The Great Debate
Has anyone read this commodity that came out yesterday on CNNmoney.com almost Etsy? It seems like there are a lot of people on both sides of the debate here. Whether yous honey it, hate it, or dear to hate it- I think its safe to say Everyone in the handmade community has an opinion about Etsy. Here are a couple of annotation-worthy quotes from the article:
" Etsy , boasts two.4 million registered members in 150 countries. Its more than 155,000 active vendors sold $58 million worth of appurtenances in the offset five months of 2009, doubling Etsy's sales book over the same period last year. Despite the recession, the site facilitated sales of $87.v million in 2008 and is expected to break even for the get-go time later this year."
"Etsy actively markets itself as a venue where the arts-and-crafts set tin can achieve entrepreneurial success. Kalin often talks about creating an economy of various owners. Each calendar week the official Etsy weblog, called the Storque, runs a feature called Quit Your Day Job, profiling sellers who have stopped punching the corporate clock. Yet Etsy spokesman Adam Brown acknowledges that the "vast bulk" of sellers use the site as a 'secondary source of income.' Some Etsy sellers say the Quit Your Twenty-four hour period Chore entrada doesn't jibe with reality."
