Sometimes I am asked about side hustles. After all, who isn't looking for extra cash? And who knows, if business grows, you could actually ditch your day job, have more control over your life, and earn what you know you're worth. No more hoping and praying for a raise, you can give yourself a raise whenever you want. And Etsy is a great place to showcase your one-of-a-kind products. Here are some tips for growing your Etsy shop that will help your profits stay consistent.
Third-Party Logistics
As profitable as it is, running an Etsy shop is hard work, so consider using as many assistive resources as you can find. For example, work with a third-party logistics company to fulfill orders. These types of corporations offer complete transparency and let you see the order from start to finish. They’ll also help with pesky returns and handle customer service when people are unhappy. That way, you can concentrate on making and selling products instead.
Rewards Programs
Every company has a few loyal customers that always come back, and their sales don’t go unnoticed. That’s why you might start a rewards program to show them how grateful you are. Here are a few things you can do to make sure your customers know you appreciate them:
· Give them a discount on every tenth purchase they make
· Offer exclusive rewards on customers’ birthdays
· Reduce prices if they buy higher quantities
Social Media
Etsy is a digital company. As a result, one tip for growing your Etsy shop is to invest in a social media campaign. You’ll need a top-quality Instagram account that includes URLs to your Etsy shop. For example, post pics of your products all the time and add the URLs in the comments so that folks can easily find what they want. Bam! Instant profit.
Kids are expensive. It seems like new bills come in every day. So, start an Etsy shop to get more profits. To your surprise, you may make an obscene amount of cash. Also, it’s a creative outlet you can use to let out your artistic thoughts.
