Continuing

Things continue to be very slow. In fact, none of my metrics are doing well.

So what are my metrics?
- Mailing list growth (from about 5/day to 1-2/day)

- Facebook page growth (www.facebook.com/makeupdealoftheday), grew by 5 today after I sent out probably 50 recommendations to my friends list

- sales (probably haven't sold anything in a week. Shopping cart was broken for at least 12 hours and both people decided to not purchase after I fixed it.)

Those are my current top metrics.

Further, participation in the contest that seemed like such an exciting idea, has bordered on pathetic. 32 responses. That's it. For $200 worth of makeup. If it were me, I'd be all over it like a dog on a pork chop. I can't fathom what I'm doing wrong, but I figured the response would be in the 100's.

Maybe I'm on my way to a dot-bomb. :-(

Today is the two week anniversary of my web site launch. Woo.
