Etsy's Handmade Blog
Etsy Sellers Unite for Etsy Day — Join in!

UPDATE: Happy Etsy Day! #etsyday is trending number one on Twitter according to Twazzup!
ps
Remember, it's "Etsy" not "Esty," sillies!

The Etsy Forums have united and declared Friday, April 24th, 2009, Etsy Day! Hurrah! We here at Etsy love you for working together to create a really exciting opportunity for us all.  We will be reporting the guerilla marketing on Friday and we challenge YOU, buyer, seller or fan, to shout "Etsy!" from the rooftops. Get the Etsy name out there in the brightest, sparkly-est, boldest way you can think of!  Make sure to record your efforts with video or photos (if you upload photos to flickr, making sure to tag them "Etsy Day 2009"). We'll be highlighting the funniest, weirdest, most attention grabbing efforts here on Etsy's Blog and on our social networks (like our Facebook page and Twitter), and we'll make sure to link back to you. 

To learn more about Etsy Day, check out the latest forum post by Shugirl here.

Here are some ideas from the Etsy Admin:

  1. If you get people to sign up for Etsy on Friday make sure they mention your Etsy username in the Referrer Username box at sign up!  If we see a user who really rocks this, we'll automatically include you in our Etsy Day follow up post. So if you print out flyers, get on the news, or get Ashton Kutcher to tweet about Etsy, make sure you get your username in there, too!
  2. Tweet your endeavors via Twitter and make sure to add the hash tag #EtsyDay.  (And send it to @aplusk. Let's get Ashton Kutcher's attention on Etsy Day. Ha! Mr. Most Twitter Followers.)
  3. Support a new seller on Etsy Day! Buy an item from someone with no sales (you can find them on Pounce Undiscovered), and wish them a "Happy Etsy Day" in the Message to Seller field when you check out.
  4. Print out schugirl's Etsy sign to stick in your car window or download and print out the design Anda made for Etsy Day!
  5. Get an Etsy tattoo!
  6. Dress your family in all orange. When you get weird looks, whisper "Etsy".
  7. One final clarification..."Etsy" is pronounced like "Betsy" with no B.

Ok, we're getting silly now.  Let's hear your own Etsy Day guerilla marketing ideas! Post them in the comments below.  And don't forget to post photos of your wildest Etsy Day promotions to Flickr and tag them "Etsy Day 2009"!

The Fine Print: This promotion is being sponsored by independent Etsy shop owners, not Etsy.com. We're just excited about it.

I love the idea of an Etsy Day, but that graphic says "APR 29" and the article says April 24. Which is it?

April 22, 2009 at 6:38 p.m. michelemaule

Whoohoo!!

Two other tips: Update your Facebook status with ETSY! Recommend Etsy items you love on ThisNext.com

April 22, 2009 at 7:02 p.m. roundabout

I'm a big fan of using public computers (the library, the Apple store etc.) and leaving the screen on Etsy's homepage - that way the next person who walks by may discover this amazing marketplace!

April 22, 2009 at 7:02 p.m. daniellexo

Love those two tips above me!

April 22, 2009 at 7:09 p.m. ovgilliesdesigns

What a great idea! I don't think anyone will hear me if I shout from a top of a hill, but, hey, there might be some weekend walkers from the mainland passing by! ;D

I'm going to wear a shirt with ironed on letters that say "Etsy Day" along with shop handmade and the address underneath it!!!
I am sending out a letter to everything at the college where I work that refers to Etsy day and the link. Not sure how I am working it yet.

I love the idea of advertising in the local paper too.

I LOVE ETSY!!!

OMG - I'll be happy to *scream* it via emails, blast my cell phone contacts in a mass texting!, through blogger connections, Tweet and Meet, and welcome tons of NEW Sellers to this awesome place I call " My Second Home"!

Living in NYC, this should be a blast of fun! Hope I get great footage of a cam to send you....You KNOW we have the best and wildest peple crawling here in the Big Apple.

Oh, BTW - Love the orange wearables concept. Gives me a good reason to use that color that I NEVER wear but will on the 24th - GO ETSY! ((hugs to all))

April 23, 2009 at 2:24 a.m. rakubuttons

I guess I did my part on Monday. I got a random market study call about craft items and home decor. It was 20 minutes! Where do I shop? How much do I spend? Why do I shop there?.......

