Get back to the making.

You opened an Etsy shop to share what you made. Not to become a shop manager. Let EtsyPal do the schlep for you.

The baker problem

You love baking, so you open a bakery.

Then it turns out running a bakery is mostly everything except the baking: customers, receipts, what's in stock and what's running out. Bit by bit, the joy drains away.

An Etsy shop works the same way. The thing you made is finished and you're proud of it. Then come the photos, colours, pricing, titles, tags, shipping profiles, processing times. Every product, every time. The heavy part isn't the work. It's the ugh.

EtsyPal's goal is to take the ugh away.

“I started my shop because my kid loved the letter blocks I made for her. I wanted to share that joy with others. But going from a thing I made to a published listing feels so daunting. Photos. SEO. Short video. Variants. Shipping. So much to think about!”

The market is our muse

You make things for people. The market is how they find them.

You opened the shop because you want what you made to reach people.

My fuel is the stories. A review saying their kid practises with my letters every day. An aunt beaming because her niece loved her graduation gift and wants to take it to college with her. Yours might be the income, or the joy of seeing what you made in someone else's home.

But keeping up with the market is its own schlep: understanding what's selling, what buyers search for, how your listing looks next to everyone else's. EtsyPal helps with that too.

The helpers

Small tools that take the ugh off your plate.

Each helper does one job.

Vacation Processing

Go on vacation without tanking your SEO.

Recovering your SEO after using "vacation mode" in Etsy can take months. EtsyPal can change your processing times: once when you leave, and once when you get back.

Holiday Optimization

The right words for every holiday, on time.

Plan your listings' holiday wording in advance. EtsyPal switches it in when the season starts, and back the day you can no longer ship in time.

Photo help

Photos that look like you meant them.

Product photography can be such a pain. EtsyPal starts helping from the get-go, by generating a shot list for you. After the shoot, it can fix all kinds of issues, from zoom, crop and skew correction all the way to colour matching.

Listing Maker

List it the same day you finish making it.

Which photos to keep and which to reshoot, which colours to offer, what to charge once fees and failures are counted, then a title, tags and description.

Scout

See what's selling so you can make it better.

Before you spend a weekend making something, see what's really moving for a holiday, an occasion or a kind of product.

Auditor

See your shop the way a buyer does.

Your photos in the search grid, on a phone, next to the competition. Then your shop as a whole, checked against what Etsy itself says matters.

Want in?

I'm building this for myself, but would love to help some other folks. We're building a small community of people who are eager to get rid of the schlep, and provide feedback.

Tell us a little about you and your shop. We'll write when there's something real to try, and never on a schedule.

Only EtsyPal sees this. We'll never share or sell it.

Got it. Thank you.

We'll be in touch when there's a seat at the table. In the meantime, go make something.
