Do you want to make sales?

List new items!  

People can't buy your products if they aren't listed.  You could make the best widget in the world, but if no one knows about it, you won't be able to sell it!

Stock your shop.  If you only have about 5 items, shoppers are not very likely to find what they are looking for or want.  But if you have 30, 50, 75 items or more to choose from, a shopper just might fall in love with what you have and feel the need to buy it!

If you're not convinced, go check out different shops.  You'll notice those with the highest number of sales tend to be the ones that are well stocked.

So let's add more stock to our shops!   Cheesy

Hi Julie:

Your timing is perfect.  I've just previewed three new products in my blog that I plan on adding to my store.  As a new seller I'm going to be upgrading my subscription and adding these products this week.  My goal is to expand my line and continually add new products.  Thanks for a great suggestion.

Great advise, Julie!

I would also advise those who are on the free subscription - post 5 items! It's free!
I often see 1 or 2 in the store. That's not enough to give your web audience a feel for your work. Also, if you can post only a limited number of items at the moment - post your best creations with the best looking photos! And keep rotating them.
At least, your Creator Exhibit will look professional and fresh.

It's TRUE!

More to see = more traffic.  More traffic = better chance the right person will come along!

Yes!  Rotate!  Stay fresh!  Show that you ARE here and not an absentee creator!
