Hi Brandon, Thank you for this video! I started my Etsy shop 6 days ago and just received my first order, currently at 20 listings 🎉 The first days I’ve watched a lot of your video’s which helped me out a lot. Keep up the good work 🙏🏼
Hi, this was super helpful. Thank you. I am in the process of setting up an Etsy account (and Teachers Pay Teachers). I would love to be able to add digital posters of different sizes so that people can print what ever size they need. If you have time to demonstrate this, I would really appreciate it. Thank you.
wow. what a coincidence, I opened my Etsy shop with your link yesterday. but unfortunately while adding my listing, my shop got suspended. I just added a flower painting digital print. I have emailed the help center. keeping fingers crossed 😊. u inspired me to open my shop. thanks.🙏🏽
@@brandontimothy only problem I have now is that while trying to open the Etsy shop,I am not able to bcos Nigeria is not listed to sell on Etsy. Any suggestions?
I wish I could get past setting up an Etsy account. I'm stuck on the shipping part. I have three shipping profiles-can't delete any of them, can't get human help and can't move forward from the shipping errors. I was hoping your video might help. I'm ready to give up and just go door to door to sell my walnut castle leg end table with zebra wood inlay. Maybe Ebay would be a bit more user-friendly than spending this last week spinning my wheels? Please let me know what you think?
I recommend using a laptop or desktop. Setting up your shop, and managing listings and shop details is more efficient on a larger screen. However, once your shop is up and running, you can easily handle customer service using your phone through the Etsy app.
Is it true that ..If our country is not eligible for Etsy Payments, we won’t be temporarily able to open an Etsy store, even if we have a PayPal account...?? Please reply
hi brandon, Can I take orders from USA if I registered my shop in canadian credentials and does it have to do anything with the etsy algorithm that it won't push my products in USA rather it will show in canada?
Yes, you can absolutely take orders from the USA even if you've registered your shop with Canadian credentials. Etsy's algorithm doesn't typically restrict your products based on your shop's location.
Hi Brandon, Thank you for this video! I am currently gathering information and learning about how to start my Etsy shop. I am new in Canada and would love to know if I am expected to register my business with the government of Canada before I can open an Etsy shop? I can see I'd be asked if it's a sole proprietorship or incorporated business I look forward to your response. Thank you again!
When I got to the part where it says "how you'll get paid", they said they would deposit a small amount into my bank account in order to verify my bank account.. it took many days but they finally did that, then a few days later they said they couldn't verify my account and to fill out my bank info again and they would resend another small deposit... It has been a couple days and I still haven't recieved the small deposit... is all this normal? I can't move on to the next steps at all... thank you to anyone who can help!!
Hi , I am trying to set up an account to sell my crochet products but I stopped when I was asked for my ssn, is that necessary to add my ssn? I am new and have never sold anything online before. I'm freaking out lol
@@brandontimothy Thanks, Brandon. I tried creating an account last night but the bank I use wasn't listed. I guess its not open to Guyanese sellers as yet. Is there an alternative I can try?
Hi! Try a quick reboot or refresh. Cleaning out your browser cache for a fresh start might help, and consider using a different browser. Check if your computer is working well and your internet service provider is stable. Also, ensure your images are the right size for smooth uploading. I hope these work for you.
Brandon, you have a lot accounts right? Im trying to open new shop in 2023 but it was suspened for no reason :( Now after trying so many times I open and run a shop over 200 sales. I want to open the 2nd shop , how can I open it? can i use the same laptop and bank account. Tks so much your reply will help me a lot
Hi dear. I'm facing same problem with my Easy account. It was suspended without any reason. How did you get it back? Please share your experience. Thank you so much.
Your tips really are very helpful, but do you mind advice me what should I do in the part of the credit card, I am Canadian living in Canada and I do NOT have a credit card, does this part accept a Debit Card instead?? Thanks
Hi, are you setting up on the actual Etsy site? I recommend trying out different bank accounts and see which one will push through without asking for a upfront payment. And make sure that you are on the etsy.com site
Hi @brandontimothy Love your videos! Very informative. I live in Canada. Is it okay to list "United States" as the "Shop country" if I'm mostly targeting US customers or does this go against Etsy policies in any way? Thanks.
I'm from Canada too. It's totally fine to just list 'Canada' as your shop country, even if you mostly sell to the US. I do the same, and it works fine. Etsy's algorithm primarily focuses on keywords and shopper habits, so the shop country designation isn't as crucial. As long as your listings accurately represent your products and you provide great service, you should be good to go. :)
@@brandontimothy Thanks for the reply. This makes sense. My only concern would be if listing “Canada” as my shop country, when US shoppers filter to “Shop by Country” wouldn’t that exclude my store in search results? Last question regarding seller account setup, I’m a sole proprietor, so the Canadian government uses my legal name as the company name, then operating as “Company Name” on business registration forms. When opening an Etsy account, I’m assuming they require gov. ID to verify sellers. My IDs all reflect my married surname (now hyphenated), would this be an issue? I’ve heard that your name on business registration has to match up exactly with personal IDs. This is the main reason I haven’t opened up a shop yet.
If those concerns are weighing on you, you can consider changing your location to the US. From my experience, it doesn't have much impact when selling digital products on Etsy. Just something to keep in mind. Regarding your seller account setup, Etsy typically requires a government ID for verification. If your IDs reflect your married surname, while your business registration uses your legal name, there might be some discrepancy. It's best to contact Etsy's support team here: help.etsy.com/hc/en-us/requests/new?segment=selling#issue_sell_manage_listings-callback
Hi there! I'm from Pakistan and i'm using my friend address, i want to know is it necessary to add credit card that belong to US bank or we can add any credit card detail that belong to any Pakistan bank?
Yes! Love the idea where you follow setting up a shop from the beginning. I never thought of starting a shop using USD…Is it possible to change it after you have already started your shop? I have been finding a lot of my buyers have been American even though I am a Canadian shop too.
Thanks for the tutorial on how to create an account on etsy I would like if you could create an account on clothing that's what I want to do on etsy so I'm looking for the fundamentals to use to create my own account thanks you

