Hey there! My name is Justine Smith and I run the Etsy shop PlumeAdore and (the unofficial) Etsy Business Community, which helps new sellers take ACTION each week to improve their Etsy success. With 2010 well under way, I've decided to highlight ways you can stand out from the crowd, combat the dreaded tax deadline and improve your product photos well before Valentine's Day!
 Find Your Niche
Now that we are well into 2010, you may be wondering how to stand out on Etsy. Simple, it's time to find your niche! Watch these Etsy Virtual Lab videos on Finding Your Niche to help you get moving.
 Get Taxes Out of the Way
With the tax deadline approaching you may be concerned about how your Etsy shop should be addressed in your 2009 filing. Check out this helpful post, Tax Time Considerations for the Independent, and get your taxes out of the way. Your creative juices will be flowing once you get that off your plate
 Revamp Your Photos
I was recently asked to make a video showing sellers techniques they should use to photograph their items. With Valentine's Day around the corner, I pointed to Etsy Holiday How-To #4: Photographing Your Items, which shows you (in a hilariously offbeat way) a few tips to help get your photos looking professional.
