Just about 4 months on Etsy and the only sales I've made are to friends and that's because I asked them to go thru Etsy.

I'm giving Etsy $20+ a month and no real sales.

Is Etsy so saturated that new shops don't have a chance?

Re: I'm a little pissed that I'm not selling.

SAME here!
I've read tons of advices and some of my item can be seen on first 3 page on some specific search items like "crystal pearl necklace" or "pearl wedding ring", but nothing, no one click it and no one buy it, very frustrated.
I am very hard working.my product quality very good and price very reasonable.
Please help me, give me some advices! :/

I'd guess it's because of your photos - or lack of.

You're selling a higher value product but not showing what folk are buying.
Tbh it does personally irk me somewhat when i'm shopping & there are so few pics.
It's the photo that essentially sells the goods. I'd recommend adding 5 for each listing, good quality, full sized & showing the blankets entirety in the pics.

Re: I'm a little pissed that I'm not selling.

Hi jennifer!
I love your jewels <3

I nearly left your shop thinking you only sold pearls! I would be inclined to mix your products up a bit...the top half is quite yellowy & samey, then the bottom half is peachy, the next page we hit the greens! I think it'd look much more appealling & easier on the eye if you mixed it all up. Or at least in variable rows which is what i tend to try to do.

I think it would help bigly too if your jewels were shown on a model....pop your necklace around a neck so the size, look, & perspective can be truly grasped .
& if you send your items boxed/ gift wrapped, i would show this too - most jewellery i buy is for gifting, i won't buy it if it doesn't come boxed.

Good luck! :)

Re: I'm a little pissed that I'm not selling.

I have a couple stores before and i know, the stores need a lot of work before selling, I have started 9 january on Etsy and started to publish listings 6 days ago and i getting about 50 listings views everyday, It is all about back-links, SEO, using twitter, Facebook, Instagram, blogger and more,
Publish to anywhere you can, Your shop link need to be out everywhere then you get higher ranking. I do not except any sells in a couple month, when the hard work is done, and a couple month when google getting the back-links in the system more visitors will come.

One tip - do not use high res photos use good photos but not so good that people can use them, i have seen many using others designs.
If using highres photos , put a watermark over the photos.

Re: I'm a little pissed that I'm not selling.

Okay, I'm ready to receive all the comments about my shop.
I'm on Etsy since 2014 and only made 9 sales.
What am I doing wrong?

Thank you
Christyna
