Okay, not looking for sympathy or whatever but how do I grow my account? I am always stagnant at 200-300 views, with a few lucky ones at above, but it's using trendy audios.

I'm a creative and I'm not too comfortable sharing my face yet but do i have to at this point? I am also trying to promote my Etsy shop but that's not working and no im not gonna spend my money on META ads.

Edit; My "how long people watched your reel"? always horrid. Skip rate? Doesn't go below 50%. And I feel like half the views are botted :(

Hello,

I am new to etsy, but ive seen many people being able to get a good side income, if not a "paying job"/livable income from making etsy shops.

I use print on demand, in no way am I finally stable to print the items myself, let alone I live in a tiny apartment, I cant store anything in my unit.

Even with promoting on my page organically, etsy ads (that isnt going to kill my budget), anything but having to use META or TikTok ads, and i still dont have sales.

I really dont know where I am going wrong with this whole thing. Are my designs not good? Are they not being reached enough??? I really dont want to have to squeeze everything and skip on rent.

Hello! I know many men/partners don't come on here often asking for advice, but i thought to give it a try.

My partner has PCOS, and I (a man) have been trying all I could to support her in any way, from healthy eatting to working out with her at the gym. Although she is taking contraceptives to help "deal with it" (although i can tell she really hates being on it), i want to seek out some help from people who do have the condition.

I hate seeing my partner look through commentary of how people are criticizing those overweight only because theyre eatting unhealthy foods (as i have seen when i accidentally look over what shes doing), with no consideration of any health conditions at all. I love her a lot and I wonder if there's anything I can do.

She has also ranted to me about the fear of not having kids, or if shes off the contraceptive that she would be overweight and look (as i quote from her) "fat and hideous" and I cant help but feel sad for her.

Any advice? :(

Quick note; my English isnt all that good :')

So I am starting to get into working out again, since I am home more often. A friend told me to not eat carbs, as it is bad for you. I thought it was a myth bust and you do need a bit of carbs? Not full on junk food/sweets of course, since my partner has PCOS i want them to make sure that they're eatting well (as in, contributing to cooking more). But I want to make sure I am also not making it so that cooking healthy foods mean that its going to be sad looking food, as it was like in the 2000s or 90s. That is unfortunately the only way I know about healthy food that its a sad looking salad.
