I’ve just seen this online and had to share it. This comes from official Etsy news. If you remember, just before Christmas at the end of Q3, Etsy announced they were teaming up with OpenAI to allow people to shop directly through ChatGPT. That’s still happening, but they’re now also teaming up with Copilot to do something similar. I’ve linked the document, along with a helpful discussion I created using NotebookLM. I genuinely love these kinds of conversations 🤍 Honestly, this makes me feel like we’re in a really good place with Etsy, especially for digital products, as they move towards this kind of buying model. It also feels very true to how we’re already starting to shop. At Christmas, this is exactly how I did my initial research for a laptop for Luke. I used very specific requirements and let AI narrow things down for me. So it makes sense that this will extend to everything else too. I’m curious what you think 🤔 Do you see this as a good thing or a bad thing for Etsy sellers, both digital and physical? And what do you think this means for the high street and small businesses more broadly? I’d love to hear your thoughts 🧐

Hey lovely creators 👋 Before I build out the full Foundation section of our training space (it’s coming, I promise!), I want to take a moment to connect properly. The truth is, the best way for me to create resources that really help you is to understand exactly where you’re at right now. We’re all on this Etsy journey together, but we’re not all at the same stop on the line. 🚂 So I’d love for you to share a little about your story below: ✨ Where are you right now in your Etsy journey? (just starting, few listings, growing your shop, etc.) ✨ What’s one thing you feel you need most help with right now? (SEO, confidence, mockups, consistency, etc.) ✨ And what do you hope being part of this community will bring you? Your answers will not only help me shape the upcoming lessons and challenges, they’ll help you connect with others who get it. Here’s your little action step: 💡 Comment below with your 3 answers. 💡 Read one other member’s reply and leave an encouraging word. That’s how we start building real connections here. Because the moral of this space is simple: 👉 You don’t have to do this alone. We’re here to learn, share and grow together, one steady, confident step at a time.

I wanted to gently share something new I’m testing 🤍 Over the last few months, I’ve had lots of quiet conversations with people who just needed reassurance, clarity, or someone to talk things through with. That’s where I love helping most. So I’m trialling a few 1:1 support options — calm, flexible, and designed for real life. ✨ Voxer Support ✨ Zoom Strategy Call ✨ Zoom + Voxer All are offered around school and family life, and at intro pricing while I test this format. If you’d like to read more about each option, I’ve added full details in the Supporting You 👉 https://www.skool.com/etsy-digital-creators-hub-9602/classroom/592f65a2 No pressure at all — if you’re unsure what would help you most, just message me 🤍
