How do you motivate yourself to stock your shop?

Submitted by kirsty_to_stay on Thu, 06/08/2009 - 4:45pm
Like many wearables shops, i'm getting to the stage right now where i've just had enough. I can't take this anymore :K... I need to stock too since yeah, stuff is selling out at an insane rate. Help give me suggestions to get motivated and share your own experiences. Until now profits were keeping me going, but i'm past caring about them now! Don't suggest changing category or holding off and taking a break or I might abuse my mod powers on you :O No, but in all seriousness, I love the category and normally enjoy stocking my shop, you can just have too much of a great thing. One week of this wearables boom is taking it's toll on me. I know I should be making the most of it while it lasts, guess i'll make myself stock while I wait for replies.

I know! Tell yourself that after you're done stocking, you get to talk/listen to a_kitty_lover go on and on about... stuff ;) ;)

On days I just can't bring myself to restock, I skip it. Eventually it becomes such a crisis that the sheer volume of work needed to catch up motivates me. A sure fire cure is to do it one of those late nights when I should have gone to bed hours ago. When I turn into a late-night zombie (you know, when you can loose 2 hours just staring at the wall?) that is when I can just zone in and restock for hours without noticing the time pass. It gets to be compulsive. Of course, I'm a wreck the next day, but my shop is full! ;) Love books? Please visit my bookshop. :) http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=lolooma

I eat, sleep and drink. I can't restock when I'm dead.

I'm having the same problem too. Don't you just hate it when you go 'Yay! I just stocked my shop to max!'. Minutes later, you find out that almost all your stock is gone. I recommend stocking in bulk, and I mean 'bulk' bulk.

CHA-CHING!! Knowing that if I restock I'll keep making $$ is enough for me. B) [url=http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=ivonne271]Battledome Weapons, Shields and Cures![/url]