Etsy was my answer for almost everything! How do you spell that again" e-t-s-y.

[i suspect it was a study to find out how JoAnn's is doing against other craft stores].

lol. bet they are scratching thier collective heads now. What's an etsy? hahaha

April 23, 2009 at 2:26 a.m. BlueTerracotta

All great ideas!! We need to get the word out about etsy in Europe, for sure. Also, I like the idea of buying from a shop with no sales yet... to make them feel at home here!

April 23, 2009 at 8:37 a.m. FancyPantsAndMore

♪♫I love ETSY! It's filled with things made from love.
Someone told me it was great, and gave the site a shove.
So, I joined ETSY, and found a happy home.
Now I sell my wares there, I've no more need to roam.♪♫

(sung to the tune of the old Bosco song, which most of you are probably too young to remember) :)

I love silly!!

Etsy day?! cool - an international celebration :D

For anyone who wants to make a T-shirt - you can make your own by buying iron-on sheets at WalMart or Office Depot or Staples and printing the above logo or the one by shugirl on your own printer at home. I've done it before and it really works great. Let's spread the word!!!

I thought you couldn't include "etsy" as a tag on flickr? Or do I have it wrong?

April 23, 2009 at 11:55 a.m. thebestvintage

Very Cool!

April 23, 2009 at 11:56 a.m. beckykazana

April 23, 2009 at 11:59 a.m. daniellexo

nhubs - You definitely can tag your promotional efforts "Etsy Day 2009" on Flickr :)

April 23, 2009 at 12:08 p.m. unemployeddesigner

I've got an orange t-shirt that I'm putting the graphic on today. Going to wear it around Manhattan tomorrow with my jacket open. Wonder if I can get some cards printed out between now and then..... They'd be great to drop off around the city too....

April 23, 2009 at 12:12 p.m. matchstickgirl

fantastic idea ....
i am in the desert in nevada ...maybe a big rock word "etsy"
to be seen from space....

:D

Yippee Skippee! Now...what to do...???

April 23, 2009 at 12:28 p.m. LoveMeKnotCreations

April 23, 2009 at 1:10 p.m. herbanlifestyle

I plan to set my facebook status to Happy Etsy Day and add it as a tagline to all my emails!!!

April 23, 2009 at 1:19 p.m. jewelrybyallison

This is going to be great!

April 23, 2009 at 1:21 p.m. shecological

Excellent idea to spread the word! I will send all my email friends and customers an anouncement and include a screen shot of one of my favorite treasuries to give them a sample of things to look at. I will also get the kids in my sewing class to make up an etsy cheer to perform to the school!

Thanks for starting this!!!

April 23, 2009 at 1:28 p.m. debarch7

wonder if there will be a special 'sneak attack' on etsy day?

April 23, 2009 at 1:41 p.m. youheartus

has everyone "stumbled upon" etsy, too?

@aplusk is in for a treat...but there are also TONS of other celebs on twitter! hit them all! don't forget @oprah, @kingsthings, @mrskutcher and a whole bunch more...I have lots of celebs in the list of tweeters I follow (@krystyna81)

Plus @etsy is one of only a few people that @marthastewart follows!

April 23, 2009 at 2:52 p.m. GodSendCrafts

Sending my 10yr old daughter to school with Etsy buttons to pass out. Yea!!! She's told all her teachers about it.
Everyone Rocks at Etsy!

April 23, 2009 at 3:06 p.m. Softpencil

Great idea!

April 23, 2009 at 3:14 p.m. ZiggyStitch

Yea for Etsy Day!! Central California Etsy Team had note cards and the window signs made up, (anxiously awaits tomorrow:))

April 23, 2009 at 4:01 p.m. HazelHoney

sounds like good times. I suggested Etsy to a lady I noticed always knits at my kids dance lessons I told her it's a totally great place to buy and sell handmade.

The Etsy tatoo idea is way funny I'd love to see if anyone actually does that (permanent not temporary).

