mySHOP Voice: Etsy Shop Coach

Etsy tells you what you sold. It doesn't tell you what you kept.

Transaction fees, payment processing, listing fees, offsite ads. Once they've all come out, the number on your dashboard isn't the number in your pocket. MyShop connects to your shop and works out what actually landed, per order, per listing, per month. Then it tells you what to do about it.

WHAT IT DOES

• A coach that's read your books. Ask anything about your shop in plain language, typed or spoken. You get an answer from your own orders, not general Etsy advice you could've found anywhere.

• Real profit, not a guess. The fees come from Etsy's own record of what you paid. So when your coach says a listing is losing you money, it isn't guessing. It knows.

• Listings marked and fixed. Every listing gets a score and a list of what to change. Titles, tags, photos, descriptions. Nothing vague like "improve your SEO".

• Receipts in seconds. Take a photo of a receipt and the details fill themselves in, so your materials count against your profit instead of getting forgotten by the end of the month.

• A weekly to-do you'll actually finish. Your coach picks the few things worth doing this week, based on what your shop is really doing. Add your own to the list too.

• Reports that end in a decision. Month on month, best sellers, slow movers, where the money went. And what to do next.

WHO IT'S FOR

Makers who want to run a proper business without turning into an accountant. If you've ever looked at your best seller and quietly wondered whether it makes you anything at all, this was built for you. You don't need to be good with numbers. That's the whole point.

HOW IT WORKS

Sign in, then connect your shop with Etsy's official sign in. We never see your Etsy password. Your orders and listings sync on their own from there. Access is read only, so MyShop can see your shop but can't change anything in it. Disconnect whenever you like.

One account covers the web at my-shop.co and your phone. Check the morning's orders on your commute, do the proper work at your desk.
