HIDDEN Etsy Settings That Elevate Your Etsy Shop [AND BRING IN PROFIT!]

what if I told you there's some hidden settings inside of your Etsy shop that will help you increase your viewers which will ultimately help you get more sales in today's video we're going to break down some of our hidden settings that you may be sleeping on so that we can help you elevate yourselves right away guys when you're promoting your own products are you using the share and save link what this does is it tells Etsy that you are taking on the responsibility of bringing the customer in this is the reason why many of you are confused and not going all in on your Etsy shop because you're trying to create a shop of your own but you're not understanding the algorithm of etsy this right here where you're using the share and save links this will save you so much money because those links you are promoting on social media on your Facebook group to your friends and your family they will allow you to save 4% of the sale Etsy is going to say hey Tanner is promoting this Tanner's go get the customer across the Finish Line to buy we're going save him 4% and I get to keep more money in my pocket if you are considering going all in on an Etsy Shop be sure when you do and you're ready to promote it use these share and save links we don't talk about it a lot but all you need to do and understand is that when you use the Etsy share and save to link your products to social media or any other external platform you're going save 4% okay that's huge and to do this all you need to do go to your shop manager go under marketing and then under the Shop and Save copy the link or share a listing at the gear at the bottom of the listing simply Click Share and then copy the link to any external platform all right now here's what you want to do make sure to copy that link and don't lose it but you also have to keep in mind you cannot use that link inside the Etsy platform and customers must purchase within 30 days of the link created all right so you can't bookmark this link and use it over and over you need to I would recommend creating a fresh one listing change things like that this will help you so much and I invite you guys who want to promote your shop on social media to use it to save little extra money every single sale if I got paid a dollar for every time someone told me they need a second Etsy Shop I'd be rich but let me put you on to something if you're someone that thinks you need multiple Etsy shops that's a myth it's so much better to put all your energy into one shop and here's why are you organizing your shop into sections let me explain what's a section and why is it important you may ask these are the virtual aisles of your your shop and what I want you to think about is you're a boutique when you go into a boutique do you only see shirts no because most people when they're in a boutique they are there and they have a desire to buy nothing when you're shopping in a boutique there's nothing you need you are in the want area and you are the person that is curating the shop and you need different sections so I want to make sure that you're using sections this is again kind of like going down aisles of your shop and this is located on the left side panel of your shop no one likes going to a disorganized brick and mortar store right if there's a boutique and it's not organized I'm leaving because I'm overwhelmed same thing with your online shop you are the curator you are curating the experience and if you do it well guess what people are going to order more spend more and you're going to make more so think about this as you're organizing your sections keep your shop organized it's a key to keeping the customer engaged in the shopping experience I really want you guys to think about this okay these should be organized very thoroughly things that are on sale Maybe by season I totally think you should have a bestseller section and this should be towards the top with less popular categories for focused on the bottom think about when you walk into a boutique when you walk into a store or they're put in front and center the things they know you want to buy and the things that they aren't so sure about we be further back same thing with your sections all right here are some simple tips have at least four listings per section if you can't put four or five listings in a section don't create it yet focus on more listings and furthermore do not have three or four pages of listings in a section that's too many people are not going to uh see it it kind of reminds me of when they created the iPhone they didn't create a lot of options at Apple now more than ever there's a lot of options but they're a billion dollar company in the beginning they didn't give you options so it took away the friction a lot of people think you need more options so that people will buy more not always the case you actually want to give them less options to make the shopping experience less um friction so that they can make a decision they can buy it and make you money and they get the product so keep that in mind too all right I also recommend custom sort um your sections so that the highest profit and the most popular items are at the top remember it's not always about the highest price item it's about the highest profit item big thing to think about put warehouse and close out sell at the top if applicable so if you're trying to get rid of stuff if you're trying to sell quite a bit of things kind of call it like a warehouse sale or a closeout I love that and then you can always go to your listings and go under the manage section and you can edit the titles you can add sections delete sections you can even merge sections and reorganize it just like someone would reset their store the day after Halloween for Christmas you should be doing this too so the day after Christmas you would go ahead and reset your store for maybe a winter theme right so it goes away from Christmas and it focuses on maybe New Year's maybe it adds some Valentine's Day maybe it adds a fitness goal section whatever you are focused on for the next month or two you should reset your sections in your shop this next one I really want to invite you if you're just getting traction to do this okay turn on the Etsy plus if you have more than 30 listings and here's why when it costs you $10 a month the cost is $10 but they give you $5 back in advertising so you're only out essentially $5 a month and you're going to get 15 credits per month allowing you to use those to renew listings or crediting you for creating new ones now you also are going to get that fob dollar credit to boost your visibility on Etsy the reason I don't recommend you starting with Etsy plus as a beginner is because we want to see what's going to happen just as an everyday seller and you want to see can you get sales as an everyday seller or not if you have listings that are not you know selling right you're not going to you know Etsy plus is not going to help you what Etsy plus does really well is if if you have something taking off naturally it will really take off with Etsy plus so that's why we want you to have 30 listings and have some sales under your belt before you turn this feature on okay another option for restock request meanings your customers will have the option to request an email for when certain items come back in stock if you are someone who does a lot of custom things if you have low quantities this will help them create a weight list through Etsy that you can't do without Etsy plus all right one of my favorite features is that you get a custom web address through hover which is an Etsy partner so you're going to get that custom web address which I really do appreciate when it comes to Etsy plus and one thing to note is the whole look of your shop changes when you start using Etsy plus it looks more like a website and less like an Etsy shop so scrollable banners you can have multiple photos larger featured listing area to show off your most popular items if you're ready to take your shop serious and go from running just an Etsy shop to running a full-on boutique which is kind of like the theme of today's video it's time to take it serious and you want to have Etsy plus remember having at your own storefront is so last year you no longer have people coming in you need to be on 24/7 this is the beauty of having an Etsy Shop you create the listings and then you can go live your life and hear the cha chinging sound coming in while you're living your life instead of being strapped down to a storefront so keep that in mind if you're watching this video considering building an Etsy shop or not because there's so many things you can do to elevate it and for some of you you just
