Help! Nothing is selling!

I am totally new to the ebay platform and would love some advice on what I need to do or change to start bringing in sells. I feel like I have a good amount of listings but nothing is really happening. I hardly have that many views on each item. I am very open to advice on what to tweak or change completely. I would love for this platform to work for me. Thanks!

Re: Help! Nothing is selling!

I thought this listing was really awesome because the white background drew me to it. Make all your listings this bright white background on at least the main listing photo. Now, think about changing your user name to say what you do for people, or what unique username can you invent that makes people click on you, because all buyers want to know everything about the trendy sellers they buy from are doing! link; https://www.ebay.com/itm/J-Crew-Sz-S-Women-Cheetah-Print-Long-Sleeve-Button-Down-Cotton-Pajama-Set/3...

Do not sell clothing... That’s the best advice anyone can give you.

Re: Help! Nothing is selling!

To be clear:

No Returns does NOT mean No Refunds.

 

If you refuse a return from an unhappy customer, he may end up with the item and his payment.

 

No Returns is unfriendly and ineffective.

 

Also shipping.

You can ship 13 oz across the country for $6.50 by First Class Package and for $8.30 by Priority (which includes a free box).

That's a stock photo.  Still, the OP's photos are quite good and she's selling well and regularly.

Hi.  You may or may not know you are registered in the eBay GSP program.  There are some (many?) foreign buyers that simply avoid those kind of listings (for various reasons)   Yes the program "protects" you the seller by only holding you responsible to getting the package to Kentucky USA however, I can assure you that it also limits your world-wide sales.
