Is there something wrong with my shop? Advice and criticism needed please

My sales have been awful lately. Im not main market but I am in a great mall and participate in 4 mil nb ads For example yesterday I was 2nd on the notice board and made a profit of only 25k Today ive sold 1 item which was a herbal scrambled eggs I restocked and sold at the wiz. I can't afford any more upgrades and I can't even make 100k on a notice board ad LOL. Is my shop ugly , or are the prices too high, or do I just fail at malling? :(

[quote=playful]Okay, I'm new to this forum - how are people finding Pip's store? Is there a trick I missed? There is no shop link in her post and I don't know her user name on Neo. Can anyone tell me how we find this info? Pip, if it's any consolation, my sales have been down for about the last 2 months. People have said it's the time of year. I didn't have a shop this time last year, so I can only trust that they are right. I started my shop in the fall and the sales were much better fall and winter than they have been since about February. My sales literally dropped by about 10 fold after February. I am looking forward to increased sales this summer! :) ~ Love books? Please visit my bookshop. :) http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=lolooma[/quote] I feel the same. I'm just taking peoples' words for it. And my sales in Feb were amazing and even March. But April I dropped from getting over a mil in sales each day to getting 500k on the good days..

Is it just me or is everyone's hits wayyy low today. I was pretty upset when I only had 5 hits when I first came online, but it seems everyone's having a rough day, finals week maybe? :P

[quote]...But April I dropped from getting over a mil in sales each day to getting 500k on the good days..[/quote] LOL! And you're complaining??? LOL! I get like 30 hits a day and maybe sell 15-20 items on a GOOD day. Many days I only sell 10 items or less. Last fall I was selling 70-100 items a day! My shop profit these days is generally under 20k a day. It's pretty pathetic. :P If I could make 100k a day, heck even 50k a day, I'd think I was in heaven! 0:-)

Oh, Pip, I just looked at your shop. Thanks for the name! LOL! I think it's a great shop! Uncluttered page, plenty of items in stock, and fair prices. I can't see any reason you wouldn't get lots of traffic. :) (Sorry for the double post, I didn't see the shop info reply until after I posted. Oops! :P ) ~ Love books?

[quote]Really? Wow. What do you stock?[/quote] Books, now. Tough category - lots of competition. But that was the space open in the mall I wanted to get in, so I took it. I used to sell weapons and sold a lot more items, but that was also in the fall, so I don't know if it was the category or just the season. I still make more np on weapons than I do on books, even though I'm a book shop. LOL! I keep sticking a few weapons in there just to make a profit. :) ~ Love books?

Hm, maybe it depends on how much hours you play neopets for the restocks. PaintBrush category is also good. You`ll make more than 100k per day on that. But of course, you`ll have to watch the trades every single time instead of the NPC shops. You're in for a surprise.
