Making 3000 Sales (or More) on Etsy

What does it take to make 3000 sales (or more) on Etsy?

My mind works in the "Why?" zone.

One question keeps coming up here in Rena's website is "why isn't my jewelry selling?"

Let us forget that there are a bazillion sites selling jewelry and forget that the economy is in a twitter.

In my "why" zone I set out to investigate and research to see if there were some reasonable answers to this continuing question.

I hope you readers will comment on this and offer your thoughts too. Believe me, I don't have all the answers!

First I googled "Successful jewelry stores on Etsy" and came up with some helpful and basic information from several that all said much the same.

This has been said before but we all need reminding.

In summary I found:

The Basics of Successful
Jewelry Stores on Etsy

1. Make your photos near perfect.

2. Mingle with others who are in the same area of business and with positive ideas and want to share their successes, learn something new about selling and marketing everyday (everyday if you are serious about your work). Stay motivated and energized.

3. Have a range of prices to offer to a range of buyers.

4. Post feedback about your products on your store; it gives credibility.

5. Continually open your mind to tips and ideas that you may not be using. The sellers I looked at were part of an Etsy Team really working for success with each other.

6. Set goals for sales, first 50 the first year, then 100 then 400.

7. Do not undercut others in hope of making a sale.

The Super-Successful Etsy Stores

Then I dug into the successful Etsy stores which equate to 3000 sales or more, ya I know, in my dreams, but it is in black and white.

These stores were not started at the beginning of time - the stores were listed within the last couple of years and many of the sales were what I consider current within the last 3 to 6 months.

Ok, here is what I found:

What Etsy Stores
with 3000+ Sales Do

1. Near perfect pictures, for sure.

2. Great communications (with emphasis) to potential buyers:

Getting personal.

Superior explanations and descriptions, not flowery, best on the web.

Not "one of a kind"; instead, "limited" is being used.

Offering variations of the same thing, size, color, different metals. These successful sellers were asking what their buyers really wanted, frankly I was very impressed.

Encouraging potential buyers to email for their specifics.

The sellers acknowledged time frames for production and shipping as well as anything else a buyer might want.

The sellers really catered to the potential buyer.

3. Price ranges from $10.00 to $95.00 within each store.

4. Simple jewelry designs, quality workmanship, inexpensive but quality materials, eye catching website and store designs. (What I mean by inexpensive materials would be 3" of sterling and 2 quality 6mm or 7mm pearls for $20; or up to seven 3.5mm to 4mm true gemstones and gold-filled metal for $35 to $40.)

5. Surprisingly to me there wasn't much variety in jewelry design in these stores; it was just a few good designs that sold very well, over and over.

In conclusion:

I don't have an Etsy shop. I've thought about it but preferred my own site, and after doing this research it might not be a bad idea.

I truly believe that if we want sales we need to really dig in and do the research to find out what works.

Do your homework before you jump in, get as much information as you can get, participate and get to know others in your chosen niche, again, if you are serious.

I learned a long time ago:

People spend money on what is important to them.
It has nothing to do with what they can afford.
That is one reason credit card balances are in the billions.

We simply have to stand out to get those people to spend their dollars with us.

So, don't give up - success is in your future if it isn't there yet!

Just work harder, becoming excellent in all that you do; it is a never-ending thing we should all do.

"When 'Why' becomes the 'What'" means get pro-active, or do what you have to do and then be sure you DO IT!

I've been successful in my life as well as fortunate in many ways and I'm not talking about money, but I've always worked smart and I've never ever given up. I have always strived to learn something new everyday and get better at what I do best.

Please share your comments!

My best to all \o/

Thank you Rita!

I really appreciate your sharing your great research.

Especially your insights into what the uber-successful 3000+ sellers do as far as their product lines and communications.

I noticed that they work toward perfecting the art of "finding out what their customers want to buy, and then providing it for them"!

As you mentioned, Rita, customer research is a huge factor in success.

An eye-opener, and lots of food for thought.

