Selling jewellery on Etsy

Etsy is perfect for one man band, hand made jewellery businesses. They provide a very helpful interface for companies run by one to two employees and allow you to manage your business using your mobile phone. Etsy is strictly handmade however, and companies that aren’t selling handmade goods will be promptly shut down and often banned completely.

Amazon or eBay

Amazon and eBay are perfect low budget, easy options that remove the work that running a website requires. They also house any business from small to big, handmade to mass produced.

Ebay is much more simple to sell on than amazon as they don’t have a lengthy screening process. Ebay is great for vintage and second hand pieces as they already have a captive audience.

Amazons set up fee and screening process can be useful though as it feels less risky to purchase from amazon sellers from a customer point of view. Plus once the screening process is complete its easy to list and sell.
