Send us a text Unlock the secrets of thriving in the vintage marketplace with me, Cindy Fannistock Schafer, on this enlightening episode of Living a Vintage Life by Retro Chalet. Discover how Etsy has transformed from a modest platform to a bustling marketplace with millions of shops, yet still holds tremendous potential for dedicated sellers. I share my personal journey with Etsy and reveal how 25% of shops manage to stand out in competitive markets like jewelry, psychic readings, and print-on-demand products. Dive into the strategies that can help you succeed, including understanding Etsy's ever-changing algorithms and learning from industry experts like Dylan Jarvis. Explore a world beyond Etsy as we navigate various online platforms for selling vintage and handmade items. From the promising yet traffic-dependent Go Imagine to the fashion-centric Poshmark, we dissect each platform's unique advantages and challenges. Hear my candid thoughts on eBay's customer service and why Facebook Marketplace is your go-to for local sales. As we circle back to Etsy, I provide actionable tips on optimizing SEO and keywords using tools like Marmalead and E-Rank, to help boost your shop's visibility and potential sales. Maximize your Etsy sales with strategic tactics focused on the buyer experience and efficient shipping. Learn how small items like individual mason jars can save on shipping costs and improve profit margins, and why thoughtful packaging and personalized notes can lead to repeat customers. I stress the importance of refining product offerings, using social media to drive traffic, and making consistent daily tweaks to improve your shop's performance over time. Whether you're a seasoned seller or just starting out, this episode is packed with insights to help you thrive in the world of vintage sales online.

Send us a text Part one of two, special Episode on Etsy's latest fee hike which takes place April 11, 2022 from a 5% sales fee to 6.5% sales fee, and how some sellers are organizing an #EtsyStrike, which is now all over Twitter, Discord, and has it's own website EtsyStrike.org. Seller's anger is making news such as MSN Market News, The Street and The Verge, and more. I discuss the fees associated with selling on Etsy with special guest Harry Burger from Lightbringer Designs who sells wax seals and stamps.