Thank you so much for posting this here!

Thank you Rita and Rena!
by: Paula

Wow, great information Rita! I do sell on Etsy as well as my website but not as much as I would like to. This is really good information especially regarding reaching out to your customers and making a personal connection. Very good, positive tips for all of us!!!

Selling on Etsy

I have found it helps to be very accurate and descriptive in tagging your items. Also, make sure to use all fourteen of your tagging spots.

Thank you
by: Willow

I would like to add that many of the most successful shops on etsy add new products regularly, carry more than 100 items in their shop and have a cohesive product line, in keeping with the branding of their business.

Thank you for posting this informative article!

Oh how i'd love some sales....
by: Miss Ladysmith

Hi there
Rena i read your website with enthusiasm every month - so many great tips, many of which i have made use of..
I was excited to read this - but it left me so confused - as i spent a long time researching before i began my etsy and solo website - according to the lists i am doing all the right things.. and yet i have hardly sold a thing this year.

I put it down to it being January, post christmas money issues - but then a week ago i started looking into some of the other sellers on etsy, the ones that are in the thousands that i had already found, and looked at all the pointers that i thought were important - very much what is stated above, and they were selling an average of 5-8 pieces a day, everyday, since boxing day!!

I have i think implemented all of the above - except for the forums, which i've found hard to break into - as i am in the UK, so time zone difference means i am often online at different times of the day, and by the time i have finished making, taking photographs, uploading them, writing descriptions - i need to just recover a bit - it takes so long, i love it, but the lack of sales is inevitably leaving me feeling a little flat.

I also read somewhere that a stock level less than 30 was considered to be very bad on etsy - and if you can get your stock to around at least 100 - then your sales will increase. So that is my current strategy - after todays uploads i'll be at 44 - so still a long way to go....

I just wish for a few sales to help me to believe that i am not wasting all my time, huge amounts of money and all my energy - although, i cant imagine doing anything else - i love creating a new piece everyday, working with the tools - and being surrounded by such beautiful bits n bobs...

but thank you for this website - a constant source of inspiration and a land of ideas.

Extremely Useful
by: Anonymous

Rita, this article is extremely useful to potential sellers who want to sell on Etsy and other sites too. It would be even more helpful if you could have given urls or usernames for the etsy sellers you thought were really good, so that we can see what 'near perfect' photos and 'best on the web' descriptions looked like.
Well done for producing this report :)

Thank you Rita for taking the time and making the effort to do this research. I have recently opened my Etsy shop and was wondering the same thing. You have saved me time and provided us all with some fabulous insight. Thank you.
I would also like to give a shout out to Rena for providing a wonderful website where we can all learn and share our experiences on a regular basis.
WELL DONE LADIES :)

Great Starting Point
by: Summer Raven

Thank you, you have pointed out some very great starting points to consider when selling on etsy. When I first started, my pictures were the best I could do, but not great. I spent the time to change them all out and did notice a lot more attention and sales to my site. I have tried the etsy street teams, but and I just cannot seem to find the time and/or motivation to keep up with it! With keeping full inventory, photos, descriptions, blogging etc... I just don't have the time for much extra. Also I am wondering if the people who are selling so much on etsy also do art shows, street fairs and other in-person sales. Because I do and when I sell in person I have to remove it from etsy without it giving me credit for a sale...so maybe these gals just put all their eggs in one basket!

Etsy Sales
by: Michelle Buettner

This was a very good article! Thanks for sharing all this info. I too have had my own website for some time and everyone kept telling me to 'sell on Etsy'. So, this fall I cancelled my shopping cart, kept my main web pages and set up shop on Etsy. I have only one sale so far, and my pics could really use some spucing up, but I believe that between this information you've shared and all the info that Rena gives out here on her website(s) and in her e-books with social networking, etc. that the sales will come!
Thanks again for a very helpful and informative article.

Thank you Rita for a great article (thank you Rena for a great newsletter!). And thank you to all the commentors who also provided great pearls (no pun intended) of wisdom!

