How's your sales in May so far?

[KristianJessie]

How's your business in May so far? I have got 10 orders from non-etsy buyers.
I know some of you will quit here after 18th. Wish you all the best !

[StuckOnSilver]

Very good sales so far. Why will people quit after the 18th?

[PatsysPressedFlowers]

My views are down, but I believe that is because fav games from other sellers are not as popular. My views now reflect possible buyers more than other sellers faving my items or shop.
Sales, they just keep appearing! I am happy about that!
Yes, what's up with the 18th?

If shops have not adapted to the newly implemented check out and payment system by connecting their shop's account to their bank account (not just to PayPal as I used to be) they will not be able to make sales on Etsy. So, if you want to continue selling on Etsy, be sure your bank account connects with your shop. (I hope I'm using all the correct terminology.)

I am happy that I've had 2 sales so far. Also have communicated with 3 people about custom orders.
Wishing you all a busy month of May!

My sales are up about 20 percent in just the last week. I had resisted switching out of taking Paypal exclusively and then found out my shop would be suspended if I did not make the move. I tend to resist change whenever I can..haha. But.. within signing up my bank account to the Etsy plan, sales really improved. Who knew? I really encourage making the change if you can. Hope everyone is having a great weekend!

I switched to Direct Checkout a long time ago; it's not a big deal. Certainly not worth losing your business over.

I've had one sale so far and hopeful for the rest of the month!

[KristellCandles]

I opened my shop 6 weeks ago and got my 5 sales last month, but by now I have nothing yet this month. A bit confused - why?! But I just hope I have to be patient :) good luck to everyone :)

[Rokatree]

Nil, unfortunately.

[ManmadeKnitting]

Nothing so far this month, last month was good though :)

[TheBlueSpruceDecorCo]

3 Sales so far... things looking up. I hope the trend continues for us and all the etsy sellers.

[Former_Member]

Same as April - no sales.

I only had 2 sales this year!

[JoyfulCouple]

worst month on Etsy so far...only 2 sales, but got few reviews from previous buyers. ;)

[ArtOfRobyn]

1 sale so far but keeping hope alive! Focusing on updated pictures, freshen up my look!

[BeachcombercraftArt]

Just started March8th and got about a sale a week and now in May nothing. Feel like closing up shop.

[TheMaineCoonCat]

Aok

[KristianJessie]

So quiet in etsy these 2 weeks... what happens?

[PrairiePrimitives]

It's been fairly quiet for me so far this month, but today this month went from my 4th best May on Etsy to my Best Ever May on Etsy!

[StuckOnSilver]

Happy to say, my best month so far this year, including another wholesale order.

[FoxfordJewellery]

Pretty disappointing month so far,

Though we opened our Etsy shop in 2015 it only really took off this year and we were getting near daily cha-chings in April but that all stopped once May came along.

[KristianJessie]

Very low view and order this month! I can't imagine how it'd be in summer holiday?!!!

[ElenaVorobey]

I've had 0 sale so far :( and hopeful for the rest of the month!

[KristianJessie]

May is really a disaster for me... never been that "dead' before.. low view, no enquiries, almost to none sales...
