Not only do you have to focus on beautiful product shots like you mentioned, but there is so much social media efforts that are needed to keep it running.

Hopefully they'll grow with the help of its sellers, which I'm sure is how Etsy has become the beast it is today! Good luck to you too :) LouSewmotionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15312915575213316891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2617815239901728816.post-10306502755342701342015-07-22T14:49:50.704+01:002015-07-22T14:49:50.704+01:00I enjoyed this post.

I question why some people on Etsy sell 100's of the same items I sell, yet I do good to sell one item every few months. I have noticed that they have been around for years so maybe the built a customer base from the beginning. I keep studying those blogs and reading all the articles. Maybe some day. Good luck in your endeavors.
