Shop Launch Checklist & 90-Day Marketing Calendar for Etsy Sellers

$29.00

This shop launch checklist and 90-day marketing calendar for Etsy sellers helps you plan the weeks before launch, keep posting for the first 90 days, and see whether your ads pay for themselves. Who it's for: Makers and small online sellers who are opening or relaunching a shop, post on a few social channels, maybe run small ads, and want one dated plan instead of scattered notes. It's platform-neutral: the checklist and calendar work for an Etsy shop, your own website or another marketplace. The problem it solves: Without a dated plan, launch tasks slip, posting fades after launch week, and ad spend can cost more than it brings in. This workbook dates every task and post from your launch date with DONE, OVERDUE, MISSED and THIS WEEK status, and turns weekly ad results into cost per order, return on ad spend and profit after ads against a break-even set by your own margin. What's inside Launch & Marketing Workbook (EXAMPLE + BLANK, .xlsx) Shop Launch Playbook (PDF) Launch Email Templates (DOCX + PDF) Listing Photo Shot List and Product Listing Worksheet (DOCX + PDF) Content Ideas Bank and Weekly Marketing Routine (DOCX + PDF) AI Prompt Pack: 25 prompts (PDF + TXT) Start Here guide and license How it works On Settings, enter your launch date and your margin after product cost, fees and shipping.

Templates aren't legal advice; tax lines are placeholders. Have your own professionals review them. The tools help you run your business; they don't guarantee income or results. Excel .xlsx workbook, no macros; formulas tested in LibreOffice (Google Sheets and Excel open-tests pending). Texting or emailing customers: message only people who gave you their number or email, honor every STOP or unsubscribe request right away, and get a customer's written consent before sending marketing texts with an automated tool. Marketing emails need your postal address and an unsubscribe option (CAN-SPAM). Some states, including Virginia, add rules such as allowed texting hours. This isn't legal advice. No fake reviews, invented urgency or made-up stats. Customer photos and quotes only with permission, and paid or gifted partners must disclose the relationship.
