Hi Everone - I have just joined Folksy

I have just joined Folksy today, I design and sell lasercut jewellery (Necklaces, Earrings and Brooches etc) -
For the past year I have been selling on Etsy but find the service very poor (And the accounts never match which makes paying Tax a nightmare) -
I have listed 4 items already and will try and get up to 100 listings by next week -
So just wanted to say hi and if anyone has any tips? -
I do have one questions - How do you ship your items, I will be using Royal Mail Large Letter Service (Etsy integrated with Royal Mail Click and Drop which saved a huge amount of time preparing packages) - I am not sure Folksy works on this? (Advice please)

Welcome to Folksy Rachel

Hi Rachel! Folksy is a lovely place to be - such a friendly & supportive community. Afraid I can’t help on the postage front - I’m lucky enough to live quite close to the post office & it’s a quiet one so not too much queuing, so have never needed to do the click & drop. I’m sure someone here will be able to advise.
Good luck with it all - your shop is looking fab already - love the rainbow in your banner :smile:

Hello Rachel! Welcome to Folksy! I hope you like it here…Folksy is smaller site than E* and the customer service is definitely better and quicker here.

Hi Rachel
Welcome to Folksy which is a very friendly and supportive place to be.

Postage ? I have a very local village office, nearer and more convenient to me then any other drop off point and always post there… as it helps to keep her open and I would only save 5p per parcel by doing it online.
99% of my packages are small package anyway, not large letter so can’t put them in the post box.

Hi Rachel,
Welcome to the Folksy community, love your necklaces​:raising_hand_woman:t3::heart_eyes:

Welcome to Folksy Rachel. You have a lovely shop. x

Hi. Unfortunately Folksy doesn’t integrate with C&D so you manually have to create the postage label. It’s quite quick to do through, as you just have to put the postcode in and C&D will bring up the address for you

Welcome Rachel, you will find the forums very friendly and helpful. Here’s to lots of sales. :grin:

Welcome to folksy .

Welcome Rachel. Good luck with your venture. Lovely colourful shop. I love your cute hedgehog and turtle.
