Rise and shine!This week, the U.S. population may no longer be growing, we’re putting fashion forward, your promos are hurting your bottom line, and the new shop checklist for August is now available!
Marmalead needs your help. We know you have burning questions about GROWING your Etsy business.
And we know that if it were easy, anyone could put a little paint on a rock and start selling it online.
But you know it’s not that simple. When it comes to starting your own online business there’s a to-do list about a mile long. And even once you get up and running, that to-do list may change, but it doesn’t get any shorter.
So, who do you turn to when a question about your shop pops up? Online forums are great, but it can be a pain sifting through the misinformed opinions that follow Facebook groups around like the plague.
So turn to us. Marmalead can help you, but you need to help us first. Those burning questions you posted on that forum last week? Submit them to us instead. Drop us a line about any question that comes to mind, and we’ll answer it during an upcoming video on our YouTube channel.
Next week starts the beginning of August, which means summer is at its peak. But don’t let these heat domes get you down, the fall season isn’t far off now. Our August shop checklist has been designed with an abstract theme, as we begin to wind down during the last days of summer. We’re officially looking ahead to the upcoming months which will usher in fall and all things autumn. Remember, now is the time to start thinking ahead to the upcoming season change and the holidays it brings!
You asked for it, we delivered! We’re continuing to add to our comprehensive list of some of the most popular keywords on Etsy in 2021 (so far). Many of our readers have expressed an interest to know more about popular fashion keywords on Etsy since that’s where they already operate.
So we sat down with the Marmalead tools and pulled some research in this category. The keywords we found today are some of the most popular keywords on Etsy right now, specific to fashion of course.

What started as therapy for his son, 92-year-old Seattle man, Don Croghan has been stocking local stores with his handmade fishing lures since 1985. “There was a little tackle store close to us, I started tying leaders for him,” Don Croghan said. Since then, he’s been stocking about a dozen marine stores in the Seattle area.
Don jokes that his workshop is about 20’x20′, and a place you wouldn’t want to go inside, but he knows where just about everything is. We understand what you mean, Don. Those with creative minds tend to be a bit messier, but it’s true what they say about finding inspiration in the chaos 😊
We can learn a thing or two from Don. “Not only do lures have to catch the fish’s attention, they have to catch the buyer’s eye. Men tend to like red lures,” Don Croghan said. “I like red.”
He plans to continue selling Lucky Leaders until he’s 100.
Are you kidding me? You’re worth a lot more than $1 an hour. But if you’re underpricing your products, you’re undervaluing your work and making less money than you should.
If you’re putting in long hours, working hard, but not pocketing as much money as you’d hoped, then you need The Pricing Guide from our friends and affiliate partners over at A Cake To Remember.
