Tiktok shop
Hello I have recently started my Etsy shop, and it has been slow as expected since I still have not added many listings. However, I am suprised not much discussion here has been surrounding Tiktok shop. Would this not have the potential to make 100x more money - considering that other people would have an incentive to sell your work?

Funny you mention looking at other platforms, I was looking at EBAY alongside ETSY
First listings
Hi, I published my first listings yesterday and today Etsy have recommended some title changes which are much shorter than the word count. Would you use their suggestion but still put some of your original phrases in? It’s saying don’t repeat things like Wall Art and Poster. Thank you

I saw some videos that ETSY are changing how they want listings to be done so ive taken there suggestions for a few listings and see how it goes.
4 months in…what I’ve learned
So it’s around about the 4 month mark since setting up my shop. He’s how it’s been going: Started in April. I have now made 96 sales and now sell between 1-5 posters a day. I have made a total of £1696 in revenue. I have around 200 posters listed and I run Etsy ads at $3 a day (for a select few listings). I am however considering increasing my ad budget but slightly scared I’ll have a drop in sales. Any advice on that front would be helpful, I’m half tempted to leave the ad budget as it is because it seems to be working pretty well so far. I earned my star seller badge exactly 3 months after my first sale, after having my account put into a payment reserve (profit prison). I have a review rate of about 9%, with 5 stars across the board. I will say it did take a little while to really pick up but I have roughly doubled my sales and revenue each month since I started. In the past 18 days since the beginning of August, I have made £700 in revenue, I reckon I’m on track to reach around £1,000 in revenue this month. Some things I’ve learned along the way - 1. You do get out what you put in. I am planning on adding more posters to my shop. My success has largely been due to one of my poster designs hitting it off. 2. 2. Make variations of the posters that sell. I have made about 20 variations of my most popular poster. The niche that I am in makes it quite easy to pump out almost infinite variations of the same poster. I’d say about 90% of my sales come from some variation of my most popular poster. 3. 3.i personally started taking commissions to do personalisations on certain posters. This does obviously require a certain skill level in art although this is mainly done through AI with my own personal touches added manually. This is also obviously more time consuming and isn’t suitable for everyone, but it generates a bit of extra income for me and is quite a popular choice, plus I can afford the time and effort it takes me. I would say to anyone starting out that it’s definitely possible to earn some decent money from doing this and I am very grateful that I stumbled across toms TikTok account and decided to take the plunge to learn how to get started. It came at a pretty good time in my life where I had to take a step back from my regular job (as a nurse) because I was burnt out. Art used to be my main hobby growing up but I fell out of love with it. It’s nice to get back in it and I can genuinely say I really enjoy my little poster business.

Problem with my order
Hi guys, im pretty new to the whole Etsy selling but i made my first sale last week! The customer however sent it to me and the text had been cut off at the bottom and the top. I've raised it as an issue through the printshrimp website however i've had another order since and i'm nervous to send it as it might be wrong again :( How long do the guys take to get back to you about issues? Will they resolve it for me?

I Made the same mistake in the beginning, I now resize all mine in Canva. Im only using 2 sizes at the moment so not as much work
Photo Printing and Pricing
Heya, good to find this group. Just wondering what the quality is like for photographs as it looks like it's focused on Canva/digital poster designs. I'm looking at sell photo prints and not sure how they would work enlarged to the A2/A3 size. Is there a typical price range you would suggest for photo prints based on the size? Looking forward to the framed options and starting to sell. Thanks!

Im a photographer and have ordered a few prints for myself and they have come through great in A3. I haven't gone to A2 size yet though.

@Jon Berg I tried all the papers, but it really depended on the photo to how it came out. Good Luck
