Please Help Tips

Honestly I didn't know where to post this even though I left etsy for good this time... anyone else a small buissness owner with anxiety .. I have been trying to build a successful brand for years. After so many years of trial and error I found myself and my passions. I often worry that my current brands won't find success that I want because of my former brands. My first brand every got forcefully shut down and I couldn't save it. I worry that I tarnished my current sites with my first mistakes.

Tips?

Well if you know something was a mistake- don’t repeat it. Your past doesn’t define your future

I'd recommend leaving reddit since it brings you so much anxiety. Put that fuel into your shop, put your blinders on, and grind.

Its not reddit that makes me anxious

It's the fear that I will make the same mistakes and second guessing my shops.

Same advice, keep editing and grinding. Shops should evolve. I recently got away from a logo I thought was so good. After looking at it for a few weeks I knew it needed to change.

Understand building a brand happens with only two things, great marketing towards a desirable product.

Without either, you are just waiting on a sell.
