Hi colooney,

Welcome to the site. :)

The items listed in your booth look so adorable especially the fairy figurines. Your product descriptions are quite all right, generally your booth is pretty much well put together.

What products? That's a tough one, its quite hard to say you should sell this and not these. It will be even harder if you keep changing the types of products you sell. I read in your profile that you like collecting the fairy things that you are currently selling so I'd suggest you stick with that for now. It is often times ideal to sell (or even do) the things that we love or have interests in.

There are a number of things you can try to help increase your sales, one would be to increase traffic going to your booth. Another would be to offer promos like free shipping or even flat rate shipping - often times this works for most sellers. Also make sure you put up great photos with matching descriptions that are thorough, clear and concise(this one doesn't seem to be a problem for you).

I found a few articles that have various tips which I personally think may help you get more visitors and actually convert them to buying customers, please have a read:

I would just ad to make the most use of the social networking sites, facebook, myspace and so on. Create effective profiles on each informing people about your business, then get them to all link up to your twitter account for special offers.

Go on a friend request rampage and start networking. Now you have to be careful not to actively spam, so you need to keep it on a personal level, but it's a very effective way to start building your own network of customers.

Takes time, but if you spend enough of it walking around dropping crumbs in the forest, animals are going to follow you home sooner or later : )

Make sure to do all the steps that Bonanzle offers.

Under Make more sales go through each step. You can even offer a commission under syndicate step.. You offer referrers a piece of the action when they refer someone to you that buys.

Also mkae sure to prime your store for Google.

Yes, most of us here have been a big fan on Bonanzle for quite some time now, and it's really great to see it going from strength to strength.

Good luck with the continuing sales.
