Thank you Cassiy for all the great information! You have been so helpful and literally getting me fired up about my shop!! Started posting my first few listing on 3/7 and today on 3/19 at 90 listings I got my first organic sale!! So pumped! Cant wait to binge watch more videos! 😁

This is the video I needed today confirming I'm on the right track! Because of your channel, I'm at 700 sales since last July! Just cranked my ads up and man, things got real fast! But like you said- it MUST be optimized. I truly felt I wouldn't have been ready for the rush if I hadn't been at it for so long. Thanks again- excited to follow his channel also!

Cassiy you have been one of the content creators out there to actually motivate me enough to start and i gotta say once you talked about the phase called The Dip and im not even 2 weeks in to my shop but i feel lol😂, i dunno if im being way to hard on myself for expecting to see sales with about 5 listings and that short period of time, but here's whats really hurting rhe most about the whole process it takes me about 2 hours total to make 1 single listing and i know thats horrible but i just cant for the life of me make it any faster without sacrificing seo research design quality and the mock ups! Could you do a video about how simplify and organize your listing uploading process i think many of us could use a roadmap when it comes to how to do it and how to make it easier and less time consuming for us Plss thank you so much for all you content❤

how'd it go? did you start making sales

We’ve focus our shop on organic and recyclable products and it’s not a huge market or niche because it tends to cost more through pod and usually gets less profit margin… but we love our message, so we’re pressing on.. I’m a mom of four and don’t have the 40 hours to put in, but keep posting listings that are well detailed and mindful with tags and such… but I feel like something’s missing, we’re getting views and shop visits but no sales yet, and I don’t have family to start us off with purchasing a few items, so I feel like customers are afraid to invest in a store that has 0 sales… it’s hard to start! 😅 but I have faith!

You’re a great interviewer, you-tuber and Etsy seller. Thanks for continuing your share all this valuable info. I’ve been watching from the beginning and it’s helped me grow my business. It still does. I sometimes see new sellers saying it’s impossible, over saturated, and that you-tubers don’t actually share their secrets to success but I wholeheartedly disagree. I just think they’re not really putting in the effort and persistence needed to eventually get there. It’s easy but it’s also not easy in some ways. Giving up too fast is a huge mistake. It’s awesome he was able to do this so quickly and it might not be the norm for most people but the persistence gets you more experience, knowledge and exposure. My first designs were horrible 🙈. Some still aren’t great when I’m uninspired but my designs and SEO improved SO MUCH over the last two years and from the start, each month has been nothing but better than the last. Slow growth is still growth and not a sign that it’s not worth your efforts. 😅

Hi cassiy! Always love your content! I have one question tho, I am going to open a 2nd etsy shop, but I see it says you need to write your other shop name for each one which is something I do not want to do due to competition. I see your mock up store does not state other shop name, do you think it would result in closing my shop down? I am really scared to open second shop afraid if it effects my main shop

Cassidy excellent interview my question refers after you finish digital marketing and canva how do I sell on etsy

Cassiy, I know you mentioned this in this video or another one (I binged a bunch today!) but do you separate all of your variants out into different listings? Or keep them as one?

Cassiy your content is so valuable. I’ve spent 150+ hours already and only have 11 listings to show for it. But it takes so much time to learn the tools to get this stuff done! I will be a future student, and his advice on mentoring program really resonated with me. I’m curious,at what point in the journey do you feel this mentoring is “worth it”? I feel like I need to learn more before it makes sense (everbee, printify platform, frabrica, canva,etc.) I’m working up to 10 hours a day. Exhausted but motivated!

