Should I run Etsy ads for 6 months and make an update?
I really like the honesty of this video unlike most side hustle YouTubers.
I would like to know how your store is doing now after one year from this challenge
Hi Jensen, I really like your honesty & the pace of your video. Watching your videos are enjoyable! Keep it up!
Not in india
Someone should do this except with AI art that’s not ugly asf
Thank you!
I love your videos
Can’t believe you just showed what actually is a reality…. Wow… u got one follow

C'mon, man, you're bad at math after being Asian
😂😂😂so true😊😊😊 i was there bro
I am selling my prints at Rising Dragon Prints but struggling to sell any.. its a bit demoralising as I spent a long time editing my designs on photoshop. I will not give up though but I am losing money which sucks.
liked your video for being honest and no click bait
NO TO ETSY!!!!!! Do not buy or sell anything in this app! This week I put a complaint before the court with copy to the European Union consumer office and fill forums and websites with bad reviews and my very bad experience. I sold 25 products and when it came time to collect the money they suspended my account and for more than I claim they respond like robots. You owe me almost 800 euros that are from my sales, from my back! Lots of shops selling products from Aliexpress and Shein and they do not suspend the accounts of sellers and those who sell crafts steal us and suspend our accounts! Many sellers say sell handmade things and when you look at photos are things from Aliexpress, Alibaba and Shein that buy and resell 10 and 20 times more expensive: see KAFTANES, kimonos, pareos and bracelets and earrings all resale and there continue and do not suspend accounts!!! They are a bunch of thieves! You can spend months without selling anything and spending time in the store and when you start to sell you suspend your account because a stupid jealous falsely denounces you. Etsy doesn’t bother to investigate or listen for more emails you send. Customer support are mere robots or bots that reply to you with copy and paste the same thing over and over again and you can spend days writing them to see the tests or correct that always respond with the same messages. My last sale was a dress and the customer said he did not receive it and kept the dress and Etsy returned the money having me proof of delivery because everything sent by registered mail with number….
Etsy cares a pear that you prove the order collection, you discount that money and the buyer gets the product for free, terrible! To top it off, full of scammers who flood your mailbox asking for the email, or scanning a QR code or pretending to be Etsy support everything in order to get into your account and access your payment details and bank account. Etsy against this gang of scammers does nothing, there are loads! In short, do not waste your time on this application that you will lose a lot of time, effort, energy and money. My complaint goes and even if it takes months or years to get my money back, I will sow internet with protests and reviews to warn others. FOR THE DEFINITIVE CLOSURE OF ETSY!!!!!!
Excellent video,, I would love to know someones expereince from selling "real" art prints. Personally I won't buy anything that I sniff is AI generated. I can use midsjourney for free as a discord plug in and pretty much create it myself.
I really appreciate your honesty. This is awesome.
It’s this kind of low effort AI garbage that is killing Etsy and places like it. People selling this vapid crap with no effort or substance clogging up the site and drowning out the real art pages that people put work into.
RIP artists. Jerk offs like this are going to ruin everything.

Do you want to know a 'secret' to who is actually making money on Etsy or any of the ecomm platforms?
Here is the secret: people making videos on how to sell on these platforms. Only around 4% makes any real money on them (according to various places I looked for actual data). People selling you a course, people getting a lot of foot traffic (like this video), that is the secret. Content is where the real money is. No offense but a lot of people lie and you can check them with products like Ever bee (no, I am not being paid and I am not an affiliate) but again, you have to pay for these services to reveal actual numbers.
1. Selling prints is more about marketing
2. Title is essential part of getting customers
3. Niches decrease pressure put by competition
Etsy & most those shopfront stores are built to run for Ad sellers .. the whole system is aimed for that.

6month update?

It's not 16$ printing this with ink and museum paper lol

🎯 Key points for quick navigation:
00:00 Selling physical AI art prints on Etsy is an experiment, focusing on generating, printing, and advertising AI art over a 30-day period.
00:14 The creator uses AI art generators like Midjourney and Stable Diffusion; plans to explore popular Etsy art niches such as mid-century modern and abstract art.
01:09 Choosing physical prints over digital for higher profit margins; utilizing Printful's print-on-demand service to simplify workflow.
02:21 Listing requires high-quality visuals, strategic titles, and keywords for visibility; pricing strategy involves varying sizes and profit margins.
03:32 Initial tactics include using perceived discounts to attract customers; an unexpected account suspension disrupts progress temporarily.
04:14 After resolution, the creator focuses on building Etsy presence with 36 listings; organic traffic methods aren't yielding results as anticipated.
05:11 Low niche specificity identified as a possible issue; plans shift towards targeting smaller niches with specific keywords.
06:07 Despite generating numerous listings, no organic sales occur, leading to the decision to run paid Etsy ads as a last resort.
06:36 Running Etsy ads results in the sale of two AI art prints; total revenue is $45.98, but net loss highlights challenges in the business model.
07:27 Conclusion acknowledges that selling AI art on Etsy is challenging, with potential profitability requiring more time and strategic adjustments.
Made with HARPA AI
thanks for the warning!
How much did you spend on Printful? That gets added up too :/
Great video 🔥
You got me and my mates followers for your honesty and breakdown of costs. You are genuine influencer. The rest are just clickbaits. 👏👍
for those trying, it is NORMAL that you don't make any sales in your first couple months. the ones winning are the people who stuck to it and kept going!
selling AI images is just shameless
You need to annunciate your words at end of each sentence. It’s really annoying trying to make out what you’re saying with every sentence tailing off to a mute
If anyone’s looking to get a head start, I’m selling 237 ready-made listings, complete with mockup images and more. Feel free to reach out – my contact details are in my YouTube profile bio
Your crap AI “art” (womp womp) was awful,… customers aren’t stupid
can you tell me image size for that Paper Poster???? coz my images are not fit in there.

I sell digital downloads , one it sells because I can sell it at a lower price because it's cheaper for the customers . How is that you ask. Well if the customer takes it and puts it on canva, it saves them money . But if I do, it's not only I'm I selling, but I have to charge more to cover the canvas and shipping. Digital download: You can choose the size, and most printers will give free shipping, and some will give you a great deal on your next picture. But not all my art is ai . I scan some of my art and sell prints.
Finally a realistic journey
way to be a piece of crap
