I love this podcast! Gets right to the point, gives us the info, and a lot of it is stuff I haven’t heard from other sources.

Update 3-11-25 episode 202, just wanted to say I loved this episode, thank you for your vulnerability, it makes what you’re saying real and relatable! Really good stuff here. Thanks again Jered! ~~~~~~~~~ I listen to a few podcasts to help me with my Etsy shop and this is one of them. I love the straight forwardness of Jered and he offers real help and such good advice that I haven’t found in other podcasts. Also he’s entertaining and doesn’t take himself too seriously and is very real about stuff. I just started my Etsy shop Forest & Cove in November 2022 and pretty much right away I found this podcast and still have so much to implement in my shop that I’ve learned here. One of my favorite episodes on here is Feature vs Benefit, you have to go listen to it, it’ll blow your mind! Thanks Jered, please keep it up!! 😄

I have read and listened to a lot of Etsy information and this is the only show I’ve found to be consistently helpful! There’s a take away from every single episode- and it’s free! Literally the best- thank you for sharing all your knowledge!! It’s informal off the cuff in the best way- and I appreciate real life showing up in the show- feels like I’m listening to real person- which I am! Thanks for all you do!

Love this podcast, it’s the only one I listen to regarding tips to improve my Etsy shop. He is frank and presents unique insights that are useful. I appreciate the fact that it isn’t polished and scripted, it’s more like an informal conversation with a friend and coach. I’d love to take advantage of some of his coaching programs if things work out. Keep up the great work!

Thank you for all you do!

I like how Jered will tell you what you need to know and doesn’t hold back. I think my favorite moment was when he called out a known Etsy “coach” who is basically a scam artist. Also loved his episode on AI. His opinion on the subject changed so he shared why it changed and tips on how to use it effectively. It worked for me! PS- Jered, bro. I’m here for the off-the-cuff commentary. It makes you, you!

Pros: Good information; podcaster’s personality shines; episodes are short and sweet. Cons: A podcast editor would be great - I don’t need to know that you got a call and what it was about unless it has to do with the podcast subject matter. This is a BIG turnoff.

I’ve been listening to this podcast for almost a year now and I find it really informative. Each and every time, there’s always a piece of advice that I want to try and implement. Also, I do appreciate the casual, laid back style. I don’t care if I hear the rain in the background, as long as the information is there. Thank you Jered!

Really like the info you have put out and really appreciate you!

I’ve listened to a lot of Etsy seller podcasts. I can’t even remember how I discovered this one, but this has been my favorite so far because there are such good marketing tidbits! I look forward to gleaning ideas each time I listen and then implementing a new strategy. I recently loved the ideas for email marketing and getting people to sign up by posting pictures in listings with a discount offer if they sign up. I am still working on “stacking” my offer, but I had a few people sign up already! Thanks for all the great tips, Jared!

I have listened to every episode of this podcast, some of them multiple times, and I find it incredibly helpful. I have also purchased Jered's courses, which I highly recommend. Additionally, I truly appreciate Mariah sharing her perspective and mindfulness tips, which help us stay sane while managing the numerous roles we have in our Etsy shops

I actually love etsy

Speaks too fast and many squirrel moments where he gets off track. It’s a bit hard to listen to as well with his vocal fry. His old podcasts might be helpful, but newer ones aren’t.

I don’t even have an Etsy store anymore but I find this podcast to be very useful for guidance on how to approach my sales on a different platform. His sense of humor kills me. I often laugh out loud listening to it. No fluffy drawn out intros!🥱 Direct and to the point. 👍🏻

Part 2. I’m not a dude I’m a woman and I meant it in a good way. Still love your show ☺️ I recently started listening to this podcast and I love the vibe it brings It is very different from others in the sense that it presents great information in a casual and fun information that makes me connect. It is almost like talking to my fun sister that I would pay to talk to me all day long. Thanks!

Jered, I also make up words and forget to introduce myself in my podcast. I support your word salad and appreciate your down to earth Etsy insight!

Thankyou Jared for sharing your knowledge to us small sellers. This podcast is to the point, informative, honestly never a waste of time nor “click bait”. I actually can apply the conversations and concepts to my shop - and Jered thankyou for the informative and motivational video chat! (EM from SparklyWaves)

I really like this podcast. It’s straightforward and not gatekeeping without giving away all the secrets. I really trust the host and feel like he’s really been where I am in my early days of Etsy. And he’s honest about the time it takes etc.

Since starting my Etsy shop in 2023, I’ve looked for sources of info for various topics. Jered’s podcast is the absolutely BEST I’ve found. When I drive back and forth to see my family (3 hours each way), I put on this podcast and listen to episode after episode. I have learned so much! And now have a very long to-do list for my shop. Yes, Jered talks a bit fast, but he’s easy to understand and his willingness to share his vast business experience is SO appreciated. This is my favorite podcast hands down. But I will say that I do like watching on YouTube now that he films himself talking.

