She proudly held titles such as Miss Black Trans International, Miss Missouri State, Miss Black Trans Kansas, Miss Kansas City Pride, and Miss Kansas City Black Pride. As a writer and aspiring filmmaker, she has used her skills to tell powerful stories highlighting the experiences and struggles of marginalized communities including her own advocating for trans Kansans and Missourians. She continues that work as the Executive Director of the Trans Women of Color Collective (TWOCC).Courtneyshe/herField DirectorEmail: cour...@promomissouri.org
The folks she supported through her work in El Salvador and Boston, including trans women, commercial sex workers, and unaccompanied homeless youth and adults, taught her about their lived experiences and, together, they centered their voices through policy and advocacy actions. Those experiences continue to drive Katy to seek social and racial justice and to interrogate the root causes of inequity, while embracing a strengths-based approach.
With a Bachelor of Science in Public Relations from the University of Central Missouri, Robert has spent over a decade carving out a niche in fast-paced, high-demanding industries. He utilizes his knowledge from nonprofits, political campaigns, and B2C industries to effectively tell stories and drive action within communities.
Growing up in rural Missouri gave her the passion to make sure all voices from numerous backgrounds have a seat at the table. The individuals that influenced that passion were some of the same people that fell victim to the gaps in services that come with being queer in rural Missouri. Lacie has focused much of her nonprofit career on building interpersonal connections that push mission-focused values forward. She continues to grow that passion through her work of building a sustainable, relationship-centered, fundraising strategy.Dany

I really don't know what hapened. I set more than 3 weeks ago a promo code for recently favorited listing and latter when I want to quit offering this type of discount I found that I can't deactivate it, that it is active for all listings and for all time. There is no deactivating possibility. Since then I contacted multiple times Etsy support for a resolution and got not solution, just a kind answer that the issue was sent to engineering team. It's a verry unpleasant situation. As I see it is an issue affecting lot of sellers. Is there some of you who got a pozitive solution? In the meantime i've delisted all my shop in order to not risk sales at a loss. I feel verry unhelpless that Etsy seem to do nothing about.
When you click on details for your coupon and you scroll to the very bottom of the pop up do you have a stop sending offers button? Click on that and no more coupons will go out. If you don't have a stop sending offers button and you contact support again tell them you don't have a stop sending offers button. They will be more likely to fix that than the deactivate button.
I tried everything. There is no way to stop or deactivate the offer and Etsy support didn't come up with a solution or resolving intention. On the other hand, I'm not willing to assume any risk of losing money.
I still have one of my coupons going out (to repeat customers, I suppose) days after I clicked "Stop sending offers". Coupon details page says "This discount applies to your whole shop" while the discount was only for a few certain listings. And yes, "their engineers are aware of the issue and are working hard to resolve it".
There is, so far, no sign that Etsy is going to fix this, and I am not at all sure that this is a "bug" at all because of the evasive answers all of us are receiving from the so-called support staff. What is not at all clear to me is, What would the advantage be for Etsy to treat its' vendors with such disrespect? You Tube is full of reports of vendors abandoning the platform in growing numbers. Thls indifference and evasion is infuriating, and the management knows it. Perhaps Etsy feels it can do just as well without its' vendors? Sure feels like it. The question is, how do the shareholders in this now public company feel about the growing culture of contempt at Etsy. l have been doing my craft full time since 1979- l am not in it for the money but it is expensive to run a studio. Etsy is plainly out-of-touch with such realities.
There are several threads about this problem, I have it too. (The possibility to deactivate the offer and/or stop sending new coupons has disappeared). Etsy technical support stated to me that the engineering team in looking into this but they could not give a resolution date.
I have had this same problem with 2 discount offers for months. Is it not illegal for Etsy to make us offer a discount? I keep checking back to see if I can deactivate but the button still does not appear. I used to offer a sale once every 4-6 weeks but because of this I am no longer offering sales and discounts. Etsy clearly knows about the issue but apparently doesn't think that their sellers are worth fixing the issue for? I can hardly believe that they have not found a resolution to fix this issue after all this time or maybe that don't feel it's worth their time. It is unfortunate because ultimately it affects the buyers in the long run because I will no longer offer larger discounts.
Finally, I got a resolution for the mentioned issue. Today when I opened my discount and sales folder under my still active promo code, I found a message saying that I stopped sending offers and it will remain this way, mentioning that the clients who already favourited some of my listings until i stopped the promo will still receive the offers until the expiration time of this promo, expiration time that I think is automaticaly set up I don't know exactly for how long, 6 month or maybe a year. I don't remember for sure but I know I saw somewhere in the Etsy rules or its updates the duration of promo co
des and other discounts where mentioned. (the msg was "Included listings. This discount applies to your whole shop. You stopped sending offers. No new offers will go out. The offer code will work up until the expiration date for shoppers who already received it, and it will be tracked under your discount stats."
I had the same problem with a promo code that had no way to delete. Contacted Etsy through Chat. After looking at it, said they sent it on to the more technical team. It's a known bug and it would help them to find out how wide spread it is. I asked if that meant 2 abandoned cart promos would be sent out and customers would think they'd get a total of 25% off. They checked and even though the old one says "active" on my dashboard, I was told it is actually deactivated.
You might want to go through chat with your info on your promo codes. Who knows. Maybe if enough people are knocking on their door about this, they might answer.
@PrismTarot You do NOT have to honor any sales that are made using the targeted promo's which you want deactivated & sending offers stopped! You can save your $50 and cancel / refund every order that comes in with those discounts. Simply tell buyers you are not currently accepting discounts! Once you issue a 1-step cancel/refund, buyers cannot leave reviews (even if it says otherwise).
Reading over all these issues, and having the same myself, with the same evasive answers by the Etsy team, I'm no longer messing with discounts. I've lost enough money by trying to hold a competitive price while offering discounts (which they clearly push us to do) but I will now be raising my prices and only offering the regular discount that every seller seems to do. No more confusion between favorite and abandoned cart codes. As a buyer, if I want an item, I don't need a reminder to go back and purchase it
BubbasPrint - I don't use the Ersy ones with errors but I do use my own. I do my version of the tier selling -
10% off everything but newest listings
15% off if purchasing 2 or 3 items
are the two most common ones I use. It works for me but every shop has their own costs and price points they have to meet.
I raise prices on items the market can sustain and lower pricing on older objects to reduce inventory.
I also redo photos, combinations/sets and definitely the titles and tags. All of it is a lot of work and research.
Lol Anyone who thinks selling online is just sitting back and watch the money roll in - has no realistic idea what all is involved.
