What Our Clients Say
I am incredibly grateful to Masha because, during this one-hour consultation, I identified 8–10 points that will help me improve my sales. It was definitely worth the money, and considering the results and the value I received, I would even say that it could cost more. During the call, we also started the process of removing a negative review, which was amazing because the consultation included not only advice but also real action. I have also followed Masha since I started working on eBay, approximately 17 years ago, and I have not found this level of value and content quality anywhere else in the industry. A huge thank you for your work, Masha and the Western Bid team 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
A huge thank you to Maria! I had been watching her YouTube channel for almost a year and finally decided to book a consultation after spending two months working up the courage. I booked it and waited for the day as though it were my birthday. During the consultation, we discussed many different issues. Maria answered all my questions and pointed out mistakes in my listings, and I completely agree with her observations. I now have a clear direction for growth and improvement. I hope this will help me become more successful, and in a year I plan to return for another consultation so that I can expand my product range.
I am very satisfied with the review of my shop. I chose the most comprehensive service package. Everything was clear and straight to the point, but it never felt dry or impersonal. Maria approached the review thoroughly, had clearly prepared in advance, and did not waste consultation time analyzing the listings during our conversation. I received specific recommendations on what to change in the descriptions, photos, and positioning of certain products. I learned how my shop looks to an international buyer, which general mistakes it contains, and which smaller details should be improved. I also learned about new niches that may be profitable in my field and those that are unlikely to have potential. Before the session, I submitted several questions that we discussed. During the session, I wrote down 27 action points for my shop. I do not regret the money I spent, especially when it is deducted from the WB balance rather than directly from my pocket. At the end of the session, I thought that after some time I might book another review for my other project.
Yesterday I had a consultation with Etsy shop launch expert Maria Kaganovich, and I was very satisfied. Maria is a true professional who explained the details of working on the platform in a clear and accessible way. We discussed the key aspects of creating a successful shop, including profile design, product description optimization, and the use of keywords to attract customers. Maria also helped me better understand how the Etsy algorithm works and how to use it to my advantage. I now feel much more confident that I can launch and develop my shop correctly. The consultation was highly informative and well structured, while Maria was friendly and responsive, which made working with her both pleasant and productive. Thank you
