and be patient and keep studying so that I can get this off the ground. Thank you for always giving us insight , positivity and encouragement on your channel!
Hello there! Thank you for this video. I agree with @purplefuse. I get a lot of likes and favorites but no $$. Will hang in there. Thanks for the encouragement!
at start work on a single niche and test it, move to another niche if its not working. scale up the niche that is working and then repeat for other niche...
No I think you should start with just one category of product like shirts, then try lots of different niches until you find some stuff that works. Then make more of that niche and also keep finding new niches.
@12:36 just got me so psych to stop overthinking and finally pull the trigger. Listing to many of your videos this week and appreciate the time you've put into making this.
You are first I've seen honest enough to talk about your experiences with selling online - failures and success - which is laudable. Well dine and thanks a lot!! 😊 please continue the good work coz I'd follow you..
Cassiy i would just like to thank you sooo much for being you! Thank you for helping me get started on Etsy, i love listening to all your great advice! You're so Awesome and we are all so Blessed to have you as our mentor! Have the Best Day ! Ana xoxo
Thank you so much for sharing such amazing techniques in this video! I'm confident that it will help you gain new subscribers. As a designer, I recently started selling my designs on Etsy's print on demand service, but I was struggling to figure out what designs to focus on and how to stay motivated while also working a full-time job. Your video has provided me with some valuable insights and inspiration!
Hi I just stumbled across this video trying to find information to improve my shop and I want to say thank you. You delivered the information clearly and concisely without a slant or pitch and speaking from experience rather then what you got from doing a five minute google search.

I've seen so many videos about selling on Etsy and yours is one of my favorites! You sound so honest, especially with the #6. Thank you so much for sharing your experience :)
This is very useful information. I see where you’re learning curve was longer than had you has retail business, and an artistic background. If I do decided to enter this arena to start my own company I have had classes in fashion and display background in retail, and have looked at what felt were gaps in product lines offering. Fashion has autumn and winter, and spring summer calendars, and once one line is completed the following year in already in process. The the creativity aspect comes into play, as to where the industry is headed or you want push it towards. But you’ve even broken it down more to enhancing your product line in season. I also have designed my own art work for a niche’ T-shirt line. I feel I have a scene that I can offer products for both men and women, since I came up with costume designs for my dance choreography. I have no fear in selecting what women like, or niche’ areas I may not an expert in, but know is trending. But, where you’re strong is the business end. Staying on top of the numbers, which is my weakness, but is essential to maintaining over over head and how your business is trending from quarter to quarter and seasonally. I might sound cocky, but I’m really not, since I haven’t pursued it, and that’s why this video has been very valuable. The one area I’m wondering about is how much time is spent in maintaining your business. A couple of life times ago a girl I know had started her own dance attire clothing line. And none of what you have available to support your product wasn’t in existence, and had to do all aspects. Shop for fabric, cut her own design patterns and label. Oh, and cut and sew it all herself, then go out and sell it at various venues. No internet ads also lacking since it didn’t exist. I went along to choose her fabric and haul it back to her in house shop. So I became knowledgeable in the quality and types of fabrics there are and why the cost they way they do. Time you don’t get paid for in producing your line back then. She sought other gigs to supplement income by making costumes for stage productions. She put in at times 18 hours a day. I would like to know if you’ve factored your time where you’re spending time producing it. Granted it’s not the same last century to this one, but there are some things that carry over. Those are the unknowns I wish to know.
I’m taking some courses on digital products and getting a little bit overwhelmed . Thank you so much for this video , even your voice gave the peace and to think that it will be ok ❤.
Thank you! I just started an etsy shop. I have had a lot of sales through vendor events, but so far no sales through etsy. My theme is tshirts with pet designs.
I really appreciate the information you have given us. And, you are right one tend to spread yourself thin and do too many things…I am new at this and I will definitely apply these strategies to my new store. I thank you from the bottom of my heart ♥️ God bless you.
U r still the best Cassiy...thanks again and again. Still trying to keep head above water...still only 5 sales after 5mths. But will never ever give up. Ur my inspiration. Please keep it up...love, Christa ForeverYoungDesignSA.
I just started about a week ago. I find a lot of inspiration from you're videos. I seem to be struggling with even getting views. I have 25 listing and try to use all the right tags and title words, good mockups but so far nothing. Not sure what I'm doing wrong. Going to keep watching your videos and hopefully get better. Thank you for sharing all the helpful tips & tricks
Thank you so very much I was having a problem with getting the text off downloaded image could not find answer until you showed how to fix it.i watch all your videos so helpful packed full of information, just great. Have a wonderful day, you just made mine.
My frustration really lies with the shops that are selling shirts with copywritten images. Barbie...Bluey...Disney. Those are the newer shops making bank.
Yep but go back to Strategy #6, DON'T WORRY ABOUT THE LITTLE THINGS lol that includes what other people are doing wrong. You don't want that money. You should be in this for the long haul, you can build a sustainable, scalable business that you will have for years to come! They will build a shop, make a bunch of money and then lose their shop.
