However! I am now fully stocking my store for Christmas/Craft Show season. I just listed 10 items tonight, about another 30 to go in the next two weeks. This will finally get me over the 100 item mark (yay!). So at least I'm getting something done! Hoping that November/December will be more profitable for me.
October hasn't been as good as the summer was, but it's still been pretty good so far. I've had a little more than twice as many sales as last October, so I'm pretty happy about that.
Thankfully it's starting to pick up. I'm getting ready to celebrate my 6th Etsy Anniversary and I was pondering a big sale but may wait until the Holiday season which is just about here for some customers! Keeping my head up!
Thanks to the changes etsy made im the searching my shop went from doing great to nothing. If they don't change it back I will have to close shop and get another job.
"Etsy recently changed the search results algorithm enforcing local shops to buyers, although there is already a button “Shop Locally” for choosing to display results local shops. This means that shops from small countries won’t have the same chance to reach buyers, without buyers’ knowledge. We pay the same fees as anyone else, and the reason we have joined Etsy in the first place was to get global exposure, so we want Etsy to undo the recent changes, and give us all the fair chance and equal opportunity."
