First of all: Can someone please move this thread to the "sales, marketing..."-section? I can't post there, don't know why.

Hey guys,

I guess I'm not the only person with this kind of problem and I already googled it a bit, but I really value your opinion, so here we go:

I started marketing my product on social media in december. It's in the jewelry/accessoires niche and one week ago, I started taking pre-orders with 30% off future retail price. I have fans, I have people telling me that they like my product and people asking for the price and where to buy. But in the end, they all stay fans and not customers.

My website looks good for a pre-order page, it's a customized shopify theme. Social media is automated, don't have to worry about that. My social media account gets an exposure of at least ~1000 users a day and is growing every day, but my problem remains.

Is it just too early to expect big sales? Are the people afraid to pre-order because they have to wait 3 months till delivery?

Maybe you guys have some tips how to convert my fans into customers.


Have a great week,
V
