Overview of the Etsy print on demand shop
The shop we will be reviewing is called the Tired Parents Store. Upon visiting the shop, we immediately notice its attractive banner design that reads, "Every day around midnight, I'm shocked to find out it's only 6 p.m." This humorous design appeals to both parents and non-parents alike. We also discover that the shop is based in New Jersey, contrary to our earlier assumption based on the currency symbol.
Review of the shop's design and mock-ups
The Tired Parents Store impresses us with its well-executed designs and attention to detail. The shop utilizes videos in its product listings, allowing customers to see the design on various mock-ups. This engaging feature enhances the shopping experience, especially when hovering over the designs. The mock-ups used by the shop are visually appealing and effectively showcase the products. The use of different color schemes and font pairings adds to the professionalism of the designs.
Analyzing the pricing strategy
One aspect that caught our attention is the pricing strategy of the Tired Parents Store. While the shop offers a range of products, such as shirts, sweatshirts, and long sleeves, the prices seem to be on the higher side. For example, a sweatshirt is priced at $48. As a suggestion, the shop could consider running occasional sales or offering competitive pricing, especially considering its current number of sales. All sales are final due to the custom printed nature of the items.
Improvements in product listings
Upon reviewing the individual product listings, we notice a few areas where the shop can make improvements. Firstly, the product descriptions could benefit from shorter, more concise sentences. Additionally, capitalizing the letters and using dividers or punctuation can enhance readability. Online tools like Convert Case can easily help with proper capitalization.
Utilizing customization and competitive pricing
The Tired Parents Store offers customization options, allowing customers to personalize their purchases. This is an excellent strategy for new Etsy shops to attract sales by providing additional value and offering competitive prices. As a newer shop with a low number of sales, the shop might consider adjusting the price of custom shirts to attract more customers. Gradually increasing prices over time can be done as the shop gains more visibility and regular sales.
Exploring niche validation with the Sales Samurai extension
To assist in validating the shop's niches on Etsy, we recommend using the Sales Samurai Chrome extension. By inputting relevant keywords, such as "CrossFit Mom," the extension provides valuable insights on related search volume and competition. It suggests popular phrases and keywords that the shop can incorporate into its product discovery process and listings. This tool helps determine the level of competition for specific niches and provides a measure of search volume for each keyword.
Enhancing designs and font readability
While the Tired Parents Store has commendable designs overall, we suggest improving font readability, particularly on some mock-ups. Clear and legible fonts enhance the overall appeal and professionalism of the designs. Ensuring that fonts adhere to the contours of the product, especially on shirt mock-ups, can create a more natural and visually pleasing appearance.
Optimizing mock-ups for a natural appearance
Some mock-ups used by the shop appear to be overlaid on the product, rather than conforming to its contours. We recommend striving for a more natural and seamless integration between the design and the product. By achieving a more realistic look, customers can better visualize the final product, which can positively impact their purchase decisions.
Review of overall shop performance and room for improvement
The Tired Parents Store demonstrates great potential, with attractive designs and a wide range of product offerings. While the shop has done an excellent job overall, there are areas for improvement, such as pricing, font readability, and mock-up integration. By making these adjustments and seeking inspiration from top-performing Etsy listings, the shop can further enhance its performance and attract more sales.
