Has anyone ever done any training courses for small businesses / Etsy sellers etc? Did you learn anything?

Before I had my twins, I had an Etsy shop selling paper cuts, but mainly sold through Facebook. Just before I got pregnant I set up a second shop selling paper cutting templates. There weren’t many on there but I was not well during pregnancy and then my twins came early, were both in NICU and they both have complex needs so I stopped doing any new work. I left the templates shop open and it just ticked over without me doing anything to it.

Now they’ve started school I wanted to get back to it but I’m basically having to start from scratch on social media etc. I’ve added lots of new templates and a new kit, and it’s reaching more people and I’m getting more sales but still not many.

Just received a load of frames so I can take better photos, and ordered new packaging for my kits but I want to make sure I’m doing everything I can. I’m about to restart my paper cuts Etsy shop too so I would like to get it right from the start.

Have seen loads of companies advertising Etsy courses etc but they all seem so scammy and I haven’t been convinced by any of them

Has anyone actually taken a course that’s good, or found any content that’s helped them for this sort of business?
