I've noticed a decline in activity in October. What about you? If there is a true decline, I wonder if it is just on Etsy or if other online venues? Is there anything we can do as a team to promote book sales?
Allison, sorry I didn't see your post sooner.... I agree October was a slow month for me as well.... I'm working more on promotion, *promo pages, threads, pininterest, etc .... have seen some results. Any suggestions from team members are welcome
I haven't sold any books lately and my views and sales are down. Not sure what is going on but it does seem problematic. I try to participate in my teams and promote others but the only people favoriting me are other shop owners so that's not helping.
I'm trying to improve SEO on my listings for links outside of ETSY ... improving tags, how to word listings etc. Have had a few first time to ETSY customers recently so it may be working
The first part of the month was okay for me. My views and favorites are holding steady but the last two weeks of sales have been pretty bad! I was looking forward to increased holiday sales. Darn.
Facebook group Helping Etsians Promote is helping to increase traffic to the shop. They have different promo game. When I'm playing I have over 150 views per day. https://www.facebook.com/groups/226851564163654/
