    I tried them twice and bailed because the juice just wasn’t worth the squeezing over there.   I know others that have done great but imho it is a crafters world there.

    i May be wrong, been wrong before and figure I will be wrong several more times but just sharing my opinion

    Any suggestions for other selling platforms.   Do you see my signs selling on Ebay?   I'm just not sure which way to go.

    That's always been my problem.  I can make pretty cool products and everyone loves them. I just can't figure out how to sell them.

    Just got a email that prices are going up on fees I set up a shop about a month ago but i didn't realize how cheap others were selling decals and shirts hard to compete with the others but what your selling custom signs look nice.

     

    Yep just saw that email.   They jumped from 3.5% to 5%.  that's a pretty big jump and they tried to sugarcoat it by saying they're adding all these new features.   

    But they didn't go into detail that these new features would require a monthly subscription.  Fun.

  2. After searching here it's been awhile since Etsy has been mentioned.  Alot has changed with how etsy works.  

    I'm going into month 2 of my etsy store and I'm not sure I've got things set up right.   I'm only getting about 3-5 views a day and I'm paying for about half of those views by promoting listings.   I know it's a bit early to be expecting anything big but I was hoping for alittle more traffic and maybe 1 order for father's day.  

    Would anyone be willing to coach me and give me some advice?  

    Here's my store www.etsy.com/shop/GoCCreations

     

    Any other selling platforms I should be thinking about?  I was thinking about maybe a website but I'm not sure I want to spend $30/month for one if I can't even get a single order on etsy.

  3. I'm sorry I never made the time to take a drive down there to meet him and his beloved mustang. We talked about it.   

    I missing seeing all the work he did for his veteran group.  

    I remember seeing an article about the story of him getting wounded.  Anyone remember where that was?

  4. If your customers are going to be that picky then you should really invest in color guides from each manufacture.   It's the only way to truly get as close of a match as possible.

    I’d keep my titan for bigger jobs but again I’m only a at home operation type of guy on my free time. I have a small base of customers but nothing crazy. So it’s more for wanting to upgrade. Money I’m not worried about I enjoy this field a lot and some day hope to learn enough to open my own small shop. 

    I don't see your reasoning..............

    Why waste your time with 2 cutters.   If you want to upgrade "UPGRADE" to a cutter you're going to be happy with.   1 that'll do everything you want.  Small -> Large vinyl.   

    I hear they you want to upgrade but you don't really want to upgrade if you're still planning on using the titan.   You're going to get the baby graphtec and see how well it works and wish you had just bitten the bullet and bought the CE6000-60. Trust me.

  6. Well..........   He only has 2 posts.   

    The 1st one was back in Sept. where he gave a brief intro and said how much he "love to help people out".

    2nd post is 5 months later where he wants something in the middle of the night with a 4 hour turn around time.   

    I'm not surprised if he doesn't come back.

  7. First thought is completely forget about offering 651.  You want to do a professional job offer the correct vinyl.   At minimum use 751

    For me I'd be around $200-250 for material and about 2 hours of time@$60/hour.   So my range is $320-370 for the job.

    You didn't mention removal of any old graphics so that is not included in the price.  

    This is assuming there isn't much travel involved.