I made a sale yesterday - my fourth in two years! But I will practice all the advice given on this article to grow my Etsy business!

Also - I will add that I agree that adding things regularly helps. I added the Google Analytics and I noticed that visits to my shop increase sharply on the days I add new items.

A Must For Jewelry Sellers
by: cottagecharms

Your Etsy shop could be set up beautifully with all the great info you gave but outside and online promotion is a must. You cannot count on buyers finding your site among the many jewelry sellers on a consistent basis. If you promote in person (wear your jewelry to work, jewelry parties etc.) more people will start to visit your site. It takes time and persistence. cottagecharms.etsy.com

Facebook fan page
by: Miss Ladysmith

Just a little addition - last month i set up a facebook fan page - i've got nearly 150 fans already - at least half of them i dont know, its been a great way to spread the word - and you can upload a great etsy tool - so your fan page is literally the same as your shop front page - each item has a direct link to your etsy shop - makes it very easy for people to look at your work.

Also, i have made pieces to friends who work with people that are my target audience etc,... another great way to promote - as i can only be in one place at a time - some of my business friends have been carrying my cards around also and that has generated a lot of interest.

But i cant recommend the facebook fan page enough!
Feel free to have look at mine...

not the nicest url - but i tend to tell folk to just search for miss ladysmith - however the beauty of it is that if you write a daily update you appear on peoples home page, and then their friends see it and click, and it seems to grow from there!

Great article...
by: Ann Nolen

Rita, Great article, thank you so much for sharing! I saw some important information that I have learned selling at shows, but didn't think to incorporate into my website or Etsy. Another artist shared with me recently that when she does a show, she puts her Etsy shop on "vacation mode" for the weekend so she doesn't have something sell that is out of stock. She says that people hurry back to look at her site after, and her customers appreciate she has thought of this.
Thanks VERY much for noticing the use of "Limited" instead of one of a kind. I make maybe 3-5 of each item I make, so that solves my issue on how to present that correctly...

Thanks!

Just planting seeds for you to harvest
by: Rita Juhlin

I just want to help a little, because it is not easy to sell on the web. If you sell any jewelry the first year you should be delighted. It can take a year just to get a fair place on a search engine.

Being the best you can be is really important. Trying to keep up with all the blogs, twitter, websites, etc. can be overwhelming so get one thing going well, first and then �grow� to the next. It�s no different than what Rena is doing, just look at how her sites have improved and they were very well done in the beginning! Doing one thing really good is so much better than doing many things poorly; that goes for your jewelry making skills too!

I�m pleased to see the comments and suggestions! I am curious why a seller should need a hundred different listings. (Seems like the host is raking it in on that.) Don�t forget that what I observed is many of the successful sellers had two or three items that sold really well, over and over and over again.

My best to all !!

was any research done regarding payment? Credit card, paypal, etc. I take paypay which is 99% of my sales but wonder if taking a credit card would increase sales.

Website...
by: Vicki

Hello
Im still in the process of putting together my jewellery website and have looked into Etsy, but not in great depth. I have to be honest, most feedback i have seen tends to be negative with the number of sales that designers are making from Etsy, however, once I have my own website up and running, I may look into this again and put those points you raised into practice - thank you.

One thing i will say, I completely agree with Miss Ladysmith, I have a friend who is a hairdresser and she is the perfect model for my jewellery, because she will wear it when shes working, her clients comment and then she sells me aswell as the jewellery to them, because she doesnt stop talking, but she has endless enthusiasm!! As well as that and family and friends, any other sales have come through actually wearing it when Im out and about shopping or whatever and it tends to be when Im looking in jewellery sections of big department stores, I can only put this down to being because people are already looking for jewellery and are therefore more receptive to what others are wearing around them.....

