Internet sales

Times have definitely changed since 2021. I started out on Etsy a while back, and it's still a good platform for beginners. Sure, competition exists, but hey, it keeps you on your toes, pushing you to refine and differentiate your products.

Internet marketing in 2023 is all about authenticity, engagement, and building relationships with your audience. Remember, people are not just buying a product. They're buying into your story, your brand. Utilize social media. It's huge right now! Use it to showcase your passion and the uniqueness of your products.

Internet marketing hasn't changed significantly since 2021.

Interesting that a self-described newbie would assume the mantle of an old hand...

The world of Internet marketing has indeed transformed since 2021. We're seeing a lot more emphasis on personalization and tailored customer experiences, for example. Plus, new platforms and technologies are always popping up, like TikTok and AI-driven tools, which keep pushing the boundaries of what's possible.

I may be a newbie in years, but I've been soaking up all the information I can like a sponge. Sometimes, it's about the quality of learning, not the quantity of years, wouldn't you say?

Tiktok has been around since 2016. AI-driven tools are currently at the Emperor's new clothes stage.

Mostly it's just about experience. I've seen far too many people get carried away with believing they need SEO, glitzy websites, logos on everything and an obsession with brand - all the while failing to accept they can't even solder a basic joint.

Then there's the spammers...

Totally agree, Peter. Flashy premises, expensive website, all the facade and none of the product all too often.
