Why isn’t anyone buying my 50% off items?

Hi, What am I doing wrong? I have quality antiques and vintage items. In addition, selling designer clothing, paintings, sculptures, and other items. Posted in the promotions forum. I had a 40% off sale and nothing happened. Now I changed it to 50% off and still nothing. Is it something I’m doing wrong?

Hi, don’t think your doing anything WRONG, I too am sufferring here, no sales so far. I am beginning to believe we DO have to promote our items. I was on rtsy also and I think it is getting to be the same there. Sorry about you luck on the 50% off deal.

What about the promotions forum? Over 200 people saw that at 50% Off. Do I need to make it 53%

@Glodeo Even when I was promoting my items several times a day, everyday, my sales were pretty much nonexistent.

Unfortunately, it is just that time of year. Summer months are always slow at every online location, but, they should pick back up closer to August or possibly for Christmas in July sales. Good Luck!

Thanks, Fantastic Finds2014. I noticed that over 200 people saw my post in promotions…that’s what made me wonder. Thank you, again.

Have you been promoting your booth on social media?
At Bonanza you have to do your own promoting.

So true! Make a page on Facebook that links to you booth here. Post some of your best things on Pinterest. Post on Instagram and Twitter!

I’m on Pinterest. I’m in my 60s and have no interest in Instagram or Twitter. My initial question was about the over 200 views in the promotion forum for 50% off and no response. Thank you for your input, as I really appreciate it.
