[b]Chapter Four: Getting Customers[/b]
So, let's say your trade shop is sweet and green and all ready to go! Now...you've met a problem. Where the heck are you going to get customers?

First of all, if a shop has good enough stock/content, customers should come by themselves. If you keep your stocks refilled, you will most definitely have some customers.

Still here are several tips on attracting customers:

1. Take advantange of that bump period.

You should take advantage of the bump period. It's only two days. Bump every two days then! Most people are more likely to come to you because you're more towards the top of the forum. ALWAYS bump.

2. Come up with a good name.

As silly as that sounds...using emojis, correct punctuation, and short but descriptive words will attract customers. People like seeing neat things. They assume if the title is neat, then the shop is neat. They assume that if the title is fancy, then the shop is fancy. Even thoug there is a saying that is 'Don't Judge a Book By It's Cover', lots of people still do.

3. Refill your stocks.

Some people may subscribe to your shop but will probably silence their notifications...which may lead to them forgetting about your shop altogether. So you have to make a good impression. You should have plentiful stocks at any time of the day. Refilling stocks mean happy customers, which means more profit!

4. Try to answer as quickly as possible.

Fast service equal happy customers, which means they're more likely to come back. Try to be fast. Try to be online every two to three days. Customers like feedback immediately.

5. Use fancy templates.

Free to use templates are far and few, but make a quick stop the 'Other Art' forum and you should find a couple usable! I'm recently learning CSS and may release a couple F2U templates by the way! More on templates will be explained later.

Grabbing customers should be easy as long as your shop has good stock and updates often!
