IQ Labs: Innovative Solutions with a Smart Approach
Today we’re diving into IQ Labs, a standout store from Mission Viejo, California, with over 6,200 sales! That’s an impressive number, and it’s clear that David over at IQ Labs knows how to run a smooth operation. The first tip I’d recommend is adding a header image to the store. It’s a great way to create a more branded look and, if you have a website, you can include the URL in the header for extra exposure. With over 100 items in the shop, that’s also a big plus—lots of products means more chances to show up in search results!
IQ Labs specializes in practical accessories, from car headset hooks to dishwasher door stops, and these functional products are the kind of everyday solutions that customers love. One product that stood out to me was the dishwasher door arrest tool—such a clever fix for a common problem! The product photos are on point, showing exactly how it works. There’s even a video demo, which is great since Etsy loves video content for promoting listings on TikTok and other platforms. A product like this doesn’t need multiple colors, though—most customers are likely going to choose black, as it’s functional and sleek.
Speaking of product pricing, the dishwasher door stop is listed at $7 plus shipping. One thing to consider is building the shipping cost into the price and offering free shipping. While it might seem like a small change, Etsy rewards sellers who offer free shipping by boosting their rankings in search results. You could price this item around $12 with free shipping, which would still feel like a fair deal to customers while helping you stand out in searches.
Overall, IQ Labs is running a great shop with strong reviews and top-notch product photos. David’s clearly doing a fantastic job designing functional products and running the business efficiently. If you’re looking for ways to lighten the load, outsourcing some of the printing and shipping could be a game-changer. With options like Slant 3D, you could automate the fulfillment process for certain products, freeing up more time to focus on customer service and new designs. Keep up the amazing work, IQ Labs is on the right track!
