OMG – Woman Makes Almost $1 Million A Year On Etsy

Charles Lenoir / September 24, 2015

How can anyone make almost one million dollars from selling handmade socks and scarves???

Well…

Ask Alicia Shaffer

Alicia Shaffer is a married of mother-of-three and lives in Livermore, California.

Shaffer is the founder of Three Birds Nest Designs, online retail business that sells handmade accessories for women.

She earns $65,000 a month from selling handmade headbands, socks and scarves on Etsy.

She is the one of the most successful sellers on Etsy, an online marketplace.

She has no background in fashion but has worked with leather for years.

Three Birds Nest Design is Shaffer’s third business. Her first business was a baby product line and the second was a brick-and-mortar store — both ended and she and her family found themselves in debt.

In the beginning, this was out of necessity, I needed to make money to pay for financial loss that we had had, I didn’t want to lose our house, and I have three kids I needed to provide for.” Says Alicia Shaffer

Shaffer’s entrepreneurial spirit led her to Etsy and says she saw it as a chance to try again, and not make the same mistakes she made in her other businesses.

According to Wikipedia,

Etsy is a peer-to-peer e-commerce website focused on handmade or vintage items and supplies, as well as unique factory-manufactured items.”

Etsy has over 30 million registered users, one million sellers and over one billion in total annual transactions thus far.

Shaffer originally just wanted to bring in some extra money to help out and started selling boho-inspired hats and scarves through her online shop, ThreeBirdNest.

But in the first few weeks after its December launch, ThreeBirdNest made 90 sales. Shaffer credits much of the traffic to Pinterest—she pinned her items.

Still,it was absolutely mind boggling. I thought it was a complete fluke, that it would stop after the holidays were over.” says Alicia Shaffer

Shaffer told Business Insider,

I would have been thrilled to make $100 to $200 a month to pay for my daughter’s dance lessons….

I was really just trying to make a couple sales a week because I had lost confidence in my ability to start a business.”

Now through its independent website and Etsy shop, ThreeBirdNest receives an average of 150 orders per day, with most orders consisting of three items. Around the holidays, that number goes up to 700 to 1,200 orders per day. In January of 2015, the business raked in a total of $128,000 in sales. In the three years since its launch, it has made 100,000 sales on Etsy alone.

Shaffer believes that to be successful one must ‘eat, sleep and breathe’ their brand, and says she keeps going because of the love and passion her customers have for her items. Alicia’s business has skyrocketed to success to the point that her husband retired early from his job as a fire chief to help run the house, she told Yahoo.

Alicia Shaffer is the face of a growing trend in business. It’s the rise of the Internet entrepreneur.

Network Marketing Tips

Why Begging For Prospects is A Business Killer

Charles Lenoir / August 27, 2014

If you want to INSTANTLY kill your network marketing business then beg for business!

What exactly do I mean?

Inexperienced or improperly trained network and internet marketers doing any and everything they possibly can to get a new customer or sponsor someone into their business.

I am seeing this more and more and quite frankly it bothers me! Little do they know they begging for business is actually killing their business.

Not sure if you are begging for prospects and killing your business, here is a quick test:

Are you calling, emailing and soliciting your friends and family members to buy products from you or join your business?

Are you promoting your business on social media several times a day throughout the week?

Are you always posting before and after photos and making outrageous claims about results or income? Making false claims…turn $15 into $50,000 in two weeks

Well if you answered yes, to either one of those questions your network marketing future might be in trouble.

Not only are you killing your business by operating this way but your are also damaging your reputation.

If you want to be seen as an network marketing industry leader you must learn to protect your reputation.

Industry leaders brand themselves and use strategies like attraction marketing to build relationships up over time. They understand the importance of branding, reputation, and credibility.

They know these things build trust with their prospects. They know that reputation means everything – and they work hard to maintain theirs.

Industry leaders DO NOT beg for prospects!

They DO NOT pitch their products or business opportunity all the time on social media or to their close family or friends.

Why? Because they understand that most people really don’t care about their business nor their product even if the makeup, juices, vitamins, wraps, potions and lotions work.

Every single person you come across is NOT a prospect!

When you promote your business to any and everybody in the manner described above it just makes you seem desperate. What makes you think being desperate is an income strategy?

What you are doing comes from a lack of education and not understanding what it really takes to be a success in network marketing.

Unfortunately most if not all network marketing companies do a very poor job of properly educating and training the people that join their company. Many still teach tired old marketing methods that no longer work.

If you’re new to the industry, then your objective should be to educate yourself! A vast majority of your time should be going towards learning. If you’ve been in network marketing for a while, then its about increasing your value. But whatever you do don’t beg for prospects to join your business or buy your products.
