I need accountability to maintain my motivation. I have found this with PES. The coaches I have interacted with online and in person have provide the positive 'nudging' I need when I start to doubt my progress. Everyone is generous with encouragement and inspiration.

This company is amazing! The coaches are knowledgeable, supportive, and provide so much useful, practical information that can actually be applied right away. I’ve learned a lot from working with them and truly appreciate the value they bring. Highly recommend to anyone looking for real guidance and support.

The decision to enter into a coaching agreement was, at least for me, a significant commitment. Before I signed up, I had the opportunity to be coached by Tanner spontaneously. He listened carefully and gave me feedback that wasn't fluff—it was real, insightful, and exactly what I needed to hear. I knew it immediately.

I signed up right away.

Since then, Tanner and his team have OVERDELIVERED in every possible way. I have received far more value than I paid for, and many of the most impactful lessons and tools were things I didn't even realize I needed—but they were EXACTLY what I needed.

I've now committed to a second year because this is a journey, not a destination. And somehow, it just keeps getting better and better - and so do my sales!

My niche is for teachers. I love making physical items (T-shirts, tumblers, signs, etc.) and creating digital products (lesson plans, worksheets, presentations, etc.) that are focused around using technology in the classroom. Because I was dragging my feet, my coach had me focus on only one area - I chose digital products. However, it took over a year for me and the PES team to click and finally get on the same page.

With the help of Tanner, my coach, and the PES team, things for me are now moving. I'm continuing to make digital products and am listing them ASAP. I'm getting a couple sales every week or so. (Much better than none at all!)

Even when I was frustrated and "not showing up" (not doing the work I needed to do), I had continued encouragement from Tanner and my coach. They never gave up on me, even when I gave up on myself!! That is what makes this program the absolute best that you'll ever find!! ACCOUNTABILITY!! The PES Team will hold you accountable for the work that you need to do to make your Etsy shop successful. They will tell you that it is not their shop; it is yours! Therefore, you need to put the work into it. However, The Team will also tell you that they will back you 100% if you need their help! And they will provide whatever help you need!

I am eternally grateful to Tanner and the PES Team! Without them, I would never have learned this much or felt this confident about selling products online!

I knew I needed help in getting my Etsy shop to a business not a hobby. I set it up during Covid because my husband thought I should have a back up job in case I didn't get to do my job again. While that didn't happen, I knew I needed help to really turn it into that back up.
Tanner and his team listened to what I told them and then set me up on the course to make it happen. I'm in my second year of the program, I've attended two Beach Retreats and an Intensive. Each time I attended an event or a training call, I come away with something new to apply and my shop continues to grow.
The personal one-on-one coaching is great for keeping me accountable to my business plan and pointing me in the next direction.
I've seen my shop more than double in sales and activity since I put their guidance into action.
The whole PES crew is so warm and welcoming, even giving me the support I needed while battling cancer last year.
If you are looking for help with anything about an Etsy shop, this team is your best choice!

PES is an amazing program. The concept of plan the work & work the plan is a basic tenant for this progam. I've learned so much in suh a short time. The support from everyone here has been amazing.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Joining the Passive Earners Society has been one of the best investments I’ve made in myself and my business journey. What I appreciate most is the value you receive for the cost. The training, resources, support, and community have given me tools and knowledge that I genuinely use and continue to learn from.

That being said, this is not a “done for you” program where you sit back and magically make money. You absolutely have to be willing to put in the work, stay consistent, show up, and apply what is being taught. The people who succeed are the ones who stay accountable and take action.

What I respect about this program is that it provides the roadmap, education, and support system, but your results depend on your effort. You truly get out of it what you put into it. If you’re coachable, willing to learn, and ready to work, the opportunities and potential are definitely there.

For me personally, I’ve seen success, growth, and a much better understanding of building income streams online. I’m grateful I took the leap and would absolutely recommend it to someone who is serious about changing their situation and willing to do the work.

I've been mostly satisfied with the training and curriculum I received from PES since I joined in December 2025. However, it's going to take a LONG time to recoup the investment you have to make. Also the initial cost doesn't include the in-person events; those have a steep cost as well. My coach recently changed, which was a bummer as I really loved my first coach. I didn't feel an instant connection with my new coach, which made me somewhat frustrated, but I'm doing my best to give her a fair chance. With the recent "upgrades" to the program, the 1:1 coach seems even more important so we shall see what the future holds.

