Reaching out to my fellow crafters that sell on line for some advice
Here's my dilemma, I have done everything i can think of and then some
to get more shop views, signed up with tweet jukebox, do promoted
listings, participate in groups,treasuries.Too many to mention... I spend just about all day
and into the late night promoting/crocheting. etc. Here's the breakdown
of the past few years for the month of October i've been selling on
here.
Status for month (rounded off)
Oct. 2015
Views (as of now) 38,000 Not a typo
Sales 10
Oct 2014
Views 18,000
Sales 16
Oct 2013
Views 8,000
Sales 14
Oct 2012
Views 4,000
Sales 10
Without showing the actual amounts, i can tell you since Oct 2013, my
revenue has dropped like a rock..more than 50%. I keep adding fresh
items, retake photos when i think they could be better etc. I have been
selling on here since 2009.
Is there any suggestions on what to do? Is this something out of our
control? Maybe it's just time to close up shop or just consider it a
hobby. I rely on my sales to pay for my meds/insurance and i'm barely
making it, Crochet also helps with my anxiety. I don't even know if i
could get a job outside the home with this anxiety and hot flashes crap.
Anyway, this old dog needs to learn new tricks-like how to search my
"target audience"etc. Thanks in advance
