Good morning, I finally have a Stan store. I had someone create it for me. I’m starting out with breast cancer designs. What’s the best way to advertise your store?

Hello everyone. I was supposed to start adding items to my shop a while back. I haven’t done anything besides procrastinate. I want to upload the composition bundle to sale. Do I need to edit and make them my own first or can I sell as is until I get the hang of things?

I made my first sale on ETSY. This is just the beginning 🎊🍾😘

As Etsy continues to roll out new policies and shift its algorithm, it’s never been more important to create a strong, unique brand presence outside of just one platform. If you're serious about growing a long-term digital download business, here's what you need to prioritize: ✅ 1. Diversify Beyond Etsy You should never put all your eggs in one basket. Etsy is powerful, but it shouldn't be your only storefront. Create your own website using platforms like: - Stan Store – great for funnels and mobile-first sales - Payhip – ideal for beginners and digital product delivery - Shopify – excellent for brand scaling and customization - Wix – simple and drag-and-drop friendly This gives you control and stability no matter what changes Etsy makes. ✅ 2. Do Your Research for each listing you are adding Your success on Etsy isn’t just about having good products it’s about how you present them. Make sure you are: - Using SEO-optimized titles - (Copy Titles then tweak to avoid EXACT duplication) - Adding unique, niche-specific tags (When you copy the tags from the bestsellers and trending using Everbee.io Chrome Extension-check the tags and make sure they align with your listing and add in your own tags to avoid EXACT duplication) - Writing strong descriptions for each listing that speaks to your ideal buyer - (Use ChatGpt to craft unique descriptions for each listing.) Don't be lazy here — this is your storefront. ✅ 3. Stand Out with Unique Listings and Mockups Everyone may have access to the same 12,000+ assets inside the D³ Kit and to the bundles posted here, but less than 100 people own D³ Kit — and even fewer are maximizing it and the Bundles posted here. Differentiate your listings by: - Using your own branded or customized mockups-watermarks etc - Showing your products in real-life scenes or styled previews - Updating your visuals seasonally to stay relevant - Did you know that you can change the color of your images using Canva to offer unique listings?

Perfect for pricing PNGs, SVGs, journals, and templates. Use this as a guide and adjust based on your product’s value, the platform you’re selling on, and whether you're offering extras like resell rights, mockups, or bundle deals.
