Handmade Sellers

In this episode, we'll be talking to Margie Grodsky, a talented pottery maker who was able to dramatically increase her sales on Etsy with the help of my Etsy Accelerator course. Since participating in Etsy Accelerator, Margie has gone from 200 to 1445 sales. Etsy Accelerator is a course and a community of successful Etsy sellers who have firsthand knowledge to help other sellers succeed and covers everything from product photography to marketing and SEO.

Margie is the proud owner of MargieGrodskyPottery, offering an array of beautifully crafted and functional stoneware pieces. With a passion for pottery, Margie spends countless hours at her wheel throwing unique pieces, formulating fun new glazes, and firing each piece to perfection at 2200 degrees. Her dedication to quality and detail is evident in each handmade piece, which is 100% crafted by Margie in her home studio. From personalized wedding anniversary bowls to custom dog bowls, Margie's work is not only gorgeous but also dishwasher, microwave, and food-safe.

We'll be delving into the strategies and tactics she learned through the course and how she could apply them to her own business and achieve such impressive results. I'm so excited to share Margie's story with you because it's a great example of the power of the Etsy Accelerator community. Listen to this episode to learn more about Margie's story and how Etsy Accelerator helped her take her handmade business to new heights!

"And anytime I doubt myself, I go to the [Etsy Accelerator] group and throw in any questions. So now I'm more confident, no matter how silly the question is, and then people chime in and say, oh my God, that's just what I was thinking. And then other people are chiming in with answers, and the algorithms change, and Etsy changes stuff all the time. So that's why I've been on it for so many years. I'm still gaining from it."
