I agree, there has been a lack of Halloween card sales here too.  Hopefully the Christmas Holiday season will be much better for all of us.  Smiley

Well- this October was definately dissappointing compared to last October. My sales dropped in half- in terms of the amount of money I made.

Wow! well I obviously have a lot of work to do. I have been here for months and have very few card sales.
I ant to purchase my own to sell here in a local store but the cost of postage is way to high for international postage charges.
I am going to have to have a serious look at my cards and keywords i think since nothing much is happening at all for me.  Sad
 
Back to the drawing board!!

I haven't been here that long. As far as Halloween cards,  I sold 1 card at my Painted Flower, and 3 at Lady and Spooky.  The Lady and Spooky card was the same image, but 2 were for Halloween Birthdays, separate sales on all 4. I've been working on Valentine's cards for Lady and Spooky, hopefully Valentine's Day will be better for cards. Smiley

TAM,
 
My sales were flat.  Oct = Sept for me.  I don't like to see my growth stop given all the cards I add each month.  I'll post some charts in a separate thread.

Well- I went back and looked at last year's Oct. and I see now why that month was so high- I had that huge bulk sale for the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse Card. I also had a few other smaller bulk purchases that month too. Man- two or three bulk sales can make a huge difference. Shocked

Last year was much better here too, I also attribute it to the the bulk sale I too had from the Cape Hatteras card.  Tammy, did you sell any of that card separately beyond the bulk sale? I sold one or two last month I think.
 
Besides that Cape H. card, all I've sold in the past month are birthday cards and my solstice/equinox series cards.  My one Halloween card got clicks but no sales.
 
So it goes. . .

Hi Tammy, Ernestine and all,
 
My sales weren't great either! However, my candy corn card sold but it is only 1 at a time. Near halloween it struck me that I could make it into an invitation for a halloween party so it would obviously sell more than one at a time! SO, we'll see next year!!!

This is my little, lucky gem! Everyone probably has one card that sells well? Do you have one?  
 
Candy
Hope you're feeling better Tammy.

Candace,
Good point.  I try to do that, make the cards I create into invitations whenever I can.  Two bangs for the buck and a good chance of multiple sales.