Also, thank you Rena and everyone else, I love this website, cos it lifts my spirits and inspires me when I feel stuck in a rut....I also think the enthusiasm and energy comes across when you are selling yourself/jewellery and people pick up on a nice positive vibe and act on it. I can only speak from experience, but when im not feeling very enthusiastic, I sell nothing - zero, but once i pick myself up its almost like its catching and then once you make one sale, you get more enthusiastic and feel proud of yourself and it seems to have a knock on effect.... Sorry Im just waffling now, its Friday afternoon and im bored at work in my day job lol...

Thank You Rita
by: Christina Miles

Thank you Rita for the time you spent to share this information with us. I definitely have learned something from you. I know I havent put enough time and effort into my Etsy store and this is exactly what I need to focus on. One thing I did learn to do is to not put all of my items up on Etsy at the same time. Spread it out over a week or two. When you upload your items, you see them instantly on that one page where you can view all of the newly added items. This way your items will be spread out and you will get more hits (hopefully)....

update - how to set up link to Facebook
by: Ann Nolen

Wanted to answer Sharleens comment. There is a link of Etsy (My Etsy page) that sets up the link to Facebook. I had to figure that out, but the directions were clear and I set it up in just a couple minutes.
Thanks again Rita. I went to my Etsy shop and did some "redecorating" including making a new banner to post. I think the more exposure I get, the word of mouth will just keep adding up. I recently sold something on Etsy, and the person would never have known of me otherwise.

Try a sales analysis for your own shop
by: Lisa W.

Great article to inspire discussion and start us thinking!

You are so right about the price range, I think. I did an analysis of my own Etsy sales. I made a chart of prices $50 apart, and made tick marks to indicate the prices of sold items. I see that although I have offerings from $15 - $250, my sales are very much concentrated in the $25 - $75 range. I also wondered how my sales correlated with the types of jewelry I offered in my Etsy store. I listed how many bracelets, rings, etc, I list in my store, then ticked off how many in each category were sold. It turned out I sold more neckwear than anything else,and sold jewelry in exact proportion to what I offered, except for bracelets. I sold bracelets more frequently than expected based on my offerings.

This analysis was kind of fun to do, and didn't take long. Based on this, I am designing more pendants and bracelets in the $35-$65 range, to help cater to what my customers seem to want.

I want to recommend this concept to all of you. Make a couple of sales charts and see what you can learn. What changes will you make based on what you find?

You can see more details on Try a Jewelry Sales Analysis for Your Website or Etsy Shop.

I love it !!!

Emphasis on photos
by: Sue Runyon/Sue Runyon Designs

Rita, thanks for this article. You are so right to stress the importance of great photos. It's the hardest part of selling jewelry on-line and the one that brings the most increase in sales. I have a long way to go, but every increase in the quality of my photos has brought more sales.

Thanks again,

Etsy Is labor intensive
by: Anonymous

I am currently selling my new jewelry line on Etsy and am finding it very labor intensive. The time it takes to produce 5 great photographs for each item and then write the listings seems to eat up much of my potential profit. All online selling requires great photos but etsy is so very competitive in this area in that the photos also need to be artsy to get attention. I have been open 9 days and have sold 2 items. Sound like a great start? Maybe, compared to the thousands of others who report no sales after YEARS! I listed 12 items and after 9 days I have, at most, 12 views. The average is 5 views. I re-listed two items after four or five days to get them back to the top and this brought me 2 more views for 40 cents. Yipee! Within minutes (or seconds) the items were on page 19 where they would never be noticed. There may be a handful of folks making it on etsy, but for most of us, it is pocket change at best. The site is set up to encourage sellers to relist items daily so that the cost of advertising will in most cases absorb any potential profit. Ebay is a better venue. When you participate in an auction, all of your items get to the top of the listing and remain there for a much longer time. I get more views with a few hours on ebay then I have gotten in 9 days on etsy. If you want quick sales that you can depend on for more than pocket cahnge, etsy is not the venue.

Maybe - Maybe Not
by: Rita Juhlin

Sorry to hear, Ms. Anonymous, that your 9 days gave you such a bad experience. I personally don�t look at other jeweler�s as competitors; not all jewelry is created alike or equal.