Hi, if i have group listing with Printify (no personalization) and where i put the SKUs. Does etsy/printify takes care of tracking notifications? Or did i have to do it manually

Cassiy question please. I have really researched my SEO and made simple designs on etsy, however I am not getting the views or being seen. What do you recommend? I just tried a daily budget for my whole store. Also should I delete my etsy store and start a new one if it was not active for several years? Look forward to hearing back thanks

Hi Cassiy love how he mentioned he first started a digital shop and switched to POD. Because I feel like I also want to make that switch because honestly with digital it really is a volume game and the margins are so low and I feel like with all the file types and constantly uploading I may aswell just have been better with starting a POD shop. I would love your input to this but I started my store in September 2023, currently nearly 600 sales but I so just want to make the switch to POD and focus on that more as I feel like it has so much more potential and I will be able to meet my revenue goals much faster. So I have started a POD shop on the side and want to focus on that more, do you think I should go all in on the POD store. I already have a strong idea on my product mix and brand and now how to do all the research, listing and mockups. Would love your advice! Ps I’m not even profitable on my digital store yet (sell png designs)!

Inspiring story! I'm just getting started and want to know should i go with big suppliers or trying smaller companies with more unique products and competitive pricing. I currently found this supplier from Vietnam. They have such diverse catalog but I'm still very hesitant to switch. Not sure they are reliable and trustworthy

Cassiy what is your mentor group?

Curious as to how sellers are handling products availability changing. I use Printify and noticed that certain colors and sizes are no longer available for the 3501 long sleeves. I know I am not the only one who has a difficult time fulfilling orders due to this issue and then also items being discontinued and having to replace a product which means redoing all of your mockups and reuploading everything for the replacement on both Printify and Etsy. It's almost impossible to focus on growth with these issues.

@@Humming.nature You can do this! If you set a "budget" (this is just a ceiling), Etsy might actually just spend 5$ a day if very few people click the ad. But the upside is that once it sells, you can add fuel to the fire and make the listing really fly. I was very hesitant in the beginning coming from Facebook Ads as they spend the budget you set. However, I've had my Etsy ads set to $1000 a day for almost a year now I think and it doesn't spend anywhere near that unless we're in Q4. But in order for the ads to work we gotta have a proven design together with a great listing offer. And the biggest caveat to the ads is that it should only have SEO that's very targeted to the thing we're selling, if it's kind of off then people might click it and the ad cost will go up. If it's a flamingo shirt, we can't have bird shirt in the SEO, just flamingo and so forth. Hopefully this helps! :)

I'd say that you would need to diagnose the issue here. It could be the images, it could be the price, it could be the offer in and of itself, it could be too low reviews on a store etc. There's so many things, but if you are getting visits, then you can know that the mockup and the design is most likely not the issue here. If they enter your listing and don't purchase, then it's something on a listing level that's the issue. Hope that helps!

What about copyrighting our ideas while using their combined elements and fonts to make our unique artwork or logos for sale, unless it is for or personal not-for-sale business logo(s)? Is there a company that we can use their work 100% free without restriction, etc., as copy and sell?

Not sure if it's a question for me but I'll try to help out! :) I don't think I understand the question fully, however when you have created a design you own the copyright to it. If you combine an elements that you have a commercial license to sell and then you add other elements like text to that design then you technically have the copyright to that specific design. I don't think you can trademark logos using a logo created in Canva per their license. But from what I know, you can sell designs made in Canva that you hold the copyright to as long as you also hold licenses for all elements used in the design. Last question is quite a tricky one, Cassiy has a big library of videos and all of those can definitely help with getting a store like that taking off. Hopefully that helped! :)

you know how some people can upload a ton of products super fast? Like, I’ve been struggling to upload even one, and it’s been 4 months and I’ve only done a hundred.

Myself what I like to do and Andreas can maybe comment on his thoughts as well, but I like to make 3-8 designs for every niche that I find. So I sit and make all of the designs at once, then I list them all at once. Since they are the same niche but just different designs, the SEO if basically the same for all except some slight changes if I made some group shirts or personalized for example. Then the listing process because quite quick eventually when you get into a rhythm. If you missed it, this is the video where I go over my listing process with Printify to make it as quick and easy as possible

