Coming off Holiday Mode

I#ve recently been on a 5 week long holiday, obviously I went on holiday mode. Now that I'm back i'm struggling to boost up my views and sales to what they were like before. Unfortunately my shop was just starting to take of right before I went on holiday and now everything is back to how it was 6 months ago.
I thought this would happen and was inevitable.
Any tips or advice?
And has anybody else been on holiday mode and struggled to climb back up the ladder?

Re: Coming off Holiday Mode

I had to unexpectedly close last year for a month so I know what it's like. Sure, it takes a few weeks to recover, but I think you'll be back to normal before too long. If you have any new listings that you can add over the next few weeks, that will likely help.
All the best!

Re: Coming off Holiday Mode

I am in exactly the same position as you. I put my shop on holiday mode for 5 weeks and took it off last night. Was doing super well on sales before and now it is really quiet. Hoping it is going to pick up a bit soon as adding some new items to get some more interest and doing a blog giveaway too and lots of tweeting. I am using the quiet time to try and prepare for Christmas and hope that I can get enough stuff on that things will pick up soon.

Yeah I've posted a lot on facebook, renewed a few things and listed a couple of new items. Fingers crossed it'll pick up soon.

I didn't go on holiday mode but deactivated my physical items and left my knitting patterns active (all 5 of them!) in my shop for 3 weeks while I was on holiday and I also experienced a major drop in views.
Not to worry as I'm adding new items to my shop and working on my existing keywords and photos too and already views are starting to go up slowly.

Thank you, I have noticed an increase in views in the past couple of days as I have listed a couple and was very active on facebook and pinterest.
