<p>If you make cool handmade items for friends and family and want to grow your market a bit, opening up an Etsy shop is an excellent way for the world to see (and buy) your work. Here’s how to set one up.</p>
<p>Keep in mind that you’re required to collect and remit sales tax in some states when selling either tangible or digital items. And to collect and pay sales tax, you need a sales permit. Some states even require you to register as a business regardless. This guide will only show you the steps to setting up an Etsy shop and listing your handmade items—for the business, tax, and legal side of things, be sure to talk with an accountant, lawyer, and your local <a href="https://www.sba.gov/">small business administration</a>.</p>
<h2>Etsy Selling Fees</h2>
<p>Just like on eBay, Swappa, and most other selling platforms, <a href="https://help.etsy.com/hc/en-us/articles/115014483627-Fees-for-Selling-on-Etsy-and-Pattern">Etsy charges fees</a> to sell your handmade stuff. Here’s a quick breakdown:</p>
<ul>
<li>You’ll be charged $0.20 for posting a listing. Listings expire after four months, but you can automatically renew for another $0.20.</li>
<li>You’ll be charged $0.20 for additional quantities that sell. So if you post a listing for a keychain and have 10 of them to sell, you’ll be charged $0.20 up front for posting the listing, and then $0.20 each for the rest of the nine keychains—but only if they sell.</li>
<li>Etsy takes a 5% cut from the total price of your item, including shipping fees. So if you’re selling keychains for $5 each and charging $3 for shipping, Etsy will take a 5% cut from the total $8.</li>
<li>If you decide to use the Etsy Payments platform to accept payments for your shop (which I highly recommend), you’ll be charged a small percentage fee for that as well. This <a href="https://help.etsy.com/hc/en-us/articles/115015628847">varies by country</a>, but in the US it’s 3% of the total cost plus $0.25. You could use another payment platform if you wish, like PayPal, but you’ll still be subjected to payment processing fees no matter which platform you use.</li>
</ul>
<p>So in total, you’ll be charged 8.5% of the total selling price of your item, plus $0.45. So if you sell a necklace for $50, expect to give $4.70 of that to Etsy as a selling fee.</p>
<h2>Getting Started</h2>
<p>With all that said, if you’re ready to open up your Etsy shop, it’s a pretty simple process. Here’s how to do it.</p>
<p>Start by heading to <a href="http://www.etsy.com">Etsy’s homepage</a> and clicking the “Sell On Etsy” link in the top right corner.</p>

Samsung starts production of EUV-based 7nm LPP process technology

Admin 0 Mobiles 11:40

<img alt="" src="https://images.fonearena.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/Samsung-Hwaseong-Campus-EUV-line.jpg" /> Samsung back in September last year announced that it is working on 7LPP (Low Power Plus) with EUV (extreme ultra violet) lithography technology for smartphones that is targeted for initial production in the second half of 2018. Earlier this Feburary it announced that it is building new EUV (extreme ultraviolet) line in Hwaseong, Korea. Earlier this week the company started wafer production of its revolutionary process node, 7LPP, the 7-nanometer (nm) LPP (Low Power Plus) with extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography technology. The EUV system, which utilizes extreme ultraviolet technology, can perform photolithography process by using a light source with EUV wavelength. In the world of chip manufacturing, realizing finer circuits is vital as it enables integration of more components inside a chip, which helps build those with higher power and energy efficiency. Upcoming EUV scanners will utilize EUV radiation at a 13.5nm wavelength, less than 1/14 of what current ArF excimer laser scanners are able to provide. EUV uses 13.5nm wavelength light to expose silicon wafers as opposed to conventional argon fluoride (ArF) immersion technologies that are only able to achieve 193nm wavelengths and require expensive multi-patterning mask sets. EUV enables the use of a single mask to create a silicon wafer layer where ArF can ...

Andy Rubin’s Essential lays off 30% of its Staff

Admin 0 Mobiles 11:25

<img alt="" src="https://images.fonearena.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/Essential-PH-1_fonearena-01-1024x710.jpg" /> Essential has cut down about 30% of its employees, according to a latest report. This lay off will affect the company's hardware, marketing, and sales divisions. The company has about 120 employees, according to its website. This lay off comes months after the company canceled the plans for the second version of its smartphone; the Essential PH-1 and paused development of a home smart device that would compete with Amazon.com Inc. and Google. Since Essential's first phone struggled to sell due to its relatively high price and software bugs, the company stopped development of its sequel. Of the $300 million funding, the company spent about $100 million developing its first products, and Rubin put Essential up for sale, according to reports. The company is now working on a different phone with a small screen that will try to mimic the user and automatically respond to messages on their behalf. An Essential spokeswoman said: This has been a difficult decision to make. We are very sorry for the impact on our colleagues who are leaving the company and are doing everything we can to help them with their future careers. We are confident that our sharpened product focus will help us deliver a truly game-changing consumer product. Source
