Sounds to me like your success is pretty amazing (and absolutely deserved!). I launched my shop last week and am just hoping for my first sale. Thanky you for giving advice to others, thats very precious!
I recently left my full-time job to start a small art business. Art has always been a passion of mine, but I was unable to pursue it formally due to my parents' objections. Now that I've saved up, I'm taking a leap of faith and turning my dream into a reality. While I'm nervous about leaving a stable income and starting from scratch, I'm determined to follow my heart. I understand that there will be challenges, but I'm ready to learn and grow. Thank you for your videos and advice, Paperkoa! (૭ ｡•̀ ᵕ •́｡ )૭
@@pennpeel8 Yayay congrats on starting your small art business! It’ll definitely come with a lot of challenges, but it’s extremely fulfilling and rewarding to be able to do what you love! Wishing you all the best 💕
I just came back from your page and whattt you're just a pro! No way nothing like a noob you really are talented so taking the risk by left your full time job for starting you artbiz now is just a brilliant! I'm rooting for your success✨👊🏻
@@teenateen8463 aaaa thank you so much for your kind words! That seriously means a lot 🥹🩵 Knowing there are people like you cheering me on makes it all feel so special 🫂💖 I still have a long way to go, but I’ll keep learning and improving 🫶🏻🥹
It is so inspiring to see "small" Creators who have successful business talk about their experience. I started selling my crocheted keychains a month back and it can be so easy to lose motivation. There are so many things going on in my mind regarding the prices, quality, if i am doing enough, if it is even worth it. Thank you for this video! It showed me that i shouldn't try to start from the peak of others. I need to do the work and reach my own peak and that isn't impossible
Small business (jewelry edition!) here - your pieces are so adorable! I've been making jewelry for a year+ now, and I've only made $200ish in that time, though all of those have been friends commissions. Hopefully I can take your advice accordingly! ❤😅 Happy crafting everyone, and just remember, practice makes perfect ❤!!
@@Rafef-d4x Thank you! I have some of my room products linked in my Amazon Storefront. If there’s any products you’re curious about that’s not linked, let me know. I’m traveling the next couple months so I won’t be able to do a room tour anytime soon 😔
@@robzombie69 I personally find that relying on Etsy to market my art is not enough 😣 Only 10% of my sales come from Etsy and I bring in the rest of the sales from my social media accounts. If you can, I highly recommend posting your art on social media. It’s the easiest way to reach new people and drive customers to your Etsy shop. You can also try researching Etsy SEO to help your art show up better on search!
Thank you so much for this video it has helped me a lot to grow my own business But I have a question I am a 12 year old with a small business business and I sell my Stickers in my school My mom is strictly against having a business at this young age So how do I tell her
I want to start my needle felting small business but then I'm afraid if I charge acording to the value, i won't get customers due to the time it takes, which is very long 😐 but i will try.
@@xsnowxx Another option is to offer your art at different price points. You can try coming up with some easier designs that you can sell at an affordable price. Then charge a premium price for more complex pieces. Best of luck with your needle felting business 💗
@@paperkoa459 yup i do have the options after consideration 🙂 but i still prefer to do the one that takes longer time, haha😆. Thanks tho for the opinion 🙂
hey i follow you on ig and this video randomly popped up on my recommended which i was so excited about because i didn’t know you had a youtube channel. Thank you so much for this video it was really helpful as someone who’s trying to start a clay business as we speak
Thank you for sharing your experiences, it’s very inspiring, I’m going to try to start my small business up once again. I just don’t post as much on social media. But I need to! Definitely needed to hear this! 🫶🏻🥰
@@ШмуэльГринштэйн If you’re not seeing results with selling your art online, you can also try doing in-person markets! Certain art mediums such as prints and stickers tend to sell better in an in-person setting. I’m positive there are people out there who will love your art! You just have to put yourself out there so people can find your art 💖
girl, you say ur stats aren’t that good but TRUST they’re fire. even making 200 seems fire to me
