I posted my store name before, I'll post my store name just in case: Discover Paradise: Please note that I know my mock ups suck. And I am working on trying to better mock ups. Also My niche is Flower designs. With some sub niche flower types. Edit: I also lack video for my POD store. So I am trying there also.
printedarteu - have a few sales, good christmas sales but under the year its quite slow. without ads not many views at all.. star seller will be gone by may (not enough sales) good review rate, and very good reviews. maybe just to expensive...
When you said 14 sales I thought it was my store for a second lol. But I'm slowly creeping up on 500 items now and I have been open a month. Would love a review, maybe not only what I'm doing wrong but what I might be doing right so I can stop what is harming my store and focus on what I might be doing right. My store is SoulshineDesignBrand, primarily focused on summer, vacation and resort wear using POD drop ship business model. Thanks for all the great videos!
At first I thought the same-oh no, either necklaces or the pictures, BUT then I noticed that every item is made using "fused glass", and then there was a tealight as well made of fused glass, so I think her niche could be fused glass handmade items/gifts/ home decor-I would just point it out the fused glass gifts etc.- on the banner, announcement, about section, even the shop's name... I think it could be a niche for her, but I would create more types of fused glass items, for sure
Yes, I addressed this in someone else's comment, the idea has merit, but the gap to get the store there is too large, based on what is in the store currently. I could do this work with them in a consultation, but for the video, I gave the easier, actionable steps to help get the store moving and then hopefully the main stumbling block (product quality), will get ironed out.
Hello and thank you so much for all of your videos. I have watched at least 20 of them. I keep hearing you say to always list with stock depth. Many of my items are one of the kind however. I would love for you to look at my storefront!
I looked at your store, I have been selling crystals for 10 years, and the number 1 thing you need to do is list a LOT more inventory, and you will make a lot more sales. Try to head towards 500 items, and you will see a big difference in sales.
He did say in another video (I forget which) that no, you should not. But if you do run a sale for a holiday or something make it a bit long. Like at least a week or 2 he said if I recall because Etsy isn’t the best at sending the sale notifications for people who favorite etc. so it gives them time to order. This is opposite what everyone else says. They say sales increases your quality score and you should run sales for only 24 hours and run them daily.
@@JackGrimesDesignsyeah I don’t recall which one it was as I’ve watched so many recently lol as I just found his videos and haven’t watched them all yet.
Thank you for giving me your opinions on my Etsy shop, Nick and all. I have taken on board all comments and added, banner etc. I have added sections to the shop and after removing all of the pendants I now intend to reactivate them in their own section as I believe that, as they are all fused glass, they belong together in the same shop. I must admit that I am hurt by the comments on the poor quality of my items. It’s taken me this long to be able to respond to this. I don’t understand why people can be so hurtful. These are handmade items that take a lot of thought and love to produce.
Hi Carole, thanks for your comment, I am sorry if my critique of your store upset you, that of course was not my intention. I have to balance being fair, but also getting to the point of why store's don't sell well, which is what I was covering in your store. I wish you good luck with your store, especially as we move towards Christmas.
I love store reviews! You said on her shop she must choose between art prints or jewelry to avoid confusion. I have this problem, I'm planning to sell handmade physical products soon, but I have digital instant download art prints already. I was thinking can I still be successful on selling both? I'll make sure it's clear in category section. The designs are both in one target audience. 🙏

