Time Needed to Create your store on Etsy:

You can log in almost immediately on Etsy,

But while creating your store you have to create its title, get pictures of the item you want to ell, write a convincing description, determine price determination points.

To complete the above steps, it can take one or two days.

Tips:

      1.       Determine what you are going to sell: before you put your feet in Etsy, make a list of items that you can make.

Once the list is ready, go to Etsy and type in keywords to find other sellers offering similar items you want to sell.

Discover what they sell? How do their products differ from others? What are their pricing strategies?

Do some competitive analysis and try to find items on your list that experience less competition.

Based on your initial research and competition analysis, create an item that you think is more suitable for creating your initial space on Etsy.

     2.       Select a name for your store: once you register an account with Etsy, you must first set up your store, and naming your store is the first step of the installation process.

Select a name that represents what you want to sell. but do not waste time searching for a perfect name.

Etsy gives you another chance to rename your store, so choose a name right away and think about it later.

     3.       Set up your store: here are the important steps you need to follow when setting up the store.

_create a logo

Creating a logo is extremely important for building a brand and improving credibility.

Make sure that the logo you design is unique and represents the items you want to sell.

If you do not have graphic design skills, it is always better to outsource the design task of a logo to someone on Fiverr.

Tell them what you want and let Fiverr experts do work for you.

_take attractive item photos

Photos become the first point of contact between your potential customer and your item.

You must, therefore, ensure that your photos do the work to attract the attention of the customer and convince him/her to read the description.

If they do not find the photos of an item attractive, they will never read the description of your item.

A trick is to study the photos of another successful store that sells similar items like yours and then replicate their technique.

If possible, try to take photos with a digital SLR camera and use white background,

_offer varying prices, and sizes

4. Most of the successful Etsy sellers offer different article sizes and prices, helping them attract all levels of buyers.

This strategy helps them to make sure that there's always something for everybody.

For e.g. if you sell smaller original items at a lower price, people who can not buy large expensive items can still buy from you.

This way you can meet the needs of both expensive and budget buyers.

    5.   Write a convincing descriptions: the description of your article is the second most important factor after photos, it is the job to convince potential customers to place an order with you.

So make sure you write the most appealing article description.

The best way to start is to study what your competitors have written in 

Their description, to study the biggest questions your potential customer is asking.

Take notes and model your description supported your notes.

Also, try to answer the questions of potential customer, so they do not have reservations when placing an order with you.

Also, communicate important details, about your item, such as dimensions, the material used, care to be taken during use, and so on.

    6.      Add the right tags and keywords: most potential customers will find your store through search.

You must, therefore, ensure that your title and description contain the right keywords.

If you want to generate a list of key-words, think about what your potential customer would type into the search bar to find what you are selling.

Sniff the title and description of your competitor to dig up more relevant keywords.

Also, create a list of relevant keywords that appear in the automatically_proposed list of the Etsy search bar and add them to your listings.
