Etsy Marketing

A few words of advice, you can market and pay fees on various websites to market your Etsy Shop, do you really need to do this, NO!
If your pictures aren't clear and bright... Who wants to squint their eyes to look at pics, people with just move on.
Your banner and avatar should be as professional and appealing as your business.
Your profile and shop announcement should use keywords about everything you offer in your shop such as style, colors, shape, products. Leave out all the stuff about your personal life, unless it gets to the point about your business.
Promote catchy titles and try to leave out "and, but, or, I, they, the, a, etc.." really focus on the product, color, shape, material, handmade, or vintage.
Don't forget the tags, how are people going to find you if you don't use key tags and try to use all 13, as well as the material tags.

Vintage Jewelry on Etsy

Well lets face it, The big vintage and antique jewelry rage has sure taken a big turn towards the sky. A few years ago most of this stuff was classified as old junk. Now jewelry collectors and sellers find it hard to push our way through the crowded jewelry tables at flea markets and yard sales. The bidding at auctions is downright catfighting and ebay vintage jewelry stores are making bigger profits. Brooches and Rings are flying while furniture and dinnerwares look like there standing still.
In today's tough economy it's hard to buy the diamond's and gold all shiny and new at the high end jewelry stores, so have we resorted to vintage and second-hand jewelry as our taste for luxury? I wonder.
