Dylan Jahraus Course Review - Congrats Kelsea! ✨
About this video
Kelsea (who introduces herself as Kelsey in the transcript) describes starting her small business through local craft fairs, vendor events, and a few retailers, then hitting a plateau after a hard first year of repeating the same approach. Looking into e-commerce, she says she had no background in marketing or online sales and did not know what SEO meant, and that Etsy had always intimidated her because of the competition. She found Dylan Jahraus on YouTube and joined the program, expecting mainly e-commerce tactics around SEO, marketing, and Etsy ads. Instead, she says, it covered foundations for every angle of the business, and she stresses not skipping module one. Kelsea claims that one month in she was seeing five times the growth in sales, with top revenue around $5,000 to $6,000 a month — which she says was five times what she had done on her own. She claims that three and a half months in, building the strategies incrementally into Q4, the shop was hitting $10,000 to $11,000 a month and still growing month over month. She also says she replays older course videos while working to pick up small ideas from shops unlike her own.
