Congratulations! What a great experience for your children.

You have a nice assortment of bricks. Do you use the Notify process? I think
it’s helped me.

Congratulations on your new store.

Everything looks good to me. The normal advice is that adding more inventory
promotes more sales.

Something I did that I think helped, is I gave a discount coupon to buyers who
left positive feedback, to encourage repeat business. You might try that.

Repeat business is important. You will get that as over time you establish a
reputation for excellent customer service.

I love the idea of involving the kids. Good luck!

It is a bit time consuming at the start and a bit more involved than you think
but it’s fun and I’ve enjoyed chatting with new people- sellers and buyers.

I found that lowering your prices boost your amount of sales when you’re small.
But more than that it’s important to just keep listing.
That’s my 2 cents.
