So...I've had a business on facebook before which was going really well until I started having problems with a few people spamming with nasty comments and then it was too much with my tafe course so I shut down.
But now I have started up a new one and I'm not having the same success. I've advertised on facebook which cost me $23 (was meant to be $10 but the ad didn't turn off!) and I have only made ONE sale. I've had it open for about 3 weeks now. I've recently put up a giveaway for one $25 voucher and 4 $15 vouchers to the store and the people just have to suggest their friends to enter. As a way to get some sales as well as more interest...
I can't exactly change my prices at the moment considering the debt I'm in with my parents etc
Should probably mention that I'm 19 (nearly 20) and cannot get a job so that's why I thought starting my own business would be good! But nope...
I don't exactly have any friends I can ask for help either which is another dead end.
I probably went wrong with my order choices to begin with but I can't change that now and I need to make sales. Obviously when I start to sell I can order in some amazing things that I've been searching for (I can't help it!)
I sell womens fashions - clothing, shoes & accessories and I have looked into popular sites for advertisement but I can't afford or risk $100 for a little box on a webpage right now...
It's also called Atulya, it's an Indian name meaning unique and uncomparable.
You can view my 'shop' here: (Even join, suggest and perhaps buy something too yeah!? ;D haha)

So I ask you lovely random people for some help and advice on how I can get more sales! Especially with a limited advertising budget!
