As many of you may know, in my other – non-Wedding Skulls life – I work as a braille transcriber and copywriter. I write business copy – websites and blogs and newsletters and catelogue copy and ebooks. It’s a great job – I’m always learning new and interesting things, and I get to work with cool indie small businesses and non profits.

Over on my copywriting blog I post articles I’ve written that might interest the businesses and non profits I work for. Today I’ve posted 5 Tips for Etsy Business Success. I know several Etsy sellers  read this blog, so I’m posting here in case you might be interested in my Etsy observations. In upcoming weeks, I’ll be posting more Etsy advice columns and my new Etsy Copywriting Package.

I’ve been researching Etsy like mad over the last few months, partly because of all the sellers I feature on Wedding Skulls, partly because I’m thinking of introducing a line of Wedding Skulls products at a later date (don’t get too excited. It won’t be till the end of this year, at least!) and partly because I’m drawing up an Etsy Copywriting Package especially for beginning or struggling Etsy sellers, and I want to get everything just right before I launch that later this month.

I’ve done copywriting for Etsy sellers before, but this Etsy package will include a special price (cheaper than my usual copywriting prices) and take into account the specific restrictions/nature of Etsy. Instead of being SEO optimized, copy will be Etsy-optimized, telling your buyers EXACLTY what they want to know.

It will include Shop announcements, policy pages, profile, product descriptions, and some special extra features which I won’t be revealing just yet. All pieces of the package are interchangeable, so if you only want product descriptions, for instance, I can do those and the price comes down – but you still get the extras.

I’m really excited about this – it represents a step forward in my copywriting career towards working the the kinds of businesses I love supporting. I’ll be updating Wedding Skulls as soon as I’ve finalized the Package, but in the meantime, if you want to be first in line or are curious about what copywriting could do for your business, contact me at steff@small-business-copywriter.com

That’s all the business talk over for today, I promise. Come back tomorrow for a really special post! Steff
