Etsy | After Making Your 1st Sale | Listing Multiple Products In One Listing
About this video
The transcript opens with a lengthy wedding ceremony for James and Gina — vows, ring exchange and prayers — before RJ turns to what to do after a first Etsy sale. His approach is manual rather than auto-synced: he puts designs on custom mock-ups on Etsy so the storefront looks professional, which he credits for his high Etsy sales. When an order arrives, he shows two Printful routes. First, create it manually: in Printful choose New Order / create a basic order for the Etsy shop, pick the exact product, size and colour from the Etsy order (a women’s extra-large grey Anvil 880 in his example), upload the design, copy the customer’s name and shipping details from Etsy, complete shipping, then paste the tracking number back into Etsy once available. Second, sync the product manually in Printful (store products, edit, choose product, colour and size, continue) so future orders for that item flow through automatically and charge the card on file; he often syncs ‘on the fly’ after a sale, or has a VA do it. He also suggests outsourcing fulfilment or using a local print shop connected through ShipStation for faster shipping. The payoff of the manual setup is one listing with a drop-down offering multiple products — t-shirt, tank top, long-sleeve and hoodie — so customers find everything in one place instead of clicking away.
Key takeaways
- RJ says he does Etsy mock-ups and listings manually instead of accepting Printful’s default synced mock-ups, and credits that professional look for his high sales
- For an unsynced order, recreate it manually in Printful (product, size, colour, design upload, customer shipping details copied from Etsy), then paste the tracking number back into Etsy
- Manually syncing a product in Printful after its first sale lets later orders for it go through automatically and charge the card on file
- Alternatives he mentions: outsource the ordering work, have a VA sync products, or use a local printer connected via ShipStation for faster shipping
- Putting multiple product types (tee, tank, long-sleeve, hoodie) in one listing’s drop-down keeps customers from leaving the page to find another format
