Email doesn't look right? Click here! Etsy.com | Etsy's Blog Facebook | Twitter Hello hello,   We launched a change last week that ushers in an exciting new era for Etsy Teams. You will now see an announcement in your activity feed when people in your circle join a team. That's one giant leap for the visibility of teams on Etsy! Your Etsy Account Purchases Feedback Favorites Public Profile Account Teams Resources Handbook DOs and DON'Ts Grants Program Tag, you're it! Curious about team tags? Here's a little breakdown: Team Tag: A unique term, designated by a team, that members use to tag their items. This tag must contain the word "team." Read more here. Team Treasury Tag: Tagging your team treasury with the word "etsyteam" makes it easy for us to find treasuries made up of, and curated by participants in the Etsy Teams program. (For bonus points, use #EtsyTeamTreasury as a tag when sharing your team treasury on Twitter!) Image by FOUNDLINGS February Winners Announced Congratulations to last month's Team Grant winners! Fashion:Remix will be advertising on some major eco-themed blogs. The Etsy Plush Team is heading off on a team bonding retreat.
