PIF = Pay It Forward = To put up a free listing in your Etsy shop and do it expecting nothing in return. (Off Etsy same thing, doesn't have to be a shop listing, just something nice you do:)
It is not expected that the buyer of a PIF must reciprocate, but we would love to seee you list a PIF in your own shop, or do something positive off/on Etsy. Maybe mentoring, helping someone w/an online issue, etc.
I have had a lot of newbies asking me lately about this widespread Etsy practice. A lot of them not understanding the point. Here is the points, (as I see them).
More Feedback - Especially for new sellers and older ones that can always use a boost!
Reputation - There are enough bad apples on Etsy and it can only improve your own standing w/other shops.
The Spirit of Giving - Doing something for no other reason than to be nice feels really good:)
Yes, I am in an unusually positive state of mind for moi! That's because sales are up, hot temperatures are down, and I still have all of my internal organs intact!!! For those of you who missed it, I almost had my appendix/gall bladder out last week, they couldn't decide which so they sent me home!!! LOL
Have a Positively Peaceful Day!
