I think what you helped me accept, is that the difference between a money-making shop such as your example versus my own struggle, is that you really have to conduct research on what people are looking for. The goal is to find that combination of “love doing it” and people searching for it. That combination is crucial so whatever your niche is, creating doesn’t become a chore. Although the same can be said for struggling; staying motivated can become a chore. Thank you for the real life example.
I really appreciate you sharing this! I agree find that balance and combination is very important.
There is no thing such as staying motivated discipline is everything imo atleast
@@brandontimothy ikr
I watched your videos, love them btw, got motivated and went to start my own shop but I couldn't because I'm in a country that's not supported by etsy payments.
I recommend researching to see whether your country IS IN THE ETSY PAYMENTS so you don't get disappointed.
So much great info! Thank you 🥰
Thanks. I will try this. I'm a digital artist and traditional artist so I'm leading with digital products and commissions on etsy as well print on demand later down the line once I test a few products myself. I'll be launching this month. I don't expect a high volume of sales but it will be good to just start something new.
I a digital artist as well going through cafepress starting within this month as well.
Mind my asking my asking how things are going on Etsy? Is it fairly easy navigating being a seller?
Very inspiring video,Brandon Timothy! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for the step-by-step guide.
woahhhh. So cool Brandon. So happy for your success man!!
Really inspiring! Thanks!
Brandon... hats off!.. You really know how to prove a point. I'm impressed, again. I have enough motivation, but my confidence was going down in the last few days.. and here you are. Thank you so much! :) You're.. just in time! 😂
You got this! Best of luck with your Etsy seller journey and thank you for watching 🙏
Awesome!!! I started in 2019 but listed nothing until 2 weeks ago. I’m really working hard on getting some sales in
Girl, give us an update.
Thank you for the video. I feel like your video was very genuine in conveying how you would like ur viewers to succeed and in explaining all the steps in doing so ,very well and not all wishy washy like other channels and for that reason I have subscribed. Thank you so much . Hopefully I will be selling soon on etsy as well.thank you once again.
Those are definetly not all the steps. He's omiting alot and seems like he's unwilling to actually show how he actually made that money.
Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge.
This is really helpful, Thank you very much!
Awesome video, keep it going man!
great video video Brandon! if you could please make a more in depth video, i know you worried about video length but you could add so much value
Hi Brandon! Thank for this helpful video! I am currently selling digital items but am thinking on including physical items with the same designs of my digital downloads. Do you know if we can sell both physical and digital in one shop? If yes, can I integrate with a print on demand service or would that affect my digital listings? If anyone has any advice please comment. I would really appreciate it!
Congrats. You crushed it this year so far.
I appreciate it! Thank you!
Love your channel, thanks for your info!
Thank you for watching!
Thank you for the inspiration! ✨
Thank you for watching! 🙌
Do some more videos about shops for artists. Some of us would go mad designing planners!
Am totally doing this bro.
Hi Brandon! Quick question. Whats better to starting a good online shop. We need to focus in one Online Shop or it's okay to open another shop? Like... Etsy... Shopity.... Etc.
Hi. What do you recommend for iPad users? I haven’t been able to use the Everbee extension
When researching key words, what type of volume do you aim for? I have a bunch of low competition keywords for my niche but the search vol is often only around 100 to 150. Wondering if this is enough or i should be targeting higher competition words (but also higher search vol)?
thanks for sharing this video! you show your revenue for the first part of this video and then work with the EverBee and Canva! This is happening with all the youtube Etsy videos and honestly, people who watched this video were looking for more details regarding your revenue and how you succeed in the first 3 or 4 months! if you don't want to tell people please change your title!
Hi Brandon! I love your channel! Great information. what is the best file to use when selling a digital product? Should I be using a PDF zip file? like if they want to upload my digital planner to their tablet, which one would I use?
Thank you Brandon. I see the peanut gallery, the heavy duty doubters got busy leaving comments. It still surprises me how many ignorant people sit on the sidelines criticizing instead of getting to work. Just means more money for those of us building rewarding businesses. I appreciate you Brandon!
I appreciate you! Thank you for the support and all the best to you 🙌
So have you dramatically increased your sales and profits using Everbee?
Should someone not choose "commercial" or "extended commercial" when buying the mockups?
Just commenting to say I love all the plants in your background!
Oh thank you!
What microphone are you using? Sounds amazing
I would be interested to know how much the Ad spend was to the nearest thousand, I am skeptical of that amount of traffic so fast no matter what niche.
great video. I have been doing print on demand on etsy for the last year now and I'm definitely going to open a digital products store.
Both great options 🙌
Great 😊
Hi Brandon, Great content !!! A quick question... how do i let people know about my products ? Are there ADS to do like on pinterest ? Thanks
Nice! I really should get started on this... how long did you have to wait to be paid?
Great video! How much do you usually spend on ads initially?
Good for you!
