When Doing Everything Right Still Doesn’t Work


You’re not failing. You’re just ready for a different approach.

You’ve done all the things.
Updated your photos. Polished your SEO. Tried social media.
And yet… the views are low. The sales feel random.
It’s disheartening — and confusing.

You start wondering: Is it me? Am I missing something?

Here’s what I want you to hear:
You’re not doing it wrong — but you might be doing it in a way that doesn’t fit you.


Why That Happens

Etsy search isn’t built to favor every seller equally.
It’s a system — one that serves the platform first, and performs best when it’s driving their goals: ads, volume, and buyer conversion at scale.

That doesn’t make it bad — it just means it’s not personal.
And trying to “crack it” with more effort won’t always move the needle.


So What Can You Do?

Try shifting from trying harder… to trying different.
Here are 3 places to start:

  1. Zoom in on what feels easy and true.
    What kind of sharing lights you up — storytelling? teaching? process?
  2. Pick one place you can show up without pressure.
    This could be a simple email list, a behind-the-scenes post, or a mini showcase reel.
  3. Design a visibility rhythm that feels doable.
    Not daily hustle — just consistent expression. One post a week. One conversation at a time.

You’ve already proven your dedication.
Now’s the time to create visibility that reflects who you are — not who the algorithm wants you to be.
