Aloha and Mahalo. Your videos are awesome. They’ve helped me immensely in setting up my Etsy shop. I wanted to thank you for posting, wish you a ton of success with Etsy and RU-vid. And I wanted to tell you that I’ve been to Hawaii a couple of times and it’s by far one of the best places on earth. All the best! Aloha.
Aloha! Thank you so much for your kind words and for watching! I am so glad my videos have been able to help you out. That is so awesome you have been to Hawaii! It is a very special place, I am glad you were able to experience its magic! Please let me know if you have any questions at any time! I want to help you the best I can to make your journey as smooth as possible. 🙏
I have been watching your videos and I came up with some questions 1.why does it always say one or two items left if it is print on demand 2. How to get fabric on the shirt like fabric cutouts or glitter I have watched all of your videos so if you want to wait and answer through a video I will be here to watch it thanks again you have opened my eyes to a brighter future
Thank you for your questions and for supporting my channel! It means a lot! 1. If you are referring to selling on Etsy, the shops who show one or two items left are either not print on demand so they actually have low stock, or if they are, then they might be putting a low number in their product quantity to show scarcity for sale conversion. On Etsy, you can manually enter your product quantity, so print on demand shops can put a high number because they will not run out (unless Printful is restocking). 2. We use Printful as our primary production partner and they specialize in DTG (direct-to-garment), embroidery, and all-over print. We use DTG for all of our products. The Etsy shops you see that sell products with fabric cutouts or glitter vinyl are most likely producing them themselves. I hope this answers your questions! If it didn't, please let me know. If you have any other questions, feel free to reach out anytime! I hope my channel can inspire you to take action and help you along the way. Your future is bright :)
Thank you for your video! Could you please create 1 about sizing listing/ thumbnail photos for etsy? I'm a bit confused from mixed info i got from internet, some says 4:3 ratio, some says 5:4 ratio...
Hi! Great question. I don't think it's too crucial, so don't get too overwhelmed with all of the opinions. The shortest side of the image should be 2000 pixels (or around that number). The 4:3 ratio or 5:4 ratio recommendations are to make sure your entire listing photo isn't cropped when it's shown in search results, but I zoom in on my listing photos a bit to clearly show my designs so it's not a huge deal for me. I think 4:3 is great, but either would be fine.
Hey there. When I go to shop manager all I see is shop perferences, name your shop, how you’ll get paid, set up billing, your shop security. I’m wondering do I have to do this before being able to edit my banner etc. That seems backwards but I can’t figure out how to get to the shop manager that looks like yours. Any help is appreciated!
So sorry for the delayed response! Hopefully you’ve figured it out by now, but if not, you have to go through those steps first before being able to see the shop manager that looks like mine in the video. I go through these steps in my previous video if you’d like to watch it! Here’s the link: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-a8Mudfr0fRw.html I hope this helps!
Great video but i'm using the free version and want to do the mini banner (even if I use the big banner) its blurry on Etsy. I love what I created. How do we correct that if possible? I really don't wanna pay for Canva for a banner resizing. I'm checking Google now for some tip.
Hi Kenny! You shouldn't have to upgrade to the paid version of Canva for your banner to be clear. Make sure your canvas size is 3360 x 840 pixels for optimal performance, and a minimum of 1200 x 300 pixels. I hope this helps!
@@brenondopp Hi you can't do that. Maybe they changed it. How do you accomplish this: "Make sure your canvas size is 3360 x 840 pixels" I created an account on Canva and followed your video word for word. When you go to download the file the sizing part is grayed out. Its set at 1200x300 (just like in your video) and that's it. When uploading to Etsy it's blurry... I'm familiar with the larger files for best quality - that would be great then Etsy could downsize it if you will, but it would still keep the exact mint pic/banner.
@@brenondopp I did see a lot of threads on Google for this exact problem. I found a video to DL the file as a .PDF from Canva actually instead, and then go to a site to convert it to a .jpg and like magic it kept the same crisp banner.
Hi Kathleen! Sadly, there is no way to guarantee to prevent this from happening even if you take all of the precautions. I recommend watermarking your mockup photos so it’s not as easy to steal. As bad as it sounds, just know that your designs may get stolen at some point during your journey, but if you’re lucky, it may not happen to you. If you do find a seller that has stolen your designs, you can report their listing or message them and kindly ask them to remove their listing otherwise you will be reporting it to Etsy. I hope this helps! Thanks so much for watching!
I have a little question : when I want to download my etsy banner, it suggest me to download "not png" like in your video, but "video mp4. So when I want to edit my new banner, it's impossible to do it. Why is that ?
Hi Sylvie! Do you have any animated graphics or effects in your banner? If so, it will make you download it as a mp4 instead of a png. I suggest going back and deleting or replacing any animated effects you may have added and then it should work.
