BUSY - any one else??

[Former_Member]

I guess I was thinking things would slow down a bit after the holidays. My shop is probably 3 times as busy as I was before Christmas, like crazy busy!! Anyone else?? Being my first year selling, I was just wondering if this is a trend after Christmas, or perhaps some unknown publicity is helping my sales??

I'm not ever busy, so maybe I'm not the one to ask. you have some cute valentine's day items. is that what's selling? maybe people can't get enough of spoiling their kids. now that I've seen your shop, I want to figure out who I can buy for.

now that I've looked a little more at your shop you really could raise the price on your rosette headbands. they are super cheap an look like high quality. don't undercharge yourself.

Good for you! Your shop is very cute! What promoting tips can you give the rest of us?

[PoetryUnspoken]

You props are sooooo cute Mandy!
... my shop sales are slow :\ So good for you if you're keeping busy there! :)
Have you checked your shop stats to see what is working for you? Wishing you that it stays like that or better!! :)

[Former_Member]

Good for you! Congrats on so many sales! And no, I am not busy but it will get better.......

[Former_Member]

Your stuff is so beautiful, btw.....

[Former_Member]

Congrats! You know, maybe since Valentine's day is around the corner there will be an influx of shoppers, however, since the holidays have passed I am not seeing much action.

A fellow etsy seller whom I know is selling out her jewelry 5 pieces per day! It probably depends on the actual products you have available.

Ive had two sales since the new year. I got that many all december also. hah. So things are good for me too as long as they keep going like this!

congrats on your success and I love your items I'm not busy my goal is to keep my sales consistent as possible.

[ChantelandMe]

Good for you! Are you able to tell from where the traffic is coming?

I'm not that busy either. I've had 3 sales this week which is wonderful, but been dry as a bone since Monday.

Congrats! I just started my shop and havent had any sales yet, but Im excited to make a sale

I've been watching my stats, and most are just from Etsy search. I have really raised my SEO for google, and see around 15 - 20 hits from there per day. When I post new items on FB, I tend to see more views from there too. I have been working hard to add 1 - 2 new items each day. I'm working on redoing a lot of my photos too, since getting a new camera. But, I guess I'd better get to work on all of my orders at the moment :) Good luck in the New Year everyone!!

I don't know, if that's just me but a lot of my friends just had babies...
Congrats and I hope the shoppers keep coming!

I've had a good month so far too! Most of my sales have been from supplies - I think now that Christmas is over, people are taking time for craft projects. I don't know. I'm not complaining though!

[Former_Member]

I'm thinking of listing more destash supplies now, too. Partly, I think, cabin fever is making folks want to be crafty since the beach isn't happening for most northern climes. ;)

Good for you! Your stuff is so beautiful. please what promoting tips can you give, i recently joined esty Sep, 2011 and sales are so slow. Thank you.

I am swamped and have been since last may! I think our trick is, people are always having babies and getting married. Some of our items are seasonal (I love that some of your stuff looks very valentine's day ish!) but people get married and have babies year round, so we have the opportunity to always be busy! And that's a good thing!

[ParadiseChicJewelry]

I haven't had any sales since last month, so you are doing real well! Hopefully it will pick up for me, but I am in a saturated market.

[Former_Member]

I was pretty busy in early December but that as about it but I also started trading with other Etsy sellers then. I keep hoping things will pick up again for me. Best of of luck in the new year <3 :)

Slowed to a halt at my shop...

[Former_Member]

That is great news! You have some really cute stuff (and models) ! I really slowed down after Christmas, but have had more traffic lately. I needed the break though - I was making treats 14 hours a day for a couple of weeks....I was pooped! Good luck for the whole year through :)

[Former_Member]

You have had so many sales because you have super cute stuff at affordable prices. Congrats! I LOVE your shop it is so adorable.

I'm in the exact same boat ! Perhaps there are a lot of January and February babies? My Facebook page got over 100 new likes in the past 5 days and I honestly can't figure out why.

[Former_Member]

Good Job! My sales have dropped pretty dramatically since the holidays. Hopefully it will pick back up!
