Each month we will be publishing on the Koalanda blog a brief report on the Etsy sales of the preceding month. Here is the report for April 2025. Sales on Etsy in comparison with previous months Last month’s report began on a positive note, highlighting a modest but encouraging uptick in sales on the platform. Unfortunately, we can’t say the same this time. April sales fell short of March levels, with average daily sales down by about 2%. While the drop isn’t dramatic, April currently ranks as the slowest sales month in the past six months. A look at the daily sales chart over the last three months reveals a noticeable dip around April 20th. The reason is clear—April 20th…

Each month we will be publishing on the Koalanda blog a brief report on the Etsy sales of the preceding month. Here is the report for March 2025. Sales on Etsy in comparison with previous months It’s only the third Etsy sales report of 2025, and we’re already seeing an uptick in sales compared to the previous month. Unfortunately, that growth is quite modest — just 1.2%. Still, a small increase is better than a small drop. Average daily sales in March were close to the levels seen in September and October, although they haven’t quite reached them yet. If we look at the daily sales chart for the past three months, March appears very stable. There are no sharp…

Each month we will be publishing on the Koalanda blog a brief report on the Etsy sales of the preceding month. Here is the report for February 2025. Sales on Etsy in comparison with previous months February has been cold—not just in terms of weather but also for Etsy sales. While the drop isn’t dramatic compared to January, sales still declined by 3%, which is hard to ignore. Looking at the past six months, February stands out as the slowest. That said, the difference from September’s sales isn’t significant. If you’re an Etsy seller hoping this will be the lowest point of the year, you might want to brace yourself. Historical data suggests that summer tends to be even slower.…

Each month we will be publishing on the Koalanda blog a brief report on the Etsy sales of the preceding month. Here is the report for January 2025. Sales on Etsy in comparison with previous months The new year is here, and Etsy sellers are kicking it off with the usual hopes for better sales but also with growing concerns that sales have taken a steep dive. Every January and February, it’s common to see complaints from sellers about slow sales—claims that orders have stopped, dropped significantly, or are much lower than usual. But numbers don’t lie, and this year’s January report will show that the situation is far from as bad as it might seem. If we compare January…

Each month we will be publishing on the Koalanda blog a brief report on the Etsy sales of the preceding month. Here is the report for December 2024. Sales on Etsy in comparison with previous months The new year has begun, and it’s the perfect time to look back at December 2024 and Etsy’s performance during the final month of the year. After the frenzy of Black Friday, many sellers might have expected a significant drop in sales. However, to everyone’s surprise and delight, not only was there no sharp decline, but December sales on Etsy actually surpassed those in November. The growth was modest—just under 3%—but it’s still worth celebrating. In 2023, December was a strong month, but it…

Sales on Etsy in comparison with previous months We’re happy to start our November Etsy sales report without any major surprises. The previous months didn’t perform as well as sellers might have hoped, especially when compared to the same period in 2023. However, this month finally brings the much-anticipated surge in sales, thanks to Black Friday. Looking at the numbers, the average daily sales on Etsy in November grew by over 45% compared to October. On one hand, this is an impressive WOW-worthy increase. On the other hand, it’s exactly what we…

Each month we will be publishing on the Koalanda blog a brief report on the Etsy sales of the preceding month. Here is the report for October 2024. Sales on Etsy in comparison with previous months In last month's report, we shared our expectations for October sales to start picking up, based on patterns we've observed over the past few years. Last year, both September and October saw sales growth on Etsy—almost like a warm-up for the big Black Friday and holiday season in November and December. Unfortunately, this year, the upward trend hasn’t been as strong. In September, we experienced a slight dip in sales, with numbers nearly identical to those in August. Now, instead of seeing growth in…
