How's your business in February so far?

I've got only 2 sales in Feb so far.
I think many jewelers are busy with their valentines day orders but I have been so free since 1 Feb. Instead, I spend time on hiking and reading books.
I hope my sales will boost soon.

No sales so far which is disappointing, I was hoping for some Valentines sales but nothing, hoping things improve.

Re: How's your business in February so far?

The first week, the orders exploded for me compared to my usual. The last couple days have stagnated as far as sales and activity. I can't ever seem to figure out what drives traffic and sales.

Re: How's your business in February so far?

2 sales in Feb. I opened in Jan. had 2 sales then. Sounds like a lot of people are suffering this month.

Hope things pick up. Lucky I love doing it so much or else I would have ditched a while back.

Stay positive Team!

Re: How's your business in February so far?

My Feb is uneventful. Until I realized that I forgot to turn off my Twitter Ads. Only wanted to do a 2/3 day test to see how it worked. 5 days later. . .

So sadly no sales from it. :(

But I'll be adding more stuff to my store later this week, so I hope I can get more activity once I have them up.

Re: How's your business in February so far?

I opened in Dec zero sales since then, I have been actively promoting for 2 weeks still nothing. Would anyone like to take a look and give me an opinion about my prices. I know I need to work on photos but I really would like some input on my prices. Thanks.

Re: How's your business in February so far?

I've only had a couple of sales which is surprising because my viewings and favourited items are way up. There's no ryme nor reason to it but who's got any money in February? It will get better.....

It's been steady, but much less than January. This is always a slow time on Etsy. Time to make some new product!

Re: How's your business in February so far?

Still waiting for that first sale. I opened my shop last summer, but did nothing to promote it, and let my listings expire in the fall. After the holidays, I renewed some of the listings, worked on the photos, added more listings, joined some teams, and began promoting (both within and outside Etsy). So far, lots of people have viewed my shop and favorited some of the items, but nobody has taken the bold step of becoming my first customer. I'm still hopeful!

Re: How's your business in February so far?

My business is as pants as ever but it's good to read how everyone else is doing.

Only been back on Etsy a few weeks, also write a literature blog no one reads, make music no one hears and do aerial dance I never get to perform. In fact I've just had to turn down a theatre project because at the last minute I'm told the aerial hoop will cost over a £1000 to rig! Total nonsense.

My problem is how to promote, I use social media a lot but still not getting my work seen.

I got one big goose egg... 0! Trying not to be down about it because I know Feburary is a slow month for my shop... But I was really hoping Valentines Day would be a nice excuse to buy art for people, or for yourself lol

Re: How's your business in February so far?

The first week of the month was great. Now its up and down, but I don't have much to complain about because overall it's been good.

Re: How's your business in February so far?

I have only had one custom order so far this month. Where are all the romantics for Valentines Day? I was expecting more sales from that.
Hey Ho and on we go, I have always got so many items and not enough time to list them. I am concentrating on increasing my listings at the moment and wait for sales to improve.
Again I have lots of likes and favourites and would like to increase my shop followers too - what is the best way of doing that do you think ?

I've gotten one sale in February but nothing in January. I'm hoping that the further we get from Christmas the more it will pick up.

Re: How's your business in February so far?

No Sales yet as I am still new and just getting started with social media promotion etc. I would think that February is a difficult month overall with sales.

Any feedback on what you see in my shop would be helpful.

Thanks!