Hello! Thank you for your job and for sharing this information ☺️
I have one question about Creative Market licensing. Tell me please what type would you recommend: Commercial or Extended Commercial?
Thanks in advance
Hello there, how’s it going? I have a question you can hopefully help me with. I have a digital product, it’s a daily planner page, but I can only download it as a png to my Etsy. I heard that using a pdf is best so the purchaser can print or use it as a pdf on their electronic device, but for some reason I can see it, however the pdf for my product isn’t even highlighted as an option for me to download to my shop ..not sure where I’m going wrong, if it’s a MacBook issue, or I am misinformed & Etsy just doesn’t even allow pdfs? I can’t find a solution anywhere to completely automate the system (even tho I haven’t made any sells yet, so who knows) Anyhoo, I appreciate your time, take care!
How does it just blow up over night like that? There has to be more to it than just setting up and Etsy and putting digital products on your shop.. What's the catch
Does it work for an italian guy living in italy and selling worldwide?
Thank you so much bro ...God bless
Can you tell us how you got the traffic? Was it SEO, ads, social media?
Is it best to start a whole new shop to sell Digital items? I have a physical item shop in the UK, which has some digital products in their own category on my shop. I wondered if it's better to have a totally separate shop for digital items? Rather than having a shop that sells both? Thank you
Can someone explain to me what the purpose of the product mockup is? I'm not understanding! Thanks!
Can you maybe make a video on the random things about Etsy like how much percentages they take how much you’re really taking home after Etsy fees so you can budget for expansion?
Good idea, I'll make a video on this topic soon
Great content! Can you do a video with a full A-z Etsy niche/keyword research? You said that you dont want to go 'that' deep now, but it would be very useful to us :) Thank you!
Definitely. Thank you for the feedback
I second this!
Would love for this to happen, and for Alex Lamper to get a shout out on the bid for the comment/request
Every Etsy seller video shows basically how to be inspired by existing listings. What about how to drive traffic to something new and unique?
Hey! Did you use any ads on this etsy shop or was it purely organic traffic? Also, how many listings did you have to earn that revenue?
Nice work 🎆✨
Hi,
Thank you for the tutorial, very helpful!!
I want to ask you about account suspension. My first account was closed because of a non-good strategy, after that, I opened a new one on another computer with different data. But after 3 days I'm surprised with a red message telling me my account is suspended. I didn't upload any products, just the first one in the creation account steps.
Can you help me to open a new shop without suspension, if you have a good strategy?
Very interesting !!!!
where are you listing your ads for the digital products to gain traction?
Hi liked the video! Do you need to have a sellers permit to sell digital products?
Question how do you claim Etsy now on Pinterest ?
I'm still haven't found a way to write product description the right way.
Do you have a video on that?
Thank you
I have a question about how you drive traffic to a new store?
After buying mock ups, do you then edit them in canva to make them your own? Or how does that work ? Thanks
It depends on but I do different mockups, so different products have a different one.
Great video! Could you do a video about your Etsy Ads strategy? I think a lot of people would be interested in hearing that.
Yes I will. I totally forgot to mention it in this video. I’ll explain more on it in the next vid. Stay tuned!
Hello Brandon, hope you are ok, first thank you for your amazing videos, chanel and helps. Please how can I get some sells without ADS because I'm new on Etsy? Thank you
❤️🙏🏼❤️ Thank you!
Designing this store and the free templates are sheit!
What tool are you using for ecom research? How are you able to see which products are most popular so quickly?
Great info. I subscribed👍
Thanks for the sub! 🙌
Great video, Brandon! Just a quick question. If I am planning to start a store selling canva templates, do you suggest I open a general store selling canva templates for multiple niches OR do you suggest I open a store selling canva templates in 1 niche only for example canava template for online coaches, canva templates for gym owners etc.?
In this case, you can put it all in one shop, however I would start with one type of Canva template first, then slowly expand into the other styles of templates. Reason is because each sub niche requires different types of mock-ups. And it’ll take a looong time to design them all
@@brandontimothy Thanks Brandon! One last question. If I have a canva pro account then can I sell the templates I make on canva pro on Etsy? Or can I only sell canva templates that are made under canva’s free account on Etsy?
This is so helpful. Thank you but I do have a question. Are mocks ups necessary? Or can it be something that you can create yourself?
Yup you can definitely create it yourself. It’s definitely a whole other skill set to do so - photography, photoshop skills etc
where do i find your products on Etsy?
Hey Brandon, thanks for this amazing video! I want to ask if you use ads in the second month ? Because there is a huge diffrence in revenue between first and second month
I'm wondering the same
I love the mind set and had to subscribe.. Since I just opened my first Esty shop Yesturday with a 75 listings.. its been not even 24 hours and I cant stop refreshing the page until I get my first sale.. I can tell anyone reading this that I have watched many videos in regards to this topic and 90% are the exact same as this. ( not bashing, saying that he knows what he is saying and stop research how to, and starting doing it based of what you see here! I will be doing updates as well on my channel as time goes on if anyone is interested and seeing how a regular smock does. Like This Comment if you want to to report back here in a week or so!
any update??? :)
how's it going mate?
