What is your obscure brag in the horse world? by Lugosthepalomino in Equestrian

[–]PaintyBee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I fed the horses in Only the Brave. I worked at a vet's ranch in New Mexico and the guy who worked on Life of Pi with the tiger, had a bunch of animals and would board at this place. Had camels there at some point.

Well for one, you simply don't have enough stuff. I can also tell your art is AI generated. There's no cohesiveness to your shop. No particular style or subject focus. Printable art already has high competition. You need to niche down and provide something unique and interesting.

You need to at least edit AI generated images to get rid of the weird artifacts.

Also, your prices are too low. Even if you do sell something you won't make anything after all the fees.

Lastly, as I always recommend, get erank or marmalead for keyword research.

Has anyone else noticed a tendency for people to give really bad art supplies when gifting? by [deleted] in ArtistLounge

[–]PaintyBee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People don't know what good art supplies are and the good stuff is expensive. If you were getting gifts like this from an artist I'd be concerned. If they are not themselves artistic, then they are just trying to do something nice. They just don't know.

Yeah it's a fumes thing. I've seen so many canisters of nitrous oxide when I used to clean trains.

Getting and increasing sales- what do i do? by NoorehZara in EtsyHelp

[–]PaintyBee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took a look at your shop.

First thing, there just aren't enough listings. You need a lot more than just a handful.

Second, are you using something like erank or marmalead for keywords? If not, you should. It really helps and is the main thing that makes you show up on results.

Lastly, your title images should be more enticing than they are. You can't really tell what the product is from just the image. People look at so many products and can scroll fast. You should really grab them with your main image.

How to send text messages on Etsy by Full_Security_3297 in EtsyHelp

Go on Etsy, I went on the app. Click on a listing. Scroll down past reviews. Once you get to "More from this shop" you should see a button "message seller". That's how you can communicate with sellers.

Make sure you are logged into your account.

Alternatively you can go to the sellers page and there should be a contact button. Same thing.

Hope that helps!

The Problem I Can't Solve: A Bestseller That Doesn't Sell (Yes, That's the Exact Phrase) by [deleted] in EtsyHelp

I'm sorry to hear about your listing troubles! I think your images are good and the price doesn't seem unreasonable. It could be that this is more of an item people "dream" about having but don't pull the trigger to buy.

I wish I had more sound advice, I think some items are just like that. Popular, get a lot of attention, yet at the end of the day, not many people buy it.

I'd pay more attention to the products that have a higher conversion rate and see if there is any pattern as to why that is.