I disagree with the assessment that she needs to remove "By Carol's Artistry" from her title because "nobody knows who that is and nobody searching for it" as a blanket consideration for everyone to take in. While I do think Nik is right in this case - as evidenced by the fact that she isn't getting sales - I actually have my name as a tag as well as incorporated in the title of my listings because, I'm known for what I do outside of Etsy - I've built a brand. Some people familiar with what I offer, don't necessarily remember the name of my Etsy shop and so they'll come to the platform wanting to purchase from me, so what they'll do is type in my name and the product that I sell. And that helps them find me in search. I found this out from studying the search analytics that Etsy provides as well as seeing what key words are leading people to my individual items.
@@etsyconsultant But that should be in her about page, right. If she puts in her about page who Carol artistry is and what they're about it doesn't really need to be in the individual items right because it's in the about page and doesn't that also pull people in or I'm not really sure how the about page works but sometimes people are curious on what you're about so.
Fused glass is the connecting theme. Carole's work is fantastic, she really deserves to get noticed. The shop name "CarolesArtistry" would benefit by being changed to something like "FusedGlassbyCarole". This would make the focus of the shop explicit to any prospective customer, which will be really critical for sales. The current name is too unspecific and grammatically incorrect (it's missing the apostrophe in Carole's)... neither of these things gives a good impression to a prospective customer, and it appears unprofessional and would prompt me to look elsewhere. Combine new shop name with improved photos and SEO, and this shop will be flying. :)
Thanks for your comment. I sat and thought about it for a while, and there is merit in your line of thinking. However the issue is centered around the quality of products currently being offered. If the store were to sell to Etsy's gift mode, and have a wholesale upgrade, and start to sell gift sets, themes and bundles, it is possible. However, with what I was presented with, the gap is far too wide, and it would be better to develop one area and go from there. Good comment though, thank you.
Another great video with tips to improve Etsy store ... too bad I discovered you when China is coming 😁Thank you Nic for your effort, much appreciated your advices.
ever since I took my copyrighted patterns off etsy, I can't sell anything.I am selling digital supplies,bookmarks,stickers,wreaths,and I have 2 new products coming out which is sea glass and heating pads. I am puting on one to three a day and I have been running a sale.
I make badges, stickers and other home made items. Designs I make myself. I had actually already made the designs over day and half. But I added them all to Etsy in a day
Very interesting. I too sell fused glass pictures. And I’d like to know what you do if each of your pieces are unique and one off. I can’t have the availability as more than 1 ever.
You say have deeper stock - what if it’s psychically you’re not able to make more than a couple at once? 😅 I’m happy if I can get to 5-10pcs in each listing with over 200 items total in my shop, so I at least try to make over 10 for the stock in the most selling listings. I’m working on stocking up one at a a time though!💪
Hi Nic My name is Tabisa, and i am the owner of Lifetime Souvenirs, a gift store that's a year old; currently its dying or dead and i sincerely need advice whether to close it or try to revive, if you say revive, how do i do that! Thank you so much for your time!
Beautiful dichro work Carole! Nik, I'm back into confusion around your niche definitions again. Are there no sucessful stores that sell a range of items including Carole's along a unifying theme such as wood, metal etc? Also, could you estimate how many jewellery shops you've worked with that have seen noticeable increases in performance after changing to photographing their pieces on a model? My gut says buyers could be worried about hygiene & prior wear & that most would check review photos to see the jewellery being worn but I'm more than happy to be proved wrong (& make the necessary changes) if you've got the data that demonstrates this change increases views & conversion rates? Appreiate your insights :)
Hi Hannah, yes there are, you can succeed in many different ways, either tight into one niche and subniche set, or multiple niches and sub niches, my point in all this, is that based on 10 years of working on thousands of stores, single niche stores with sub niches tend to perform better and make sales faster. In terms of model shots, I have built a lot of jewelry stores, and I can tell you buyers don't care about model shots and hygiene, they assume they will be getting a new piece of jewelry unworn. I have never seen a single message in the hundreds of jewelry stores I have worked on where someone asked this question. I am not saying people don't ask, but I can say with confidence it is nothing to worry about. To answer your model shots views and conversion rates, you will have to take my word for it, I have been doing this for 10 years, and have come across jewelry stores in all sorts of disrepair, and the first thing I do is improve the photography and video, traffic goes up, and IF the jewelry is in demand, so does the conversion rate. Phew! Thanks Hannah!
@etsyconsultant Phew indeed! Lol! Thanks for taking the time to reply. Your videos have encouraged me to improve & increase my listings. It's a slow process but there's noticeable progress & I'm no longer completely embarrassed by my shop! Now if only Etsy would leave the lights on a little longer...
Great video as always. I'm wondering if you had a store with 2 (or more) kinds of items and each were selling would you recommend splitting into 2 (or more) stores to make each store solely dedicated to that kind of item.
Hi there thanks for your comment. It depends on how many sales you have for these products already. If they are selling well I wouldn't open another store.

