Seller Handbook

Next week, on August 11 and 12, hundreds of Etsy shop owners will come together in New York City for the first ever Etsy Up Conference, and even more will join in from afar. If you can’t make it in person, we’ve organized a number of ways for you to learn from expert speakers, connect with your peers and feel inspired by each day’s activities. Read on for all of the details on how to watch the Etsy Up live stream, join the conversation on social media and meet fellow Etsy sellers doing the same.

Watch Online

We’ve curated an exciting lineup of inspirational speakers, industry experts and Etsy shop owners who will be leading sessions at Etsy Up. Each day, a selection of programs will be streaming live online at etsyup.com thanks to our friends at CreativeLive. Throughout the day, we encourage you to share your questions for speakers and panelists on Twitter with #askEtsyUp. We’ll look for questions from the in-person and online audience during each session.

You’ll also have the opportunity to join two live Q&As on Facebook, organized especially for Etsy sellers joining us remotely. Etsy shop owners Jahje Ives of Baby Jives and Kate Kennedy of Be There In Five will be available to answer your questions about social media and growing your Etsy business.
