    Honestly can't choose a favourite. All seem so important. The product photography definitely was worth highlighting. When I think about how quickly I myself will flip through products, having your work properly presented could be the difference between making a sale and gaining a new customer or not.

    Tip 4 - "Avoid OOAK Products - This was an awakening. I pride myself on selling one-of-a-kind items. I'm not sure how to spin this. My tag is "you are one-of-a-kind. so wear you!"

    and you website is beautifuuuuul! As I was saying in a previous comments to Llianne, it is still 100% possible to run aa very successful business based on OOAK, it is just harder to scale and more time consuming. In your case you could offer different level of customisation. Full custom or a collection where the only customisable element is the picture? Just an idea!

    So many good points, Deb. It's challenging to get across the designer vs. crafter aspect of handmade items such as mine. I agree that one-of-a-kind items are harder to sell. Reaching customers within my niche is an important realization. I have adjusted & raised some of my prices and trying to improve my photography. Baby steps, but getting there. Thanks for your time and tips.

    My absolute pleasure and thank YOU for watching. Designer VS crafter is probably the least talk about topic but the MOST impactful when it comes to marketing and revenue. So much easier to sell at a higher price point when the perceived value of the brand/shop is elevated. Congratulations for doing the work, baby steps are still steps!

    I sell my knitted and crochet wear and what i have found helpful is timing yourself while making a piece. Whether it be a scarf, hat, baby booties, etc. See what you can crank out the fastest and focus on that. In my case, I knit headbands the fastest and are in my case the cheapest to make.

I watched your Etsy videos before opening my shop. You're more helpful to me than you think.

    I can see where you are coming from but I think you may be confusing the point of her advice. This video is almost exclusively about the business side, not the artistic side. It's not "how to be a better artist", it's helping you with how to sell online. Studying trends can help you tailor which of the products you already specialize in to prioritize or highlight so you can be the most profitable at any particular time. It can also help you pick pieces to add to your collection/inventory. Making a **living** as an artist needs to be a balance of both authenticity _and_ business acumen. You can't decide to depend exclusively on a capitalist system to pay your bills without utilizing some capitalism. She talks about how to use some of those tools to your advantage so you can have more success in sales, not your artistic expression. That's a completely different animal though they don't need to be mutually exclusive. You can absolutely do both but don't confuse the original point of selling your art: to sell your art.
