32. The Power of Niche Markets: How to Build a Million Dollar Etsy Brand

"I spent $5,000 to get a thousand units. So five bucks a piece. And from there, I ran a promotion. I spent a thousand dollars for them to run an email to their list of people that wanted to get deals. And then I ran a 50% off deal, which I made no money. And I made, I think we sold like maybe 200, 250 units because that's all I wanted to sell because I said, I'll do 200, 250 units. So I lost money. But what that did was it shot me up in the rankings. And then that went on to do $300,000." - Scott Scott Volker for a discussion on brand building and the importance of thinking long-term in the Etsy business.
