Plenty of Views But No Sales :(

[Former_Member]

Hello,
I have opened my shop here on Etsy on June 22, 2012. During this time I have had 569 views and 166 favorites, I've also been featured in a few Treasuries. This is all great, but I've not made any sales here on Etsy. If anyone has any advice, I would love to hear it.
Also, I know I need to add more items...they are already made, just need to take photo's and upload them.

Hi Erica,
It is hard at the beginning - I was in my first 1 and a half years stuck with 14 sales - I would advise you to read the sellers handbook
http://www.etsy.com/blog/en/2012/the-seller-handbook/
study other shops that sell similar items - and most of all list list list.
I participated in the Holidays Boot Camp last December - that (for me at least) turned my shop around.
I wish you all of the best in your journey here on Etsy!

I think when selling on etsy you should take the "marathon" approach versus a "sprint". It takes time to tweak your shop to make it appealing and find the right customers. What helped me most was reworking my tags and titles every once in awhile. Having an attitude that everything can always be improved has helped me see my shop and listings with a more critical perspective which has been much more constructive for me and has shown in my sales. I don't have huge sales numbers but then again this is VERY part time for me!! Good luck and hang in there!!

I'm always changing my shop around, trying to improve it any means necessary; from prices to photos to descriptions. I've even done the etsy shop report card app, everything is an A. As far as I can see my shop is fine, but there's no sales and because of that in general I'm trying to do my best to intrigue the customers. In all honesty, I have more work I want to post but I can't find my camera charger lol. As soon as I find that I will have more items up.

Erica,

This is something that we are still working on ourselves, but one thing you can tweak are your pictures. You have busy backgrounds and glare in many of your pictures. Pick something simple and stick with it. Make it easier for potential buyers browsing through search results to see your jewelry.

Best wishes,
Lisa
