    Shopify sounds like a better site for someone with an established business that now wants another site to sell on and can bring business too
  • Another fantastic video Kate and a useful video because I am considering setting up a online store either through Etsy or Shopify and because i am only starting out Etsy sounds like the best option. Love 🥰 the video and love 💞 Kate.

  • @jimmyconnor2752

  • @Ttmara88
    Hi do you have to paid the ad fee if you are promoting your etsy shop on your on social media or just if they promote you
  • @silkemueller1391
    i know online shopify is adjusting local taxes. is etsy doing the same? i have international customers that are interested in my products but im terrified of taxes
  • @dhebert111
    So...could you set up a Shopify market, and one with Etsy, and link the two? Thanks. This was a great video, and it's appreciated.
  • @isabear478
    it would be hard to find your shopify unless your marketing and putting your self on etsy pintrest youtube
  • Once you are established on etsy is it wise to switch over to shopify? And would it be easy transition?
  • Hi guys, overall i think shopify better but one detail is stopping me decide which platform should start selling, so when customer goes to etsy, they know, its a big corporation and no chance of getting scammed and buys freely, but when you have shopify, customer goes to random website, dont know its scam or not. Isnt it big dealbreaker?

    With Etsy your store can get suspended anytime and with no clear reasons. Plus you can't build a long term business because you always depend on Etsy.
