Ask other sellers about selling on Folksy.


Welcome to Shop Talk!

A second opinion and a little bit of advice from a fellow shopkeeper or two can be extremely helpful. This shopkeeper support forum is a great place to discuss your shop with other sellers and ask for critiques and opinions on your banners, avatars, photography, branding and all that kind of ‘shop talk’ stuff.

A few things to consider:

  • If you are giving advice to other sellers, please always be courteous
    and constructive. Remember our Guidelines!
  • Do not post promotional threads in this category. Use Showcase instead.
  • If you want to talk about what you’re making, please use the Craft Talk category.
  • Do not promote other selling sites or ask for advice about using competitor services.
