If you’re an artistic person, selling your wares on www.etsy.com might be
a good option if you’re looking to raise cash quickly. If you’re unfamiliar
with the site, it’s a place where artisans can sell various homemade goods in a
thick, online marketplace.
Some important things to note about Etsy are the following: 1)
everything you sell must be something you made yourself; 2) it costs 20 cents
to list an item for 4 months; and 3) each sale will incur a 3.5% transaction
fee.
As far as what you can sell on Etsy goes, hot sellers include pieces of
art, bags and purses, candles, toys for children, crocheted items, holiday
decorations, quilts, vintage pieces, and wedding decorations.
For a basic overview of the “dos and don’ts” of selling on Etsy, you
should view the guide they’ve placed online here: http://www.etsy.com/dosdonts.php.
While there are many ways to make money with Etsy, the experts suggest
that
building items around a single theme and specializing is one of the best
ways to get noticed and to sell items. This is usually a better option that
creating a lot of disparate items in different categories.
Overall, Etsy provides a good opportunity to make money online fast; and
while doing something you enjoy already. However, if you’re not particularly
artistic or don’t have an interest in crafts, then Etsy may not be a good
option for you.
