Change your store name. "Bricks on the Dollar" is the name of another
fairly large BrickLink store: https://store.bricklink.com/Ctbyrne

I'm wondering this too, there is no other way to advertise really, other
than posting in the marketplace, right?

You can promote your store through other channels (social media, etc). But without
much stock it's hard to generate sales in the first place.

Increase your available lots by 5-8x.

Increase your average lot size by 50x.

You don't really have a lot of parts and a quick glance shows just 1-2x of
the bricks and they're all used.

On top of that, your prices on some of the minifigs are extremely high. SW0747
for example, you're SALE price is still $40 over what new ones are going
for. You can keep the price and play the long game and probably get that, but
you're here asking how to increase your sales so I assume you want to move
some of this stuff.

And change your store name. It closely matches another larger well known store.