When you initially launch your store, how many listings should I upload on the first day? Because listing 1 per day is going to take for ever if you sell digitals.
Want to open a vintage store selling vtg jewellery, bags, gloves, compacts, china, paperweights, postcards, and similar. Connection between all of them is they are all 1960s and earlier in age, there will be a date/decade stated in every title. Is this too diverse a mix for the etsy algorithm to be able to work out? I don't want the hassle of running multiple stores, but will it kill my store completely to have this much diversity? thanks

Nik! Help!! My etsy store just got suspended temporarily because I forgot to update the payment information on my cards. I quickly fixed it and sent the payment, but now that the shop has been suspended what happens to my quality score? Do i need to open a new shop?
@@etsyconsultantyes it was 100% from Etsy. I double checked before doing anything. If my shop was suspended for only a few hours does that wreck my quality score?
I opened a digital download shop one month ago, I now have about 45 listings, made 2 organic sales. My concern is there are about 155 views, 8 favorites with just 2 sales. Will the amount of views vs so few favorites negatively affect my quality score?
Hi there, thanks for your comment. Congratulations on your 2 sales, that's great considering how long you have been open. Don't worry too much about the stats right now, focus on what I advise for your first 3 months on Etsy, video link below: ruclips.net/video/4GrTnCReu2c/видео.htmlsi=EXm72L0ObXasMd4K
I have a question. I've posted too many listings for the amount of time I've been in business and I'm wondering, would it be okay if I didn't list items for a few days before continuing? I plan to do one listing a day after my little break.
Vintageh2h I’m adding one item a day as you suggest and it is helping! I just can’t get consistent sells. Do you think the odd name of my shop could affect searches for my shop?

Hey Nick what should we do when a listing that have never sell expired? Renew it as it is, copy and change it as it was a new listing or just leave it? Thank you so much!!
That is how my store works, I have a bit of everything and cannot stick to one subject only. I have a mixture from an automotive hydrometer to a paperweight!
there is a clear relation here - they are all made of fused glass- I would go for fused glass only items as her niche, and then the different types of products would be fine, in my opinion, as long as they are made of fused glass
I don’t see what the issue is with having the art and the fused glass jewelry in one shop ? If the Etsy “ algorithm “ doesn’t understand it then the issue is with Etsy surely. The first thing I see as a customers point of view is in all honesty ( and I don’t mean to sound rude ) i just don’t see anything appealing. This seller should be looking at what’s in fashion at the moment. By that I mean style, colour etc. Make what sellers want to buy.
Hi Susan, the store has two totally separate niches going on, and on top of that I do agree the quality needs work. Having two niche areas weakens store profile/identity and the Etsy algorithm thrives on knowing what a shop is all about, especially when it comes to surfacing products in partial search or non search areas of the site (Gift Mode).

