3 Time-Saving Tools Every Etsy Seller Should Use

About this video

Dylan Jahraus shares three tools she says save her hours daily as an Etsy seller, opening with her claim that one product made over $450,000 in two years in her shop. First, Vela for bulk listing edits, longer variation character limits, and transferring listings between shops: she cites pricing of $10/month for up to 250 listings and $20/month at her roughly 918-listing tier (per shop), a 7-day free trial, and transferring 922 listings to another shop in 25 minutes when she sold her brand; Evista is named as a free long-term alternative. Second, Google Sheets (plus Looker Studio dashboards and Zapier as a DIY CRM) for data-driven decisions, illustrated by her floral-letter inventory forecast across 26 letters and five sizes. Third, ManyChat for Instagram/Facebook comment-to-DM automations that send discount links fast, using Etsy’s share-and-save links; she cites 15,000 active conversations and 56,000 contacts in her own account, a 71% click-through rate on one flow, and about $530/month in cost.

Key takeaways

  • Use Vela (or free Evista) for bulk listing edits and cross-shop transfers; Jahraus cites $10-$20/month tiers by listing count
  • Learn Google Sheets seriously: import order data to forecast inventory by variant instead of overstocking
  • Connect Sheets to Looker Studio for dashboards and Zapier to build a lightweight CRM
  • Use ManyChat comment-to-DM flows to deliver discount links instantly (speed to lead)
  • Route ManyChat buyers through Etsy share-and-save links to cut fees, per her workflow
