I’m actually dreading doing this report. My Etsy store didn’t do very good in Q4. At all. In fact, there were two weeks where I wasn’t getting any views or sales. I think it was in November but it might have been December (the months are all running together in my head). I thought there was something wrong with my store but then I checked out the Etsy Sellers Facebook page and found that there were other sellers experiencing the same thing. No views & no sales despite updating their stores or running sales. Not sure what was wrong but it was definitely on Etsy’s end. The views and sales eventually came back but they were much lower than before. I haven’t actually looked at the numbers for November and December yet but I have a feeling they are pretty bad. I wasn’t expecting a lot over the holiday season based on what I sell on my Etsy store as I don’t sell any gift type products. Let’s see what I made from my Etsy store in November 2024…
November 2024 Income Report
In November, I made $8.70 from 2 orders. I had 271 visits which gives me a conversion rate of 0.7%. Yikes! That’s way worse than I was expecting.
I do not spend money on advertising, however, Etsy does their own advertising and they take out listing fees. The listing fees were $3.14 and their marketing fee was $0.
Total Etsy Income for November 2024: $5.56
Previous Month’s Earnings
October 2024: $32.33
September 2024: $40.64
August 2024: $48.24
What Did I Do In November?
I got a few more products and display images created in November but I still haven’t listed anything. I have about 150 new items ready to list in the store but I want to make sure I have enough money in my bank account to pay for the listing fees (~$30). I would also like to create bundles to sell and list them at the same time as the other items as well as come up with a discount code so sellers who have already purchased from me can buy the bundles for a cheaper price.
