I'm so pleased I found this group. Didn't realise how much I didn't know. It's great to be able to message/email with any questions, no matter how small, the answer always comes back promptly and the group as a whole is very supportive. I would definitely recommend joining especially if you're a newby to Etsy, social media etc.- so many hints and tips to get you going and to elevate your business. Basically, just a friendly, easy going group where all the answers are! Thank you, Monica

The critique from Handmade Bosses was absolutely fantastic! It offered incredibly detailed and precise suggestions for enhancing my shop. There were numerous changes I needed to implement, and the critique highlighted various facets for improvement. The team thoroughly examines every element of the shop rather than offering one-size-fits-all advice. I appreciated that they didn't push additional paid options like many other experts do. I wholeheartedly recommend this shop critique service to anyone with a shop, whether it's new or expanding! Thank you, Jayne, for providing such an excellent critique!

I am so thankful to Steph and her lovely team at Handmade Bosses as they really do walk you through building your Etsy shop step by step.
Since following Steph’s words of wisdom and advice, my Etsy shop has started to thrive and I am actually making fairly regular sales!! 🥳🥳🥳
I would recommend this course to anyone who is looking to start on Etsy, or to build up and expand their Etsy shop!
Steph and her team are on hand to answer questions and concerns you have and although I am only 12% through the course, I have learnt SO much already.

Great assistance by email. Sorted out my issue efficiently.
Great company with very helpful advice - I've bought a few brillant courses from them. 🥰

I started the HBSA in June 2024 this is a course with a wealth of knowledge on how to turn my handmade business into a successful ETSY business. With step by step tutorials on how to make my handmade business a success.
In November 2024, I took the plunge and joined the RISE community. I was honestly terrified about the financial commitment at the time, and I really wasn’t sure if it would be worth it, but I can hand-on-heart say I’m so glad I did. No regrets at all.
I’m definitely someone who learns best by doing, not just reading or watching videos, and that’s exactly why RISE worked so well for me. If I hadn’t jumped in, I think I’d still be stuck in the same place, going round in circles and feeling totally lost. But instead, I’ve gained so much knowledge and clarity; it’s made such a difference to moving forward with my handmade business.
One of the biggest highlights has been having direct access to Steph and Jayne from HBSA every week. They’re so supportive and down-to-earth, and the weekly lives have been amazing.
In all honesty, having the community has been such a huge part of it. We all go through ups and downs along the way, but being surrounded by people who get it and can relate, support you, and share what they’ve learned makes such a difference. It’s a space where we grow together, and that has been so powerful for me.

The support I have received the past year has completely changed my business. The RISE program has helped me really know what I want to do and create a plan to do it. Having experts available to guide me takes away the stress. I would HIGHLY recommend this to anyone who is starting their business, already in it, or someone who works full time and has a side hustle.

I’ve had the absolute pleasure of being part of the Handmade Boss Success Academy (HBSA)—a fantastic, supportive student community led by a team of knowledgeable handmade business strategists and Etsy experts. The modular, step-by-step course within HBSA is brilliantly designed, guiding you through every essential stage of building and running your own handmade product-based business with clarity and confidence.

In addition to the HBSA, I also joined the R.I.S.E one-to-one program, which provided deeper, personalised support tailored to my unique business goals. Both HBSA and R.I.S.E have been absolutely vital in helping me learn, grow, and successfully launch my handmade business.

If you’re serious about turning your creative passion into a thriving business, this is exactly the kind of guidance and community you need. I’m so grateful to be part of it!

As an etsy business that is already well established, I was considering in investing in this concept to help train some new staff etc. I asked a few simple questions via their fb site, is the seo info consistently updated to be in line with 2025 and can the monthly subscription be cancelled anytime? My post was declined, seems only newbies to etsy are the shops gushing over this info. There are no recent reviews hence my questions also no reviews from established etsy businesses. I find it extremely unprofessional as a business owner myself to decline a post as it's not inline with what you are trying to advertise.

Great communication/team feel and a solid structured learning plan which is what I need.

Jayne from Handmadebosses did a shop audit on my etsy website and I enjoyed listening to all the constructive feedback. She went through every aspect of my shop, and went into my listings in detail. It has really helped me to gain knowledge on precise steps to take which I can focus on putting into action with my new seasonal range that I will be selling. It is defiently something I will refer back to each time I wish to make changes to improve my shop, making it even more exciting knowing I am headed in the right direction. Thank you for your help

My absolute go to for any small business advise and support. Worth it's weight in gold. The free events lives and work shops are fabulous. I joined up for the paid course and it's already paying for itself. If your serious about your small business it us a must!

I'm loving the monthly social media prompts and templates. They are so easy to customise and really help when I'm feeling a bit lost on what to post. I now do mine weekly, and use the scheduling option to post, so no matter how my morning/day is going, I know I have posted something for that day.
Really appreciate all the work and ideas, I personally would be lost without them. Thank you.x

This course is amazing. So much info it's crazy! Constant support from email and Facebook group which I love.

I'm loving being a part of the HBSA, and am working through the course, I'm only a little way through, but have already learnt so much. I'd highly recommend joining, Steph and the team are amazing and always on hand with words of encouragement or support. I love that I can work through at my own pace as well. I've just had a very positive and informative listing audit, with words of praise and some things to implement, I liked how positive it was.

When I signed up to the course, I hadn't really took any notice of my Etsy store properly. It was just a side hustle to make extra money. Since joining this great course, it has made me look at my business with a fresh set of eyes and a positive mindset. The course is packed with an abundance of advice, and the staff always answer any questions and are always there for guidance and encouragement

I am really enjoying the course. Lots of advice given when I need help along the way. I have a big journey ahead of me, and the work to do is mine, but I am confident it will work for me and this HBSA course gives me support and advice when I need it along the way.

Hand made bosses team have been amazing. Always available to answer questions and so supportive. Jayne audit my listing and gave me a fully detailed review on how to improve and make it better, with lots of tips and advice.
Thank you to all the hand made bosses team

I recently had a listing audit done, which was so incredibly helpful! I expected to get something in writing, but instead, I got a 15 minute video walking through my listing so I could see exactly what she was talking about while she was talking. There was a great balance of affirmation for the stuff I was doing well and very concrete tips to make it better. I'm always a little nervous about critiques like this because sometimes it's just hard to hear what you're not doing well. But Jayne was so encouraging even with her suggested changes. Excellent experience!

Very honest and well explained. It all makes sense, and I will start working on the things pointed out. Thank you Jayne for my review :-)

Very helpful critique of my shop. Gave me loads of good suggestions for improvement.
