So I've been selling on Etsy for 4 years now. And I'm at 876 sales. That's about 219 sales a year. That's good. I'm proud of that. But the last couple years have sucked big time. I'm starting to think that my shop is crap, and I want to quit. I want to put all my items in a huge pile and burn it. Yep. Burn it.
I feel like I'm doing something wrong. Are my prices to high? Shipping costs outrageous? Ugly photos? What is it????? I renew often, and I've added a ton of new things the past year. What else can I do?
I see shops that sell 2-3 items a DAY. And I'm extremely jealous. How do I get that much traffic in my shop? I've been around a while. I just don't know what it is....
... and it's driving me bananas.
I just want to quit.... But I won't. Because I'm not a quitter.
The End.
Hi there! New to your blog and a fellow crochet artist. Just wanted to say don't give up! Etsy sales are notably slower in the past year. I've had quite a few conversations with other sellers about how they're selling more on Facebook (gasp!) than etsy these day.
