This was an extremely helpful Etsy video (I learned a lot) - Thank you for sharing.

The copyright infringement and intellectual property violators will never stop as long as they’re making a ton of money and making Etsy tons of money. Etsy won’t stop them.

"You can't use Mickey Mouse in the [product listing] title just because [you feel] it's just a mouse. And yes, this includes fan art." Right?!? Great summary for beginner Etsy shop owners. Great reminders for sellers to adapt, test, and change to be successful business owners.

The single biggest thing you must do is develop several income streams, never rely on a single outlet. the second thing is to accept change. the third thing is build resilience with savings. Can you fund yourself for a week/month/year? all good stuff in this video as usual, but hard going before breakfast!
