Team Treasury, Wrapping up February

SO EXCITED WE HAVE 50 MEMBERS NOW! Yay!!! As we grow as a team and strengthen our online community, I truly believe we are all going to do awesome things together!  How exciting to work with each other while building and defining all of our creative endeavors- Thanks to SCAD for all of these talented artists to work with :) 


I can't believe we are wrapping up February already!  FYI: I am not sure the details about business taxes in other states, but in CA business taxes are due by MONDAY.  Please double check over the weekend and make sure you have your ducks in a row.

Here are some new Team Treasuries highlighting some of the talented folks from SCAD on our Etsy Team.  You can see all of our new members listed here on Etsy to shop from or you can enter "SCAD" into the search field to find a collection from all of our members.

My Treasury Picks for the week-


Best of luck for everyone this weekend!

Tips for Etsy: Treasury Widgets

Hello Team Members!

Laurel and I have been having so much fun working on the Team and I am so happy to see the growth in membership!!! We have created this blog to promote and help our team members with their Etsy business and I am going to help with a section featuring tips and tricks to maximize your time on Etsy and within the team.

Some useful sites to bookmark are:

CRAFTOPOLIS: http://www.craftopolis.com/  

This site is sooooo helpful and you would be a fool not to bookmark it!  It sets up a calender that shows on each day how many people visit your shop, if you receive a heart(s), and how much money you made daily/ monthly! 

The best feature here for saving time when updating your shop is "Edit Express" where you can  edit price, title, description, and quantity on items in minutes.

Etsy On Sale: http://www.etsyonsale.com/sellers

This site is useful to batch organize your items for sales and it very easy to even set up sales in advance.  You can even use it to change the tags on your items if you haven't tagged SCAD yet ;)

My absolutely favorite site for Etsy users is Craft Cult! http://www.craftcult.com/heartomatic.php

You can see who hearts your items and shows helpful charts that you can use along with your analytics to maximize and analyze your sales.  If you haven't set up analytics in any of your sites- No worries! This helpful site gives you all the information you need :)

Here is my latest Treasury Selection for the Team.  If you haven't tagged your items with "SCAD" you are missing out on an opportunity to get exposure in our treasuries and features,  Please make sure you tag your items as well as put the following text in your shop profile: "I am a proud member of TEAM SCAD + ETSY = LOVE.

The above treasury widget can be created on Craft Cult as well and it is super easy to create!

http://www.craftcult.com/treasury_widget.php?userid=

These widgets are perfect for including on your blog or site promoting your Treasuries and Team.

You can also make a super awesome Shop Widget here too, and we are hoping for a similar one on this blog each month featuring one of our Team Member's Shop :)

Hope this can help!
XOXO,
KC Cooper Sears
