It was another week of working on the Etsy store. I had 14 products listed and no sales in over a month despite 100+ visits. Statistically, I should have had one sale per 100 visits, although new stores can take months to get the first sale. I decided to pivot. Part of that involves only listing digital items instead of print on demand items like posters, mouse pads, etc. It turns out to be rather time consuming. I have to make 7 files per listing plus multiple files for display purposes and a download link and such. I now have 10 listings of which only six are new products. I've deleted or de-listed several things. I'm slowly replacing the old inventory. I wanted to keep the number of listings at 14, but some items like posters don't match the new focus on digital items. I don't know if Etsy's algorithm likes the deletions and de-listings. Visits are down, but so is inventory. The goal is to have at least 30 items for sale by the end of the month and preferably more. Another goal is to set aside a certain amount of time per night to work on it instead of fretting about how long it takes to do everything and feeling like I'm not getting enough done.
Have a great weekend.
