Is it normal to dont have sale right away?

Topic summary

A new store owner launched their online shop a few days ago and promoted it through TikTok. Despite seeing traffic to their site, they haven’t made any sales yet and are seeking advice.

Community Response:

  • This is a normal experience for new e-commerce stores
  • Having a website and ad spend doesn’t automatically generate sales
  • The “traffic but no sales” issue is extremely common and widely discussed in forums

Recommended Actions:

  • Search existing forum discussions about “traffic no sales” for solutions
  • Conduct proper research, as millions of stores face identical challenges
  • Post in more relevant forums (the current post was tagged with POS hardware, which relates to physical retail point-of-sale systems rather than online store issues)
  • Use appropriate tags to increase chances of getting helpful responses

The discussion remains open with no specific resolution provided yet.

I just started my store a few days ago and have advertised my store through tiktok. I have saw people coming into my store but I did not see any sale. Any advice would help greatly. Thank you.

Yes normal, having a website or adspend is not magic it’s so cliché you should search the forums for it: " traffic no sales"

It’s a rampant problem in the feedback forum stemming for lack of self awareness that millions of other stores have the exact same problems so not doing any proper research : https://community.shopify.com/category/ecommerce-gallery

you should request your post be moved to a more relevant forum if this has nothing to do with a brick and mortar store or actual POS hardware.

If you post willy-nilly you drastically decreases the chances you will get any relevant answers.

And adding completely irrelevant tags is a good way to just get ignored.
