How's your sales in May ?

[KristianJessie]

I've got 3 orders for cross necklaces so far.

Low shop view. A few custom order enquiries. My feeling is that shopping activities at etsy is not as active as before.

How about you? How's your sales in May so far?

Same here. I seem to have a lot less views than usual. But my year so far has been slow compared to last Jan-April.

May has been ok for me so far. 3 sales in 10 days which of me isn't too bad.

April was a great month for me in terms of orders by there was a definite drop off in May - however my views are way up so I am definitely reflecting on what I am doing differently to try and strike a balance.
But it's apples and oranges, my traffic/sales don't necessarily reflect trends in shopping on Etsy, just my store experience. Keep plugging away at it, every time I feel frustrated I make an honest list of what more I could do to improve and start actioning changes to see if it makes a difference. Hope it picks up!

Sales boosted close to Black Friday. Just got 4 more orders...

May is awful so far. Low views, no sales.

[Psifida]

Low views, no sales too

[LemoneeOnTheHills]

Traffic and sales are lower than beginning of the year here too.

[Former_Member]

less than April.

The sales on April was desirable . But this month seems to be worse....

[TzenNikoletta]

Only 3 sales in May .I didnt have a sale for 1,5 month.

I hope the things will change....

[Former_Member]

6 orders so far which is good for me - had 8 in all of April.

[RainbowBeeDesign]

I have 2 sales so far in May...I'm really excited about that!

[Former_Member]

The worst they've been since I started selling on etsy. Hopefully it'll pick up soon. Usually May is one of my busiest months. :/

[Former_Member]

unfortunately....zero :(

[MuttStuffnc]

April was terrible for me. I've already made more sales in May then I did in all of April so i'm crossing my fingers.

[Former_Member]

So far so good. If things keep up it should be a good may!

[Former_Member]

I can't complain since I was out of the country for the last 5 months and my shop still kept selling... now that I'm back home it's time to bring it up to speed!

[KristianJessie]

Very quiet this week and I've got no sales.

[Former_Member]

At least there is a Sale this month. And am happy about it. A few more would be really exciting. Hoping to get 3-4 more sales this month.

April was the worst month since 2 years, may is a bit better but it also less than I usually sell

[mirrymirry]

A little quiet here but sales still trickling through. Views have picked up the last couple of days though.

Woke up to half my shop listings having expired. But what could be better timing since i'm closing today! I never even calculated that :) :) :)

Good luck peoples, hope your efforts pay off x

My May has been great but then my standards are pretty low. Between eBay and etsy I've had a good month. I've been posting on my team threads like crazy. I'm sure it makes a difference.
Good luck to everyone!

I"m new, only since February, but my views are increasing every day. Mostly because of my posts on Twitter, here and doing those games in the teams and Pinterest.

No sales yet. I wonder if the views I'm getting are helpful because I"m actually asking for them or forcing them. They're not because they found me by searching. Anyone know?

Low Views, No Sales
