Like a couple of others on our team, I am new to selling on Etsy. How long did it take for seasoned sellers to make their first sale? Love to hear from you!

Re: First Sales

Just had my first sale!

It took about 3 months, although I only recently filled my front page, got my blog running smoothly, and developed a cohesive look for my images :)
If I had done all these things right away, I doubt it would have taken so long.

Re: First Sales

Hello everyone and welcome the little me to Etsy! Just opened my shop this week and, naturally, no sales yet. Hopefully the first of the many comes soon! :-)

Re: First Sales

Just wanted to say a big thank you to those who have supported my little shop through my first sales (yay!), facebook likes and positive etsy interactions. I am having so much fun on etsy!

Re: First Sales

Hi all!
I've just opened my first store ever on Etsy on 22 April 2014, haven't made any sales, yet.
I also have FB page (www.facebook.com/colorpopcraft) and have so far made three sales (for a total of five items) from there.
I'm wondering whether my etsy thing will work, but on the hand I know my shop still also needs lots of improvement (keep learning everyday).
I'm happy to find such great communities here anyway :)

Re: First Sales

Hang in there. Sales will come. It took me a few months and now I mainly seem to sell to the US. Good luck. :)

Re: First Sales

I opened my shop in June last year and was fortunate enough to make my first sale in 2 days which I only think happened because all my items came up at once in the recent listings and someone who is looking happened to see them.

Since then though I have only made 2 more sales but these have included 6 items for one and 3 for another. It will be interesting following this post to see what has been the story with others.

Good luck with it all, I really hope it works out!

Re: First Sales

Hi guys, I'm new here and just wanted to know if someone could check out my shop for me, make sure everything looks okay and maybe offer some tips? I know I need to add stock regularly and I'm working on that.

I only opened the shop two days ago so not expecting any sales right now, but wanted to make sure I'm doing everything I can. Thanks! :)

Re: First Sales

Hi everyone
I opened my shop in march but only got serious 2 months ago, made 2 sales in the last fortnight both overseas.
I think being Australian maybe we can offer something different and unique.
What I found helpful was a lovely lady from Scotland who is very successful on ETSY that became a critique for my shop, and gave me some great advise.
All the best and never give up.

Re: First Sales

Hi all!
I joined Etsy two days ago and have been busy posting a few pieces of my artwork and greeting card sets. I'm hoping this is the right venue to sell my work as I have two distinct styles - one traditional, simple image photography and the other very creative and blended to look similar to paintings with a twist.
Would love it if someone could have a look at my site and let me know if I'm on the right track - always welcome to feedback because that's the only way that I'll improve. I'd appreciate if you even just dropped a line or a comment or a 'hi'.
Overall, I'm just glad to get my work out there. I've sold to one gift shop and have my first market booked for the end of this month. I'm so excited!!!! Yes, I get excited easily lol.
:-D

Re: First Sales

I have been with Etsy about 17 months and it did take me a few months for a sale. Christmas was the best. Hang in there. It will happen. Good luck.

An abstract eye catching glass clock. Each of these pieces are completely unique and handmade by myself.

These creative and affordable designs make unique features for any home or office. They come with a silent sweeping mechanism and ready to hang or we have an optional 'Oak base plate' for those that require a free standing desk/window sill clock.

Measurements - 24" x 6"

There's rarely a day that goes by where we I am not creating or planning new projects . If there was ever a time to purchase art from an up and coming artist, It has to be now ! With BRAND NEW art, boxed and packed and photography-studio time booked, all i can say is watch this space...

To make sure you keep up to date with the latest creations please join my mailing list and feel free to have a look around at ...
