thoughts are as with anything faire rolls out - give it a try, maybe there will be a nice boost in the algorithm for you in taking part. Test it and see how you go, as long as it's profitable for you. Another one that we may or may not see here in Europe, we still don't even have top shop yet!
@@CandidFounders do you think not having top shop affects sales in the US? Or do you think top shop is nice to have but not a very necessary component for a boost?
@@rebelandsiren Yeah good question, we are generally weighted towards UK anyway because of shipping times, and most of our acquisition is focussed on the UK. Whether retailers look at it and expect to see top shop I don't know, but I think the algorithm will favour US brands that have top shop status over those that don't, but I assume (and hope) the algorithm can't not favour us for not having it because its not something we can get yet! However I think it might be coming to us soon so we will see what it changes for us :)
Ahhh the instagram thing. It’s so hard as an artist to not feel like you need to post everyday but as you said, wholesale is where it’s at and this rings true for my stickers. I need to take your advice once again and focus even more on wholesale and less on the igs and TikTok’s. makes so much sense. ❤ thank you once again!
instagram feels a bit dead to be honest, we still aim to post once a twice a week to keep it looking up to date when new people hit our page but it's not making enough sales to warrant spending loads of time on there!
Perfect timing! I was just removing some of my seasonal products from my site and considering adding a new line a retailer requested. I was concerned about having too many skus. This and all the other tips in here are super helpful ❤️❤️❤️☀️💎🌷😀
Thanks Lucy for the reminders! In the US we got hit with the new Faire Insider Partnership rolling out in August...thoughts?
Got this in Canada too! Super excited I think?? I’d like to know thoughts too! ❤

@@CandidFounders very interested to know if you will notice an uptick in sales!
