Can I get another look at my shop, please Critique.

I have made a lot of changes to my shop over the last month but only have two sells. Please can someone review my shop and give some advise. Thanks Kathy

Re: Can I get another look at my shop, please Critique.

Hi Kathy, I try to always be honest when people ask for critiques.... I had some brutally honest critiques shortly after I started and those changes helped me get to over 2,000 sales, so I promise I am only trying to help.

Your wreaths are beautiful! The pictures could be a bit more appealing and bright, lots of natural light if possible and zoom out a bit for the main photo. You can have closer photos for the additional photos. I went and searched a few wreaths and the ones I was absolutely drawn to were soft, natural light showing a view of the item from a distance, it gave me the idea of what it would look like on my door.

Also it would help a lot if you had additional photos, people reeeally want to see exactly what they are getting. As far as your content, you should definitely expand your market by adding additional colleges (I have all top 20 universities of outfits in my store and it seems Ohio State, Oregon Ducks and Michigan are the most popular) I would also maybe add ones that appeal to special interest, a military one would be great! A US Army or Navy (all do well during Labor Day, Memorial Day and 4th of July)

Again, your items are beautiful and prices are reasonable so I would try to make the pictures more appealing and try to reach a broader audience! Hope this helps! :)

Thank you for your input. Some of the pictures I have on my shop are from when I didn't have a shop and I just made wreaths for my friends. So, I will definitely work on adding better pictures. From the South there is Georgia, Georgia Tech, FSU, Gators and I almost forgot Alabama are the top teams. I will be working adding these teams to my shop. Thanks again for your input.

Kathy

You have some really cute wreaths but my suggestion would be to take the photos of them on an actual door to a house in nice light since some of them are a bit dark. You've already gotten the recommendation to zoom out on the thumb and I would recommend that too, so one can see the whole wreath since some of them are cut off.

Your tags, 2-3 worded tags work better than 1 word tags which I've seen a couple of on your listings. A big help is to write in the search box a word and see what suggestions pop up with that, it's what people search for on etsy.

Some of your listings also don't have much information, beef them up a bit with information about material, size, sturdyness, weather proof etc.

Best of luck!
