Poll Results: The Best Sale

With the holidays quickly approaching it is time to start thinking about sales. They heavily influence where a customer makes their purchase. I conducted a brief poll of 211 participants with different "sale" options to see what was the most favored. Free shipping was the most popular with buy one get one free in a close second. Interesting results to keep in mind if you are a shop owner.

I recently started offering free global shipping for orders over $25 so it looks like I am heading in the right direction.

I hope these results are helpful to you, and be sure to check back next Tuesday for more poll results. If you have any suggestions for future poll results that you would like to see please feel free to leave a comment.

Thank you for reading,

Poll Results: Shipping Turnaround Time

I conducted a survey with 168 participants regarding their desired turnaround times for their orders to be shipped. You can view the results in the above image, and below you can read some of their helpful comments:

"I understand that people don't always have time to ship immediately. So, the Tuesdays and Fridays option. (I'm used to 6 months long waits....)"


"I said other because usually artists have two jobs, a "regular" job and their artwork...if you balance out all of that and life in general, it comes down to when your next free day to go to the post office is

From a business stand point however, and given the way some customers can be absolutely horrible (if it arrives so much as one day later than what you said, they post nasty reviews all over the internet and tell their acquaintances not to buy from you, so on and so forth) I would say Tuesdays and Fridays."


"Well, a shipment asapc would be the best, and by ASAPC I mean "as soon as you possibly can", when you receive the payment etc.
If there is to be a delay, I'd like to know about it, I'd appreciate it!

I hope this was helpful "


"It depends if you pay for shipping. If shipping was free then i wouldn't mind waiting a week or two for it to be shipped, but if i had paid for shipping, especially if it was expensive, then i would expect it to be shipped the next day, or within a few days if it wasn't too expensive.
Hope i helped "

Thank you so much for reading. I hope these results were helpful to you. Be sure to check back next Tuesday for more poll results.

Survery Results: Birthstone Jewelry

I recently conducted a brief survey with 190 participants about their interest in birthstone jewelry. If you take a look at the results it appears that necklaces and rings are the most sought after birthstone jewelry.

So as I am building up my inventory for the upcoming holiday season, I will definitely incorporate these results in my designs. If you have any specific designs you would like to see please feel free to comment here or email me at 1337art@gmail.com

I hope these results are helpful to you, and thank you so much for reading!
