I've been fighting it for who knows how long? At least a couple of years. I had this incredible fear of Etsy. I've done everything I could to avoid becoming a seller on Etsy. I've joined myriad other sites, including but not limited to: ArtFire, Amazon, ThreeSistersMarketplace (chose not to go any further with them), yardsellr, blah blah blah.
ArtFire was working for me for a couple of months there, and the price is right. I just don't think enough people know about ArtFire, therefore there's not enough traffic to keep my little business afloat.
Oh, and I fought the Ebay urge too. I love shopping for supplies on Ebay, but I just wasn't having any of the selling.
Now, my two main sales forces are Ebay and ETSY...and I am LOVING IT!!!!!
I've only been with Etsy for two or three days now. Wish me luck, and think happy thoughts!!!!!!
Inspiration, creation, beautiful things! My blog is dedicated to exploration of color, form, fragrance, texture, and purpose. I am a small-time artisan involved in the creation of natural bath and beauty products, candles, soaps, and funky and chunky jewelry. I also promote hobbies such as gardening and rock hunting. It's all about what I scatter, rather than what I gather in this life!!!!