Different venues work for different people. I am unaware of your generalized figures stating �thousand of others who report no sales after years,� that seems like a stretch.
Millions of dollars are spent on Etsy and jewelry is a big part of that.

For me taking pictures and learning to take better pictures has saved me time over the years I�ve been making and selling jewelry, and I find it rather fun. I sure didn�t start my jewelry business with the idea of quick sales, a fast buck or quitting my day job, lol. Spending my time working with my jewelry gives me great pleasure and I look at it more as a labor of love; selling the jewelry is the bonus.

I hope your Ebay views turn into Ebay sales and thank you for your comment.

Photos
by: Amy S.

The quality of photos DO make a huge difference as I have noted just in the two years I've had a shop on Etsy.

I've found the 'competition' on eBay is just as big. The one thing I like about Etsy though is that your audience is looking for handcrafted items whereas on eBay your audience is much broader.

Best of luck to sellers in both areas, Thanks to Rita and all the comments for the great tips!

Etsy Tags
by: Smitherine

Using all 14 spots for your item tags on Etsy is super-important, as well. I never leave any of them blank, as they are each a gateway to your product.

Etsy or Website - Both Add Credibility to Your Business
by: Virginia Vivier - Esprit-Mystique.com

Here is a different point of view.

I concentrate on selling at Art Festivals. I had a nice business card, but no website listing. Folks would ask me why I didn't have a website? Many potential customers were rushed and didn't have much time to spend at my booth. Or, they wanted something custom made. They wanted to go home and leisurely view photos of everything I had ever made. But I had no website to send them to.

So I setup an Etsy Store and website (still a work in progress!) to add credibility to my business and pick up additional "after market" sales. Together, the cost of Etsy Store and website are a mere $12 per month, and a few hours of my time to keep them updated. Peanuts for advertising your artwork!

When I attend an Art Festival as a customer, and find an Artist who intrigues me, I always ask for their business card. It is especially helpful if they have a website that includes items different from their Art Festival inventory.

So, don't dispair if you haven't sold anything on Etsy. A website or Etsy Store adds crediblity to your business and helps spread the word!

Rita Juhlin, Thank You
by: Elizabeth

Not only are you an extraordinary person, you are clear in your presentation both verbally and artistically. You are so very, very talented and generous in sharing your experiences.

Few artists are that confident and generous to take such time for fellow artists and people who really appreciate your advice.

The list of links is extensive, which only proves that you are dedicated and quite possibly, a very happy person indeed!

Thank you, Rita

I am!
by: Rita Juhlin

Thank you and I am a happy person! With a deep faith, a generally good attitude, and a load of good and bad experiences I live and learn.

If I can help one person do a little better and try a little harder or open up a positive out look I am even happier!

Thanks for the "Village"
by: Constance Harris

Thank you Rena and Rita. It takes a creative village to "raise" confident and inspired artisans. Rita, as a new Etsy shop owner I really appreciate all of your research for this article. Setting up my Etsy shop was a goal I set for myself before my 50th birthday this year. You have to understand that I am not the most computer saavy person so this was a huge accomplishment for me. It is still a work in progress, but after a month I was thrilled to get my first sale. You would have thought I won the lottery the way I screamed. Although I'm 2999 sales away from my new 3000 sales goal I feel blessed by all the support, research, and words of encouragement that you have provided.

3000 things
by: Skyfire

Good information, worth remembering.

3000 sales? That sounds almost impossible, but yes I believe that people do it.

Question, though. In order to sell 3000 things, you have to make 3000 things. How many pieces of jewelry are people here making per day? Part time, full time?

So far, I've made 38. Yes, I know. That sounds pitiful. (Heck, it is pitiful.) I don't suppose that I can use the excuse that I've only been doing this for 2 1/2 months.

Thank you!

Thank you for taking the time to write this article. I found it to be in-line with everything else I've read about Etsy, although yours was definitely more helpful!

Thanks!