@wtfamievendoing

3 ай бұрын

Hopefully this can help! I uploaded a bunch of designs, thousands of them and none of them worked. However, if you make sure to design based solely on research and all you do is fully custom designs that just say something like: "Your Words Here", then you are not constrained by any niche or so. This way you can ramp up your designs, test out whichever design works with a higher likelihood of selling as fully custom designs have higher conversion rates AND you're not constrained by any niche. Once you have a design that's selling, you'll also notice that you get a lot of the same requests for the same wording in the custom design. You can then just add those to Etsy as you own the copyright to all designs you make. At this stage you also have a great design that you can add into in demand niches on Etsy overall. I hope that helped but that's my take on how to do it :)

Yep sorry for the confusion on the currency since he doesn't live in the US! But like he said, if you google the translation then you'll see the numbers we're talking about. Hope you enjoyed the interview!

@@wtfamievendoingplease please make a video how different currency other than USD can work on etsy. Its very confusing. Do they charge for turning your shop to USD instead or is it better to just stay with own currency.

@@clarzr8719 I'm going to make a pricing video actually, I'll make sure to include this in it. But in short, all prices are displayed in the currency depending on where the customer is located. I've always kept the currency in my shop to SEK (which is my Swedish currency) however, I don't know this for sure, but there is a possibility that you might end up with an extra conversion fee if you set your store currency to USD if you live abroad. Every time they pay out they will have to convert it to the currency in your bank and that will get very costly as time goes on, I haven't experienced this conversion fee for myself but what I can say is that I use my native currency in my shop and it works great.

How do I reach you😊

@cassiy_jmentor she's good at what she does

I have watched all kinds of videos on this topic and I still don’t understand it. Maybe I’m just that stupid.

No you're definitely not stupid. It takes a while to get this going and some concepts can be hard to grasp. We've all been there and felt that too

That was a good interview but it's hard to understand him.

Sorry, I'm not that versed in talking to a camera yet lol. But I've started doing subtitles on my own videos to help with that lol!

He says “we” he has a partner that helps him?

Sorry for any confusion, I'm the one that has grown my own Etsy shop. I don't have a partner that's helped me with my Etsy shop.

He is from Sweden so that is the amount in SEK, if you convert it to USD, you'll get the $580K USD that we're talking about! Sorry for the confusion

I am not at this time but thank you for reaching out!

He says he's a musician and he also is doing extremely well on Etsy. That success should free up time for his to what??? Be a musician. But instead he want to start a KZread to be an Etsy guru? Hmmmmm. Interesting. I need to see evidence of all the success he is claiming to believe it.

Being a talking head here on KZread is a place where I definitely feel I can help a lot of people and in the same time also diversifying my income and opportunities. I thought long and hard about if I wanna enter the KZread space since I already have Etsy but I came to the conclusion that since I just talk about stuff that I already know, it doesn't take too much time away from me and I can actually do both. I can grow my artist project the way I want to without sacrificing the artistic part and help people through KZread at the same time. Trying to be as transparent as possible!

I hate the word niche

lol it is an odd word and I say it a lot in my videos 😂 so sorry in advance!

Omg this is so me right now, I am at a point where I have to succeed no matter what, dear Cassiy how do I contact you?

Hello Cassiy. I came across your KZread channel and finding it very inspiring. I just need more confidence in doing POD business. I am nearing my retirement and wanting to get ready in 4 years (more time). I am not tech savvy and still loving the old school of shopping but wanting too change my mindset about online business. I learned some tricks🥳 using canva following your step by step tutorial. It works and told myself...OMG I can't believe I did it because of you! 😃

Thank you both for the video. And thank you Cassiy for all you do, I just started a POD Etsy shop and your videos have been very helpful. Please I have 2 questions. @cassiyjohnson I have other handcrafted items that I can make, would you suggest I include that with the POD shop or just have the general POD shop like I'm currently working on? @wtfamievendoing please how do you handle shipping to other parts of the world since you mentioned that you're in Sweden, I'm in the UK. Thanks again for your help 🔥🔥🔥

I don't focus on any other markets than the US as there's just tons more hassles for little to no reward in other markets than the US. I'd highly advise to stick to the US as of now in 2024
