I tried launching side hustles before, but my Etsy store was differentMy side-hustle journey wasn't easy. From wood crafts to embroidery, I was open to starting an Etsy store for anything, and I was constantly brainstorming, watching YouTube videos, and reading blogs by successful Etsy sellers. I started working overtime in January to save up money to put into my Etsy store. I knew customer service was something I could control and use to differentiate my store, so I committed to providing the best customer service. Prioritizing customer service helped me gain an audience quicklyMay was the first month my business was open.
