So, to actively promote her designs in February, Heather started joining Facebook groups relevant to some of her career niches. In January, Heather had just one sale through the Etsy platform. Heather said she continued to branch out and target new niches as she had more ideas. Heather then went into the dog niche, before branching out further into more niches. “Any occupation you can think of, I started designing for,” Heather told me. Heather started out with seasonal niches, like Valentine’s Day, St Patrick’s Day, Halloween, etc., before moving into the teaching niche.Īfter seeing success with teaching, Heather said she decided to branch out and try other careers. By April, sales were picking up and Heather had her first best seller.Īnd the surprising thing was that her best-selling design was one of the designs Heather almost didn’t upload as she didn’t think it was good enough. She admits that she hardly saw any sales and started getting frustrated.īut it takes time to get some momentum going. To prove these points, Heather said she uploaded about 100 designs in January. The print-on-demand market on Etsy is competitive, you have to be very active to compete and capitalize on trends.It’s a great way to get better at creating products and listings.Etsy’s algorithm rewards stores that publish new listings often.You can never be 100% what’s going to do well, so the more listings you have the better chance you have of seeing what works.Heather explained there are a few advantages to posting a lot of listings on Etsy:
The Etsy “gurus” Heather was learning from were saying that creating a “high-volume listing store” was the best way to get noticed on Etsy. Heather’s action plan included the goal of creating 3-5 new listings every day throughout January and February. ‘Action plan to make 6-figures in 2021.’” Heather told me. I remember, I actually wrote down on a piece of paper: “It was halfway through December I started recreating designs, and then in January, I started posting designs. She ended up putting her shop on pause, then in late 2020 got serious about growing her side hustle and picked it back up. Heather actually started her print-on-demand business early in the pandemic when her work hours got cut back.