Nik! Help!! My etsy store just got suspended temporarily because I forgot to update the payment information on my cards. I quickly fixed it and sent the payment, but now that the shop has been suspended what happens to my quality score? Do i need to open a new shop?
I hope this message was from Etsy and you didn't click on a link that took you out of Etsy.
@@etsyconsultantyes it was 100% from Etsy. I double checked before doing anything. If my shop was suspended for only a few hours does that wreck my quality score?
It was very useful review for me, because I also developing my art shop🙏But, I will be full prepelared before I share my shop for review❤
Looking forward to it!
So my store is getting sales from persons marked with guest tag only. What does it mean ? Why isn't an etsy buyer not showing up? What is the reason?
It simply means the customer has not registered for an Etsy account.
Hi there thanks for your comment. I think it just means that they are checking out as a 'guest' rather than creating an account on Etsy.
Does StartSeller status icreae your sales by much?
Unfortunately not, it has no significant effect Rich.
Would you recommend any SEO placement or anything else specific for the shop announcements and about pages?
Hi, these locations are not used for Etsy SEO, and I would not waste much time thinking about these locations in terms of SEO.
I opened a digital download shop one month ago, I now have about 45 listings, made 2 organic sales. My concern is there are about 155 views, 8 favorites with just 2 sales. Will the amount of views vs so few favorites negatively affect my quality score?
Hi there, thanks for your comment. Congratulations on your 2 sales, that's great considering how long you have been open. Don't worry too much about the stats right now, focus on what I advise for your first 3 months on Etsy, video link below:

@@etsyconsultant Thank you!
I have a question. I've posted too many listings for the amount of time I've been in business and I'm wondering, would it be okay if I didn't list items for a few days before continuing? I plan to do one listing a day after my little break.
Hi, try it and see how it goes.
Hi there, thanks for your comment, I have answered this on another comment you posted.
TrueKindSpiritTarot, I have about 1200 sales but I'm looking to level up, what do you suggest
Hi Andrea, thank you, I have noted your store too!
Vintageh2h I’m adding one item a day as you suggest and it is helping! I just can’t get consistent sells. Do you think the odd name of my shop could affect searches for my shop?
You have some cute things. I liked several of your salt and peppers, the watermelon is so cute and I liked the Tupperware set. Perfect for an RV.
@@Tawny593 thank you so much!
Hi there thanks for your comment. No the shop name should not affect search, I recommend that you book a call so that I can help you further. ( I love those bud vases!). Links below to book:

Hey Nick what should we do when a listing that have never sell expired? Renew it as it is, copy and change it as it was a new listing or just leave it? Thank you so much!!
Hi Lucy, deactivate after 12 months with no sales.
@etsyconsultant thank you so much, you're the best
what if you're no longer going to make that product and its on the last 1 or 2?
Just let it sell out, or sell it elsewhere.
@@etsyconsultant ty!
But there are many stores with different products , related of course…
That is how my store works, I have a bit of everything and cannot stick to one subject only. I have a mixture from an automotive hydrometer to a paperweight!
there is a clear relation here - they are all made of fused glass- I would go for fused glass only items as her niche, and then the different types of products would be fine, in my opinion, as long as they are made of fused glass
Yes, this is indeed possible, the issue is product quality.
Yes it can work, it depends on what you are selling, and competition.
Yes it can work, especially if you are not selling the same things as everyone else.
Aurora Art Fantasy ❤
Thanks 😊
No problem 😊
Maybe she should go with whatever it was that started selling.
Hi there, thanks for your comment!
Luna Creative Crafts thank you
Your wreaths are just gorgeous. I saw several I wanted. Pricey, but that's what good wreaths can cost.
Do you really have 1000 items??
Thank you Deborah!

Can you review my store ?

I don’t see what the issue is with having the art and the fused glass jewelry in one shop ? If the Etsy “ algorithm “ doesn’t understand it then the issue is with Etsy surely. The first thing I see as a customers point of view is in all honesty ( and I don’t mean to sound rude ) i just don’t see anything appealing. This seller should be looking at what’s in fashion at the moment. By that I mean style, colour etc. Make what sellers want to buy.
Hi Susan, the store has two totally separate niches going on, and on top of that I do agree the quality needs work. Having two niche areas weakens store profile/identity and the Etsy algorithm thrives on knowing what a shop is all about, especially when it comes to surfacing products in partial search or non search areas of the site (Gift Mode).
