I love going on international trips on the podcast! This week, we’re crossing the pond again and going back the United Kingdom. My guest is Danial Rees and he runs the Etsy shop Zebrano Wood Craft.

Dan’s craft is woodwork and he makes really creative and classy wooden rings. Talk about finding a niche within a niche…. Doing so has helped Dan to really create a nice sustainable business and helped him transition from full-time employment to full-time entrepreneurship and I know we love to hear inspirational stories like his on the podcast.

I found Dan on YouTube on one of my “binge-watch YouTube videos for a couple of hours” days… He makes really creative tutorial videos as well helpful informational videos for other Etsy sellers and I really admire how he freely gives back to the Etsy community from what he has learned through his own personal selling experiences.

In our conversation, you’ll hear us discuss the following…

  • Danial’s strategies for promoting his Etsy shop
  • What social media marketing tactics have worked really for him and which ones he plans to explore next
  • Dan’s story of transitioning from full-time employment to full-time business owner
  • Knowing when a product is good enough to sell
  • Making a conscious decision to charge higher prices and how to let the market determine your product prices
  • Benefits of blogging, creating content, and growing as an influencer…
    • Remember: You’re much more than “just an Etsy seller”… Your background and experiences mean you have a lot of value to bring to the table, Danial is a great example of this, and you can be too!
