Etsy in People Magazine

While browsing a recent issue of People magazine, I was pleasantly surprised to see Etsy mentioned not once, but twice in the issue!

I first came across this advertisement for the USPS. I'm not sure how they chose which businesses to represent in this ad, but I was happy to see Etsy right alongside a big name business like Bass Pro!
  
Then while reading "100 Reasons to Love America" Etsy was listed on the first page (after Matthew McConaughey, of course). It is listed as "Born in Brooklyn, it's an online emporium for all things artisinal".

With all the processing problems that Etsy had last week, it sure was nice to see something positive about Etsy :)

  1. This is pretty cool! One of the magazines I look at (Country Living, maybe?) seems to include a lot of products made by Etsy sellers, too, and I'm always pleased to see that.

  2. That's great! My sister-in-law reads that magazine. I've come across Etsy mentioned in lifestyle magazines over here :)

  3. That is so exciting for Etsy! I love those USPS ads since I sell on Etsy and eBay and they both show up on the trucks. Creative advertising for all involved!

  4. Cool! Good press. Maybe the rising Etsy tide will raise our little boats?

  5. Those order processing problems were super annoying! They seem sorted out now...hopefully! Anyway, it's great to see Etsy getting positive publicity!

  6. I saw that ad too but I don't think the one I saw was in People so hopefully it's being put in lots of magazines. Still is hard to find us from just the Etsy site but it's a big help to make peeps aware of it!

  7. Go Etsy! I've seen Etsy mentioned in a few smaller craft magazines in Australia but not usually publications like People.

  8. I know... the processing problem was so confusing... I'm glad it worked out somehow :) One reason that I'm still on etsy - it works for me :) ..BUT I HOPE MORE ADS TO SEE SO WE CAN STAY BUSY :)

  10. Edi - I agree when you said it is nice to see something positive said about Etsy. Lately there has been such bad press about Etsy and their policies, that seeing your mention about Etsy in people, and their ad - makes me once again proud that I stayed with Etsy! Also if you haven't been to the Alamo Drafthouse Cinema - definitely recommend! maybe it's just a NY Thing?

  11. I love that! You know I've often thought when people talked about USPS having problems and people not sending mail anymore, "What about Etsy!?" Most sellers ship through USPS, and that's a lot of business! So I'm glad they gave a little nod to Etsy in that ad. Also, I'm working on revamping my Etsy shop right now, and I'm glad my shop has been quiet while Etsy was going through the processing problems. I hope that's all straightened out!

  12. Oh, that's cool!
    I've been doing crossword puzzles for almost two years and ETSY has been an answer several times.
