I am looking for an Etsy shop owner or experienced Etsy virtual assistant to test Cayana, a new web application for managing Etsy listings.
This is a small, paid product-testing project—not a permanent full-time position. The initial test should take approximately 60–90 minutes. There may be opportunities for further paid testing if we work well together.
IMPORTANT REQUIREMENT
You must either:
• Own and currently manage an active Etsy shop; or
• Regularly manage an Etsy shop for a client and have the shop owner’s permission to connect it to Cayana for testing.
The shop should preferably have fewer than 100 active listings. General knowledge of Etsy without access to a real shop is not sufficient for this particular project.
WHAT THE TEST INVOLVES
You will:
• Create an account and connect an Etsy shop using Etsy’s official authorization process
• Import the shop’s listings into Cayana
• Explore the application while sharing your screen
• Perform a few genuine listing-management tasks
• Make selected low-risk changes and sync them to Etsy
• Explain what you find clear, confusing, useful or disappointing
• Report any bugs or problems you encounter
You will never be asked to share your Etsy password. We will agree in advance which listings and changes are safe to use for testing.
WHO I AM LOOKING FOR
You should:
• Have genuine, recent experience managing Etsy listings
• Be comfortable speaking English during a screen-sharing session
• Be willing to think aloud and give honest feedback
• Have reliable internet and screen-sharing capability
• Be available for a video call during mutually agreed hours
Professional software-testing experience is not required. Authentic Etsy experience and thoughtful feedback are more important.
PAYMENT
The initial payment is $30 for a 60–90 minute session, including a short written summary afterwards.
HOW TO APPLY
Begin your application with the word CAYANA and answer all of these questions:
Do you own an Etsy shop, or manage one for somebody else?
What is the public URL of the Etsy shop?
Approximately how many active listings does it have?
Which Etsy tasks do you perform regularly?
Have you used tools such as Vela, eRank, EverBee or other Etsy management software?
If it is a client’s shop, do you have permission to connect it to a third-party application for testing?
Are you comfortable sharing your screen and speaking aloud during the test?
Briefly describe one real listing-management task you would like to try using Cayana.
Please answer the questions individually. Applications that do not demonstrate access to a genuine Etsy shop will not be considered.
