The time-results conundrum

[Former_Member]

I'll be frank,
I know that the more time I spend promoting my shop, the more sales I will get.
But Etsy is a part time job for me. I only have an hour or two each day to spend on it.
So here's the question.
How should I best spend that limited time to get maximum results?
To be clear I'm not looking to replace the family income here, just get a few sales each month.
Any thoughts? Bright ideas? Suggestions?

make and list more items.

a lot more.

Desi,

The first thing I would do with your shop is to improve your item titles. People find your listing by the titles.

When was the last time you ran to the store to buy an 'In the Rain"?

You may want to spend some of your time reading the 'critique your own shop blog at

Most of your sales have ben greeting cards.
You have no current stock in greeting cards.
Make more greeting cards!

You need way more items. You need around 100 to get a constant flow of traffic.

thanks for the tips guys!

Greeting cards have an attractive price point--it'll get people to your shop and you'll be doing something you love!! Good luck!

Divide your time between creating new items and learning SEO.

SEO will get shoppers to your shop, and more items give them plenty to choose from :)