April 23, 2009 at 4:36 p.m. lolos

Cool idea!! :-)))

April 23, 2009 at 4:50 p.m. treasurefield

Wearing one of my own rings while shopping the other day, the checkout girl admired it, so I told her where I sell. I was taken aback that she hadn't heard of ETSY! I gave her one of my cards & told her to check out all the other shops, too. I guess she's still at it. LOL!
^_^

April 23, 2009 at 5:10 p.m. UniqueRM

See treasurefield, I was surprised because someone who came into my work HAD heard of Etsy! I told her about my business and she asked if I was on Etsy! :)

April 23, 2009 at 6:05 p.m. EcoArthowie

Wonderful idea!

YAY!!!!!!!!!! going to brainstorm for some fun ideas!

April 23, 2009 at 7:06 p.m. LoveMeKnotCreations

oh, also i'm going to be (throughout the day) posting links to random items i find on Etsy on my facebook status and also on twitter.

perhaps they'll click and like what they see :)

April 23, 2009 at 7:12 p.m. schugirl

Love me knot---that is a great idea!

April 23, 2009 at 7:35 p.m. milemarker

I don't know if anyone has mentioned this, but my fav. way to promote Etsy is to add the things I want to my Amazon list. My friends and family eventually see the cool stuff I have found, register, buy it for me !!! and keep browsing for themselves.

April 23, 2009 at 8:04 p.m. schugirl

I don't even know what an Amazon list is...must investigate!

April 23, 2009 at 8:05 p.m. whyte

WOOHOO Etsy Day!!!!!

I wrote an Etsy song. It is to the tune of "Somewhere Over The Rainbow" It's kinda weird but, hey, I tried my best. Here it is:

Etsy's on the computer
It's a site
Where you can by handmade and vintage
All through the day and night!

Etsy has many features
And lots of things to find!
In the treasury or gift guide...
So many it will blow your mind!

Ooohhhh Etsy is a special place
And really nothing co-o-ould replaaaceee it!
So keep Etsy dot com in mind,
And I hope that one day that's
Where I'll fiiind you!

Etsyyyy is filled with cool stuff
You will love
A greeting card, and a handbag
A necklace, and some vintage gloves!

Oh so ma-any peoplego
To etsy dot com
why, oh why, don't yoooouuu?!!!

HAPPY ETSY DAY!!!!! :-)

April 23, 2009 at 8:44 p.m. HugsandHolidays

Etsy Day - WOW! Are the banks going to be closed? I need to create a gift bag for "etsy day". Love the idea...

April 23, 2009 at 10:58 p.m. kathiroussel

April 23, 2009 at 10:59 p.m. kathiroussel

Trop bien cette idée de Etsy Day !

I dressed in orange, spread the word to friends and relatives (a bunch signed up, too! they loved this site!) and blogged about it here www.pirillinca-handmade.blogspot.com and on my facebook page (I uploaded a re-interpreted version of the graphic up there and tagged all my friends there!).

I became a spammer! But for a good cause... ; )

I wore etsy merchandise and plastered my car with the signs yesterday. And at my school we have writing boards in all the bathroom stalls so people don't write on the walls and I put the etsy message from the car signs on every single one!! The women's at least, lol
And I made a youtube video (my very first EVER it took my like 6 hours to edit) documenting my efforts. Go Etsy!! :)

I printed out the "did you Etsy today?" sign and taped it inside the back window of my vw bug... I parked it in a great, well exposed spot. I handed out moo cards to everyone I met...grocery clerks, shopping mall funky folks... Had a great day doing it! Etsy day was the best for me as I had an item featured on the front page and 3 featured in the gift guides section...You gotta LOVE this place!!!!!!!!! I want to share the LOVE<3

Hi...Funny I was so excited about my etsy site I mentioned it to my G.P (Docter) during a recent visit and I believe she has been on recently madly searching for gifts!!! I know it is a little sad but I guess word gets spread around in the weirdest of ways... Happy Etsy Day...Looking forward to some creative ETSY Marketing!!!

Danielle, I loved your video!! What a great effort by everyone! I left up my sign and plan to keep it up so for those who missed it, it's not too late.

Did you know there is a great video about etsy on youtube---it's kind of like a commercial---I think we should twitter this around on monday..hehehe
