I've participated in sales in my online shops on several occassions, sometimes with modest success and sometimes with none. I've had One Day sales, twitter followers sales, end-of-season sales and SNS sales.
If anyone is on Etsy you've probably realized that they are promoting the 2nd Etsy Yart sale this week. What is a Yart Sale? Well, it's a Yard + Art Sale, hence the title. It has actually warrented a Storque article and I'm noticing lots of pink avatars popping up all over the forum tonight.
As I'm never able to resist a bargain myself, I've decided to have a Yart Sale myself and have spent tonight getting together a Yart Sale section in my shop and adjusting prices, tags etc.
So I'll let you know how I get on over the next few days and if it brings me any sales. Here's some of the items in my sale -
I've only had a sale section in my shop and removed that after minimal success with it. Your jewelry is wonderful. I'm sure you will do well.
ReplyDeleteThank you Kathy :)
ReplyDeleteI am having a sale too, I am tired of looking at it so anyone who pops by must be too. I do not list a lot of things on my pages as it is time consuming and costs! and so tend to put a few things up at a time. I think I will change that tho' and just put up everything and hang the expense!!
ReplyDeleteGood Luck Alison
hi there, I've not had a bite on sales yet, either. I even thought the Americans didn't like paying my shipping from the UK so had a free international shipping month. That was the only month I have had NO sales. Hmmm...
ReplyDeleteKeep us posted on how you do. I love your stuff, so I am sure you will do well. maybe tagging for 'yart sale' will help. I didn't do that with mine, it's such a palava!

Hi Alison, good luck with your Yart Sale! I'm quite a newbie with my blog, and not quite brave enough yet to venture into setting up an Etsy shop, but had a good look at other people's shops and loving what I see - if nothing else it gives me good inspiration to make more of my own goodies!
ReplyDeleteI want to let you know as well that I've tagged you! Go have a look at my blog to see what's going on, hope you join in and keep it going! Enjoy, Jo x
