Introduction

Hello everyone! Last year, I did an income report video to showcase my progress. Now, I want to share with you the achievements I've made over the past year and the sales performance of the last month. Working part-time, I am excited to share the significant growth my shop has experienced. In this article, I will provide you with a detailed analysis of various aspects of my business, including visits, orders, conversion rate, revenue, traffic sources, Printful statistics, and profit.

Overview of Income Report

In this section, we will dive deep into the key metrics of my shop's performance. I will provide a comprehensive overview of the progress made in terms of visits, orders, conversion rate, and overall revenue.

Increase in Visits

One of the most crucial indicators of business growth is the number of visits received. In the past month, my shop recorded a total of 7,563 visits, marking a significant increase of 63% compared to the same period last year. This growth can be attributed to various factors, including improved marketing strategies, enhanced product visibility, and a focus on attracting organic traffic.

Increase in Orders

The number of orders placed is a vital factor in measuring the success of an online business. In the last month, my shop experienced a remarkable increase of 248% in orders, with a total of 345 orders. This surge in orders can be attributed to the diligent efforts put into optimizing product listings, enhancing the customer shopping experience, and providing top-notch customer service.

Improvement in Conversion Rate

Conversion rate plays a crucial role in determining the effectiveness of a business's marketing and sales funnel. It indicates the percentage of visitors who successfully make a purchase. I am delighted to report that my shop's conversion rate experienced a significant boost of 113%, reaching an impressive 4.6%. This improvement can be attributed to the implementation of strategies such as high-quality professional mock-ups and comprehensive product information.

Revenue Comparison

Revenue is the ultimate measure of business success. In the month of November, my shop generated a total revenue of $12,069.70, showcasing an impressive increase of 227% compared to the same period last year. It is important to note that this figure represents gross revenue before deducting material costs and fees.

Traffic Sources

Understanding where the majority of our traffic comes from is essential for optimizing marketing efforts. In my case, 88% of the visits to my shop were brought in by Etsy itself, either through the Etsy app or other Etsy pages. This indicates the importance of ranking organically and optimizing product listings to attract visitors. Additionally, it is worth mentioning that direct organic traffic from other sources increased by 64%, highlighting the effectiveness of our SEO efforts.

Printful Statistics

As a print-on-demand provider, Printful plays a significant role in fulfilling the orders placed on my shop. In the month of November, the average fulfillment time for Printful was two and a half days, which is commendably quick. Printful successfully fulfilled 321 orders, marking an impressive 108% increase compared to the previous period. It is important to note that the order count on Etsy might be slightly different due to different print providers and shipping time variations.

Fulfillment Time and Order Count

This section provides an in-depth analysis of the fulfillment time and order count, breaking down different variables that affect them. It is crucial to understand the efficiency of order fulfillment and the impact it has on customer satisfaction. By maintaining a quick fulfillment time and optimizing the order count, my shop has successfully enhanced the overall shopping experience.

Total Profit Analysis

Profit analysis is a fundamental aspect of any business, as it provides valuable insights into the financial performance. For the month of November, my shop earned a total profit before Etsy fees of $4,469.55, showcasing a notable increase of 112% compared to the previous period. However, it is important to mention that this figure does not include the profit from 24 orders that were fulfilled with other providers. Once these orders are factored in, the total profit will be updated accordingly.

Popular Products

Analyzing the popularity of different products helps in generating insights about customer preferences. In my shop, 81% of the orders were for sweatshirts, with the majority being the Gildan 18,000 and Gildan 18500. T-shirts accounted for 18% of the orders, while drinkware made up a mere 0.1%. It is essential to focus on the products that resonate with the target audience while considering diversification opportunities for future growth.

Conclusion

In conclusion, the past month has been a period of substantial growth for my shop. The increase in visits, orders, conversion rate, and revenue highlights the effectiveness of our strategies and the dedication we put into creating high-quality listings. By leveraging organic traffic, optimizing Printful fulfillment, and carefully analyzing profit, we have managed to achieve significant progress. However, it is important to continually refine our approach, adapt to market trends, and focus on delivering exceptional customer experiences.
