Etsy accounting and finances are finally easy for you with the Etsy Seller Spreadsheet.
You make gorgeous products, and you love running your Etsy shop... BUT, you aren't so in love with the other side of your business. You know - the numbers and fees and taxes and that whole accounting side.
Loads of Etsy sellers leave their numbers for the end of the year when the tax deadline comes around. Why? Because working with numbers feels overwhelming and hard. You're a maker, not a CPA!
You're probably not sure of the best way to keep track of your sales, expenses, and tax stuff. And THAT stuff is actually critical to keeping your shop afloat. Keeping track of your books is essential if you want to be profitable.
And deep down, you know tax time would be so much less stressful & headachey if you were a little bit better at keeping track of your numbers monthly.
Paper + Spark's spreadsheets simplify the accounting for you so you can spend more time making, selling, and being awesome. Easy as that! They are full of automagical formulas and come with step-by-step instructions.

"I have to tell you that your spreadsheet has changed my life. I used to have no clue about my income, and now I look forward to inputting it every month! It's taken my from a place of being overwhelmed with the numbers, to feeling like I'm in control and I know what's going on. It's so funny to think that a spreadsheet can really change so much about my life, but yours has!" - Jillian
Six magical ways the Etsy Seller Spreadsheet simplifies your money matters and your business life:
- Quickly import Etsy data - Save time by quickly importing your Etsy sales each month, along with some of your Etsy fees & sales taxes collected. The spreadsheet takes the data it needs for you, making less work for you.
- See all your sales in one place - You can also manually input your sales from all your other sources, such as Paypal, eBay, your own site, craft shows, etc.
- Plug in business expenses & receipts - Your spreadsheet keeps track of your expenses, too. As you make purchases or pay bills throughout the month, you can enter your expenses in the matching category expense tab. Now you'll have precise tracking of your expense totals for tax time and your accountant will love you!
- Make tax time a breeze - The spreadsheet is set up to make tax time simple for you. The revenue & expense categories correlate to the ones on your business' tax forms, making the process of doing your taxes a lot more streamlined and less stressful for you or your accountant.
- Calculate net profit or loss each month - Know instantly whether your biz is making a profit or a loss throughout the year, enabling you to make smarter budgeting and goal-setting decisions.
- Deal with sales taxes - The Etsy Seller Spreadsheet includes a tab that will quickly tell you some of the most important data for your state sales tax return, including total in-state sales each month, and sales per state for economic nexus tracking.

Why A Paper + Spark Spreadsheet?
Traditional bookkeeping software is made with accountants in mind. It’s expensive (and generally requires a monthly subscription payment), bulky, and oftentimes more complicated than a micro business like yours needs. It’s made for any and all types of small businesses, and not specific to YOUR business needs as a handmade biz owner or e-commerce seller. When your bookkeeping software is too complicated, too vague, and support or in-plain-English instruction is lacking, you tend to procrastinate on using it. Not updating your books consistently means severe stress once year end or tax deadlines hit.
Spreadsheets are powerful but simple tools. Partner a well-crafted spreadsheet file designed by an accountant intimately acquainted with e-commerce with clear, understandable instructions and you’ve got a formula for bookkeeping success. You get everything you need to feel empowered by your numbers, and nothing you don’t need.
Paper + Spark has been selling spreadsheets since 2015. We currently support thousands of makers and creative entrepreneurs in doing their books and understanding their money. Our spreadsheets have received countless rave reviews from shop owners. No other bookkeeping solution out there offers our level of step-by-step guidance & support. We also stay up-to-date on e-commerce reporting and platform changes.
With a Paper + Spark spreadsheet, you’ll pay a one-time fee for lifetime access to your files and support. We provide any future year files and updates for free, forever, via the account you create at checkout. You can always reach out in the Accounting Accountability Club, or via DM or email, and get answers to your spreadsheet & bookkeeping questions.