@@christinemaleport1422 nah i doubt it ,the amount of people on there aswell selling the artwork of dead artists is insane and annoying, like picasso, keith haring, even vintage photographs of celebrities being sold as prints ,surely none of this is with permission 😂
You’re awesome and clear! Love all your help! Hope to start soon.. been spending a lot of money trying to learn and feel like a lot of time has been wasted, I should’ve started years ago
Congrats on getting started. I know the beginning is hard and takes a long time. Just remember that everyone is on their own journey and to try not to compare too much! Just take it slow and think of the beginning as a learning and testing phase. Find smaller niches that have bestsellers in them and then create your own unique designs to add value for those niches and you’ll do great!
@@CassiyJohnson thank you so much for the words of wisdom! Question! I’ve started downloading fonts using your promo but it won’t let me upload them to Canva. How do I change the format to be able to upload it?
Great information. I’ve been researching what niche works best with me and my passions. I Am definitely an overthinking lol I learned that keeping a schedule does help for me at least 😊
Great video! Thanks you for sharing all of your knowledge and experience. I found this video immensely helpful and I've already started implementing the tips in my store already. Keep up the good work!
Hello from Montreal,Qc! I just started my online business. I've been researching like mad... day and night... you're the best I've found late tonight. Thank you... I'm on squarespace... but I'm going to build bridges to Etsy after I set up Pinterest. My background is in design (15yrs.. about..) I'm an artist, I paint what's on trend and, what I like as well 😅 May your business keep blooming 🌺🍉🍒🍷 cheers
@@kaleyjanenigh thanks but they permanently banned me 😢 I don't know what happened and they said they can't tell me. I'm so confused. I guess I'll never sell on Etsy 😭
Hi @CasslyJohnson. I LOVE your channel. I am very inspired to begin and hope that you get your larger class going. I have an exciting idea which includes needing to send a card (with important information) w the item (mug). How do I do that with POD? Would I have to send separately?
I really, really needed this kind of guidance. I was stuck in analysis paralysis and haven’t started yet because I’ve been nervous. I just need to go for it.
I haven't had a lot of success on Etsy, but after watching your videos, I'll try again. I read that the newer the store, the better the placement, because Etsy wants new sellers to hang around. What about if your store is older? Does Etsy give older stores less visible placement?
Very, very Good! Although I had some gut feeling regarding some of your suggestions, you very clearly nailed down and clearly specified all of what I had to do, and how…Thank You Very Much!
Hi Cassiy, I just found your video and loved it. Thank you so much for being so gracious and selfless and offering to help others. I currently am embarking on my tshirt business. I received my EIN no. last week, purchased domain name, now need to create my LLC and get a registered agent. (I have been a legal secy for 30 yrs so thank god I worked for an atty who formed LLCs for clients etc..) I totally hear you on focusing on the 1 thing at first as I have so many ideas creatively and for years just did not know how to localize my 1 idea and move forward. I finally did it...funny how it came to me whilst laying in bed at 3am all of a sudden my mind was flooded with over 10 funny quotes for tshirts...lol. Anyway just want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing and helping me. Have a great day! (curious.. did you take any of the above legal steps for your business? Truly want to know if I can just start w/out pursuing these for now)
Could you do a video or do you have a video that compares what's best between opening your own store on Shopify for example or whatever platform versus lsting on a platform such as Etsy? What do you think is the best option budget wise for someone with limited resources? And is it possible to do both? Like use Etsy to drive sales in your own private store or vice versa?
Thank you for the info. I started an Etsy shop back in 2007 but then stopped when I had my son. I was struggling then but I want to get back. I was making jewelry and things like ID holders and key chains. I want to work smarter. I don’t want to do jewelry again I love it don’t get me wrong I just don’t have that kind of time. So I want to try print on demand items. Your information has given me good food for thought.

You should be in this for the long haul, you can build a sustainable, scalable business that you will have for years to come! They will build a shop, make a bunch of money and then lose their shop.
It took me about a year 1/2 start making good money. You have to be in this for the long haul . Most people can't last .
Yeah trust me people literally selling photographs of Tupac which is surely copyrighted 😂 so annoying
They may have purchased a license from the brands.
@@christinemaleport1422 nah i doubt it ,the amount of people on there aswell selling the artwork of dead artists is insane and annoying, like picasso, keith haring, even vintage photographs of celebrities being sold as prints ,surely none of this is with permission 😂
Thank you so much for these advices. These are actually so helpful ❤ and you makes me feel like I can do this
Love these tips, starting is so hard!
Thanks for watching! I hope these tips are so helpful for you on your Etsy journey!! ❤️
Thank you so much! This video was really helpful! And the volume is great!!
Glad to hear the volume is better
You’re awesome and clear! Love all your help! Hope to start soon.. been spending a lot of money trying to learn and feel like a lot of time has been wasted, I should’ve started years ago
Congrats on getting started. I know the beginning is hard and takes a long time. Just remember that everyone is on their own journey and to try not to compare too much! Just take it slow and think of the beginning as a learning and testing phase. Find smaller niches that have bestsellers in them and then create your own unique designs to add value for those niches and you’ll do great!
