Writing a business biography can be one of the most difficult challenges you will face as an entrepreneur, and even the best writers struggle with writing about themselves. Unfortunately, as intimidating as it can be, it is a critical part of your business and ignoring it is not an option. All selling platforms require a shop biography, but in particular, Etsy has recently made some search engine algorithm changes that make a solid biography essential.
MAGAZINE TALK — founder's letter
06
from the founder
Welcome to the Handmade Seller magazine! I'm so glad that you decided to check our publication out! This is a free sample and it's comprised of various articles that we've published throughout the years. My name is Dani and I'm a digital artist and long-time entrepreneur (over 15 years).
I created this magazine in 2015 to support creative entrepreneurs, provide inspiration and guidance, and give you something to read every month that helps you feel re-centered, excited, and confident that you can build a profitable business.
We feature artisan entrepreneurs every month who have accomplished amazing things like getting over 20,000 blog visitors every month for
free, launching a successful Kickstarter campaign, or growing an email list to over 44,000 people.
When I first started in business I found that I learned best by reading stories from people who had accomplished exactly what I was trying to do. It was a relaxed way of learning and it helped me find relevant information as well as showed me that everyone is the same and that I was just as capable of reaching my goals as everyone else. Years later, that sparked the idea for this magazine.
Our typical magazine issues are between 70 - 80 pages and include business stories from sellers, featured display booths and studios, columns from experts in the industry, exclusive discounts, and the Newstand which covers the latest industry updates from Etsy, Amazon, Shopify, shopping trends, social media, eCommerce news, and more.
