Sellers community improvement ideas
29

Please share your ideas for sellers community improvements. We can implement anything!

I have a couple of things that I wished were easier -

1 - Remove or replace a tag

2 - post to Google plus

3 - Auto post to tumbler and stumbleupon

4 - Promote our Etsy Websites (not the stores, but that new "patterns" site)

Do you answer these ideas anymore.

Hi Ark, I was wondering if you can add a poll option to the posts? That might be a useful one I think.

Joe, thank you for the suggestion! We added it to our queue and will start working on it soon.

I think that is an awesome project to work on!

I like this idea also, I think, but it would be interesting to know how it would be used.

This is a great idea! I can't wait to test it out!

Add pictures for comment as its sometimes easier to show than explain

Thanks for the suggestion, Laura! It's definitely one of the must have features.

I need video tutorials showing me how to get the most out of Seller Tools. They don't have to be anything fancy, just some screen capture videos would be great.

Hi Tracy, we are planning to create some video tutorials for Seller Tools users. We will make an announcement in our blog when it's ready. Stay tuned!

I think something that would be helpful for me is to be able to auto promote some of my favorite shops to the social media options. It would save me a great number of hours of time, and I think that then they could reciprocate. I'm not sure how exactly it could work to benefit them, as well as me. Maybe some of the people that I follow that are also here on Seller tools or???

You are able to connect to Twitter, Pinterest, Shopify and Facebook. Do you know how to do this?

Nevermind, I misunderstood your question :)

Hi Gayla, thanks for sharing this with us!

We have some ideas for new tools related to your suggestion and plan to work on them next year.

I also want to be able to post on Google plus, as addition to the current ones (Facebook page, Twitter, and Pinterest).

It would be great if we can set the 'start date' for auto-scheduled post. This way, I can set different auto schedules for each section of my store, but with different date. e.g. Necklace section is scheduled once every 3 days, starting 10/3/2016, bracelet section is scheduled once every 3 days too, but starting on 10/4/2016, and earrings section is scheduled once every 3 days but starting on 10/5/2016. So I will have every day auto posting with different section....I am a part time artist and have another full time jobs. So I would like to set up the schedules all at once when I have spare time, but don't want to post them in the same day.

Rita, we love your suggestion and will be working on implementing schedule start date soon. Thanks for your idea!

Rita, please try new 'Start date' feature when you have a chance (you'll need to click on 'Show advanced settings'). We appreciate any feedback and please let us know if you notice any issues.

Thank you!

I went in to update/add new auto schedule. I saw thew field for 'start date'. Thank you.But somehow the store section is now gone. Nothing in the dropdown list. Even the existing schedules which had selected store section before, now it's blank...Could you please fix it?Thanks.

1

Well, this sounds weird. We changed nothing there and it looks like a client side issue. Please try again, try another browser or contact our support via live chat.

I tried again using another computer. Now the section dropdown list is back. And I was able to choose it. Thanks. Will see whether the schedules works properly starting tomorrow.

This is an idea that came to me this morning when I was thinking I only wanted to promote orange and black jewelry, and schedule the posts to go our for halloween. I have a section in my shop for holiday jewelry, so I set the schedule to go out for that section, but how cool would it be to be able to have the sale set so it would search by color??? Could it be possible?

Sounds interesting, we'll take a look what can be done in terms of color search.

Thank you, Gayla!

I would like to be able to have one schedule for several hours each day that would renew every 5 minutes a random item from a specific section. To do this I need a field that would specify the number of days I want to run this schedule. This would eliminate having to do this every day I want this type of schedule to run.

It would be nice if the items in a Clickathon were deleted automatically when they are sold or removed from their website.

I don't know if this can be done, I have an item in the clickathon and it shows sold. This item was not sold.

How a about a link to the support page from the HELP page.

On the renewals, we need to have the ability to have ascending and descending sort on the expiration date. I want to renew with a a bulk change on the items coming up for renewal, right now I have to go forward to many pages in able to do this. The earliest expiration date should be at the top for selection.

Looking forward to being able to use Seller Tools for both my Pattern site and Etsy shop.

Hi Tracey, this is already work in progress. It will be available in about next 2 weeks.

May the cha-ching be with you!

Tracey, please see https://seller-tools.com/community/p/336/introducing-etsy-pattern-support#399 We would appreciate your help with testing this new feature.

I can hardly wait! I need to work on my patterns site, now that I see that we will soon be able to use Seller Tools for our patterns site.

Ark, Thanks for all you and your team do for sellers on Etsy!!

Just a passing thought this morning - When someone likes my shop, I sometimes like to send or an item, I like to send them a "thank you convo". Any chance that could be an "auto send" if it is a new "favoriting buyer"? Seems impossible, but thought I would ask :)

I understand your good intentions, Gayla. However, this kind of convos is not encouraged by Etsy (this might be considered as a spam). Perhaps due to this reason they don't provide any options to automate convo replies. We'll let you know if the situation changes.

I'm hoping at some point, as I also have a shop on Storenvy, that Seller Tools will incorperate these as well? Also, I would love it if it would help generate posts for Instagram as well for Social Media post options.

Hi K.D.!

Yes, it's in our plans to add Storenvy support as well. However, it's not that bright for Instagram post generation (anyway, we'll take a look what can be done here).

Thank you for your suggestions!

Thank you! I look forward to seeing whatever you guys come up with.

Hi All, Ark what about a auto link to Instagram, and I would like to have the discount on sale say 15% off at the bottom of the thumbnail as the red discount does not show up with the thumbnail at present and that is what a lot of people look for,. the only way to do it at the moment is to have an Etsy sale discount as well as seller tools. I love the red discounted numbers but as I said you can't see that at a glance with the thumbnails. i hope I am making sense I am not very good at explaining myself :(