@@CassiyJohnson thank you so much for the words of wisdom! Question! I’ve started downloading fonts using your promo but it won’t let me upload them to Canva. How do I change the format to be able to upload it?
I look forward to these every week!
Thanks for being such a loyal viewer! :)
Thanks Cassiy. Using the same design across products for bestsellers is great advice.

Hello from Montreal,Qc!
I just started my online business.
I've been researching like mad... day and night... you're the best I've found late tonight. Thank you... I'm on squarespace... but I'm going to build bridges to Etsy after I set up Pinterest.
My background is in design (15yrs.. about..) I'm an artist, I paint what's on trend and, what I like as well 😅
May your business keep blooming 🌺🍉🍒🍷 cheers
Good luck, Charlene! I wish you all the best!
@@kaleyjanenigh thanks but they permanently banned me 😢 I don't know what happened and they said they can't tell me. I'm so confused. I guess I'll never sell on Etsy 😭
Very insightful!! Thank you for sharing your best practices.
Girl!!!! These tips are priceless!!! So generous. Thanks for sharing.
You're so welcome! I hope these tips bless your store!
Hi @CasslyJohnson. I LOVE your channel. I am very inspired to begin and hope that you get your larger class going. I have an exciting idea which includes needing to send a card (with important information) w the item (mug). How do I do that with POD? Would I have to send separately?
Great info..Thanks for sharing... subbed . Cheers from New Jersey!
Thanks for subbing! I hope this video was so helpful for you!!
Great info! I like fast talkers though…I changed the playback speed to 1.5 and this video was perfect!
So glad you enjoyed this video! Thanks for watching!!
Love your videos so much. Your caring really shows and I appreciate all the advice.
I'm so glad! I hope this was really helpful for you!!
I really, really needed this kind of guidance. I was stuck in analysis paralysis and haven’t started yet because I’ve been nervous. I just need to go for it.
Go for it, Katie!! Wishing you all the best!!
This was extremely helpful and thorough. Thank you so much for this breakdown. Definitely inspired to try etsy again.
So glad this was helpful for you!! I hope you give Etsy another try!!
I haven't had a lot of success on Etsy, but after watching your videos, I'll try again. I read that the newer the store, the better the placement, because Etsy wants new sellers to hang around. What about if your store is older? Does Etsy give older stores less visible placement?
TYVM for your input ❤ much appreciated
You’re so welcome!! Thanks for watching! ❤️
You are so helpful. Lots of great advice. And I love your personality!!
Thank you so much! I'm glad this was helpful for you!!

This was incredibly helpful thank u so much
Hi Cassiy, I just found your video and loved it. Thank you so much for being so gracious and selfless and offering to help others. I currently am embarking on my tshirt business. I received my EIN no. last week, purchased domain name, now need to create my LLC and get a registered agent. (I have been a legal secy for 30 yrs so thank god I worked for an atty who formed LLCs for clients etc..) I totally hear you on focusing on the 1 thing at first as I have so many ideas creatively and for years just did not know how to localize my 1 idea and move forward. I finally did it...funny how it came to me whilst laying in bed at 3am all of a sudden my mind was flooded with over 10 funny quotes for tshirts...lol. Anyway just want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing and helping me. Have a great day! (curious.. did you take any of the above legal steps for your business? Truly want to know if I can just start w/out pursuing these for now)
I am curious to know if I need to have all of this done before I start, as well!
THIS is an excellent video! Thank you Cassiy
Great video! Very helpful! I subscribed. Keep up the good work! Thank you! God bless!
LOVE this video! Thank you again Cassiy!
Who are you? You are amazing, eloquent, thorough, and I have been binging your videos. Thank you for your time and information. So valuable.
So glad you’ve found my content to be valuable!! Thanks so much for watching!! ❤️
Could you do a video or do you have a video that compares what's best between opening your own store on Shopify for example or whatever platform versus lsting on a platform such as Etsy? What do you think is the best option budget wise for someone with limited resources? And is it possible to do both? Like use Etsy to drive sales in your own private store or vice versa?
Hello Cassiy,
Strategy #2 involves selecting stores and looking at their sales volume. Do stores display their sales volume. If so where? Thanks.
Incredibly valuable video/content. I really appreciate Y O U.
Thank you, Sasha!! I'm SO glad my content has been valuable for you!
TY for your knowledge much appreciated. 🎯🎯
Thank you for the info. I started an Etsy shop back in 2007 but then stopped when I had my son. I was struggling then but I want to get back. I was making jewelry and things like ID holders and key chains. I want to work smarter. I don’t want to do jewelry again I love it don’t get me wrong I just don’t have that kind of time. So I want to try print on demand items. Your information has given me good food for thought.
Thank you for sharing your experience.
Cassiy, appreciate the no-nonsense advice in your channel ❤
My pleasure! Thanks so much for watching!!
Awesome tips, right on. This is where I am at. Thank you.
I hope these tips are so helpful for your business!! Thanks for watching!
Thanks sooo much Cassiy!