Thank you very much for this video, its very helpful. I have a question though. At 10:57 of the video, the options for the mockup are $30 for personal, $35 for commercial and $350 for extended.
I assume that in order to sell, you need at least the commercial one. What are the differences between the commercial and the extended commercial? Is it like how many times it can be sold, or how many years the license can be used?
thank you
if you use it for your business its commercial, if selling their product is your actual business you need extended commercial, so for example a wedding planner would buy commercial, an Etsy or eBay seller would need to buy the extended commercial
@@itzmatty1906 Funny how he left out that tiny little detail. Might have missed a subscription affiliate opportunity.
So all shops you manage are under your identification?
Man this type of stuff makes me discouraged lol. I’ve been doing everything to get sales and I’m seeing all these new shops just blow up instantly. Somebody new in my niche got 700 sales in 3 weeks with 2 week shipping, when I’m right here with 3 day shipping
Don’t be discouraged! Keep practicing your e-comm skills and eventually you’ll improve on your craft. The first couple shops I opened many years ago didn’t work out, but I just kept going and learned new things from each venture. I was hoping this video would inspire & motivate, rather than to discourage :(
Same here I follow advice I’ve spent money on courses, watched countless YT videos and nothing. I’d like someone to actually sit with me and prove that this can happen, essentially I am out of money.
@@Exploreyourmind24 Many people use social media to bring traffic. But in my opinion if you have to use social media, you might as well have your own website to bring traffic. Then it depends on your product. Some things just don't do well on Etsy.
I'm feeling the same, been on Etsy for a year now and not one sale with over 100 products. I guess no likes art these days or maybe they do-just not my designs.
I am curious, what kind of product are you selling?
Since this video, there are so many digital wedding planner products on etsy now haha
Hey Brandon! Just fouud your channel and so stoked I did! I've been researching to open an etsy shop and using EverBee right now. Its so inspirational to see how fast your shop grew in such a small amount of time! Do you use a POD service? Thanks so much for putting in the time to help everyone!
Digital product
It’s really not shocking that he didn’t reply, but whatever happened with your Etsy shop?!?!?
I’m just starting my own. Super curious your experience.
I appreciate your channel. I'm completely new to earning on etsy. I wanna try but don't know how. Would be grate if you could show people like me how to create digital products like digital planners. Many thanks.
What should I do if I am from another country, Kazakhstan, which is not in Etsy Payment? I want to launch a digital product shop...
This is really motivating but just curious, how much did you spend on ads?
Do you provide training on ETSY business as well?
Did you use ads to drive more traffic to your Etsy store?
Still so many questions. Can you make a full step by step video on how you did that, please.
God bless you
Where is the link to your ETSY on what you sell on your account?
Great video, How many products did you start with? and did you advertise?
Great content. Started an etsy shop ut had to give up as i wasn't getting any sales after a long time.
You got this! Wish you all the best on your Etsy journey 🙏
Felt that he was vaguely going through the shop success.
What jump spike the growth tremendously- ads?
Which broad category of digital product is he in?
lm disappointed with this disguised everbee ad. 😩
Please, tell us what happened to the cake topper store you stated. very interested
Why isn't there link to this etsy shop, so we can see it?
What office chair is that? Thanks
I live in Italy but I want to open an Etsy Shop in the US selling cliparts and digital products. Is it possible? Do I need an LLC?
Do you need to have a company inside your country? How does that work?
Hi Brandon i just new in here and i have 1 question if you don't means, may i know you shop name at etsy? Thank you
Hi Brandon I started my shop last month however 0 sales
i don't have any bank account . is it possible to make account to Etsy shop as seller?
Make it so easy
Another thing to know about Canva is that you need to create your own templates/design, or else it is copyrighted.
Yeah, a lot of people keep using canva templates and tweaking already made designs
Hey Brandon, good video - thanks for the content.
I have a quick question. I had a very active t-shirt store from 2018 - 2020 that did over 1,000 sales but it's languished since and it's basically not operating. I'm planning to launch a series of digital products in the next few weeks. Do you suggest I re-brand my existing store to take advantage of the reviews, age, and sale count OR start a new store from scratch?
Hi John
Wow, I love the fact that you've making sales
But will you like us to talk?
are there any marketing and further advertising strategys involed in oppening a Shop like that or does it only rely on the right title and tags?
SEO too.
how do you outsource customer service for etsy? I like the idea of passive income, but getting bogged down by customer service doesn't seem appealing.
Hi Brandon, were you able to do these numbers fully without using Etsy Ads?
Hi, I just discovered your channel and I really like it, can you put the translation in your videos to French language because my English is basic. thank you
Are you available for 1x1 consult?
