This is a consultation from an artist who decided to "get serious about their work" in November 2020. "There is a gap between the works I want to sell and the works that have sold, and although I have tried everything I can, the number of hits is not increasing."... I explained to him the areas where he was not taking enough action. ▼Minne, Japan's largest mail-order site for handmade and hand-crafted items, by GMO Pepabohttps://bit.ly/3wLIy9x ▼For those who want to sell their handmade works onlinehttps://bit.ly/3wKTXX7 ▼Table of contents00:00 Introduction of questions02:24 Gallery introduction and impressions06:36 ① Current situation analysis11:18 ② Breaking down into goals18:56 ③ Key point: "Photos"20:52 Summary◆Please watch this along with today's video◆ ▼Question 56 "20 images on minne now!

I enjoy listening to Oha Lab. Thank you for always sharing your helpful stories. I have a question for you. I registered with minne for about 1-2 years. I love handmade crafts and have occasionally exhibited my works until now. However, from November 7, 2020, I decided to get serious about it and have been doing it ever since. The reason I got serious about it from November is because I became ill and was unable to work. Thanks to the kindness of an acquaintance, I was introduced to a work-from-home job and am working as an artist while doing that. If I were to work from home, I would like to seriously work on my beloved handmade crafts. However, the number of visitors to the gallery has been in the single digits. People have made purchases up until now, but they are followers of another Twitter account. (People I have actually met) But once they buy something, they don't buy it again, and they don't become repeat customers. I think they bought it out of kindness. I'm at a loss because I don't get people who don't know me to buy it. I've made various improvements to my photos and writing after seeing Oha Lab, but I still don't get many hits and I don't get any likes. When I asked a friend about it, he told me, "I want you to set a deadline of six months for your handmade activities and get serious about working from home and work more." Do I have no talent for handmade? My resolve is wavering. I've sold earrings and accessories, but the animal works I want to make the most aren't selling. I'm still not sure what to do. I get anxious when I think it's going to be six months. If my request is accepted, please give me your harsh opinions and criticisms. This is a long message, but thank you very much. * * "Good Morning! minne LAB" is the official video distribution service that minne delivers to artists who are working on crafts.
