Start an Etsy Shop

 I was talking with a friend who’s granddaughter loves to sew.  One great family project is to start an Etsy shop.  Think of all you will learn!  Start by looking at successful bloggers with Etsy stores, such as Small Things.  Here is Ginny’s shop.  She posts shop updates on her blog.  Another blogger, Six Figures Under has an Etsy Shop Series.  Etsy has great information about setting up a shop.

I recommend deciding what to sell, creating some inventory, and then start a blog.  How will you promote your new venture through social media?  How often will you post to your blog, YouTube, or social media sites?  What can you do to increase your shop’s profile?  

Your family will be writing, making, doing research, and learning about entrepreneurship—all at relatively low risk.  Ideally, your family will promote your kid’s passion.
