How's your sales in Feb so far?

Feb is very very quiet for me. I just sold 1 cross necklace in Feb.
Finger-crossed.

Re: How's your sales in Feb so far?

I have had a total of 5 sales this month. My best since my first month of sales. It is very exciting. My product quality is better and I reached 200 items in my shop this month. That seems to be helping with getting more views and sales. My goal is to get to 250 items by the end of the first quarter.

I am moderately happy so far. A couple more would be good though.

I just had my 15th order a few minutes ago (yay!). The number of orders in Feb. is higher than Dec. & Jan. but revenue is a lot less. Most buyers only bought one item, compared to previous months when they bought multiples.

So so. You know when you release a new piece/line and everyone goes crazy for it but no one buys it?!!

Re: How's your sales in Feb so far?

I sold 11 items so far this month on a monthly average of 10, so sales are good for February.

Remember that after the big Holidays period, when everybody buys gifts for everybody, (and after they spend the money they got as a a gift) people will usually spend less money for a while. So February is usually slower.

My month started off slow, but in the last few days I've had several cha-chings so I can't complain. Although, I'm out of boxes and business cards...not a bad problem to have, LOL

Re: How's your sales in Feb so far?

I made 1 sale! Which is better than none, I guess. I'm still new and I think it's hard to sell prints...I'm still trying though.

Feb is going great for me! Better than November or December, and I'm really surprised as January was totally dire.

Re: How's your sales in Feb so far?

This is turning out to be me second-to-best month on etsy to date.. I've been putting a lot of effort into social media which I know has resulted in a few direct sales, so I'm happy that is proving fruitful :)
31 sales so far..

Re: How's your sales in Feb so far?

Comparing this month to last, I've had about 2/3 the views, 1/3 the number of sales, and 1/3 the income. I had raised my prices a little at the beginning of the month, but don't think that is the main problem. I think it is a lot of things, including the economy, paying off after holidays bills, terrible weather which makes people a little sluggish, spending time watching the Olympics, and end of winter blahs. Sales will probably pick up next month until beginning summer and then slow down as usual, and then pick up again in Sept. It seems to be a fairly consistent cycle.

In the meantime, as others mentioned, spend time building up your stock, tweek your shop and marketing, and enjoy spending time with your family and friends.

Re: How's your sales in Feb so far?

My sales were awesome at the beginning of the month but have slowed down a lot. I'm really hoping to hit my 80th sale before next month though! /fingers crossed

This month has been my best-selling month since opening (31 sales) and last month was nearly as good. I hope it lasts!

Re: How's your sales in Feb so far?

Nothing yet this year...which is especially a bummer since I more than doubled my previous sales during the holidays.

Re: How's your sales in Feb so far?

I'm pleasantly surprised this February. It's usually decent because of Valentines day but this year I've done almost as well this February as I did in December. 17 orders/19 items, double my January revenue.

7 so far, which is pretty slow for me. I'm trying to use the extra time making new items to try in the shop, reworking listings, things like that. =)

Looked promising in the beginning of the month. Purdy slow since then! Hoping the change into March has people looking forward to spring. Little house cleaning ... little shopping!

Re: How's your sales in Feb so far?

I am new to Etsy. I sell LIP PUMPS. So as a beginner two days in, no sales yet, but a ton of great feedback. It's crazy because on ebay I sell about 100-300 a month, people love them. Etsy is a bit of a challenge
