Hey what’s up everyone? I hope everyone is doing good and having fun today. So for today’s article I would like to share to everyone how I manage to sell my handmade crafts online. And also to give you some glimpse on how you can sell items or products online. I am using shopee by the way. I don’t have enough space for my phone that’s why I didn’t download any e-commerce application aside from shopee. And I am more familiar using this application more than anything else. So for this particular article I will show you how I was able to earn extra money in selling my handmade crafts on shopee.

Adding Products

On your personal shopee account, go and click at the “my shop” which is located at the upper left corner of the application. Right after you click on it, you’ll see a new tab directing you to your shop where you can manage selling your items. There you’ll see where you can add a product or your items you want to sell.

After adding your products, you just have to wait for someone to purchase your items. You can also boost it for free at the maximum of 4 hours so that other people or users can see it.

Shipping an Order

What to do after someone put your items on their cart and confirmed their order? You just need to click “to ship” on your shop menu. You can see there all your confirmed orders and you can manage it by arranging the day of its pick up. You can choose the exact date on when you want your items to be pick up. Then packed your items very well so that when it reached your buyers, it is still in good condition and they could give you a high rating. Please make sure that the address you put in your pick up area is correct so that the rider wouldn’t have a hard time looking for your address.

Completing an Order

When your parcel has been picked up by the rider, all you need to do is to checked your shopee application for shipping updates. Usually with my experience it will only take 2 to 3 days before it could reached the buyer. And then after the buyer confirmed that he received his/her parcel, you’ll get the payment right away. It will be forwarded to your account in just a few days. And lastly there’s an option where you can also give ratings to your buyer.

So there you go, it’s an easy peasy right? Selling product or items online is not that hard to do. We just need to looked for items which can really attract our buyers. Usually they go for more affordable items and shops that offers free shipping. In my case, I sell my handmade crafts from felt cloth. And I only got a lot of inquiries during christmas season because of my handmade ornaments. One of the reason why I am busy last month. But now, I think I can rest for a while because I only received few inquiries in the last days. My income isn’t as big as the other big time shop, but it helps us a lot because it can cover some of our monthly bills. The rest of my earnings will be save for our future travel next year.

Closing Thoughts

This pandemic helps most of my countrymen by selling products online. A lot of us were affected by lockdowns and some even lost their respective jobs. At first we thought the lockdowns would just stay for a month, but we were all wrong because it last longer than that. All of our hard earned money were all spent up because our monthly income has stopped too. Selling my handmade crafts online save our Christmas last year. Because of it, we also settled our monthly bills on time and some of our earnings were spent on our daily needs. It only shows that God will always give us another way to provide for our needs.

There are plenty of sites that make it possible to sell or buy online. With us everything is sold no matter how old or used. What is trash to one is valuable to someone else? Clear photos and a good description are a must (saves time answering questions).

The biggest problem is you pay and never receive your order. That's the main problem if a site doesn't help you to guarantee you pay for scam.

Instead of boosting we remove the add and post it again so it shows at the top. Here many old adds are not removed which makes it hard too.

Great you found a way to survive. Those lockdowns will never end. We will never go back to normal.

Thank you dear for your time in reading my article and for your upvote as well. I guess in these modern times, we really need to be extra careful with everything we are doing. We can’t guarantee how safe it is using online transactions because even the trustworthy company were also invaded by hackers and scammers. i just hope these kind of people will stop because at the end of the day, karma will get back to them.
