Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween everyone,

It is looking like it will be a good night for trick-or-treaters in Central New York tonight.  Just right for ghosts and goblins.

I joined the Etsy Success team a few weeks ago and have found some very helpful tips.  There is no posting of treasuries or favorite items from the shop above; it is a team dedicated to just being successful on Etsy.  One of the thoughts for success was having at least 100 items in your shop.  That seems like alot but it allows the search engine to have a greater selection of your items to chose from when showing search results.  I have a ways to go, but it is now a goal.  The other tip was to increase my prices.  This sounds absolutely crazy, but many people equate price with quality, so if my price is low it is assumed my quality is low.  So I have made some price changes to most of the items, we'll see if this helps with sales.

ADVANCE NOTICE!!!!! My coupon code for November will be for FREE SHIPPING (use code NOVFREESHIP).  This coupon will start Tuesday, November 1, 2011.  This coupon code is active now, so if you choose you can use it today, or use the 25% off (coupon code GUITAR1011).

Have a great Halloween!

  1. Linda, good job on deciding to increase some of your prices. I am also working on doing the same. I am trying hard to get past undervaluing what I do. Good luck....
