"I can't say enough about HJA, and Jami is just so awesome! I started seeing results almost immediately with a few tweaks that she suggested. I had become passive with my listings and sales were declining. She made me excited again and reminded me why I started all this in the first place!"

"I started with HJA in September 2019 with 9 sales. By Black Friday 2019 I had 159 sales! That was from the help and advice from Jami and the HJA group. This is such a supportive uplifting group and I wouldn’t be who I am or where I am without her help. I highly recommend HJA to everyone."

"I joined in May 2017 with 41 Sales in over a year on Etsy. As of Feb 2020, I had made 3800 sales in a very specific target audience. This by far was and continues to be my best investment since the learning & updates never stop! The group of shop owners is beyond helpful and supportive. Just join!"
