You've likely heard lots of different conflicting opinions on if it's a good or bad idea to start selling on Etsy lately. There is SO much information and differing thoughts on the subject swirling around involving shop suspensions, rumored hidden fees, and more. Well in today's video, I'm addressing these concerns head on to clear things up and hopefully give some direction and helpful info on what's actually going on with Etsy. Whether you want to sell Etsy print on demand, Etsy digital products, handmade, or vintage, this video will apply for you. These Etsy myths and misconceptions can make things really confusing, especially for those just starting out ready to sell on Etsy. You've likely heard of an Etsy shop suspension or multiple sellers claiming that their Etsy account was suspended. I'm hoping I can clear the air a bit in this sort of "Etsy shop for beginners" heart to heart talk. We'll touch on fees, Etsy SEO, Etsy ads, policies for Etsy sellers whether you're an Etsy POD shop, digital products shop, or other. If you've been wondering,, "Is Etsy worth it?"- I hope to point you in the right direction here, friend.
