Ohh didn’t realise re: synching Square that’s a great - will have to remember this when I do a market next time, Also thanks for explaining the Offsite ads - my last order was from an offsite ad & didn’t understand why I was charged as I thought they had added me to run ads but clearly I confused myself re: paying for ads Love the way you’ve recently been doing your videos to - really like it.

If you sell materials/supplies and not handmade items - then, yes, Etsy fees are too high. When you sell materials, there is the MSRP, and if you try to charge more, no one will purchase your items. Your competition is selling exactly the same items, at exactly the same price, or perhaps a bit less. But there is also the MAP. The Minimum Advertised Price that the manufacturer will allow you to charge. Where the problem is - the 12% FORCED off-site ad fee. My profit margin in 8-10% (mostly because my shipping costs run about 22-25% of my revenue). So, whenever I have a sale from an off-site ad, I take LOSS on the sale. This month, 67% of my sales were from off-site ads. Yes, with off-site ad fees, Etsy fees are farTOO HIGH for sellers of supplies/materials.

I’m planning on abandoning the platform in the near future. I can’t afford to sell on there anymore, specially with the offsite ads. I have sales that lose 35% of their profit now because of the offsite ad stuff. I can’t afford that loss so I have to raise my prices but then no one will buy from me because it’s too expensive.

So the auto renew ? I may have missed this if I have 4 different types of soaps and I also have different options of those 4 as well (that will be in the drop down options) like flavors of soaps that are made different ways When I set up auto renew for those 4 since I can remake these products and the auto renew I set up already do they stay on there for 4 months then Etsy renews it and charges me the 20cents for each of the 4 again ? Sorry that part had me a little confused. Thank you so much for making this helpful video

Etsy listings last 4 months and cost you 20cents when you first list your products and the same again for every renewal after that.
