Never give up !
I started with Etsy in 2021 and sold less than 5 digital planners in a year... but came back in january of 2022 with the idea of doing custom posters for Valentines Day ! It immediately took off and for a while I lived a dream, and trully started to believe that it was the begginin of something great.
One week later got a mail from Etsy saying they had to shut down my shop to check my identity. But even if my business closed only for an hour, it ruined everything. I lost my ranking and went from 500+ views a day with multiple orders to 4-5 views a day and no order. It was hard and felt really unfair.
I decided to continue and worked my ass off, every little free time I had, mutliple hours everyday, to upload new designs, improve my SEO, descriptions, quality, photos. Learned everything I could on Etsy, algorythms and selling online.
But I had no results. No orders for months. Traffic stayed under 10views a day. Nothing worked.
I started to loose faith and was about to give up, when I finally had a new order. It gave me the hope I needed to believing again that this could work, against my family and friends criticts that I was just "loosing my time". I made a promess to myselft : I will not stop until I prove them wrong ! If others make it, why could'nt I ?
Now, every order, every single one of you that decides to trust me helps me to get closer to my goal, and my dream : traveling the world in van, working remotely on my passion from all around the globe.
