Re: sleeping is the way to sell boxes

Good for you David! Congratulations on the sales!

Sleeping seems to be the way to sell cards too. I woke up this morning to find I sold a set of non-Christmas cards overnight.

Cheers!

Re: sleeping is the way to sell boxes

Being in the UK, I often get sales whilst asleep, as the US is up & running, but several times I've woken up from an afternoon nap to find I've had a sale from a fellow European...have often wondered if I should take more naps LOL

Re: sleeping is the way to sell boxes

It's true!
I sell most of my items when I'm asleep.
But I have to admit I'm in Europe and most of my customers are in the US.

Re: sleeping is the way to sell boxes

That's awesome! I do my best sales while I sleep (of course I'm in bed by 9:30 pm)....

Re: sleeping is the way to sell boxes

Know the feeling, have had several orders come in during the night this month, need one more to reach one of my goals.. $1000 in sales for the month.

Congrats, your pieces look great.

Happiness is being woken in the middle of the night from the "cha-ching" of your Etsy app! :-)

Re: sleeping is the way to sell boxes

Love the positive posts here...It's the season and sales are up.

Getting products out there for people to see, use and talk about can only mean more to come...I believe!

Re: sleeping is the way to sell boxes

Hi David, I was just talking about this very thing with my husband last night. Happens to me quite frequently as well. I turn out the lights about 9:30, wake up and sure enough I have a new order or convo request about some thing from about 10 minutes after I went to bed. Can't complain though! My theory (aside from the time differences) is that a lot of folks look during the day and then make purchasing decisions in the evening after dinner.

Re: sleeping is the way to sell boxes

The same thing has happened to me! People seem to do a lot of shopping in the wee hours of the morning.

Another way to help your sales is to run out of packing material. ;-)

Re: sleeping is the way to sell boxes

Don't I know the feeling! After a no-event so-called 'shopping weekend', I have been waking up to sales two mornings in a row now. Hope this will keep going!
Happy selling for all of us!
