what were your marketing strategies at the time ?


A little bit of social media (twitter posts, product page on FB), and a big push via Google AdWords at Easter and Christmas. Sales tended to be fairly seasonal so we focused on those periods.

Also, spent a lot of time getting the meta tags on every product page exactly right - which I felt (at the time) was the benefit of rolling my own shop front-end instead of using one of the pre-made big name shop engines.
