Shop Critique!

[#1]

Hi Team!
There was a lot of posts on the Welcome thread about checking out each other's shops and giving advice/suggestions. So I decided to make a separate thread for it. Whoever posts in this thread, their shop is up for critique. Let's give constructive criticism and be honest since this is a critique and the ultimate goal is to improve our shops.

Hi, can I have honest opinion for my shop’s price, description, look. I want to improve. Thanks.

Hello Banasree, I honestly think your pricing is good just because you are selling real stone pieces and i know how expensive that can be. Another reason why I think you shouldn't drop your prices too much is that people may think that what you're selling isn't genuine or it is cheaply made. But just to see if it will increase sales, I recommend that you have a sale like maybe 20% off and see what happens.

Hi Nandanie, thanks for your opinion. I will try offering some coupons. I am trying to do everything to get some business.
Thanks again, Banasree

Hello Nandanie!

Love your shop and listings! if you want a small bit of advice ( and I'm new at this too) I would say to take some more appealing pics of your items. I recently had my items on a white back drop and changed it to wood and got a bunch more views/ visits since I did.

Hello April!

Thank you so much for the advice. I'll make sure to try that because I haven't been getting much views.

I am new to Etsy and desperately need help with my shop. I get lots of visits but very few sales. ANY advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance annapearlshandmade.etsy.com/

Hi Julie,
Maybe add some more variation of photos of your cushion, pillow and add some more tags to describe the item, what materials etc like you explain in the description. Maybe update your shopping Policies. Make it clear to customers what your offering interns if shipping etc in the US. I’ve only been open since January so still learning the ropes. Also take a look at Renae Christine my 100 first Etsy sales I posted a link above think it’s very good info for any Etsy seller.
Best wishes.
