When summer started to slow down, I was waiting for fall to kick in for better business. Not only did it not happen, sales got worse throughout Nov. & Dec. Jan. does not look like it will be any better. Good luck to us all. 🙂

I was getting 12 or more sales a day until 2 days ago. Within the last 2 days I've gotten 4 sales total and not one question on 150 listed items.

Has happened every January since the...beginning of online commerce?
Let's see:
1. High Inflation
2. Fake supply shortage driving up prices for corporate profit.
3. Stock & Crypto markets on the edge
4. Winter weather heating bills
5. Wages not keeping up with said inflation
6. No Stimulus
7. No extra child care stimulus as of 12/31/21
8. High gas prices
9. Evictions approaching a record pace
10. Foreclosures & Bankruptices set to explode again (a la 2008)
11. Interest rate hikes coming (those credit cards will be approaching 30-40% interest)
12. Oh by the way, in case everyone forgot there's a pandemic with no relief or end in sight.
So yeah, sales are down. Won't pick up again until something gives.

Maybe run a promotion sale or do a coupon? See if that jump-starts some sales?