Pricey - Yes, Content Available - Yes, Replays Available - Yes - Guides and Worksheets - Yes - Personal Coach - Yes- Access to Other Coaches in specific areas - now Yes- Acknowledgement and Accountability - Yes - They have provided so much information - But the Support Structure is Amazing - can they guarantee results - no - no one can - Can they do their part to help me - Yes (but they can't do my part) But if I put in the work and effort - they definitely help, guide, advise, and encourage - Good Investment if you're serious about doing the work- Thank You

I feel so blessed that PES is providing so much support from Tanner and his GREAT team. The resources that are provided to us is so helpful and honestly I couldn't do this without them. My sister and I are getting to launch on June 1st...we are so excited. Can't wait to hear that first Cha-ching ! Blessings to our PES community. Tara thanks for all your support and knowledge!

PES is truly one of a kind! The new structure and organization they’ve brought to the program has been completely game-changing and honestly couldn’t have come at a better time. As I continue leveling up in my business, it feels like my coaching support is leveling up right alongside me (and they were already amazing!)—and that has been such an incredible experience.

I’ve worked with two different coaches, and both have been supportive, knowledgeable, encouraging, and genuinely invested in my success. You can tell they truly care, not just about your business growth, but about you as a person and entrepreneur.

One of the biggest benefits for me has been the mindset work. Building a business comes with so many challenges and self-imposed limitations, and having the support, guidance, and accountability to work through those has been invaluable.

The program is absolutely what you make of it. If you show up, put in the work, and take advantage of the resources available, the value is unbelievable. There is an incredible amount of training, tools, support, and information packed into this program. I’m so grateful to be part of this community and excited for what’s ahead!

Highly recommend to anyone serious about growing their Etsy business and themselves along the way. 💛

I joined PES thinking I might learn a few Etsy tips. Instead, these people grabbed my shop by the shoulders, looked me dead in the eye, and said, “Bestie… your tags are a crime scene.”

The coaching has been absolutely game-changing. Every call somehow feels like equal parts business strategy, therapy session, algorithm witchcraft, and a pep talk from someone who drank three iced coffees and believes in me more than I believe in myself.

Before PES, my Etsy strategy was basically:
✨ vibes
✨ panic
✨ changing my thumbnail 14 times
✨ crying in lowercase

Now? I actually understand SEO, customer psychology, branding, and why Etsy was ghosting me harder than a man holding a fish in his dating profile picture.

The private coaching alone is worth its weight in emotional support Diet Coke. They don’t just hand you generic advice — they actually help you understand YOUR shop, YOUR customer, and how to stop making decisions based purely on caffeine and chaos.

My shop is growing, my confidence is back, and I now casually use phrases like “conversion optimization” as if I wasn’t fighting for my life in Canva six months ago.

There is so much meat to this program. Tanner and the coaches are knowledgeable, encouraging, and supportive. I have learned so much and never experience a boring moment. It’s a great value for the money. After retirement I wanted to do something productive and challenging. PES is exactly that. The learning curve is greater than I expected, but I persist. I expect great things to come.

While I had buyer’s remorse in the beginning, I don’t feel that way now. When I put in the work, rewards come.

I had unexpected coaching changes, but my new coach and I have clicked and had a very productive coaching call recently. Coaching calls are very helpful…enough push and accountability to get you and your shop moving in the right direction.

Recent changes to the first year curriculum have been a great resource and the second year business building curriculum is speaking to my needs as an entrepreneur. The new division of specialties among the coaches is a great concept…they each have separate strengths and they have matched them well to the phases of the curriculum.

The addition of coaching calls geared to each phase is going to be a great focus for all participants.

Although the program is pricey…they continue to over-deliver…they listen to the needs of participants and respond with solutions.

