Okay, so here’s the deal, I tried to start an online boutique and sold nothing. I tried it out for 2-3 months then shut down my Shopify shop because so was paying $40 bucks a month for nothing. I want to start it back up because I feel that it’s a large market and there’s enough space for me in it.
Do you have any advice for getting my first sale? How long did it take to get your first sale?
I feel like I’ve done all I can at this point, I don’t have a big social media following, so I can’t fall back on that. I also feel dumb paying for advertisement to result in nothing. Shopify says if I don’t reinstate by March, they will permanently delete my site I might let them smh.
1. I bought an online domain and created my site on Shopify, it looks nice compared to some of the other small shops I see
2. I paid for Instagram and Facebook advertisement (reached about 8,000 ppl)
3. I made a Facebook business page, so you can buy on (Facebook, Instagram, or Direct from site)
4. Never realized how hard it was to build a following on Instagram I have accumulated (162) followers
I feel like people only share success stories, I never see anyone with my problem, so I wanted to share.
