Good morning :) I'm seeking critique, advice and feedback on my new crochet shop. I've been open since May and have had over 900 views to date. I still haven't had a sale though. I feel that for a new shop my views are pretty decent so I'm wondering why none of those have resulted in a sale. Any thoughts to share? Thank you!

Re: Over 900 views and no sales?

Thank you all so very much for the advice and suggestions! I'm finding it difficult to spend time marketing and promoting like I need to and also to make new items- I'm a wife and mommy first so my time is limited lol! I am in the process of two new blankets and some other small items that I hope to get listed soon. I love the lap blanket suggestion as I had already been considering adding that to the descriptions. My problem with models is that most of my items at this point are ready made and I'm really funny about cleanliness and hygiene- I wouldn't buy a ready made item that has been on another body for photographing so I'm planning to use hat stands instead the next time I have a few minutes to work on updating the hat pics. I'm pretty terrified of international shipping be honest- I'm so afraid I'll mess something up or it will get lost and then the headache of trying to straighten it out for the customer. I'm really not looking for a huge career like some and selling globally until I get my bearings with this new endeavor. I really would love to just find my niche to sell 2 or 3 items a week lol! Thank you again very much for all the help- it is invaluable and I'm taking it all to heart :) :)

Ohhh, your crochet items are so lovely!
I love the baby blanket. Your photos are lovely. But I think you can edit them so they are brighter. And of course, work on adding more items! Like phone cases, because a lot of people use them. And make more beanies and scarves for the holiday season. (: Good luck!
