100% true! Earlier this week I had no social media and 3 views with 2 visits. Two days after I created a social media on facebook and twitter my views and visits were 24! Today my views are 114 and 76 visits and 20 follows! Even got some favorites and shop followers! I still haven't made my first sale yet but this exponential growth throughout the week has reinvigorated us! We know the sale is coming soon! This advice is true!
You always give such great advice, Heather. You make me feel better and more hopeful.
Heather should make a video how to search the facebook group and how to ask the admin to post there :")
Paid listings
I have a future videos coming out about this~ there’s many video requests in queue I’ve been working through. It’s not that I don’t want people to know~ the landscape of asking & joining FB groups have changed and many do not allow self/SB promotion so what worked for me is different now and I will give an updated FB Group & pagesStrategy video on this and what is do in 2023/2024. Asking the admin to post is just by messaging them on FB messenger though~ it’s super easy but most will either deny or ignore. Some require payment/affiliate deals now.
When I began it was free + most admins were open to it. Since sharing this strategy, many groups have strict policies and only allow actively involved long term group members, paid sponsorships or people they know. Again, this will be in future content. :)

You are best Etsy RUclipsr thank you so much for sharing your experience!
I made my first sale a couple weeks ago. I was so excited. Haven't had another since. Hopefully this helps 😊
Good morning, I'm wanted to sell on etsy as well and I would like to ask you how was your first days or your experience.
Thank you!
Thanks Heather ..for this very substantial video..cheers.
I love your bloopers..you are really good on here..thank you for all the information..
Thanks Heather. Great tips.
✨⭐️Wow thank you so much. You are so beautiful and articulate. Amazing information. It was motivating and inspiring. Sending good vibes your way Xx
Excellent video. Thank you.
Love your fails at the beginning :D Thank you very much for your advice! :)
Thank you that was great info, just subscribed :)
Heather, you really give me hope that my Etsy store will work out one day. I can't wait for that day to come & it will be from all of your help & great advice ! Do you offer one-on-one coaching at all ?
Thank you for speaking slowly, for making breaks between words and sentences, for breathing between, its so hard to find a video where people are not racing themselves!
😂😂😂 true!
Conversion rate should be number of people who purchased divided by number of visitors.
2/100=2%
You’re amazing thank you for all your guidance
Thanks you for all
Thanks for your very nice and informative vids! Nice holidays!
Thank you for the Super Thanks and supporting my content here! 🥰
You'r welcum! Your content gives me lots of motivation, inspiration and know how!@@itsheatherstudio
@Heatherstudio I love your advice. Your one of my top Etsy pros to watch. Do you do private shop reviews? Would be interested if yes
GREAT VIDEO!
This blooper thing is classic 😂
Thank you for this video. I'm two weeks into my digital products etsy shop and just like you I've had a lot of views but no sales yet and it's really discouraging at the moment.
Why don't you promote your store.
If you don't mind, I can help you to promote your store on social media platform and that will generate more traffic to your store and also improve your sales
That was amazingly helpful, thank you for that!
Thanks for watching and supporting my content!❤️
@@itsheatherstudio after this video I basically watched all of them 😅 def subscribed. And know I appreciate you!
I have an Etsy shop with over 2500 sales but I took a break because I was too ill to work. Now it's like I am starting all over again and it's actually been harder! Etsy have even put a block on sending my proceeds so I only get 25% of it. I don't understand that as I have solid 5* reviews! It's like wading through mud at the moment haha. But I have this one product that has a 10% conversion rate! It is the one listing out of 140 that has sold x
Thanks!
Thank you
hi heather, would like to give u a 5 star for tips, u are a good teacher...
tysm
what time is your 90 min class on 1/2/23? would love to watch!
@3:26 I believe, the formula you put is upside down.
I love the bloopers 😂
Heather, could make a video on how to make social media markeing to start?
Good morning, I'm new to your channel and wanted to sell on etsy.
Thank you for your content.
I have traffic but no sales
I was about to quit but somehow you make me to want to try again
A really helpful video, thank you. What do you think of Pinterest?
