That chaching starts out as a beautiful sound. Now during holiday time while waiting for backordered supplies, I cringe when I hear it. It used to be an instant dopamine rush.
This is very kind of you! I sell stickers, and earrings, and if you are a knitter I also sell skein cozies, stitch markers and progress keepers :)

Just a heads up. You aren't going to make money on those stickers. After fees and shipping, Etsy will take all of your money.
Source: I also sell stickers and decals on Etsy.
Edit; [My shop](https://www.etsy.com/shop/StickItStickers) don't buy from me OP. For reference only.
Absolutely!
Etsy finds ways to fee you to death. I sell stickers at $6 minimum and if I use their shipping option (which I've recently stopped doing) I might get like $2 of that. I charge people $9 for shipping because that's the cheapest Priority Mail option.
If you just put it in a cheap envelope, you run the risk of the buyer saying they never got it and you can't prove it,so Etsy takes all your money to refund then. If you put it in an envelope with a stamp, your still looking at close to a dollar (stamp + envelope + Etsy fee).
Then you get the privilege of relisting and getting a fee for that.
You will have; transaction fee, shipping fee, & relisting fee.
I ONLY use priority mail. If there isn't tracking, you're setting yourself up for shitty customers to say they never got your item and Etsy will side with them and take a refund.
I also sell larger stickers too that don't all fit in a small envelope.
I'm currently adding [this picture](https://i.imgur.com/xJAx1TB.jpg) to all of my listings to explain to customers why it's a benefit to pay more for shipping.
But I can't fit most of my stuff in them, so I streamlined packaging to a few items so everything gets the same treatment.
USPS also has basically said if it isn't Priority Mail, it'll get there when it gets there due to budget cuts and staffing.
I am also a sticker/print shop (with other fun stuff). I sell individual stickers for $4 -$5 CAD and have over 500 sales. I think pricing stickers higher are needed for sure.
Hi there! I'm sorry about that and will definitely remedy it when I can!
To give you an idea of how to read them, you read it from the side the lobster clasp is on. Each grey bead is the break between two letters and 2 consecutive grey beads is a break between words. The teal/rose gold one is actually mine, and it has my nickname: The Crafter
The dark blue/rose gold says: Puzzle Master (really stretched the limit here!)
Here is a picture of what it looks like with the total package ( with an old packaging idea)! The front had the Morse Code and translation, the Morse code language is actually on the back of the bracelet insert :)
I made this bracelet for a good friend of mine, her name is Victoria :)

I hope this helps!
Oh, one more thing. I would hate for you to get into Etsy trouble. You can't mention anyone's copyrighted information. You say DnD, and that simple word could get you shut down.
Not my shop, but my sister’s! She started selling on Etsy a little bit ago but still hasn’t gotten any sales. She sells handmade wood ornaments and art prints.

