So, you’ve opened your Etsy store. You have put in the hard work. You’ve agonized over making sure your product is perfect. You’ve spent more time than you care to admit working out the perfect pricing that will make purchasing your item a no brainer for people.
You added a couple of listings to your Etsy store and now you’re sitting back, waiting for the sales to come in…..
Because they will come right?
Well, maybe. More than likely you’ve waited a month or so and not much is happening. You’ve had some views and some people have favorited your item, heck, you might have even made a sale or two.
But selling on Etsy is not quite what you imagined and you’re wondering if there is any point to all of the time and effort you put into getting the store up and running.

Thanks for the great advice as usual!
Thank you Kat, I am learning a lot, and it is true, sometimes I worked hard but no sales, now I will be aware with your advice, by the way I don’t like the promoted listings, expensive clicks and no sales.
But I realize one important thing in this business, you improve your knowledge every day that you are in front of your shop page, making changes, writing new tag words, this is one of the thing for me.
Have a nice day and I will follow you on the 29th for all your suggestions and tips.
Thanks,
Pilar
Thank you Pilar!
I have to say I agree with you about the Promoted Listings, I have been using them for six months or so and can’t say they have done me much good!!
I’m at a loss on the international shipping. Can you give me some info on how that works?? I ship flat rate mail.
