Stacey runs the Etsy shop Fox Under The Moon Art where she sells self-love themed art prints, greeting cards and gifts to promote positive mental health and wellbeing.
Her journey on Etsy started in 2014, and has had many iterations. Her most recent venture however started in February 2021 has been by far the most successful of them all and she’s well on her way to making it the source of her full time income.
At the time we spoke she hd over 500 sales on Etsy (yes… in less than six months!), and had recently set up her own e-commerce website using Wix and Ecwid (you’ll hear all about this combo in our convo this week 😉 ).
A large part of her success she attributes to her approximately 7000+ (and growing every single day) followers on her Facebook page whom she says make up around 80-85% of her Etsy traffic.
