My own machine reached 811K views in its first month. It posted 906 times while I travelled Asia with my mom.

Where your week goes

Making the piece is the part you love. Getting it in front of people who have never heard of your shop is the part that never ends.

Set up in the workshop

Posting every product

Now:

You list a new piece, share it once, and by lunchtime it has sunk below everyone else’s feed.

With AI:

Each product’s photos and maker notes become a week of posts. Here’s the weekly system behind my 906 posts.

Example post (illustrative)

Every mug in this batch has a thumbprint where I held it to trim the base. Yours will too.

New glazes go up Friday. Tap the link to see them first.

Studio and product videos

Next, not included

Now:

Buyers want to see the piece move in the light, but editing phone clips takes an evening you’d rather spend making.

With AI:

Later, explore editing studio footage as a separate workflow. The first build focuses on carousels and faceless posts from your photos and notes.

Titles, tags and descriptions

Next, not included

Now:

Every listing needs a title, 13 tags and a description, written at midnight after a day at the bench.

With AI:

Your photos and notes become a draft title, all 13 tags and a description that matches your posts.

Custom orders and seasonal sales

Next, not included

Now:

Custom-order questions arrive while you’re packing, and the holiday sale gets planned the week it starts.

With AI:

Supply a buyer’s question to draft a reply, or a sale date to outline promotion ideas. Check the details and choose what to use.

What you’ll set up

Start with one posting workflow around your products, and reuse the format with fresh photos and checked details.

  1. Visualize

    Choose an angle that shows your work.

    Review public pages from the shops you compete with and choose an angle to try. Visible posts can suggest ideas, but don’t establish what sold.

  2. Automate

    Draft posts from your product photos.

    Draft carousels and faceless posts from product photos and maker notes. You check the descriptions and availability before testing publishing with supported connections.

  3. Optimize

    Use your results to choose the next batch.

    Review your available results, then choose which colours, angles and hooks to try next. Check the next batch before it goes out.

Your hands, your bench and the finished piece are enough, so faceless content suits a maker’s shop. You build it in The Social Machine.

Questions

Is this an AI course made for Etsy sellers?

No. It’s The Social Machine, my live two-day workshop for business owners who need to be seen. You build it on your own products, so every post shows your work.

Does it write my Etsy listings too?

Not in the two days. Titles, tags and descriptions are possible later applications of the method, outside the first posting workflow.

I don’t want to show my face. Does it still work?

Yes. The first build uses product photos and maker notes for carousels and faceless posts. Filming yourself or editing studio videos isn’t required.

What will I need?

Bring material you’re allowed to use for one account. We’ll confirm the supported setup and any required subscriptions before booking; publishing needs compatible connections.

Hear the next dates first.

Two live days to build one product-content workflow, with reviewed posts and publishing setup to check.