Thank you for all your tips Heather. I have 2 questions about eRank and Etsy. When I looked at spotted on Etys for my store, I see page 1 and the position it is in and I also see page 2 and the position.
Question 1 why aren't I getting sales or views on those
Question 2 Is this just an eRank thing with keywords they look for or does it have something to do with the algorithum? I get so confused on this stuff I'm sorry if that is a stupid question. I've only been open 139 days according to eRank.
I can't even market it through facebook. all it does is show the url and not the picture
Hello Heather, when you post in the Facebook groups, what exactly do you post? Thank you.
Good
3:25 Great video! 1 error tho… conversion rate = (visitors that buy / number of visitors)
How do you deal with returns?
Hi Heather Where is your info on creating a Facebook account?
Thank you so much Heather. Another RUclipsr recommends closing your shop and starting again if you don't get any sales in 2 months. Is that really a good idea? As though the shop is somehow already downgraded by Etsy. Seems such a waste of time after posting all your listings in one place. Would love your insight!
Thank you for these suggestions! One of the questions I have had for a while is how do you find niche specific fb groups? I have tried wording things several ways, but can never seem to find the right groups. I am in several groups that are supposed to be about bringing buyers and sellers together, but it seems to me like it's just a bunch of sellers listing things with no buyers, and it seems like a waste of time! Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
I am here to ask exactly the same
Why don't you promote your store. I can help you to Promote it on social media platform and for get more traffic tomyour store and that can even improve your sales
Why would buyers be in a group duh, look for like interest groups like if you make dog stuff find specific dog LOVER groups....put in time and gently mention your stuff or ask if you can advertise....interest groups!
Hi heather I have had 16 sales to date but. It’s been mostly printables so I have literally only made a few dollars. How do I know if this is going to work? I shouldn’t quit right? How do I know if my products such or if it’s just SEO? Also yes do you offer one on one coaching?
When checking the conversion is it in the past 30 days or all Time over all?
Thanks for the tips but to be fair I think all the POD sellers who started in 2021 and specially 2020 it was wayyyyyy easier for them to grow and get sales organically compare to someone like me who started in 2023!
Thank you for the information! Is there a video about how to network in FB group video to promote Etsy store like a step or good method? As I have heard, you can’t be too obviously promoting your business, group owner normally don’t like that and may treat it like a spam…
Hey. First, thanks for all the information. It's really helpful. One question. Can we use one print-on-demand service(Printify) for two stores at the same time(Shopify + Etsy) ?
Yes you definitely can! I had a Shopify and also a seperate Etsy shop and the plus of Printify is you can create items in your Etsy shop first(or Shopify vice versa) and select all>copy to the other shop. It quickens the pace a whole lot!
Thank u a lot, but there is always a secret key that no one will give it to you, You Have To Get IT By Your Self ! ! !
Hi. Thanks for this. I'm in the UK, but plans to target US customers.For now, my niches are self-love shirts and funny mugs. What kind of fb groups can i join to sell my products? Because my niches target a more general population..thanks
Is it effective to utilize social media prior to officially opening your shop? Like prepping for a grand opening? Or just open and see what happens?
what are you going to post without products
@@theblaqmarqet I didn’t say I didn’t have products. I would be listing the products leading up to a grand opening.
Could I please get a link to your store so that I can get inspiration? I think it would help a lot of other people as well. Thanks!
As always, she likely doesn't even have a store. Take everything you hear on the internet with a grain of salt.
They don't share their shops, so people don't copy them.
Where is your Facebook group Heather?
Thanks for the video! If you use tiktok, what kind of videos do you recommend making if we don’t actually have the product ourselves? Should we be buying samples for those videos?
You can by mockup videos on Etsy, PlaceIt mockups has some videos and also you can create your own videos in Canva. Hopefully this helps! :)
@@itsheatherstudio thank you again!
Just made a Facebook group just for my Etsy account. It’s called homeliving customs. I don’t have a lot right now but am trying to post something new on Etsy everyday. I wanna expand to other platforms. Etsy is is a starting point.
I'm on 94th in 3 months
On Facebook , did you have to ask admin approval first before you posted to the groups?