Love this podcast because he doesn’t just give tips he explains why the strategies suggested will work. Super helpful and informative. Thank you!!!

I have listened to several podcasts aimed at Etsy sellers. This is the best and only one I take time to listen to. Awesome insight and tips. Thank you!

I’ve been a long time listener and I absolutely love this podcast! The tone is down-to-earth and conversational, and there are always actionable takeaways; I’ve been able to apply what I’m learning to my shop and I’m seeing positive results! I’m beyond grateful!

The older episodes are organized and thoughtful. Unfortunately the newer episodes are disorganized with a lot of rambling. This podcast has a lot of potential based on the previous episodes and your e-commerce experience. Please resume planning out your content before recording.

I listen to lots of podcasts on a variety of topics. Several months ago I decided to start a small woodworking business making custom frames for art. While I know woodworking, e-commerce is un chartered territory. So, I leveraged the power of YouTube and podcasts. Many podcasts are glorified commercials for what they are selling that are disguised as tutorials. Some podcasts sound like get rich schemes or the host comes across like a used car dealer. This podcast, however, is none of those things. Jered does an excellent job of presenting information in a way that is pragmatic and is often based on data and acceptable best practices. The programs and products that he does sell is presented in a way that is factual and not pushy. In fact, a lot of what he provides absolutely free could be sold or packaged into modules. I’m certainly appreciative of what he offers and I’m definitely appreciative of his intellectual approach to e-commerce. I binged every episode while working in my shop and on the road. I could probably benefit from listening again where I can take notes. It’s refreshing to find such great content coupled with his presentation style. Thanks Jered!

I really love that he gives so many great tips and advice. Most podcasts won’t give you that much information unless you pay for their course. I listen sometimes 2 or 3 times so I can absorb all the info! Keep up the great work Jered!

I love Jered’s straightforward and real advice. This is the kind of podcast you want to take notes on and listen to over and over again! I also love that he doesn’t chit chat and interview people and spend an hour without giving any real info. He understands what Etsy sellers need and he gives it straight up. It is fun hearing a bit about his travels and family though, too! Thanks, Jered!

Jered is a wealth of Etsy knowledge and he shares what he knows so freely (literally, it’s free) with his listeners. He speaks clearly and in a way that’s super easy to understand. I’ve listened to several e-commerce podcasts and there is no one who comes to close to what Jered offers in Grow My Etsy Shop. I’m hooked!

I’m so bummed when I see negative reviews because of this. There are so many other pods out there that would be a better fit if this isn’t your jam. Personally, I love that it’s fast paced. Tons of info in short listening nuggets.

This podcast stands so far apart from other Etsy podcasts out there that exist only to sell their own class/product. Jered doesn’t showcase one person after another who bought his program and suddenly became a six figure seller. He doesn’t jam a weekly sales pitch down your throat. He just shows up weekly to offer some really solid guidance that will help your Etsy business. Jered is super chill and easy to listen to. Highly recommend!

I’ve been listening for the last 4 hours. I usually listen to most podcasts on double-time, but not this one. Love this podcast. I hope you see this, Jered. Thank you. You’ve given me hope. As soon as I implement the basics, I’m going to sign up for your program. It’s so hard to do this as a side hustle, but with your help, I think I can do it!

Jared, thank you. I’ve had my Etsy shop for years and this podcast has helped me make changes that have given big results. I can only imagine how much further I would be if I had this podcast as my guide starting out!

If you are a shop owner there are about a million people on podcasts, online, and in videos that want to sell you something. For the first time THIS podcast is just honest and straightforward without the fluff or high pressure sales tactics. Yes, you can hire him for a consult, but you won’t find the usual “buy my program and you will make billions of dollars on Etsy” bait that comes with most others. The information is direct, consist, honest, and practical. Thanks for the great content, and keep it up :)

I have been listening to this podcast since the very beginning and have listen to several of these podcasts more than once. Every single episode is packed full of incredible and generous information on building your Etsy shop. I find this information to be extremely helpful not just in my Etsy business but also in my practice as a therapist. I will definitely be a lifelong supporter and fan!!

I happened upon Jered’s podcast as I am always trying to educate myself further on my growing art business, but I have not been tending to my Etsy shop enough. I’m hooked now, and listen to his podcast whenever I can. Every episode he brings interesting topics up with a cheerful demeanor. Mahalo Jered for this awesome podcast! 🙂

This Etsy podcast is BY FAR the best I’ve come across in my years as a seller. Jered brings a fresh take on Etsy, marketing and SEO and has boundless expertise and knowledge. I listen to most episodes upwards of three times. I really can’t thank Jered enough for his generous gift of information!

