Have things slowed down more than
you would like?
These 5 steps may turn things around for you.
1. Update. That’s right, check out your pictures, your
descriptions, your tags, your categorizing and change it up a bit. The way things are right now, just isn’t
working, so maybe something different will.
2. Renew/List new products. Recently listed products are going to show up
*first* on searches. How many pages do
you think a potential customer is going to go through before deciding what
he/she wants to buy? Maybe 4. Listing new items every couple of days (some
people will argue that you need to do this every day), will increase the
likelihood that someone will find your shop.
I have discovered that when I renew a sold order, I get more views on
EVERYTHING, not just that one listing.
Also, having more products will give your potential customer more
options to choose from.
3. Be patient. Depending on the time of year you started up,
things might naturally slow down a bit.
I started my shop in November…with Christmas right around the
corner. I got so many orders in December
that I had to turn down a few of them (it probably didn’t help that I was also
giving birth right around that time).
4. Advertise. There are lots of ways that you can advertise
for free. If you have the resources, go ahead and buy some professional
advertising. There isn’t anything wrong
with that. However, if your reading this
post, chances are you don’t have the resources, I’d suggest going to free
route…at least for now.
5. Tell people. Online revenues,
webpages, facebooks, and the numerous other outlets. If you don’t tell people that you are there,
how are they going to just find, or just stumble upon your store?
So, there you have it. Five relatively easy ways to change things
around. You might get results within a
few hours, or it might take a day, or maybe a week. However, I can be 95% sure that if you do
these five things you will see an improvement within a week.
