😊 Alek, can you try a 30 or 60 day challenge, opening a new Etsy shop without running ads and record your real progress, selecting and designing products, so everyone can see if opening an Etsy shop in 2024 still works or not.

Your videos are always interesting Alek. However, I have just closed my shop on Etsy, it's just a waste of time, the site is massively over saturated with everything from T-Shirts, Mugs to digital products and the only way to make any money is to spend a fortune in advertising and even that's no guarantee. I work 9 hours a day and I am far too tired to spend time creating new designs for either T-shirts, Mugs, etc. But I do enjoy your videos.

Hi Alek, Great video. Just wondering why you rank Gelato so low typically when until 2 monthd ago they were by far the cheapest supplier for mugs and even now are typically cheaper then printify for shirts, especially internationally.

thanks

That shop sells everything underpriced. Les of the cost of a shirt on Printify.

Etsy in 2024. 1. Open account. 2. Add 1000 products. 3. Pay 300$ in fee. 4. Account suspended. 5. Appeal denied with no reason. 6. Open a Shopify or Woo store.

Don't forget about the $15 fee that they are not refunding. It's not a lot but if they close a million + shops it adds up.

Have you used the new Alura attributes for automated tags? Does it work or is coming up with your own tags still the better option?

Hi alek, The other day I saw this method of boosting your Etsy sales it was to have a hundred products and post one everyday this method is from Etsy consultants KZread channel would you recommend doing this I’ve seen people who have had no sales for a long period of time then when they started using the method they said they started to get sales what do you think

It's part of their basic process. You have to file an appeal and it will get reinstated within a couple of days, unless there is some major issue. It's stupid since they are now charging $15 to open a store.

@@_g4m3r_ Yeah apparently this is a new thing Etsy rolled out a couple months ago. Luckily I had opened a shop before this came into effect but I guess it's a deterrent for people to post low quality listings. No idea why they restrict the account from the beginning though. This is a bot issue that needs to be fixed by Etsy. The way I see it is that the decision makers at Etsy must be thinking that if even 2 out 10 people don't bother appealing the ban after the store is created, they've pocketed $30 in pure profit.

You cannot open a shop from Bangladesh. You have to wait for Etsy to start allowing Bangladesh as an option, and seeing as how they stopped Indians from onboarding to Etsy now, it's highly unlikely they will bring it to Bangladesh anytime soon.

I suspect one needs much room on their credit cards when Printify starts charging. That's why this business model is not suitable for everyone.

@readytrivedi

Күн бұрын

You do need some room in your credit card. Ideally, you should have about $1000 credit to start with, because Etsy will pay you after 1 week and they may even hold back some amount as "payment reserve"
