Get More Etsy Sales

I am consistently looking for new ways to get more Etsy sales.Instagram is now letting you share multiple photos in one post. Not only that but Etsy is slowly rolling out the option to list items and set variations in not only style but price as well.

Yesterday Instagram shared some big news that I think will definitely benefit all of us Etsy Shop owners! Instagram is now letting you share multiple photos in one post. Not only that but Etsy is slowly rolling out the option to list items and set variations in not only style but price as well. Cool Right!?

These new options open the doors to a whole new marketing perspective.  Let’s check out ways that you can use these new capabilities.

Share Product Variations

This is one of my favorite new ways to use the new Instagram options.  As I am showing you here, I sell digital downloads and have two different cover options.

When I do go share this on Instagram.   I can display my two cover options and people can get a better idea of what it is they are buying.  I can also go and add different pages that are part of the same planner or set.

If you are selling a shirt.  You can take different angle shots of the shirt or showcase the different color options. Think of something you would buy online like on Amazon and how you would click on the pictures to see the details.

Share Product In Use

When you share a picture of how your product looks on, or how it can be used, you transport that person to physically imagine how they would be using it!

They can’t touch your item in person, but if you are using it, they imagine how they can use it as well. For this, I will use as an example a lipstick. If you see just a lipstick in the product image you can’t get a real idea of what it looks like on. Most lipsticks that are for sale also share an image of a model wearing the lipstick. That gives you a better idea of what it will look like.

Share  Video

I know many of you are reluctant to share video but the cool thing about video is that you don’t need to be in front of the camera!  Share your process, share product movement, share a funny video.

You can also make a longer video and share it in snippets.

Etsy Makes It Easy

Etsy has also rolled out some new cool features.  Sellers now have the ability to set prices and quantities for item variations on listings.

 

So many cool new things! Are you planning on using these new tools to market your Etsy business?  Share your Instagram below so I can check you out and see how you get more Etsy sales.