A Honest Review of PES: My Journey from Skeptic to Believer
It started with watching the Etsy Effect. My mind started racing — what a way to make money, how hard can this be? I joined PES quickly learning there is far more to building a successful Etsy store than simply opening one.
I signed up expecting a small-group coaching experience — and honestly, expecting PES to do most of the heavy lifting. I showed up to the first meeting in Florida completely overwhelmed. There was so much information, so many moving parts. I eventually found a niche to get started, but I still felt like I was spinning my wheels. Looking back, the problem wasn't the program — I wasn't in the right headspace to receive feedback, which led to some friction with one of the coaches early on.
The second meeting in January was a turning point. Something shifted. I was able to let my guard down, actually listen, and start absorbing what was being taught.
Then came March — and wow. Total mindset shift. I showed up ready to set up, listen, and learn. And that's when I really started to feel the difference. I felt genuinely heard. The PES team has made meaningful improvements to the program, taken time to invest in me personally, and recognized that I think a little differently. Rather than pushing me into a one-size-fits-all approach, they've worked with me toward my own goals.
What also sets PES apart is their integrity. They guide you to identify your own next steps so you're truly invested in your growth. They're honest — but they deliver that honesty in a way that never makes you feel small, which in my experience is rare and worth highlighting.
The program is absolutely worth the investment. But here's what I'd tell anyone considering it: come in with clear expectations and an open mind. When you speak up, they listen. The results are there — you just have to be ready to meet them halfway.

I joined PES not quite a year ago. From my first experience with the beach retreat, I knew these people were special. They are 100% genuine when they say they want you to succeed and that they are there to help you. It’s also been a privilege to watch the program grow and evolve in the short time that I’ve been a part of it they are continuously working to improve the program, so their members get the best experience possible.

I joined in November 2025 not knowing what I was about to be apart of. I took part in the Etsy Effect training and was like, I need this knowledge and whatever else they can give to support my Etsy quest. For awhile, I wasn't sure about the program, but I made the investment to better me, my skills, and my shop. There were highs-watching a new product get seen and eventually purchased, intense training sessions, gentle guidance when I needed a clearer path without saying go here and do this; and lows-having a product torn apart in a live coaching without giving me any notice or a chance to defend it by the coach and other students (still rubs me the wrong way when I think about it), but it is what it is...
Then about 45 days ago. I had an opportunity to open a second shop for a group on the Blessed App. That shop has been an absolute monster for me (4.7% conversion rate and 27 sales). That's when it hit me that all the previous struggle and work had been preparing me for this shop and new growth.
There has been a huge revamp of the program, and it is for the better I feel. Things are organized into phases, training videos align to the phases that they're a part of, and support seems to be at a whole new level. Yes this course comes with a heavy price tag for a year, however for an owner and a group of coaches to meet you where you are and to invest the amount of time and resources into you and your shop is easily 4 times what you pay. If you're on the fence, take the chance on yourself and just do it.

I started out very skeptical about anyone or any group giving advice on Etsy Shops. There are so many people out there claiming they can make a difference and they all seem to have different approaches and opinions. I looked into several after signing up for the Etsy Effect. That got me intrigued on what I could get done with my shop and where it could go. I chose Passive Earners Society without knowing much about Tanner and his team nor about Makers Gonna Learn.

I joined in November of 2025 and was completely unsure or even confident in the company and what I could do. After joining I was BLOWN away by all of the information, help and support that they provided. In January I attended their PES Summit and fell in love with everyone and left with a major commitment to my shop.

When I started we averaged about 3-4 sales a month, currently we are averaging 2-3 sales a DAY. Last year our total revenue was $2506 while this year we are already over $10,000.00.

While I do think we would have EVENTUALLY gotten our shop to a productive monthly income, we would never have been able to do it so quickly or without getting seriously frustrated and defeated. I CANNOT express how grateful I am that my girls and I joined PES and can't wait to see where we will be a year from now.

Is PES an big investment, yes it is, but I can tell you it is already paying off for us BIG TIME. You won't find the community, the help, the advice or the curriculum anywhere else. Tanner and his team excel at giving you more than you would ever expect and their ethics are unmatched in this industry. If you want to explode your shop, give PES a go.

Love the videos, and the coaches are super nice, but I expected a bit more structured layout with more direct guidance with this price point. I realize so much of it is up to the individual learner, but I suppose I thought that there would be a bit more structure meaning...you need to do this better or this looks good, but here is what is going on. I did put in some requests for reviews and did what I thought was suggested, but I feel stuck still and haven't felt like I've progressed at all in these 3 months except getting up 100 listings.

I wasn't sure what to expect from the Etsy Effect seminar. As I saw what was presented, and especially how Tanner dealt with various people asking questions, I knew that i wanted to know more. I was afraid it would be too expensive for me but them realized I could tap into my retirement account. I would invest in myself. I still have a way to go but the distance I have come so far has been priceless. I expect to earn back my investment many times over. This has really opened up my way of thinking and confidence in my abilities. I just needed someone to show me the way. Thank you.
