In this tough economy, having extra money coming in can be the difference between getting by and falling through the cracks. And if you have crafting skills, you can use them to bring an income that makes a difference to you, just as this author did when both she and her husband found themselves out of work at the same time.
In "How to Create an Income from Home with a Successful and Profitable Etsy Shop" seller Rebecca Galardo (freehippie) tells you exactly what she did to create an income from home with very basic skills. Rebecca tells you how you can - with little to no experience selling items online - make at least a part-time income with your own products.
Rebecca provides you with shortcuts and tips that can make your selling in the handmade market that much easier:
*Increase your customer base
*Keep your creativity flowing
*Create a shop (or shape the one you have) to attract YOUR loyal customer base
*Avoid the BIGGEST and most prevalent mistake that Etsy Shop Owners (even the SUCCESSFUL ONES) make with customers.
*Create lifetime customer loyalty with ease and increase repeat buyers.
*Simple Shipping & Packaging
*Basics in getting your store's name out (marketing) for little to NO money!
People love to buy handmade and no matter what you make if it’s a product people want, you can learn from this book.
Rebecca Galardo started on Etsy from scratch and learned the hard way. As a seller who became a full-time Etsian not from choice but from necessity, she had to make it work.
Now she wants to help other sellers to create the same (or better) success. Because she wants to help others in the same situation she was in, she's priced this book to help ANYONE who wants to make their Etsy shop successful.

"This is a fantastic book with some great tips for newbies opening up their stores. I have taken some of these tips on board and my sales have increased."
- Mrs. Tracey Kelly
"I purchased this book to download to my android, to add to my collection of reference books, ideal for when on the move. And I'm very pleased I did. Rebecca Galardo writes in a pleasing down to earth manner. Step by step information, not only to do with Etsy, but also various blog sites on how to get your business out there in. You won't be disappointed with this purchase."

"In my opinion there can be nobody better placed to write a book like this one than someone who has actually created and runs their own successful Etsy shop as it is not just theory, it is experience and wisdom being imparted.
When I bought this book I wanted to know what I needed to do to create my own shop, how to make it stand out and how the Etsy environment differed from other online selling environments like eBay and Amazon. The book told me everything I needed to know and more. The author imparts her experiences (both good and bad) in a conversational, easy to read manner and each chapter ends with a check list of things that you should have gained knowledge of within that chapter. I found this to be an excellent system as it prompted me to re-read the parts that needed to sink in more.
This is NOT a recipe book claiming "Do this and you will be successful", it is an honest and open account of what the author did to make HER shop successful from which you can take pointers and advice and apply them to your shop.
An excellent read with excellent advice. I am glad I bought it."
