CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

What Sellers are saying about Me

"The best business coach for Etsy sellers for sure..."

"Michael's courses have introduced me to a whole new world of business on Etsy that is clearly effective and works! I couldn't be more happy with everything that I've learned and all of the sales I'm now getting. If another seller ever tells me that they are struggling to grow their Etsy business I immediately refer them to Etsy Shop Builder."

- Victoria R.

"I am so glad that I tried this before giving up..."

"I was almost at the point of giving up on Etsy until a close friend convinced me to learn from Etsy Shop Builder. After taking the leap of faith and purchasing one of Michael's courses, I  ended up making just over $4,000 in just 2 weeks from just implementing what i was learning in the course step by step. I was so blown away."

- Jeff B.

"...my dreams have become a reality..."

"I started using the Etsy Shop Builder courses about a year and a half ago and I'm seriously so glad that I did. From then to now I have made $142, 576! I recommend Michael religiously to anyone that is struggling or isn't making the money that they truly deserve. My shop was doing about $50K a year and this finally got me to six-figures."

"...hands down the best courses I've ever taken..."

"Michael is the real deal when it comes to growing your Etsy shop and business. I've taken other courses that seemed to be basic and common sense stuff that doesn't help at all, but I have to get admit, getting these Etsy Shop Builder courses have easily been the best investment I have ever made in my business and in myself."

- Natascha S.

"...my family finally takes my business seriously..."

"I've made 26 new sales on Etsy in the last 9 days which is HUGE considering I've only been making about a sale a month. These courses are so helpful and as long as you just follow and do each step as it says then it's basically impossible to fail. Thank you so much for helping me finally get my handmade business off of the ground Michael!"

- Monica G.

"...this has been the best year of my entire life!"

"Michael, I can't tell you enough how much I appreciate all that you are doing for me. I am totally amazed at all the new things that I am learning. This is so much fun! I just wish that everybody that is struggling would take advantage of your trainings and courses because it's obvious that they work. They really don't know what they are missing."
