Help!!!

I opened my shop in march and have had only one sale through etsy. I'm on the teams, twitter, facebook, pinterest and instagram. I get loads of views and favorites outside of team play. I have no idea why I'm not getting sales. Any and all suggestions are welcome. Thanks in advance.

Re: Help!!!

Here is my opinion.
1) I think maybe you need to get more items in your shop. The more items you have, the more people can find you.
2) Your photos can use a bit of work. They seem to have a tint and a good photo editing program can help brighten them up a bit.
3) Your title's maybe a bit on the short side. Try to expand upon keywords for the items you are selling.
4) In your shop announcement try using more keywords for the items that you are selling in your shop.

I think you have some cool stuff, just need to tweek things a little and
it takes practice to get it down right for your shop. :)

Hi Erica,
First of all, I love your story about the shop. :-) I also love your work. Perhaps you've seen enough suggestions in Forums and Teams about how to improve the shop with SEO. It gives many good points for me to improve my shop, (trust me, I am still learning :-) If I may suggest you to add more for your tags: With zipper (or without), machine washable, size, different colors if requested (?) etc... I hope my humble suggestion helps. Best wishes to you and your shop.

Hi Erica

You probably need more items in your shop - the more you have the more likely you are to be found in a search. I also think you might think about cutting down on the variety and specialize in certain things e.g., just scarves, hats, and clutches. At least until you can really increase your inventory overall.

Your shop is very nice and your do great work!

Re: Help!!!

I have some suggestions on your tags for this listing that will help.

https://www.etsy.com/listing/245667432/green-glass-with-pink-rose-bead-glass?ref=shop_home_active_2

silver beaded earring
pink rose earrings
sterling silver
green glass
pearl and bead

2-3 word tags are better than single word tags. Hope this helps.

Re: Help!!!

Hi Erica! You have a great shop and I love how you display your items, however, some pictures are not very clear. I am still trying to figure out how to take pictures myself, to me its a whole new ball game! But I would suggest watching a lot of videos on youtube on how to take product pictures at home and see what works for you.
Also, I would change some of the description of your products. For instance, the cute blue bag listing you have:

https://www.etsy.com/listing/243817165/my-little-blue-bag?ref=shop_home_active_2

Unless a customer is specific looking for an item called " my little blue bag", they will never find this listing. Try describing the bag on your title, its features.

I hope this helps and happy sales!
