Did you set goals for your shop?

[#1]

Do you have any goals set up for your shop? Setting goals and writing out an ideal 'roadmap' could be really helpful for your Etsy shop. If you do, share your goals here and we'll see if we can help you achieve them!

What would you like to accomplish the coming month, over the next six months, or the next year? (Or, if you dare, over the next five years even?)

My current goal is to have 40 sales by the time 2013 comes to a close, I am at 33 sales so far, so I feel my goal is attainable.

[MeresCrafts]

I would like to get 5 sales a month & get my shop inventory up to at least 40 items by the end of Jan.

My goal is to increase views. Having a hard time getting buyers to see my items for sale.

My goal before the year ends is to have 50 items up. I'll be happy if I make 2-3 sales this month.
Still thinking if i should focus 100% on this or to take a part time job. A lot of thinking to do over the holidays....

[SuperCuteStickers]

My goal is to have 120 active listings, once to that point, basically, I'd be able to relist one a day so I can keep active for SEO and Etsy Search.

[MissTanDesigns]

Yes, my goal was to make it too a 100 sales by the end of the year. I did that and a little more. Yay for me.

[Former_Member]

Surely I have, and I am trying to reach the goal.

[Former_Member]

My goal is to make 3 more sails till Christmas!!! Hope to achieve it! =)

[Former_Member]

Yes, I have set a goal to expand our handmade wedding decor for the Spring. Our products are affordable and eco-chic.

[Former_Member]

Ups!!!! 3 more sales!!! that's what I meant =)

[Former_Member]

My goal is to reach 30 listings by Jan 1st. So far, I only have 12.

[Former_Member]

Some of the goals I am hoping to reach for 2014..

Increase my sales..I am really new to this and currently I am working on building my inventory.

Get more organized on the tracking of raw materials--I have so much in materials and I am not really good at tracking this. I am hoping by end of January to have a good system in place.

To get more views…I am averaging around 10 vies a day. Looking to get around 20 to 30 a day in the first quarter, then continue to increase that number the remaining three quarters.

Maintain my relationships with Etsy vendors. All of my supplies come solely from Etsy Vendors. I want to continue to use Etsy as a source for all my supplies.

Finally, increase my sales. I have only had a few sales thus far..but I know this will change in time.

Great site..I am learning so much from all of you!!!!

[Ankleknits]

Yes uhuuu ! got 1 sale! And I'm so thankful for that!

[Former_Member]

I do, my current goal is 5 sales for my first month open. I am already at 2 sales, 3 more to go. Hopeful but impatient

[MysticVagabond]

Sandra! congrats on your sale!

Alex and Ariana, I hope you get your five sales!

One of my goals right now is to sit down and make some new product. Life has been busy for a bit, and I haven't been making much new or putting much new up in my shop. I think that probably hurt me for the Christmas craze. So, I will encourage myself to work on making new items!

[Former_Member]

My goal is to stick with it this year! Last year, I listed a few items, didn't know how to promote, and just gave up fast. This year, I've gotten some amazing friendly advice from fellow Etsy-ers and started adding more to my shop. I've had three sales in the last month! I feel motivated to create and keep promoting myself and others. So far I'm having a blast now that I know a few more things!

[Former_Member]

AHHHH! So excited--my goal was to have 50 sales from August through the end of the year. This weekend I reached that goal!!! Yay!!!!

[Former_Member]

My goal is to increase views and sales!

[Former_Member]

Hello Everyone! I am new to the team and fairly new to Etsy. My immediate shop goals are...
1- increase my item views per day from 13 avg to 26 avg and keep practicing to get more consistent views.
2-One sale a week (baby steps)
3-get ALL my stuff listed. I currently am about halfway done. :)

I am learning as I go and will share everything I learn. So far, I discovered that the more active I am, the more active my shop is. That should have been a no brainer for me, but it was not.
I love to make team treasuries and I will for you all as well.
Does anyone have advice on how to best promote your treasuries to maximize views?

[Former_Member]

YAY Katy!!! Congratulations!!!

[Former_Member]

We reached our sales goal of 10 now it's time to reach our other goal of 50 listings by the end of the year.

[Former_Member]

2. to get everything photographed and listed and when that is done.....
3. (the most important to me) to have time again to make jewelry!
