I see it every year - Etsy sellers scramble in mid-November, wondering why their Christmas products aren’t selling… And it feels like a few others seem to have had a crystal ball and been able to predict whats going to be popular. Here’s the truth: You can’t know exactly what the Christmas trends will be but there are places you can find information to make an educated decision. Let’s talk about how to find Christmas digital product trends before they’re trending. 1. Watch

Here’s the truth no one tells you…By the time Black Friday actually arrives , a huge portion of your audience has already spent their money . 💸 They’ve been tempted for weeks. They’ve jumped on “early access” offers. Their carts have been filled, emptied, refilled, and emptied again  long before the big day even begins. If you want an Early Black Friday strategy that actually converts, the key is launching before your audience has already spent their money. 👉 Don’t wait. St

Age of Empires, Fable, The Sims  — those worlds were my happy place.(And yes, I absolutely  still listen to the soundtracks while I work 😂) Honestly?

November always brings that quiet rush - C

S ometimes the biggest wins come from the smallest tweaks. Over the last couple of months I ran a split test on one of my best-selling products on Etsy. This 2-Minute Etsy Product Image Split Test That Changed Everything. The listings were identical - same title, tags, description, everything - except for one tiny change. One version had a light, creamy background behind a little piece of brown paper in the center. The other? The exact same image, but with that creamy color

When I first landed on Etsy, I honestly thought I’d found home. Digital products were such a wild contrast to working 1-on-1 with design clients. After years of deadlines, revisions, and client expectations, Etsy felt like freedom. And for almost eight years, it became the primary  (and only) income for our little family.
