Product Description

In a world where most products are manufactured by machines, Etsy offers an online platform for makers of handmade products and crafts to market and sell their goods to a vast network of buyers who demand unique, genuine products. To date, the site has attracted over 400,000 sellers who collectively have sold over 30 million items, generating more than $180.6 million in revenue. The only resource of its kind, How to Make Money Using Etsy––written by Tim Adam who has successfully been selling his products all over the world through his Etsy shop since 2007––guides readers step–by–step through the many stages of selling online. How–to topics include:
  • Establish your Etsy shop
  • Effectively photograph your products
  • Post your products to optimize visibility and increase sales
  • Brand your business
  • Use social media like blogs, Twitter, and Facebook to connect with buyers and grow your business

From the Inside Flap

Back in the olden days—youknow, circa 2004 or so—artists and craftspeople had to drag their portfolio and wares to galleries and craft shows, and popularity in the local market didn′t mean an end to your day job. But thanks to Etsy, a website that connects makers of handmade products and crafts with buyers, those same artisans can now market and sell their goods to a worldwide network of motivated shoppers.

Etsy.com is the newest tool of the arts and crafts trade, and How to Make Money Using Etsy is your instruction manual. To date, the site has attracted over 400,000 sellers who collectively have sold over30 million items, generating more than $180.6 million in revenue.

Whether an Etsy newbie or a veteran seller, you′ll get a step–by–step guide to running a successful Etsy shop. Successful Etsian Tim Adam leads you through the Etsy community, including the forum, where fellow Etsians offer support and critiques vital to defining your brand; the Etsy Storque blog; and the Etsy Teams, like–minded sellers who help promote each other′s work.

Mastering your craft is only step one in developing a successful Etsy brand. You′ll learn how to:

  • Properly set up your Etsy shop and start listing your handmade goods
  • Develop a good keyword and search engine optimization strategy
  • Create compelling blog content to drive traffic to your Etsy shop
  • Promote your brand through Facebook and Twitter

In a world where nearly everything has been made by machine, the demand for handcrafted goods is growing. You know how to make the products—now master the age–old craft of making money.

Format:Paperback
useful little book for Etsy beginners; more experienced sellers may find it less helpful. A thorough review of Etsy selling.

In my opinion, this book is superior to other Etsy how-to books out there. Really useful tips and practical ways forward. Other reviewers are sceptical as to how useful this might be for an expert and perhaps they are right, but I am a beginner on etsy and am finding this very helpful.

Excellent 14 July 2011
Format:Paperback
I got this book as I am a newish seller on etsy (soeweyarns) and I needed some help. Yes Etsy has a handbook but I can't take it down the beach with me. It's been written in plain English, very clear with lots of screen shots so you know what you should see. I have learnt so much and I'm only a 1/4 of the way through the book. A must have for any etsy seller.
