You may have seen or be aware that Etsy is raising their seller fees again...meaning for every £15 item sold we they take around £2-3 not inc a fee taken on shipping. As my store has grown a little I'm finding these fees are becoming wayyyy more insane even without the rise (£150 in fees last week I think).
Anyway, for US and UK buyers I've opened (and am trialling) shopify! Its waaaaaay more verstile. I have settled on that art but until I'm fixed enough to draw smth better were reverting to Macaron vibes.
A lot of my revenue comes from the Etsy market place so I'm not sure how well shopify will do as atm I'm dying for reach on socials really badly. But I'm hoping this will avoid some major fees? Maybe I'm not sure we'll see
More importantly EU customers are still welcome to buy on Etsy as most sellers need their IOSS number to send to the EU.
This also means I can do patron exclusive drops tho which is cool.
For now I've set up a 15% coupon for the new shop if anyone wants to test it?
