Don’t forget to read the April magazine! Have you ever felt like being an artist and running a business at the same time is far harder than it looks? Do you find yourself getting frustrated about the mess that you can never quite keep up with? One of our featured sellers, Diana, filled out a featured seller application and mentioned that she had to overcome procrastination and disorganization, something many of us artists can relate to, especially when working from home. Things like house chores always seemed to get in the way and become a distraction. In the magazine, read Diana’s story to learn how she changed her habits and created a better work environment for herself.
“I get distracted pretty easily and end up lost in procrastination land. I found myself mixing my work with house chores which was very unproductive. “
-Diana Garcia @collagecrafting
“The seller base on Etsy was only growing, which meant that the competition was, too…” -Amanda
Amanda also filled out our application to share her story in the Handmade Seller magazine and mentioned that she was thriving despite being a jewelry seller which is the most saturated category on Etsy. We loved what she had to say about it, so we asked her to elaborate! She’s now sharing her journey and how she reached 11,000 Etsy sales despite selling in the most competitive category.
“I learned the beginnings of a skill set that would eventually take me to where I am now: over 11,000 Etsy orders, a brand new website, and a full-time profitable business.”
– Amanda Reimer @silvermoosearts