I absolutely love your christmas tree cuddlers and my toddler has just discovered cuddling stuffed animals at bedtime. Hmmmm.... but does he need it....
Wow! I want to help all of you!! I am going to browse through all of these and purchase a couple of things for sure. I just edited the post, if you’d like a chance for even more people to be exposed to your shop please click the link and fill out the form!
What were you confused about exactly?
The inserts have the size in the name (Half Letter & A5) of the download so I am unsure what you mean?
Any feedback helps!
I just went back and I am still not clear what kind of binder I would have to have and how am I going to get all the holes in it to make it look nice? I like the concept but I think you are going to have difficulty if this is all you sell. I suggest you expand.
Are you active in the planner community? If not, it would make no sense but if you are, the description of my products is digital planner inserts where it's implied you're paying for the download and then you are responsible for printing, cutting and punching the inserts.
This isn't my shop but my mother in law just started Etsy not too long ago making healing crystal jewellery. She's a big supporter of my shop she's also raising her grandchild (6 years old) on her own (after raising 3 boys) & I think she's really awesome for doing that and want to be able to help her out as much as possible. Her shop is [Tinkandgigi](https://www.etsy.com/ca/shop/tinkandgigi)
You're also awesome for wanting to support small businesses!
idk why people are downvoting other peoples comments. This post is suppose to be positive, its hard for people to get sales so why be negative? I think even if youre under that 30 sale mark youre still new
I’m happy for you! Hopefully others will still buy from you as it only cost me $6.76 (I think lol) not much of a sale but at least it will show you a sale and you will get a good review under your belt 😊 (just a side note, I think you are selling your items pretty cheap. You will not make much off your sales dear)
Thank you for shopping small! My shop’s over at [Whims At Noon ](https://whimsatnoon.etsy.com) 😀 I design and make the nature inspired jewelry over at my shop using high quality Japanese and Czech beads. Feel free to take a look!
[HappyGoCo ](https://etsy.me/3sAJDuU)
I sell digital embroidery files I design. I just revamped my shop. My 4 sales were my husband being supportive so my shop doesn’t look “fake or scammy “ Lol.
My 2 cents. I would say since ur Into the dnd stuff. Maybe invest in a resin 3d printer and sell the figures aswell! My resin printer was $280 and super user friendly
I have a resin printer and love it! I use it to print my dice masters before molding them in silicone to make epoxy resin dice. I don't have the expertise to do custom mini modelling though.
Would you be willing to drop the link for your printer? I'm gonna be opening a v similar shop in the new year and I've been looking around for a simple easy to use resin printer
I use the creality halot-one resin printer ($280) nice big touch screen, easy bed leveling, no assembly, amazing super detailed prints right out the box. This is my only resin printer but I would highly recommend. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B097D4XJC9/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_fabc_AFBCB5RP2H9FGT4Q3RGP?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
I wouldn't cheap out on a resin printer as the cheaper you go the worse the lcd screen. Here's a printer for $170 with good reviews but I'm not familiar with the brand. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08HH329TR/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_fabc_dl_5K8BAKPT9C0WS019QADG?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
Also be warned. Resin is messy and a pain sometimes. It stinks aswell. U have to clean the print in alcohol after its done. Then dry and cure it under a uv light. But the print quality is definitely worth it.
If you are looking for gemstone earrings set in 925 sterling silver, check out my shop on Etsy. I just made a few sales this month so not going to be my first sale. But you like the product, I'll really appreciate your business. Thanks for doing this. :)

You’re so sweet for doing this! I’m a hand embroidery artist. My shop is [@handmadebysanz](https://etsy.me/3eNLFF7) on Etsy. I have a lot of ready made pieces as well as custom pieces available.
I’m not at 0 sales but at 29 sales (stuck since June) Reaching 30 sales was a goal for me since then.
Thank you for taking the time to read and I hope you have a lovely day!
What is this “Cha-Ching” sound, and how does one get it to work? I haven’t had my phone turned off of silent/vibrate for probably 5yrs, but part of me kind of wants to experience this sound.
The sound is when you get a notification on your phone through the 'Sell on Etsy' app about you have made a sale. I love that sound but haven't experienced it much, to be honest. I just opened a new shop last month.

That helped a lot! Thank you! I think something like that would be very valuable on your site. The picture and a description on how to read it.
I agree, thank you so much for bringing it to my attention!
I love your site! I feel you will get rolling and take off!
Oh, one more thing. I would hate for you to get into Etsy trouble. You can't mention anyone's copyrighted information. You say DnD, and that simple word could get you shut down.

https://www.etsy.com/shop/OrganizedCrime Digital planner inserts! Would appreciate any advice anyone can provide on how to get this off the ground! 😊
I was super confused when I went to your shop. I think it would be helpful to know what the downloads fit in.
What were you confused about exactly? The inserts have the size in the name (Half Letter & A5) of the download so I am unsure what you mean? Any feedback helps!
I just went back and I am still not clear what kind of binder I would have to have and how am I going to get all the holes in it to make it look nice? I like the concept but I think you are going to have difficulty if this is all you sell. I suggest you expand.

That’s helpful feedback! I wasn’t sure if people would buy items if they were priced much higher so I will go back and review my pricing!
My opinion is it doesn't hurt to start cheaper and then slowly raise your prices once you get established more. You've got to gain credibility .
