Still no sales...! Please help!

Hi everyone!
I've been setup on Etsy for 10 days, I have over 50 items, 250 views and 19 favorited items, but no sales! Are those good or bad numbers so far? I know jewelry is a challenging and competitive category so any input would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Leanne, the cold hard truth is that there are several MILLION jewelry items for sale on Etsy. The trick to selling in such a competitive category, I think, is to have something extremely unique.

Oh, and 10 days of being open is NOTHING. Give it a couple months, at least!

Looked at something else this time, your wine charms. My 1st question is why aren't you showing them on a wine glass? I thought it was a link bracelet from the picture!

I don't know about your other items, but your tags on this item could use some serious work (sorry ...). Here's what you have for tags now:

Accessories Charm Wine Charms Seed Beads Silver Set 6 Jealousy Jewelz Leanne Unique Handmade One of a kind Functional Glass Fun Gift Free Shipping

Other than the category, there's really nothing in your tags that "screams" THESE ARE WINE CHARMS. Can't promise this would help, but it would be something I'd seriously consider fixing.

Thanks so much!
I have 1 photo of the wine charms on a glass and they didnt pop but I will go ahead and add those photos regardless! Thanks for your input and I understand I have to be patient in the jewelry category! This weekend I will sit down and do a tag makeover! Thanks alot!

I didn't sell anything for 3 months after i opened my shop.

Don't get discouraged, It took me almost 6 months to make a sale (probably longer then most). Like my photos, I think your photos need to be brighter., so your colors show better. I'm trying to make a light box so I have better photos. I got the directions online to make a simple one without much cost. Your pieces are beautiful, good luck to you.

Thank you for your encouragement!! I'm hoping to buckle down and make a shadow box as well! Good luck to you too!

Please let me know how your shadow box turns out and which site you're following!
