Views to Sales Conversion - Want to know yours?

[#1]

Knowing how many views you need to make a sale can really help you to understand your business better and what is required by way of marketing.

For example, if you know that you need 30 views to make 1 sale, this is a high conversion rate and means that you don't need a whole load of traffic to achieve sales. It also means that you clearly have a product people want or need.

If on the other hand, you need 500 views to make 1 sale, this is a low conversion rate. This could mean that there are issues with your shop that need addressing like photography, pricing etc., that you are not selling something people want or need or simply that you have a high end market product.

Knowing this conversion rate can really help you and this is why I am offering to give you this for free. If you want to know what your conversion rate is, just post here and I will let you know in this thread.

Figures will be based on the entire duration your shop has been open.

I would love to know mine to @Eureka!!! Please if you don't mind. Right now I'm paying for promotion. So I would love to know if it's a big difference between non pay vs. pay promotion.
Thanks

How helpful! I'd love to know, thanks.

What would you say is the average rate for jewelry stores on Etsy? There are lots of us...

[CSavelsCollectibles]

@Kokoba 1 to 48 - I don't think giving an average would be that helpful since some sellers have conversion rates in the thousands and some as high as yours. Yours is in fact very good and I would consider this a high conversion.

[Former_Member]

Haha wow, I wasn't expecting anything so high. Thank you!!

[GinasCreativeDesigns]

Yes, I would like to know please. I opened my shop June 29,2013 but I didnt actually start posting items and becoming active until December 2013. Not sure if this info would be necessary to find my ratio.

Thanks.

[CSavelsCollectibles]

@GinasCreativeDesigns 1 to 917 - the conversion is based on listings views, if you have no listings, then this does not affect the figure at all.

[LootByLouise]

Wow - my conversion rate it horrible! Any pointers would be appreciated!

[CSavelsCollectibles]

@Jenny, without doing a full shop critique, I cannot be specific as to the reasons why you have a low conversion rate. Please check through this thread for possible reasons.
