As a very discouraged Etsy shop owner, I have a dumb question (and I'm so sorry). I keep hearing people mention that they use TikTok for their Etsy business. That's great, but in what capacity? Do you also have a TikTok shop set up, or just a regular account, and you post videos with your products? If you have a TikTok shop, is it named the same as your Etsy shop? I'm relatively new to marketing stuff. For some reason, TikTok is so intimidating to me. Thank you for any information!! :)

Hi everyone - I want to create my own website for my digital products primarily PNG files but I’m not sure where to begin, how to market etc I would love any tips and help with this if you guys have ventured into your own websites

If you’ve ever wondered why some Etsy shops seem to blow up overnight while others stall out… it’s not luck. It’s strategy. That’s exactly why I put together a quick free quiz: What’s Your Etsy Seller Sales Score? In just a couple of minutes, you’ll get: ✅ A personalized score showing how aligned your shop is for sales ✅ Clear insights into where you’re strong (and what’s holding you back) ✅ Actionable tips you can use right now to boost your growth It’s fun, fast, and might just explain why your sales are stuck—or how to scale faster. 👉 Take the quiz now P.S. Your score might sting a little (in a good way). But it’ll give you the exact clarity you need to finally get your Etsy sales moving in the right direction.

Hello everyone, I hope you're having a wonderful Tuesday! Given what's happening to Kittl, I already got a MyDesigns Pro account and it's fine, but I also started doing a bit of investigative work on AI image generators that work for free and that hopefully don't share the images with other users. Below are a few I found: -- Gemini from Google - not great but sometimes comes up with surprising results -- Stablediffusionweb.com - pretty good, but you have to be super clear and concise as prompts must be under 500 characters. You get 10 credits per day, so you can generate 10 images. - Edit - there is a small watermark in the bottom right corner of every image with the URL of the website, so you'll have to crop the image or erase the watermark. -- huggingface.co/Jovie/MidJourney - this is a model based on Flux Dev but that generates images similar to what MidJourney would; it takes quite a long time to generate images, though, sometimes up to 10 mins -- huggingface.co/aleksa-codes/flux-ghibsky-illustration - technically it's for generating images in the style of Ghibsky (think Howl's Moving Castle, My Neighbor Totoro, typical Japanese style anime illustrations but with a slight industrial air) but I've used it for all sorts and it works just fine -- https://huggingface.co/spaces/black-forest-labs/FLUX.1-schnell - exactly what it says, it's the Flux 1 schnell model. Please note that for the HuggingFace models you will have to create a free account - the only model that works without one us this last Schnell one. Of course, you will have to upscale these images in something afterwards, but I think they come in handy if you run out of credits 😄. And finally, I don't know if I am allowed to share this here, but there's a cool website called promptlibrary.org with prompts for MidJourney, which you can ofc adapt for any AI image generator you use.

99% of Etsy sellers are making the same mistakes that keep them stuck at $100/month (or worse… quitting altogether). In my newest YouTube video, I’m breaking down exactly what those mistakes are and what to do instead — including: 💡 Why “unsaturated niches” are a total myth 🎨 The real reason your designs aren’t selling (hint: it’s not your skill) 📈 How to go from hobby-level effort to business-level results ⚡ Why volume and momentum beat perfection every time These are the things that finally helped me go from barely scraping by… to building a 7-figure Etsy digital shop — and they’ll do the same for you if you actually apply them. If you’ve been stuck wondering why your Etsy shop isn’t growing, this video will tell you exactly what to fix first. Watch it here:) https://www.youtube.com/@digitalbailey/videos