Thank you so much for doing this! I would love to see how you create digital products! I'm working on opening a sticker shop right now using your link. I've been putting it off for a year because I've been intimidated lolol. But you inspired me! I'll so be following this series if you continue it!
@@brandontimothy Oh my gosh, thank you! Your videos are so amazing, and I really appreciate them! They came around the perfect time for me haha 😄 Edit: No pressure to make vids or anything though!
I thought long and hard about a great name for my shop and made a new Gmail account, only to find when I got into Etsy and started registering that the name was taken. Then, when I found a name that wasn't taken, I couldn't get to the next step. I've done this 2x already with no success. It has to be easier.......

I contacted Etsy support and got the automated email saying the review would take 7 days. After 7 days, I replied to the email asking for an update and didn’t even get an auto reply. I contacted support via chat and the person I spoke with there stated that he would need to “transfer my concern to people with more tools” and that I should wait for them to contact me. I got so frustrated and had to pay gigwhiz from the RUclips ad to get memy shop back. I need this job.🥺
I have been thinking about setting up some kind of online shop to sell digital art work. I'm sure I have more than enough in terms of art skills to make sales, but I'm not 100% sure about the business/selling knowledge part. I have looked at some of the art others are selling and was wondering how these things are sold. So many of them seem so low-effort, like they did it in just 5 minutes. Do people really buy these swirly lines and colored shapes? Is it really that easy for people with, what I would say is, let's go with "subpar" work (just to be nice)? XD

Do etsy only accept credit card? Can i use debit?
Looks like your bank couldn't verify this card - try again or add a different card. this occurs on my end
