    That's dope! I needed this encouragement. My hubby and I have created a t-shirt company recently. Our house burned down in July and we thought it would be a good way to earn our way out of the ashes that has become our lives. It's going slow but we practice everyday and I believe we will pick up soon. Gonna have to get some of your stickers so I can stay organized.

    Thank you for this video! I have been waiting FOREVER to open my sticker shop. I've been keeping a printer, Cricut machine, and other supplies in my Amazon cart for months, and I finally committed to purchasing them in December. Now I'm brainstorming designs, and I just gotta DO IT. When we first start out, the first few won't be perfect, but we can always look back on where we were and get better every time. Thanks for the inspiration!

    You don't know what a blessing this video has been. I've been sabotaging myself for a while to start on Etsy: it's not ready, not good enough, not perfect, etc. It even didn't matter if others told me how nice it looked. My husband told me not to wait until I feels perfect, to work on it while I've started or I'll never start. Your video is the little push that I needed to go for it.Thank you.

    So grateful for you being candid. It does help those of us that are Etsy store owners, because it is a side hustle and there are soooo many things entailed, and you're basically a "one woman show" owning a shop. You do have to throw yourself into it. There will be mistakes, but the mistakes are a part of the learning process and by you sharing your experiences, it helps to learn these tips and the broader aspect of owning your own business. Thanks for making the plunge! Praying you have continued success!!! 💖💖💖💖💖

    @JojozaHannaHawaii 5 лет назад +1

    I think that it also factors in that you have built such a great 'Budget' brand on RUclips so that when you rolled out your sticker line, people were like "FINALLY" and were already a built in audience. I started my Etsy shops a year ago and have made a few sales in one and none in the other (not sticker shops though) so while I'm glad I started, it's definitely been an ongoing, uphill struggle. One of the reasons I started my own YT is to showcase my items but also showcase my planning journey...
    As always, thank you for sharing your journey with us. Your continued success is amazing and motivating to those of us to are striving to do our own hustle and get in tuned with our own dreams.

    Thank you for posting this. I have wanted to open an Etsy shop for over 2 years now but I've been too scared to do it because I don't want to mess up with anyone's money and I don't know basically how to "sell" my products. I don't know what to put in the different sections and it's kept me from doing this for so long and I'm so frustrated with myself that I can't seem to just DO IT!! Seeing this today is encouraging

    Loved that you shared this! I've been postponing my side hustle for the same reason. This was an eye opener - how much money I'm probably losing. It's a matter of just taking the first jump! Thanks again for sharing, Shay!

    I want to thank you for being real about how much you actually made versus how much revenue you made. So many sellers don't actually show how much they actually make after all the fees and taxes.

    Thank you for being so transparent and honest. A lot of people don't like to talk about money. Money isn't everything, but its a necessity to live. I have had my Etsy shop since 2015 and I am looking to grow even more. My sales are int 100's and I know I am capable of more than that. I am a SAHM and its been super hard. I have been use to working since I was 14. I think seeing that I can bring in income from home would help boost my spirit on those "hard days" and motivate me to keep going. Do you offer classes on how to get traffic to your shop?

    Did all of your customers come from your RUclips channel? Because I've been on etsy for almost a year and I've made less than you in total! I've made 2449.33 and that is fees and taxes included. I think if that's the case you should mention that in your video. Of course you have worked hard on your RUclips channel so that's why in would be good to mention as not everyone has already a platform established to begin with. I know this is a year old and also haven't watched any other of your videos which i will do so now, but this is what came to my mind just from watching your video and you for the first time 🙂

      Exactly what i was thinking, getting 2,600 is alot of money to get in 2 weeks and doesnt really happen to people who are completely starting out and dont really have a following

      @Meera1.0 4 года назад +2

      It must be from existing followers right? Unless advertising was used?

    Thank you for sharing your information and your journey! I myself have been designing and using my own stickers for 3 years. I always have people ask what shop I get them from. When my planner group friends found out they asked me if I was going to open a Etsy shop. I wasn’t sure however my marriage of 13 years ended on Christmas (it’s a good thing) but I want to make a little extra money for my two boys and I to do fun things. Short answer, I’m going to open my shop now very soon!!!! I hope it is successful because I am also a perfectionist. 👍🏼❤️🤓