I’ve been searching for a podcast to help with my newer Etsy shop and this one is fantastic! I appreciate the ACTIONABLE steps that are given to improve my shop- I actually took a few notes on the SEO episode. There are a lot of Etsy “coaches” with podcasts use their channel to constantly plug their coaching program without giving much value in their podcasts but this one has great content!

Seriously one of the best podcasts out there. I get something out of every one, even if the main topic isn’t my current focus. Jared is a funny and highly experienced guy with a lot to share. My Etsy shop is off to a good start and I know what some of my next steps will be thanks to the podcast.

I've started applying the things I learned and I'm already seeing results. So grateful for all this shared knowledge and experience. Check this one out for sure.

I love how directly Jared delivers information and tips. I’ve used some of the tips and have seen my SEO grow. Other podcasts tend to glaze over info without specifics. This one does not. Thank you! Thank you!

So I have always had SEO and Etsy seller YouTube videos and podcasts playing in the background of everything I do, kind of thinking that I just needed to consume all the info I could find on the topic- the more the better right? They all kind of say the same thing and it usually leads to them trying to get you to buy into their “live” workshops for $1,000 and I move onto the next video. It’s like for every hour of content I watch or listen to, I get like 15 mins of solid advice. In browsing for podcasts on Etsy SEO I landed here- and about 3 weeks later I am still here and now I’ve listened to every episode. Jered gives such concise, direct, and knowledgeable information not just on SEO but on marketing principles and as they apply specifically to Etsy. It’s like he’s learned the mechanics of the machine and he comes on here and gives such amazing knowledge that you can apply instantly to your store to grow your Etsy store to rise up in the ranks of your keywords. Thing I especially love: - everything he says is new info to me. I’ve watched and listened to a lot on the topic but I often need a notepad when I listen to him because he gives actionable information you can use right away. - he does not try to sell you on seo tools that cost $$$ and so you feel like there’s a financial barrier to being successful- I feel like I can do it if I work smarter and not harder. He just talks principles and gives real examples - 15-20 minute podcasts so he is really to the point and gives so much value, they’re easy to just binge - he has a sense of humor and isn’t super dry to listen to like a college class on marketing wold be, so he’s enjoyable to listen to also! I’m honestly surprised he shares such in depth and helpful knowledge for free- your search for learning how to optimize your shop to start showing up on Etsy can end here.

I’ve been listening to this show since 2021 and am always implementing stuff mentioned on show that actually provides results. FYI This is not a fluff show at all jered provides very valuable information that if you put into place will actually help you grow. I love that his wife Mariah is on the show as well which helps with the mindset part because you can have a ton of information but if you’re not in the right mindset, I personally don’t think you’ll get very far. Thank you guys so much for all you do! I could literally go on all day but I’ll stop here lol

I just started my first Etsy business called PersonalizedPlease and have been listening to all of your stuff! I hope to grow more knowledge to help me with my business! Thanks man

I appreciate anyone who takes the time to give out free information. Jered’s podcast is filled with lots of great information. I thoroughly enjoyed the last episode about keyword padding. Currently in my shop updating my titles!

This show has been so helpful with starting and growing my Etsy shop. I look forward to each new episode. The host breaks things down to be easily understood and implemented. So happy I stumbled upon this podcast! Thank you!

I found this podcast with a quick podcast search and is now hands down my favorite Etsy help podcast. The information is helpful, clear and the episodes are short and easy to understand with simple action steps to apply to your Etsy shop. Worth listening!

I love your talking points and topics. You provide valuable tips for us to get going. There’s a few adjustments I think you should make. Content isn’t everything, we also need a good quality recording. First, please SLOW DOWN. Ease up on the caffeine before recording lol. The energy is good but it’s hard to follow you when you go from talking super fast to slow or normal speed. Try recording in the evening when your energy might be a little less intense lol. Scripts or teleprompters can be helpful to keep you at a normal pace. Next, please get a dead cat for your mic, maybe a couple sound panels, and try not to talk when your head is turned away from the mic. The levels are all over the place. It makes it hard to listen to. The dead cat will help with breath noises and the sound panels will help with sound bouncing everywhere in the room. Don’t get me wrong, the audio quality isn’t bad, but there’s definitely some room for improvement. YouTubers get this lol.

This podcast is packed full of concrete actionable steps based on solid marketing principles. It’s been my go-to guide while setting up my shop. It’s helped me not only avoid costly missteps, but provided an effective, efficient, and strategic game plan for launching and everything after. Every episode is absolutely worth the time investment. Super stoked that this resource is out there. A big mahalo to Jered.

Straight forward, useful advice.

Great podcast for building a successful Etsy shop. Lots of golden nuggets and great advice!!