Depends on the rules of the group. Generally, no; if you're approved to be in the group, you're approved to start posting.
Hi Heather - what types of FB groups did you post in or how did you find them and/or get permission to post your links in the groups?
I have the same question. If I just know what to search for or what type of groups I'm looking for, then I'd be good.
Hi, Heather! Thanks for the great content! Do you think the amount of followers on instagram matters or is it the hashtags that drive the traffic to the shop?
Hi there! I think followers back your store with some social proof but in general it is the hashtags & engagement of posts that can really drive traffic on Instagram with their new algorithm changes. They have been showing accounts people don't follow now based on likes/comments & watch time(much like FYP on TikTok) so it's becoming more of a easier entry platform again unlike how it was in 2021 and 2022- just my opinion though as I've found I've had a few social media posts popping off and gaining followers quicker lately.
@@itsheatherstudio Thank you for the in-depth reply, Heather! I have seen engagement with my hashtags lately, which is nice! Really appreciate your tip to use all 30 hashtags!
I have also been wondering if you still do marketing for your store on social media. Or, are you able to rely solely on your organic traffic now? Just wondering how much of that I will need to do in the future. Thanks again!
Etsy is saying that listing was published and is in stock, but yet on the actual Etsy website it says Can’t be uploaded at the moment? Have you ever come across that?
the conversion rate supposed to be number who purchase per no. of visitor. = 2/100 x 100% = 2%
Do you have anither video that goes over how to use FB groups IDK this is just going over my head. Lol I follow like groups and do we post in them?
How do you find those niche groups?
Yes. I’d like to know that too, please.
Very curious as to why Etsy is suspending alot of accounts? I've tried to open 3x and they were suspended before I could even post! I have one but am so scared it will now😢
is it still possible to sell anything on etsy on 2023?
I thought 100/2 was 50 (not 2) but I know what you meant :) - I think it's supposed to be written (2/100)x100 =2
You are very pretty 😍
Where Where Where??????
Dylan, just found you and appreciate your content I'm starting an Etsy store with original art and prints hopefully Oct 1. How does someone get to that amount of sales with my niche? Did you create all these signs yourself or outsource and dropship?
but if you have no money Etsy charges you monthly to have all those listings. If its like .25 and you have hundreds of items, where are you getting that money if you have no sales? Sorry, Im new here lol and doing my best to get started. Im on month 2 w 2 sales and realized ive already done so much wrong and have to re-do over 100 items.
You pay for it out of pocket. It's .20 per item and I've been open for 139 days which is about a little over 4 months and I am just getting to 200 items. Take your time and breathe while you are fixing things. I've been in a lul this month so I'm going over stuff myself. Good Luck
5 months but only 16 sales :( 550 listings. Can't say I'm getting a lot of organic traffic. Running sales too..
Lovely girl ❤❤❤
I am took to you

Thanks beauty.......
Well it reached 160 sales then got suspended without any email after contacting them they said it was because of suspicious login and requested informations, it's been 25 days and they never replied after that.
months of effort wasted
I can help you to reinstate your suspended account within 42 hours
Message them through Twitter on a public posting. I found this worked for me.
Social media traffic will not give you quality score on Etsy
I am getting 2 visits in a day
I can help you to promote your store on social media platform and with that it will increase your sales and you can get visit and traffic from that
Your formula for conversion rate is upside down mathematically. Nevertheless, great info. Thanks for sharing!
You are very cute at blooperS🤣..Lovely😍❣❤...I saw bloopers 3 times 😂❣❣❣
super cool videos but all the pop up sounds distract me :)
Hi Heather, great video, but challenging to listen to with all the noises.
You are so beautiful :)
Good content but too many distracting bubble noises, bells and signs🙄
you are looking beautifull wow can you marry me world awesome girl i watching wowWwwW
Your video is very beautiful and you spoke a lot in it, but you said very little in all that speech. All this could have been said in a very short time, I think that your speech was limited to some already known and general phrases, otherwise you are a beautiful woman and a good speaker and you in right about some things
I’m in this rut at the moment so much spending on ads 😢 my shop is BrooklesArt
