"This is the most comprehensive and helpful Etsy course I've ever taken."

Melanie from SpeechieThriving

"The tips are straightforward and to the point. Many of my 8,000+ sales on Etsy is because of these strategies."

Andy from UnearthedGemstones

There's no better time to start your Etsy shop than now in 2023

You deserve to make what you love for a living, and Etsy is a great place to do that.

But you probably already know that. What's stopping you is one of these roadblocks:

Every time you try to start an Etsy shop, you get stuck and frustrated because there are just too many moving pieces: SEO, photos, marketing, ads, …

You compare yourself with Etsy sellers with thousands of sales, and you don't know the path of how to get from 0 to where they are.

Your Etsy shop is not getting views and sales. You’ve tried all the ‘tips’ from free YouTube videos and all the ‘best’ research tools out there, but nothing works.

I've been through these stages on my Etsy journey, it's not a fun feeling to have...

If you're facing any of these roadblocks,

then GYC Etsy Academy is made for you.

I absolutely love everything about the GYC Etsy Academy! I'm a new shop, and this is the most comprehensive and helpful Etsy course I've ever taken. I'm still halfway through the course, but I've applied the strategies and tips given, and it's brought my shop to 100 sales within 1 month!! The course is jam-packed with information that covers all ranges of topics from how to make your listings look clickable to how to use email marketing for Etsy ... This course is worth every penny! I highly, highly recommend it if you're looking to grow your Etsy shop and watch those sales come in!

Hey there!

Top 1% & 6-figure Etsy seller | Combined sales over 16,200+ | 4.9 star rating average with over 2,400+ reviews

Same as you, I started with 0 views, 0 sales and $0 in revenue. I didn't know anything about SEO, marketing, conversion rate, photography, social media and any other skills that are crucial to success on Etsy.

I didn't know how to sell but I had a dream and a drive to make it work on Etsy.

I wanted to stop trading time for money. I wanted to be my own boss. I wanted to make a living doing what I love.

Because of that, I didn't stop experimenting and testing all the ways to make my Etsy business work.

And one day...

After countless testing and experiments, I have built a repeatable and actionable framework that gives you a clear path to success.
‍
I'm making a full-time income on Etsy from my shops. Transforming from ‘struggling to get sales’ to ‘thriving with a profitable Etsy business and a free lifestyle’.
‍
This framework doesn’t just work for me. It has helped many other struggling Etsy sellers from different niches to grow their business.
‍
So I know it can help you too.
‍
I want to inspire you to live your dream. I want to share what I’ve learned over the years with you. And I want to help you reach the same level of success on Etsy.

I've developed a unique framework for getting traffic on Etsy and converting it to sales. I want to help you achieve the same success on Etsy.

For you, selling on Etsy doesn't have to be this difficult.

GYC taught me the skills I needed to take advantage of trends. Quick story of my shop: At the beginning of the pandemic, Zoom exploded. I knew the niche for Zoom background was a great opportunity and I knew I had to jump on it. I set up the shop in just 2 days thanks to the methods in the course. And boom! Orders keep coming in and I can’t be happier!
Although it has slowed down, the shop is at almost 1,000 sales. Not too bad for a quick 2 day project! Passive income is true and I’m super ready to spot the next big trend and start a big Etsy business again thanks to GYC. Thank you so much!

I appreciate that you answer emails. And that your course is affordable. You don't oversell or send endless streams of emails selling other people's stuff. It feels more real and authentic and that's hard to find. You offer solid info, as well.

GYC is the first Etsy course I ever signed up for and I am grateful I did. I had almost given up on finding help at affordable cost then I came across GYC. It covered a lot of topics already ... I still have to implement all I learned but it has helped me a lot.

Your Questions Answered

I'm a newbie. Will this still be useful for me?

Yes! Many of our students didn't have experience on Etsy when they first joined. Our roadmap will be perfect for you to build a strong Etsy business step-by-step. It covers all the topics you need to know including SEO, marketing, branding, pricing, and many more.

I already have an Etsy shop. Will the information be too basic?

Not at all. The strategies you'll find in GYC Etsy Academy will be more advanced than the Etsy Seller Handbook or other free online content.

As you’ve seen from my blog, our free guides are already more in-depth than most paid courses out there. In GYC Etsy Academy, you will discover growth strategies that are advanced yet easy-to-follow. They all aim to boost your Etsy sales.

Will the courses be the same as what I can find online?

Not at all. GYC Etsy Academy courses are unique and exclusive, and aren't available elsewhere. You will get strategies that are more in-depth and practical than others in the market.

We skip the empty advice like “take better photos” or “focus on your SEO" here. And give you concrete strategies and frameworks like "the 3-step approach to finding low-competition, high demand keyword".

Were the courses written a long time ago, and are they up-to-date?

Etsy changes all the time. And so does GYC Etsy Academy.

All courses are constantly updated to make sure you have the best information available to get ahead of the competition. You will get notified when courses are updated.

What's the format of the courses?

Courses in GYC Etsy Academy are in text format with images to supplement the strategies.

How does the feedback from the Etsy expert work?

I want to help you succeed on Etsy. Once you join, you'll be able to ask me directly for feedback about your Etsy shop. And I'll give you my best tailored, actionable advice.

Due to the high volume of questions, there is a 3-question limit for each message. Message turnaround time is about 2-5 days at the moment.

How long will I have access and do you offer refunds?

You will have 1 year of unlimited access to all materials in GYC Etsy Academy immediately after you sign up. All updates within the year are included. You can learn at your own pace and take as little or as much time as you need.

Due to the nature of digital products, unfortunately refunds will not be provided. Please read through this sales page carefully to get an idea of the content you'll receive in GYC Etsy Academy, and feel free to reach out to me if you have any additional questions at growingyourcraft [at] gmail [dot] com
