Dawn, congratulations on your reaching 98 sales on Etsy. I wish for you to reach 100 and much more even sooner.

99...100...101...102...103...104! I'm not sure if it really counts, but I now have 104 sales on Etsy! The reason I don't think it counts is because the customers were my house guests so those might have been sympathy sales, but that number sure looks good in my shop! Thank you so much, Navigupta - I made it to 100+ sales last night!  Dawn |

HaHa! I knew you guys would say that! Thank you for the good wishes. I'm still in the camp that sales only count if the customer is a stranger to me, but perhaps I should re-think that. Dawn |

They definitely count. I hope you will go up to much more very soon.

Yes, and that one counted!  I was really on a roll last week with the Etsy sales and a few private ones as well. If only every week was like that! Dawn |

It is like this with Etsy and me - I can have 5-7 sales in one week, then their algorithm turns away from my shop and I have to wait for 10 -14 days before someone decides to buy something again. I have decided to use these "free" days to try and come up with new ideas:)

Yes, me too, but my numbers aren't as high as yours, Irith. With me it's more like one sale and then wait 3-4 weeks for another. I should have lots of free days for other ideas, but I keep letting myself get distracted by other tasks and projects. Dawn |

Dawn, I think the reason you have less sales, is that you have less items to offer. I believe that now you will create many new beautiful items in your new workshop and you will have more sales. Also - perhaps you can make new listings with the ones you already have in your shop, with new photographs, and add other tag names to them. This could help.

Irith, I agree that I need more items listed in my shop. I think at my highest, I had around 160. I did an inventory the other day and put all of the pieces I've made that have not yet been photographed or listed in a box. I'm slowly working my way through; 15 things photographed so far. I didn't count, but I'm sure there are over 50 things in that box. So now I have 15 items photographed, I will take the time to edit my photos and make listings before I go on to photograph anything else. We have some rainy days ahead making this a good way to spend time since doing anything outside is highly unlikely. Dawn |

It takes a lot of time for me to add even one listing. First - choose the best phtographs out of about 30 that I take (and many times they are not that great either, but I don't have too much patience with this) then find the right description and tags.
Wow! you photographed 15 items! Good for you:)
