Good to know
Writing an announcement that helps.
What the announcement is for
Etsy says the shop announcement appears under listings on the shop homepage and can be used for important notices such as promotions or vacation updates. It isn't a substitute for your About section, policies or listing details. Keep it short.
A useful announcement is current
When a sale ends or processing times change back, update it. Old holiday dates and stale promotions confuse buyers. Include the most relevant action, without a pushy pitch every visit.
