If you’ve ever thought “Etsy’s too saturated,” let me stop you right there—with caffeine. I have way too much coffee in my house—grocery store coffee, fancy subscription coffee, cold brew, spiked coffee (please don’t judge 😅)… yet every week, I still buy more. And guess what? New coffee brands pop up daily. Because even in a “saturated” market, there’s always room for something different. Same goes for Etsy. Whether you sell clipart, tumbler wraps, or digital planners—people aren’t searching for more of the same old designs. They’re looking for something that feels like it was made just for them. 💡Here’s the thing → buyers get bored fast. That’s your opportunity. Find trends early 🔍, mix niches (“funny cat mom coffee wrap”), and infuse your personality with current design aesthetics into every design you create. That’s how you stand out—even in a market that looks “crowded.” So next time you start spiraling about saturation… remember: Starbucks still sells coffee. And, successfully, so do THOUSANDS of other coffee shops. ☕✨ 🤔Which one?!? Prompt: A cozy ghost surrounded by embroidered coffee cups, beans, and steam swirls, turned into a hyper-realistic faux yarn embroidered design on a pure white background. The ghost is crafted from fine white thread with soft dimensional texture and black stitched eyes. Surrounding it are mocha brown embroidered cups, beige steam curls, and tiny stitched sparkles in gold. The entire design appears hand-stitched with thread direction and realistic shadows. Centered composition, warm neutral tones, white background. Get more FREE prompts like these here: https://bailey.digitally-purposed.com/newsletter

Most Etsy sellers quit after about 45 days. They list a few designs, get 14 visits, 0 sales, and start saying things like: “I got in too late.” “It’s all saturated.” “Etsy just favors big shops.” But that’s not why it’s hard. The real reason? Their expectations are completely out of control. So let’s fix that 👇 1. The $10K/month mindset vs. the $0 mindset Everyone wants instant traction. But every shop you see making $10K+? They assumed it would take YEARS. If you treat your Etsy shop like a business from day one — not a hobby, not a “maybe this will work” — you’ll start acting like a top seller before the badge shows up. 2. You’re not “good” yet (and that’s okay) When my first design went viral, I honestly thought I was a genius. My next 10 tanked. 😏 That’s when I learned: it’s not about one lucky product — it’s about testing, learning, and stacking products. Even with $1M+ in digital sales, I still have listings that flop. The difference? I don’t make it mean anything. I just learn and move on. 3. Stop trying to sell to everyone “Funny tumbler wraps”, "ADHD planners", "Dog wall art", "Kid's coloring pages" If you are trying to make and sell everything, you will never get good at anything which will result in no sales and complete burnout. The more specific your audience, the more your designs convert. 4. Stop copying — start remixing You don’t win on Etsy by cloning the top shops. You win by taking what’s trending… and putting your weird, wonderful spin on it. Because AI doesn’t replace creativity — it multiplies it. Etsy’s easy. Once you stop making it so hard. Keep designing, keep experimenting, and stop expecting your first 10 listings to retire you, though that would be really nice. 😆 You’re just one good prompt away from your next bestseller. — Bailey P.S.
