I have had a booth for about a month and have not yet had sale. Several items have between 20 and 50 views. How long did it take before others started seeing sales

I saw a few of your items in google product search (Google shopping-GPS) so you have opted for the advertising option..(though I saw that there were over 50 of the same item there from various other places also..using the same stock photos…so lots of competition…might want to try to dress up those photos to make them stand out…personally I find stock photos a turn off…)
Have you promoted your booth in any way..tweeted, if you have a Facebook business page..use the bonz items app to list your items, do you have a pinterest board…
Unlike ebay/amazon, people do not come here to browse, they come here because they find your listings in searches and decide to visit…listing and waiting will not work for bonanza at this time…
IF you are listed somewhere else, then if your buyers find you there then they will not bother to come looking here..
Google likes good established first..1 month is hardly enough time to build a reputation…
Now to answer your [URL removed] my first booth (specialized items) took about a week, but that was only because a return buyer asked if I was going to list on ebay…and I said NO, and gave them my booth address…after that I had more sales here…
My second booth, a different kind of more general purpose booth, took about 6 months before it started receiving consistent sales…for some it never takes off, for others they do quite well…
My third booth never had consistency and I combined the items to another booth and closed it after about 18 months…
Good Luck
and Welcome to Bonanza

Remember these tips:
- Use links to other sources to support your opinions
- Use examples where possible
- Put yourself in the inquirers shoes: what extra info would be helpful?
Should I post a comment or an answer?
You can only post one answer, so make it count. Maybe your reply is more fitting as a comment instead?
Post an answer for:
- Replies that directly and specifically answer the original question
Post a comment for:
- "Thanks," "Me too," "I agree," or "Works for me" types of replies
- When you would like the original poster to provide more details
- When you have more to add to someone else's question or answer
