Hello! Etsy seller here.

I make geeky-themed bath and body products from scratch, with an emphasis on perfumes. Although I don't remember how I found you, I used onlinelabels.com from the beginning; It took a few tries to find the perfect type of label for my items. If you make anything similar, splurge a little and go with the Weatherproof Gloss line! They look absolutely professional and haven't failed me yet. There's my tip. ;)

I started a candle shop on Etsy (https://www.etsy.com/shop/BraveMade) just about 2 months ago in January. While candles on Etsy aren't exactly unique, I'm working to get some unique fragrances. I'm definitely looking to hear what methods everyone is using to find new customers. I have a Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/bravemade) and through paid advertising have managed to get a tiny, but decent following.

So, what methods have you found successful in finding new customers? Also, something unrelated, but have you found a particular style of product descriptions to be more successful?

Looking forward to hearing everything!

Hey BraveMade,

"Also, something unrelated, but have you found a particular style of product descriptions to be more successful?" - BraveMade

Actually, keywords (or tags) are VERY IMPORTANT when trying to build your views to your shop. I've created this video to help teach folks how to properly find & use keywords efficiently to building more traffic/views to their listings:

This video is PURE CONTENT, so I hope you can learn a lot from watching it! Let me know what you think. :)
