Shopify, Wordpress, Etsy, oh my! If you’ve been stressing over your businesses online forever-home, you’re not alone. It’s a big decision, and it can be scary deciding which platform is best for your business.

Etsy’s ease of use makes it a popular choice when starting out, but it’s important to know the pros and cons before making this important decision.

We’ve both had several businesses on and off Etsy, so join us as we discuss the good, the bad, and the ugly so you can decide if Etsy is the right place for you.

Topics discussed in this episode:

3:00: Is Etsy convenient? How quick is the set up?
4:25: What are the Etsy fees and how to counteract that expense?
9:02: How much traffic does Etsy drive? How much effort do YOU need to put in?
10:58 FREE shipping - can you absorb the cost and should you have to?
21:11: What is the BIGGEST factor that prevents a sale?
23:04: Nicky’s Biggest Draw towards Etsy.
29:35: Who has control over customer experience? You or Etsy?
33:23: 3 most important facts to consider about Etsy.

...and so much more!
