While sales are up, the creator acknowledges other factors. They increased listings by 97 items over the month (an average of 3 extra listings daily), which is not considered a significant enough increase alone to explain the sales spike. More impactful was the introduction of coupons, a new strategy that has shown high conversion rates for sales. The creator advises experimenting with different coupon types and durations to find what works best.
