Last Day of 100 Sales 100 Days

It's been 100 days since I set my goal of 100 Sales 100 Days.

Ending Etsy Stats
Etsy sales - 55
Items sold - 83
Etsy Shop hearts - 135

I didn't make my goal, but I ended up with 55 sales this season and I worked hard for those sales this year. When Etsy changed to relevancy at the end of September my views and sales crashed. October was a tough month I only had 4 sales.

At the end of October I received a message from a fellow Etsy seller with tips for helping my shop come up in searches. I have spent weeks (and I'm still working on it) changing all my titles and tags.

Thanks to her tips and ideas, I started making these changes and my views tripled. In November I got 22 sales, which is more then last year for that month. So it has been worth all the work.

All in all it was not a bad holiday season on Etsy. I did reach one of the big goals I set for myself at the beginning of the year of getting over 700 items sold. I made that goal, and I am thrilled.

2011 Show Display

It has been a very busy selling season outside of Etsy this year.  I had six shows this season and at my first shows I sold over 75% of my inventory. I have spent the last 4 weeks making jewelry like a mad women just trying to keep up with all my shows and Etsy sales.

Tomorrow is my last day of me being the crazy jewelry making lady. I am looking forward to taking a break. I plan to spend my days reading, preparing for my family coming for the holidays, and planning for 2012. Maybe I will start 100 Sales in 100 Days in the spring, and try again.

Did you do as well as you planned this season?
