Hey all and sundry, i'm taking into consideration beginning a tiny business marketing adult sex toys on-line, and i've read that etsy is a great system for handmade and exclusive items. But i'm a bit hesitant on whether or not i can actually sell grownup goods there. Does anybody get any practice or understanding on this?
I've wondered on this too. I've seen all sorts of items on etsy, however i've never note any grownup products. It makes m'amaze if there are specific principles against it, or if it's only not a leading specialized niche on the platform.
I did any study on this a while back just just because i was curious. From what i found, etsy does get policies against promoting grownup items like sex toys. They have pretty strict guidelines on what can and can't be offered on their platform, and anything explicit or adult-oriented is generally not enable.
That's what i was frightened of. It seems like a shame via, just simply because etsy could potentially be a great industry for those kinds of products. I surprise if there are more platforms that are more lenient when it comes to marketing adult items.
I've remark any sellers get around this by listing their adult products under the guise of novelty items or educational tools, but it's altogether a gray region. Etsy has been acknowledged to crack down on listings that they deem inappropriate, so it's not truly worth the risk in my opinion.
Yeah, it sounds like etsy is just not the right platform for offering adult products. I feel they want to sustain a certain image and appeal to a wide audience, so they need be quite strict about what they allow on their web site.
That makes sense. I guess i'll need seem into more selections for marketing my items. Thanks a lot for the input, absolutely everyone.
No problem! Good luck with your business venture. I'm sure you'll find the right system for your items.
