very discuraging . . . by wildlight

im not doing as good as i thought, my etsy shop has been open for a while now and i havent made a single sale, and i really need the money, but i guess no one really appreciates art unless its free, it was my plan to be a professional fursuit/things like that maker, though it looks like my stuff is good enough to look at, but not worth it to buy it, this is all im good at, *sigh* if after a few months i dont sell anything, i have no choice

I'd love to buy your stuff, but unfortunately, I don't have the money. Just keep your chin up! I'm sure it's just because no one has heard of you yet!

Give it time, your buisness won't just boom in a few days. It's gonna take a while.

I agree with Golden! Every person starts at 0, so don't be depressed quite yet!
I seriously would love to buy a fursuit from you, but I would never wear it xP Maybe you should advertise your shop and visit other people's shops who might be interested in a fursuit!
You can't back down yet or you'll miss your chance! Be strong! :D

Hey, you just have the to keep going! Persistence is key! I know from personal experience that it can take a little while (I waited a month or 2 for my first sale!).

P.S. If you'd like, I could sell stuff for ya' at Tosho. It...wouldn't help save for the fursuit, I guess, but it would help get your stuff out there for future projects...I think that's what's helped me the most! ^-^
