Are to many items in an Etsy Shop to much? That is my great debate with my shop right now. I have the one shop that has everything from my all natural body products, upcycled aprons and bags, vintage books, supplies that I have been given but will never use and now add in all my crocket/knit winter items.... wow that is a lot. Before I add in all the winter warmth items, I am at over 300 for sale items and that isn't all of the aprons and bags! So my am in the thought process of creating a 2nd shop for vintage/supplies and maybe the upcycled items to help cut down on the high numbers in one shop. I get tons of views everyday but I am thinking they are overwhelmed by the large amount of items to sort through that they buy from another shop. Any thoughts from other shop owners?

I sell very different sorts of things, too--not as varied as you but handmade chocolates, vintage linens, other vintage, occasionally some upcycled stuff. I have chosen to stick with one shop because a) I don't want the organizational hassles of having two shops and b) I tell myself that it's fun for shoppers to have variety. Is that how they see it? I don't know. I'll be interested to hear what others say on the subject!
ReplyDeleteI had split my shop on Etsy for the very same reason...thinking that too much was going on ....for almost 1.5 to 2 years I managed two shops, it was too much work but I couldn't decide on to merge them back. Then we moved from Dallas to Singapore!..and now I'm starting over, I have merged it all, I like to do a lot of stuff... that's me! I'll be opening my shop soon with all kinds of different stuff, as I know how hard it is to manage two accounts and honestly I don't believe that it makes any difference if you have two shops instead of one (tried & tested) just because of the fear of too much variety. Just my two cents!
