Some of you are familiar with the site HEARTSY where various ETSY shops are featured offering exclusive limited time voucher deals. I tried it out for the first time recently, purchasing a voucher that I used to order custom muslim bags for my merchandise. I can't wait to get them! It got me thinking, at the discount offered by most of the shops, is it truly worth if for the shopowner? It is definitely a great way to get traffic to your shop if you are featured, and although it is not the best way to make a huge profit, hopefully it will bring back repeat customers. So to deal or not to deal? I've decided to give it whirl and see if I can get featured. Help me out by voting "definitely yes" here:
And here's some work found in my shop, both new, renewed & updated:
Voted, I'd love to hear what you think of the whole experience, I am wary of offering this kind of discount.

I will love to hear about too. Hope it will worht for you
ReplyDeleteI voted- hope it works well for you!
ReplyDeleteJust voted "definitely yes" . . . let us know how it works out for you!
ReplyDeleteI tried to vote...not sure if it counted because I couldn't sign in. Well, good luck! Let us know if it ends up being worht it.
ReplyDeleteI say try it once and see how the increase in traffic goes and if it brings any repeat customers.
ReplyDeleteI have decided not to go that route. Just because someone will buy my product at a discount, does not mean they will come back and buy at full price. And my prices are already as low as I can go. Good luck though, that is just my perspective!
ReplyDeleteGood luck Leah...I will head over and vote now!
ReplyDeleteVoted!! I just heard back from Heartsy and will be featured next week sometime. It is a tough decision, but it is about what your goals are. I THINK I have it set up to make profit, not a huge profit like I am used too, but this is the cost of marketing. Fingers crossed for a great marketing experience with Heartsy
ReplyDeleteGalla, please let me know how it works out for you. I hope I get the opportunity. I THINK it may be worthwhile as well.....
ReplyDeleteVoted for ya. I am interested in hearing how your experience goes. I have wondered the same things about profit potential. I have been waffling on whether to give it a try or not!
ReplyDeleteVoted! :) I hope it goes well for you. I figure it is more about exposure than profit.
ReplyDeleteI'd love to hear about your experience as well! I think it would be more about exposure too.
ReplyDeletebeautiful work! I am partial to the pearls. :-)
