I use keywords and tags that are specific and close to products on my shop, www.sewmanythingsandmore.net . I’m thinking of rebranding or renaming my business too. I do still sew a lot of things and handmake items but my store is becoming more drop shipping options. How do I get more traffic/sales from specific audiences? IE, horse rescues, women veterans, people looking for handmade craft items/jewelry?

I have ran ads on Facebook, Google and Instagram/Threads. I can’t afford to run them on TikTok because I am a super small, one woman business. Any help is appreciated!
