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…

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 September 2024. Sales on Etsy in comparison with previous months Sales in September remained almost identical to those in August. Looking at the exact figures, there was a minimal decline of just 0.13%.

However, we also didn’t see the growth we had been anticipating. Perhaps in the coming month, we’ll finally witness a real increase in sales. That said, it’s important to highlight that the strongest sales days for Etsy sellers over…

Sales on Etsy in comparison with previous months We love starting our monthly reports with news of sales growth compared to previous months. We know Etsy sellers look forward to such updates, hoping it means more opportunities for their products. Unfortunately, in June, we saw a decline in sales compared to May.

However, we want…

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 May 2024. Sales on Etsy in comparison with previous months In our previous report, we started with positive news, hopeful that we were witnessing a sustainable growth in Etsy sales. The last week of April showed visible improvement and seemed promising. Unfortunately, our hopes did not materialize, and sales in May have decreased compared to April. The drop is about 3%—on one hand, nothing dramatic (Etsy is not collapsing due to occasional monthly declines of a few percent). On the other hand, while we've seen relatively stable sales levels since the beginning of the…

Moreover, examining the chart of daily sales over the last 3 months reveals that the…

Things appear much the same as they did in January, with no significant declines or spikes in sales. Interestingly, February 14th and 15th show lower sales levels, which is expected…
